Drop a turbo in it? Why not buy an XR5??
Check out www.european-parts.net. They have an awesome selection of things to jazz up your car. And there's a lot of things you can put on it to make it look better than an XR5.

I reckon:
a) Rims
b) Cold air intake
c) Body kit + Lowering springs
d) Twin cat-backs
e) Headlights/Tailights

And maybe a bit later on hire BlackLS to do your dash and console lights for you ;) (see link - http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...4&page=1&pp=25)

If you want to Turbo, sell the Zetec and buy an XR5 2nd hand. End of story. It's far cheaper and way better than any Zetec turbo.

Otherwise, the above post is a great one for some sensible mods without incurring too much cost.
