GM Automotive built their Ford Transit Courier to compete in time attack and show off their engine swap skills. The van is no longer powered by a turbocharged 1.0 L EcoBoost inline-three. Instead GM Automotive swapped a turbocharged 1.6 Ecoboost inline-four from a Fiesta ST. The inline-four produces 300 hp (220 kW) thanks to a Turbo Technics S280 turbocharger. Power is sent to the front wheels through a Fiesta ST manual transmission. GM Automotive upgraded the handling using Solo-Works three-way adjustable coilovers, EBC front brakes, and Yokohama A052 tires. Watch Misha Charoudin drive the van around Nürburgring in the video below.
