Chris find the ECU, if it has a chip plugged into it then its not standard. Also have a look at the injectors, blue I think are standard for the fiesta turbo management, next stage up are beiges.

I know a lot about all this lot as my Escort was running Fiesta turbo management. I'm guessing if yours is on standard injectors I reckon it will be running about 180bhp

Cheers for that, Will the Chip be inside the ECU ?

Apparently its meant to be about 185 BHP.

Here's last nights pics

Im more shocked that nobody guessed it after the very first pic :shocked: :shocked: :grin:

Some of us did, but have only just seen the thread. :wink:

Real or not it still looks class. :cool: Love it and as soundillusion said, if it was a real one you probably wouldn't want to drive it anyway.
