But good shit though lol

Actually, more like an idiot just putting parts without knowing what he is doing. Had he known what he was doing that manifold would not be there to fail. One other thing may be going on they may have intentionally boosted it high to induce a failure to have a youtube video to post. In that case they win.

@@rogerhancock8732 the real criminal is whoever thought up putting plastic parts where pressure and heat are a concern

@@subarulegacy5436 you are 100% correct. just goes to show automotive engineers are morons. Don't forget after they put all the plastic in or on heat sources, they cover the engine with other plastic coverings keeping more heat trapped. Not only that they cram the engines into the tightest bays they can.

​@subarulegacy5436 not just heat, heat cycles... That make plastic brittle. These engineers man 🤦

@@dfresh5331 shop I work at if we spot the black plastic parts turning brown we recommend all the plastic parts in the cooling system be replaced. Intakes not so much unless they get pressurized. We have also gotten to where we no longer repair intake runner flaps and choose a full replacement of the intake assembly.

easiest machine to use!!

we're unsure if it's there's an issue with the 1.6L - however, it is not the same VVT system.

@@speedperformance ah alright, thank you for the reply

They do

yes the actuator itself.

@@speedperformance have you got a direct link please? I’ve seen the Mazda one?

some cars experience it & some don't. It does depend on how much power the engine is producing though.

you can monitor Exhaust VCT Actual on your accessport to be able to tell.

yes we've been including a fix in all of our engines.

​@@speedperformance is the fix you offer on all your engines the same fix (part) in this video that can add another 100hp or the fix in this video is different and still in testing?

@@BigBadBillyGATEZ yes it's the same thing - To add to the 100whp statement: It is only true when you have the turbo capable of producing enough power. For example; if you have an NX2 and it's already maxed out at ~520whp. Fixing the issue will not net you more power but it will make the engine much safer. You will see some power gains but not 100whp

What type of cylinder head you decide to use is irrelevant to the issue. The VVT running away from its target at higher RPM is the issue. Though the affects were stronger on 2&3, it doesn't mean that the rest of the cylinders were okay. Cylinder #1 was still .001" out of round.

it's in dyno mode

He in hiding hahaha.

​@@speedperformance lol, sorry did I miss something? Drama? I was such a fan of his tuning videos and explination videos. Though I don't have a speed or ecoboost platform (I have an Hhr SS with turbo ecotec), I found the information relatable since what I have is also d.i. ecotec turbo.

You can manually switch it to FWD in dyno mode

Let's get in touch! email [email protected]!

@@speedperformance will do

Seems like a 2.0 block with 2.5 stroker kit? Not 100% sure

Description says it’s a 2.0L ST block with a 2.5 stroker.
