1989 Ford Escort RS Turbo review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
A couple of hoses split under the bonnet, nothing much else as of yet...
General comments?
This car is an excellent platform for tuning, and will easily shame many a so-called high-performance cars. I'm currently running 20PSI of boost, and with many other mods, it's putting out over 200 BHP.
