Eck....they go pop when 18yr old lads wind up the boost and dont uprate anything  Done properly they go forever, my cousin had one at something like 260bhp and it went for years with no problems, cost a fortune tho

i've owned a 5gt turbo they are shit, i've owned an escort rs turbo, the standard suspension and ride of them is crap, so if you plan on getting one set aside £700 for a suspension aswell as the car price, i've driven a punto gt turbo, nippy little things, but feel too rolly for my liking.
or sell your spleen, pancreas and one fo your lungs and just buy a sierra cossie 4x4 turbo

a GSi sounds alot better than an RS Turbo, it just sounds like a nova with a dumpvalve

I love Fords!
But if you look at same power RST's to me, they can't get the 1/4 mile times my Corsa does, and they got an LSD on the box (all be it crap, but better than mine!).
Like venom says, get a Cossie! I was going to before I found my car!

Not at all!
Odd really, but I've mates with them and I much prefer the kick of mine, which I never thought I would say! Cossies used to feel fast, now they just don't kick like the corsa.
Even when I went out in a 4x4 low comp T34 running greys (circa 380-400bhp, holding 30ish psi) it felt smooth compared to mine! And surprisingly I beat it down the duel carrageway too!
If the Corsa went sideways it'd be perfect!
Still getting a cossie next, but it will have to be RWD, and running the tried and tested T4, 8 greens etc.. or a GT35 and 4 huge injectors. Needs to be 500bhp+ to be a worthwhile step up I think!
The Corsa is such an involved drive (keeping it on the road in a straight line!), and I'd need the Cossie to be just like that, or I'd get bored I think.

its actually mercury grey
Bit rusty on the old fords but from what i rember the escort RST is more better to tune than the FRST as it uses Bosch K jettronic fuel injection oposed to the EFi system on the FRST
also match it to a zetec bottom end for a ZVH conversion pioneered by Ian Howorth and your laughing
