  • Charlie's new swap motor

    I expect Charlie will be installing this motor in a Festiva in the near future.....

    Why 4 turbos though. I'd hate to replace one. It's bad enough on twin turbo v engines

      Because they couldn't fit 5 in there.

        I can't figure out why car manufacturers use multiple smalls over one big. Ever seen a 3000gt vr4? Omg that pipe routing. That engine bay is a jungle. Or the eco boost f150. More than enough room for a single, which would keep costs down. But maybe it's cause of exhaust cracks, that's why they place them right at the head.

          Multiple Turbos of different sizes spool at different speeds, they are just there to try and minimize turbo lag.

          You could probably buy like 20 rust free Festivas for what that engine would cost. lol
