Turbo Ford
 
My friend was telling me that this guy he works with (<lol) used to own some kind of little ford. And he claims that it was smaller than a festiva, but was turbo'd. He says he blocked off the wastegate, and the thing ripped. Anyone know what this guy is talking about, or is he full of ----?

Heh. I don't think he was talking about an SVO. He said the thing was smaller than a festiva. I'm starting to think he's full of ----.

Before the Festiva there was the Fiesta. That was a tiny little car. I dont know if they came turbo'd or not but it was the 80s, everything came turbo'd in the 80s. The Dodge Colt turbo was a good sleaper, as well as the 3 cylinder Chevy Sprint.

there was a fiesta rs turbo in europe. But over here, i don't think i have seen a stock turbo fiesta. The mercuri capri was small and turbo, wasn't it?

This is a pic of the fiesta rs turbo we get here in the uk,

http://gallery.cybertarp.com/albums/...4706/fezza.JPG

Standard it has a 0- 60 in 7.7, standing 1/4 mile it will do 15.9!

Crank the boost to 20psi and they fly!

0 - 60 in under 6 an 1/4 in 12's

I never saw any fiestas that were turbo'd, but it is possible that they are around. Those little shitboxes should have come stock with a funeral wreath.

The mazda 323 came with a turbo, maybe your buddy is confused?

Much. And slow too. Even with the turbo, my cousin (89 Probe GT Turbo) couldn't beat my NA d16a6 crx (intake and exhaust).

Ford Festiva, maybe??

I know there were some Chevy Sprints that were turbo, maybe Ford did likewise with the Festiva...
