My KLZE Festiva Build Thread

[Lmcclure]

every day i see your car, you make me want to v6 mine SO BAD.....thats amazing

[hofficergrover]

Very true!
How did you get the pipes? They off a v6 right?

[Damkid]

Aren't all Festiva owners good with working on a tight budget :lol:

[thered56]

You certainly are good at working with a budget aren't you? Good to see you getting there with this project!

[hofficergrover]

Yeah man get it done!!!

[Damkid]

buwahahaha let the piping begin






And the bonus is these pipes came off of a probe and will only cost $20

I'm basically planning on cutting up the pipes and just use the elbows and straight pieces to make my own piping.... after talking with Rocketman at Ohiostiva, i'm going to take his idea on the turbo grand prix style piping....... it'll allow me to run bigger piping all around to keep it from being a restriction

[Damkid]

Sorry no progress, I just haven't had any money to spare for quite some time and family needs are top priority over car parts, financially things are looking better for me in July so hopefully I'll be able to start buying more parts

[DrMaxwellEdison]

any progress or is there another thread?

[Christ]

How will you control the vnt on the holset? Or is that one not vnt?

Igot a almost new (couple dyno runs) GT37 vnt twin scroll in a box in the barn... Was almost considering putting it on my Golf diesel lol. Ended up buying a TE04H instead.

[thered56]

I've heard the hx35 should get me at least 400hp :evil4:

Well if that's the case, the next step will be trying to find traction anyways! lol :p Heck, even if that's not the case...

[Damkid]

The garett turbo would be good for about 350hp (so I've heard) and I've heard the hx35 should get me at least 400hp :evil4: I haven't looked at a compressor map to confirm it though

[dueces]

Yeah, it should work great for around 300whp I would think, I don't think people try to push them too much farther than that. Still 300whp in a festy, hold the F on!!!!

Hope you get her running soon, it's gonna be sweet!

[Damkid]

Is the HX35 gonna support your power goals? I Think you might have to upgrade to a 40, or maybe I am just plain wrong, Ha ha. I love Turbo Diesel Turbo'es, because they will last forever if you take care of them

I can't be certain that the 35 will be exactly what I want but it's a hell of a start lol

[thered56]

it should look nice and clean when I'm done

Oh it will!
