===European Turbo 1.6=== A turbocharged version of the 1.6 L was developed by Ford Europe for the RS Turbo Escort and the later [[Ford Fiesta RS Turbo]]. It makes {{cvt|132|hp-metric|kW|0}} at 6,000 rpm, and {{cvt|133|lbft|Nm|0|abbr=on}} of torque at 3,000 rpm. The block is modified to provide an oil return from the [[turbocharger]]. [[Crankshaft]] and [[connecting rod]]s are identical to the standard 1.6 L models, but the [[Mahle GmbH|Mahle]] pistons are unique to the RS Turbo, and are manufactured using a pressure cast method which makes them considerably stronger and more expensive than the normal cast pistons. The compression ratio was reduced to 8.3:1, allowing the use of higher boost pressure. The engine only needs {{cvt|7|psi|bar|abbr=on}} of boost to produce its quoted power output.
