Yo, I gotta friend with a 2000 Ford Escort, and he's been talking about swapping the engine out of my old 93 pro. He was wanting to know what turbo kits are made for the engine, and how much, and if someone can get me some links for him to look up stuff. Thanks

theres no turbo kits made for the car. You either have to piece it together, using custom made or GTR/X parts, or just buy the whole gtr or gtx engine. I think theres a company "thinking" about making a turbo kit for the 1st gens.....but we dont get that much love so it may not be happening very soon.Eat ****.

the BP came turbo'd in europe in 88-94 iirc. they were called the 323 GTX, ther is a rarer engine known as the GTR.
i would suggest e-bay, look up "mazda front clip". you are looking for a BPTWhen you turn your car on... does it return the favor?

So his engine he goosed
With much too much boost,
And drove a rod through his block.

Seems like it would be a pain in the ass to swap a BP-t into an Escort that wasn't designed to have it. Its not a 90-96 E-GT or E-LX we're talking about.Ryan The middle child is always ignored

dumb question,,,2000 escorts have zetec right? if so why dont he save some cash and turbo charge the zetec....and being "ford" im sure jackson makes some kind of factory friendly supercharger for it.According to my Anger Management Counselor, after 26 weeks of anger management class, I should be an expert when it comes to Anger Management...tell that to the guy who threw a starburst at my car in rush hour traffic...haha
