I'm new to the moding game so i'm not to sure what problems that I'm going to run into.
The plan is to drop put the old 1.3 and replace with a festiva 1.5. Then me and my old man are going to slap a supercharger on it. There is a definite time limit so any suggestions or ideas would be thanked. My oldman is the brains of the operation so theres no lack of experience. P.S is there a cheep 1.5 twin cam that would fit easily into the festiva ( I was thinking excel maybe). But anything that is compatible would be appreciated. |

I had a look and I couldn't get any real prices.
I'm a bit reluctant as I don't have much to spend. Somewhere between 2 to 3 grand. Plus pops has a good deal on a small blower for it. Plus the time issue is the real problem. Due to space and equipment it will take about 3 days just to but a new engine in then we're going to have to manufacture parts to fit the blower. P.S anyone with prices AUS for 2l duratec please post

Supercharge it!!!
Either that or look for a Kia engine to fit, since that's what it is underneath. Might make the swap easier.
