Sizematters Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Hey guys i was just wondering if it was even possible to turbo my ford fiesta 1.6 metal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jethro_Tull Posted December 24, 2017 Share Posted December 24, 2017 Very possible. In fact, Ford themselves already have, and they called it ST. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roooney96 Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Everything is possible but it would be a lot of custom work.. You can get a supercharger for the 1.6 ti-vct which would be easier to do. I've thought about this for my Metal aswell but in the end it's better to wait and buy an ST in a year or so and just do mods for your Metal that can be transferred to the ST (Suspension, wheels, brakes, engine mount etc) 13 hours ago, Jethro_Tull said: Very possible.

Completely different engines unfortunately haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jethro_Tull Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Different in detail, but its fundamentally the same basic motor and block. Manifold and turbo would indeed bolt right up, but you couldn't run much boost without doing something about the CR, and then there's the various solutions to the problem of engine management. Its certainly very feasible, but with several different and very fine turbo Fiestas available off the shelf, it'd be easier, cheaper and quicker to trade to a model with a blower.
