My mapper wants to try one on it, they’ve been raving about them for the money Very good piece of kit He wants to build a new loom so makes sense to upgrade the ecu while at it with something more up to date

Time to play catch up on here sorry Alittle prep/ painting done on modified bonnet release cable bracket ( this’ll be mounted towards the n/s headlight ) Black rivets found Modified bonnet cable Armed with the new modified bonnet cable courtesy of Ford RS Spence Spares Old one removed, new one fitted Custom bracket put in its place... holes marked, drilled, bracket riveted on... Alittle heat protection put on just to stop any catching but all looks good Works perfect, should be just the job... So much happier now the bonnet cable issues should be put to rest forever Had so much grief since fitting the first tubular exhaust manifold It’s just been kick after kick in the Looks really good fitted, very oem imo

Just read the whole thread, I know when a thread gets me hooked when I start searching for the car its about in gumtree, ebay etc. Can't believe the prices for Orions now. Need details of how the new ECU affects drivability over the old system.

Nice one. I bet that's a handful. I found on previous escorts 210bhp was lively enough.

As I've always said, stunning car. Awesome result on the mapping! Seems now the power is a match for the awesome looks!

It was about time it was mapped to its full potential in its current spec Next upgrades will be hybrid turbo, injectors and I’ll have to finally upgrade the gearbox I think... Don’t think the bc cts stage 2 will take all the abuse Still got everything here to convert to Mk1 Focus RS Mtx75
