1989 turbocharged chrysler lebaron 2.2 back to life--GOTSPL--

its the phantom. Been down for 11 months and its back ---Runs 14-15psi fwd i snapped in the middle of racing the front bracebar that attaches to the trans mount with the engine torge.it was originally welded so we drilled 6-3/4" bolts through the frame and it holds. then shortly afterwards the steering collum snapped in half while racing so it took us 11 months to figure out how to replace it with another model lebaron which doesnt come with blinkers or the right harness on the collum.When we cut off the other harness it effected the brake lights so were trying to fix it.

Needs a few stick on "vents" and maybe a few scoops, and a few more "Turbo" badges to make it really go fast.

[@alexsbikesandmotors]

say the F word a few more times for real class

[@blackvan84]

that cold air is sucking hot air from the engine .

[@jm_lamp6998]

rob williams heats up better in the winter that way

[@351cleavland]

OR is the engine donating hot air to the cold intake?????

[@solsunson262]

ikr??...should have a cold air duct to the air cleaner...doh!

[@1riqoispliskin]

that's the biggest turd I've ever seen in my life. taking out the a.c doesn't make your car gutted. it's not clean at all with black spray paint and turbo stickers all over it. that cold air intake has more leaks than a paper bag nd is sucking in hot air. probably not even boosting properly plus those gauges don't even work. smh

[@1riqoispliskin]

plus that over spray on the engine blows learn to tape

[@bryanlawrence5045]

with what he said in the video "totalled twice, wrecked 7 times...." and the overspray under the hood, the rattlecan paint job, the single walmart seat cover, and his excessive use of the phrase "mother fucker" all i can think is this is the result of a bunch of potheads with too much time on their hands

[@drunkenmessiah]

Huh. Pretty sweet van engine you got there mate. 1989 2.5 liter Turbo I with the SMEC engine management. Mitsubishi turbo blowing straight into a 1-piece TII style intake manifold. Has balance shafts stock, as well as really short-skirted pistons to get 2.5 liters out of the Common Block. Cast crank, forged rods, Mahle cast aluminum pistons. Really strong motor, will take a lot of boost. That A413 automatic transaxle is prolly your weak link. They need heavy mods to take 250+ horsepower.

[@719gaming]

put it about 2 and a half inches away from the flux capasitor because it utilizes less gigawats to open up the BOV, if you do this youll get about 14-15 psi, if you dont do the 2 and a half inches youll push about 2-3 psi making about 500 cat power thats about 500000 horsefly power and about 50000000000 sperm cell power, but do the 2/half inch away from the flux capasitor and youll make about 1 trillion horse power :) hope this helps

I wish Chrysler stuck with DSM and having turbos and shit for cheap then they would not need bailing out.

[@ronsmith4325]

As someone who grew up owning several of these cars, it seriously hurts to watch this video......

[@GodsFistFighter]

Sick whip❤

[@Mandolin1944]

Cool! They were great cars in their day. Owned several all the way from the Turbo I in 1986 (142 - 146 bhp), the the Turbo II VNT (174 bhp) to the 16 v inter-cooled Turbo III (224 bhp). They would smoke many V8s in those days. They were also very reliable the turbo bearing was water cooled so they seldom failed.

[@deerock1268]

So what simple upgrades can I do with a stock 89 2.5 turbo?

[@butcherbaker4258]

Bro you painted the intake and valve cover? Its hideous and did you really need to steal every part from a local parts shop. I wonder if that cold air pipe is long enough 🤔 poor people are the best 👌

[@_doomzday]

My 2.2 turbo just blew on my dodge 600. Will an ebay aftermarket turbo be able to easily replace it?

[@briantruck2284]

I have this car in backyard been there 15 year's because brakes quit working

[@igovacata2238]

do you have any idea on how to time the le baron?

[@Krauzerin11]

Amazing job man ! i m having problems with the same engine, black smoke, car doesnt seem to take off.. IT feels really heavy.. I would apreciate any tip about it... Thank you : )

[@mikeallmon1]

that's not a cold air intake. it is breathing hot under hood air with this setup and doing no good. A true "cold air" would be taking the air from outside the engine compartment for "cold air" the original setup was really taking air from behind the headlight which was in front of the radiator core support, which is external of the engine compartment.

[@mhungerford1105]

HEY!! Freak You MAN!!!...I said the same thing to myself as soon as he said that yeah cold air with it pressed up to the block....its a good intake yes...fine...very tough to do this to that car, i get it...but dont make it something its not bro...

[@joshdenham8404]

Literally losing horsepower when the car is warmed up 😆

[@dodgeelder8911]

That’s a lot of spray paint

[@feverdream]

racing in a convertible with no roll cage

[@WindmillGuy]

Where's the heat shield around the cold air intake?

[@dbauernf]

3:45 - Did he say CLEAN?!

[@dstanhope]

The third turbo put out 224 HP four valve 167 kw

[@strattuner]

[@tantaweens]

[@igovacata2238]

do you have any idea on how to time the le baron?

[@LoopKoop6778]

[@tantaweens]

Check my thumb nail . 89 . Lebaron 2.5 turbo 5 spd manual .

[@joshdenham8404]

I thought the starter on my Daytona was going out. But a quick KZbin search and I've realized they all sound like that! 😅

[@becomeinspirational4086]

Would you sell? If so, could you make it street legal for me? Name your price...

[@dstanhope]

Chrysler put out three or four types of turbo engines, which is yours?

[@NissanVK56]

Nice car bro I had an 88 but mine was non turbo it was beat to hell but I still loved it

[@MrGoldenwaffler]

All set for the annual drunk trailer park drag race day

[@okeisen]

[@MrRavi009]

[@NecromancerGarage]

[@DaKattila]

[@llamaking12]

Nice warm air intake......

[@Pyro3601]

[@kcarman88]

[@astarothhentaiguy3554]

2.5 is more unreliable than the 2.2 though

[@ThatHoodNiggaBrik]
