Holy crap, talk about torque.. I would have never thought a stock escort engine could make that kinda power reliably. Nice dyno, Nice setup.. Definatly something you wouldnt suspect from a car like that.

I've been boosting the crap out of these motor's for about 2 years now. So far the only problem I have had was a timing belt tentioner comeing loose at 5000RPM's while at about 8psi allowing the valve to kiss the piston, beside that these little motors just keep on going.
