Yeah, I remember now.
Not pretty tho, eh, especially in comparison with a fully-dressed urq?
But then I'm biased

[Sleeper_Avant]

id take the 1700T ANY day

i have several times thaught about purchasing a RS200 kit(YB powered) or an Rs4, but at 30k for a used kit that dont look 100% right i always go towards the RS4, then i just HATE that V6TT sound, wahing machine on full spin lol

hence my AAN B5

Yes. I even have a 2.1 BDG (82mm stroke)

Wow, what a georgous picture

a friend recently put a terracotta mk2 RS2000 back on the road after about 20 years of de-comission

this was fitted with a Warrior engine, do you remember this modification?

230bhp 16v, sounds amazing!

Nice engine bay
Warrior (and Holbay?) 16v conversion isn't something you see every day

The sound of the BDG at 9000 is also amazing

[Sleeper_Avant]

there is NO other N/A engine past 9000rpm that sounds anything like a BDA/G

this is pure unadulterated sex!

the engine pictured above was a Warrior converted pinto

bit of history....
the Warrior was available as a bolt on mondifcation for any Pinto before cosworth developed the YAA 16v head for the pinto that eventualy evolved into the YB series of turbocharged engines fitted into sierras and escort RS Cosworths

The Holbay kit was an option in the early 70's:
