The adapters are $80 USD with shipping. I believe the Escort carb is from the early 80's - maybe someone with more experience with the Escort carb can chime in. A search may turn up some more info as well

What years of escort carbs will work for a 89 and how much is your adapters ?

Ok so SOT but where is best to purchase a kit or individual jets for my Progressive Weber? I tore into it this WE & it may be a knock off since nowhere on it does it say maid in Spain & I found a few of the jets installed had NO markings (yes I cleaned & checked thoroughly)?

You only need to block off the EGR on 1st gen. B6's. B3's are fine the way they are. I found that they will leak vacuum kind of by accident when I put my new intake and Escort carb on my car.

Just get an EGR gasket and a small piece of 1/4" aluminum plate. Trace the gasket, drill the holes, cut out the pattern and file it smooth, bolt it on with the gasket. Done.

needragr and Jibletgreyv your adapters have both shipped.

Got it thanx. in process of making some custom gaskets with .030 Phenolic.
Question: the DGEV has a couple of "air bleeds" around the periphery of one of the throats. It appears that these are need to be exposed /relief-ed on that top gasket?
Also I saw mentioned that it is necessary to block of an EGR plate when performing this swap? Where ? Plate? Do I make it can it be purchased ? OE or Aftermarket?

Another great looking product.

It's an adapter for the IHI VF10 turbo as found on certain Subarus. Similar to the Tbird turbo, the stock inlet pipe is not suitable for use on our engines because of the angle or shape of the pipe, so I came up with a bolt-on aftermarket cast inlet that permits you to come up with your own intake piping.

VF10 inlets:


Similar inlet & outlet I did for the JDM GTR turbo, the VJ23, that faces the same issue with restrictive OEM piping:

Couldn't be happier with my compressor inlet adapter.

What is the adapter for? A/C? Turbo?
