My KLZE Festiva Build Thread

I haven't decided on which coils yet because I may hold off for a bit to convert to coil on plugs, that part is still up in the air for this winter at least

Couldn't you do The coil on plug set-up off of a Millenia SC?

ooooooooooooo ms3.... drool

but the high imp will be even harder to dial in.... time will tell lol...

what are you doing for coils?

[Damkid]

They are high impedance and i plan to get the megasquirt 3 with the expansion board, full sequential spark and fuel drool

[sasquatch]

wow 850cc.... isnt that a bit much.... unless you set them up for sequential injection i think the idle will still be hard to set up.... are the high or low imp?

[Damkid]

I took hppwdn's advice and yesterday i bought a set of 850cc RX7 injectors, they should have been shipped out today and will arrive to me soon this will save me from building a custom fuel rail and it will easily be able to supply enough fuel to any amount of boost i throw at the engine

So in the meantime i started taking apart my stock KL fuel rails

[Damkid]

^^:lol: what can I say, I didn't have a pop can nearby to show the size of the turbo so I figured the beer bottle would work :lol:

[25Horseplay]

Does that "Bud" bottle restrict flow or help with boost?

[Damkid]

Oh no, i haven't even started on the piping yet, plus i haven't even got the aluminum i need to make my intake, plus money has been wrapped up in the GTX lately so next is christmas shopping then after the holidays i can get the things needed to continue with the build

[timmay89]

This is exciting! Any chance of it being finished for Christmas?

[Damkid]

Blow off valve, Thanks again Greg

[Damkid]

Originally a Grand National turbo, so it's not a perfect match for my engine but for $50, it will do a great job til i am able to upgrade the turbo later

[Damkid]

^^big thanks for that info, I may take a trip to a junkyard this weekend to find some parts

[hppwdn]

If you get the RX7 injectors make sure you get the hold downs to keep them in the rails and the connectors. They drop right in, but can't use that black plastic thing that holds down the stock KL injectors.

You can also use the hold downs (caps) from a 929 and connectors from just about any Mazda injector. I found that RX7, 929, 4cyl mx3 and miata connectors all worked.

I noticed you plan to go coil on plug with MS. I've been coil on plug in my KL on MS3 with the MS3X expansion board on full sequential fuel and spark for a few months now and seem to have it all sorted out at this point.

I'm running:
MS3/MS3X
2006 CBR 1000 coils
Acura Legend 6 channel ignitor from the coil on plug version (I think it was a mid nineties model)
HKS DLI ignition amplifier. The CBR coils didn't like past 350whp or so.
Some sort of marine tip plug so you can unscrew the top off. The same ones the Honda guys use in the B18s will work in the KL.

For your injectors, I'm still sidefeed running 3rd Gen RX7 850cc secondary injectors. Drop right into stock KL rails and MS3 has no problem controlling an injector that large.

Hoping to have new track and dyno numbers by the end of the year. Currently in the 400tq/450whp range hoping to get a little past 500 to get my new track goals.

Edit: Here was the video of the first COP startup.

Hmm, i didn't know of any injectors that would bolt right up to the stock fuel rail.... you got me re-thinking about making my custom rail, if i happen to find a set of RX7 injectors, i might just scrap the idea of the rail :lol:
