Or not . Saw a red one on the highway here in Hobart. SA plates, factory bodykit, but then I saw the stickers on the doors - Apexi, Blitz etc. Topped off with a bonnet scoop. Oh dear.

Havent seen it getting around. Most of them are stock in Adelaide with only a handful of Zetecs. There's a Moondust Silver one near a mates place with a bit of work and an unusual spoiler that sits at the base of the rear window.

It depends on how much power you're chasing, for to simply have a functional, turbocharged Fiesta, it would cost alot less then $10,000.

the reason for the large quote is becuase, noone has done a turbo job on a fez in this country. So your turbo techie would be essentially going blind while building, alot of testing, ALOT of time which all costs MONEY! The $10k isnt for parts, id say 80% of that i for labour.

You can for a simply turbo kit for not alot of money using OE parts from other cars. A guy in the UK got 150kw with standard internals. Will come in ALOT less than 10g
