[BP-Festiva]

what are the dimensions of your IC id like to run a set up like yours when i go turbo.

i was on the "energy suspension" web site and FINALY found the part number for the mounts i have been looking for... i was at lordco looking thru there catalog for an hour before i gave up... i go on the net and 2 min later i have the number these are the mounts im getting...

if you have to make your own mounts to put the b6t in the festiva you might as well and make them good and handle the power....

the IC core is 22 X 6.5 X 2.25 inches and with the end tanks its 26.5 inches.

Wow that looks awesome! Keep posting updates, once I get the BP engine in my festy I am thinking about throwing a turbo on it, really good info here.

thanks... there is a couple people on the vancouver civic forum selling turbos.... i pick mine up off there... also there is a killer deal on a intercooler about the smae size as mine.. i would have bough it but he posted it about 2 hours i left to go pick mine up and i would have saved a 100 bucks then... if you want a link ill pm it to you...

SWEET idea!!! that would stiffen then up even more... less rubber to flex... but befor i go and do that i got to get new mounts cause i had to hammer mine to make them fit lol... i knew there was a reason to go to the junkyard today

last night i spent a couple hours cleaning my turbo... evapo-rust, wire brush and a dremal with a wire brush... looks alot better...

[sasquatch]

turbonetics t3to4 (i think...) its the closest one i can find for pics...

[sasquatch]

b6t is out and fab on the header is gonna start as soon as i get off the computer i took the bottom end apart and the bearings look MINT everything is going good and the b6t should be in the festiva in about a week (if money allows)
