  • Ultimate v8 swap!!!

    Saw this wicked awesome power/weight ratio vehicle in a parking lot yesterday. OK, ok, so its not a festiva... but still, Powerstroke Turbo Diesel? Ya can't go wrong with that kinda power no matter what you put the badge on.

    Sorry its so blurry, had to snap the pic quick with the camera phone cause they were getting in to drive away. What made it even better is what it was parked next to lol, look in the background. Wonder where he found that badge? :lol: :lol:
    No festiva for me ATM...

      Unfortunately Ford never included VTEC on their Powerstroke diesels

      :lol: :lol:

      But I guess if he could hack the diesel in there he probably had the ability to install the VTEX onto the motor :lol

      In other VTEX news Chevrolet has recently reintroduced special edition Cavalier and they have apparently signed a deal with Honda





      Saw that one in town a couple of years ago LoL

              Only one? I'm sure it's at least quad turbo, one for each cylinder.

                  i like to be more optimistic about stuff like that... like maybe he wanted a reliable car so he swapped a k series motor in it... or its a pretty sweet integra body kit...

                    Today I went to an exhaust shop and I started talking to the guy about the b6t swap and he didn't know what the Capri was so he Googled it and then pointed at the air intake filter and said oh theres the turbo

                    Same guy...I was telling him about fastivab6t's car and told him it ran 13.2 in the 1/4, he then replies saying his Honda Del Sol ran 8's...

                          That Del Sol probably had a turbo for each of the four driven wheels.
