My KLZE Festiva Build Thread

you could fit a supercharger in there with a custom manifold.

Your probably right but I still prefer turbos :lol:

I was waiting for this thread, keep us posted 'cause that is gonna be ridiculously sweet

[B6T]

Because I know a thing or two about the space constraints of that particular car ( ), I think it would be less of a frustration to go with a centrifugal type supercharger... Vortech, or Rotrex if you have the $$$. Then run methanol injection rather than a intercooler. This way you'd be able to keep everything under the hood, as opposed to cutting a hole in the hood for the 'Subaru' type intercooler.

But then again, I never thought a V6 would fit in there either...

You just keep raising the bar chris, making me feel bad. now i have to get back to work on my car and actually get something done. i like the supercharger idea too. best of luck with the build. Did you ever get that GTX?

[501Dezz19]

WOW Chris!!!!!that beast is gonna be a rocket on wheels!!!!keep up the good work..

[mikeycar500]

This going to be awesome can't wait to c more pic of this. Hey Chris what r u going to do about the tranny make another one or go with a diff tranny one that can take the power.

ehh superchargers are less efficient... they take hp before they make it.therefore more pressure is needed for the same hp results.. though a supercharger would be interesting good luck with the build i will be watching

[bhazard]

Rear turbo sounds pretty logical here. You have no room under the hood and you can chill the intake charge on the way up front. Plus you wont have to worry about a fancy exhaust setup up front.

[Damkid]

Not to worry guys, I will not be cutting any holes in the hood, ever, basically whatever I do the cars outer appearance will not change

But sorry I won't be supercharging it, turbo all the way

[timmay89]

This is going to awesome!!! I also have been waiting for this thread for a while now. You will have the fastest festiva by far once you turbo it! Best of luck.

[Damkid]

All I did today was put the flanges on the milling machine at work so the flanges are flat and all the same height

explain that to the top fuel guys lol

[Nerd Racing]

supercharger + turbo man, supercharger gets you past the lag!

[dueces]

I know that first hand, being the only person to twincharge the KL motor..... but to save complexity, just go turbo, and that lag just might save the tires some, not that you really can save them once your turbo
