- Our recently 2.5 swapped kit car hits the dyno. A standard Ford Fusion lump running 50mm DANST DCOE throttle Bodies, ME221 ecu and 4-1 exhaust headers.

I love the binary VVT control you ended up using, it sounds like VTEC crossover in the best way.
Finding the right TDC pin is a pain in the butt! They're only just available for the 2.0 MZR with forged crank. I had to make my own out of threaded rod. Luckily I was starting with a timed engine so I was able to do that
4:38 DuraTEC kicked in yo?
January Sale on all DCOE ITB kits including the Duratec (and Fiesta ST150), use code 'merrydcoe': danstengineering.co.uk/index.php?route=product/search&search=duratec%20dcoe%20throttle%20bodies
I might be wrong but it looks like you might have used the wrong TDC pin to set the crank at TDC.....that looks to be the pin that's used on the older Zetec motors
turns out you were right on that! the kit had both Zetec and Duratec pins (the duratec one was MIA and it was assumed that the only pin in the box was the correct one!).
Oh my God, I must buy that. I must have a Itb set up for my Mazda 3😂
Wow!, I can only guess how that acceleration feels in the car. It really comes on strong.
yes it certainly goes well!
My briggs and straton lawn mowers sounds a million times better. (I still subbed, its a good contender)@@DanstengineeringCoUk
I know I’m a bit late to the party but is the 2.5 a better option over the 2.0 or 2.3? Bigger is usually better but are there any downsides over the other two engine sizes?
How do you have the on and off setup on the vvt? Is it on from start and off at at certain rpm
Yes that's right. It works, but nowhere near as good as closed loop control
Howdy there and great build! I wanna ask, however, what are the Height/Width/Length dimensions of the engine? In mm or Inches, preferably?
How high is your rev limit? I have an actual ford fusion I've been thinking of and ITB setup for it. The fusion has a rev limit of around 6700 rpms.
we have the limiter set at 7k but power peaks just slightly over 6k
Hi danst . With 2.0 Duratec standart what power on itb ?
Y what power with cams ? Do you sella cams ?
I want to ask a question I build the US version of the Ford escort I have been doing zetec swaps for years the cars in the United States originally had a split port 2.0 liter engine my question is concerning a duratec swap I plan on taking a 2.5 from a fusion the same as the engine your using and a 6-speed manual transmission and swapping it in a escort the only issue I will have is controlling the engine what would be the best option to control the engines basic functions and be able to use the the variable valve timing without losing any horsepower?
The ME221 is a well priced EFI ecu and comes with a duratec loom which will get you 90% plug and play, depending what TPS you use etc. This ecu fully controls the duratec vct (the only ecu in this price bracket to do so).

Would you be able to fit a duratec engine into a MK for me as I think this is beyond my engineering prowess.
Yes, this is something we can do. If you want to give us a call on 01274 580213 we can discuss your options and find a solution for you.
I have a stock 2.5 escape and want to get a set of itbs how reliable are these engines? Its an auto of course I wonder at what point it'll give out on the trans side
They're fine in terms of reliability, a set of ITB's isn't going to stress it excessively
That much whp with just itbs and a header?
No that power is flywheel. Now running cams and making 240bhp+, see here: czcams.com/video/vbWZ2pQGB14/video.html
Where are the throttle bodies from?
danstengineering.co.uk/Ford-Duratec-DCOE-Individual-Throttle-body-kit-All-Diameters?search=Duratec%20dcoe
What size is your headers and exhaust and what's the full spec of the engine? Is it truly stock except for the parts you mentioned
1 3/4" headers, 2.5" exhaust. 50mm ITB's and ME221 ECU with full VCT control.
Compression ratio?
@@MV1-OP81-Mclaren standard 👍
I find it really motivating how this engine stock with that little mods makes so much power, makes you wonder how much more power can be gained by putting in racing cams, porting the head and bumping up the compression. Well done on this build sir👌You mind sharing what the cam timing and ignition timing was on this build?
What kind of bellhousing are you using?
RWD Motorsport bellhousing and flywheel 👍
Are you able to get some sort air flow signal?
We do not need air flow measurements when running in alpha-n (TPS for load).
@@DanstengineeringCoUk thank you! I plan to use an Emerald ECU
Hi, which gearbox did you use at the duratec 2,5L?
It is currently the standard ST150 IB5 Gearbox
@@DanstengineeringCoUk is that not a front wheel drive gearbox?
@@MG-Driver Ah yes, I thought I was replying to our 2.5 Fiesta video, this is a Type 9 Sierra box
@@DanstengineeringCoUk hola que relaciones tiene la st 150 ib5 ?
this is WHP or HP on crank ?
crank
On duratec 2.0 what size on itb is the best ?
44-45mm work well and gives scope for further upgrades.
@@DanstengineeringCoUk hi . 190 hp std 2.0 ?
I noticed that you have put car throttle bodies on the car instead of one of your bike throttle bodies kits. Is it because the car derived ones offer more power?
No, we have only used these because they are 50mm diameter (very few bike bodies are that big) and we were looking to future proof it for further mods.
What would be a better ecu to control vvt?
The ME442 would offer full control of the vct
I’ve got a 1.7 litre Puma VCT engine on GSX throttle bodies with Omex 600 set up by Northampton Motorsports. Not easy to map but it’s an absolute peach!
