Sorry this has taken so long to get up. I'm going to split the entries up into November and December so each month can have a winner and we'll be fresh for January.
Here are all the November contestants.
TominMO's Car "Larry" AKA Kittiestivia
Started out like this.
Then Eurotiva swapped in a second generation b6 with a rear mounted Turbo for Tom.
111 hp 127 ft/lbs. @ the wheels.
Then Tom decided to take the rear turbo off the car and build it all motor. He started with a small AGM battery upgrade.
He then installed a Dickmeyer Automotive Ported cylinder head and custom camshaft.
Tom had to remove some material around the valve reliefs of the pistons for clearance of the big valve head.
Then he cleaned up the wiring and installed a Dickmeyer header.
Then Tom installed a wideband O2 meter
This setup made almost 98hp and 108ft.lbs of TQ
Tom then put his own custom designed suspension on the car.
and an Aspire brake swap and Konig Estrella wheels.
14carrots car
When I got My 91 festiva l it was in very sad shape. The previous owner decided to basically drive it through a lake to impress his "friends" and I picked it up off of a wrcker for less than 200 dollars. Surprisingly the little car refused to give up and I drove it home the day I got it. That weekend disassembly began revealing various mechanical issues like burned valves, cracked head and warped pistons. However, betweenmy dad, grandfather and I (and a head off a 95 aspire) we managed to bring the little car back to life. Spunkier than ever. I've decided to name the car War Machine for its ability to continue running after taking so much internal damage. Recently, at my own fault, the axles fell out of the trans and the drive gear turned sideways and busted the case. However with the help of another member I located a new trans and should be in this next week.I will add to this post as much as possible to keep progress updated.
