Im doing this on a renault engine, but its a low compression engine as opposed to the Zetec.
I would imagine youll need to follow the same build plans for a zetec turbo.

I would at least change the rod bolts,for ARP items.These are the weak
link in the zetec.
I'm busy building a turbo motor and have so far fitted HD bearings with ARP
bolts and am waiting for a decompression plate to lower the compression.
15 psi boost with standard internals sounds a bit high to me.I wouldnt
run more than about 8 psi.
