Great video as usual Scotty. At my place I have Package Wednesdays where all my car part packages turn up. My mates also send what they bought online to my place so their girlfriend/missus/partner don't find out how much the parts bought costs. When you finish with the intercooler & piping, if the front bar sags when you put it back together, use pool noodles & cut to size.

[@brettwatson-will3388]

A good trick to hold the bonnet up when the struts are stuffed is to use a pair of vice grips where the ram goes into the tube. Clamp it on the ram, and the bonnet won't fall on your head, and you can lose the bonnet prop.

[@blownhemi]

That's a good idea, I'll have to try that.

[@XavierReynolds-lc3iv]

Just do yourself a favour and put a rag over the cylinder or youll scratch the fuk out the metal with the vicegrips if the bonnet falls ​@blownhemi

Everytime I remove AC they always have no gas in the system 😉 guess it leaked out before I got to it

Yep, and i always forget to turn the camera on when disconnecting it!

Wu-Tang war whistles are gods gift, I've had an eBay 3582 spec turbo on my V6 skidder for 7 years now, not a single drop of water has ever been through it 😅 oh and it makes 450whp so it's not like it cops an easy life 🤣

[@jimclarke1108]

I bought a cheap power steering cooler, hose and clamps, works great, P.S runs hot without a cooler🤠

[@jcspeedshop]

[@josephbarker4436]

I bought a 1981 Suzuki hatch as a project car for my than 7yo daughter who is now 10 as a first car, it would be a great car to do this challenge with and i would absolutely love to however im in no position with funds to be able this year, however if you can do another 12s to 2k next year i can hopefully get in on it as i love the concept.

[@SuperTambo69]

Pick up a cheap live axle XR6 3:45 diff. And just bypass the PS cooler, or even put in an Astra EPS pump

[@danielsultana5615]

22:45 also my daily saying! 😂 Loving the project mate 👍

[@jrbuch]

I had an AU Taxi back in the day. $750 Thomas town special pre covid. The thing was great to be honest. Only issue with the standard INTECH engine is that they couldn't do a good burnout to save themselves. I like what you plan is Scotty. Keen to see how you get on.

[@lesliethompson3054]

Intercooler pipping from a b series fits in an au. Only the hot side changes depending on how you mount the turbo. I just bent the power steering line out of the way. 😂

[@goingforadds]

You know you've got kids - Hammer barn

[@blownhemi]

That and I don't want to give too many free kicks to a billion dollar company

[@jamiemarshall6295]

I run one of the smaller ebay $80 waste gates on my dodgy barra turbo set up in my Bedford truck race car. Mounted directly onto the exhaust housing of the turbo without any issues at all for 3 seasons of drags and a few burnouts on the pad. No water in ethier wastegate or turbo. Chinese unit. Love seeing budget fun.

[@blownhemi]

That's pretty impressive reliability

[@michaelb5330]

A couple of big hole saw holes and some dimple die to add strength back to the bar to get that little bit of extra flow Will you go crazy cutting all the bonnet and boot structure out Headlight duct delete?? All the fun of Scotty making 12s for 2

[@blownhemi]

I'm not going to go too crazy

[@imidsikkey]

You're taking one for the team, Scotty 😅 If you end up with decent results, then my DA ltd will be getting this turbo ... If it blows, then I'll reconsider

[@grahamewart2364]

Re-route the steering cooler up to sit above the intercooler. Or grab a B series one and put it there with new lines.

[@colinmiles9390]

Can’t wait to see the return of the Safari Wagon. Miss me a good mopar video

[@blownhemi]

Don't worry, we will be back to it soon.

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

I wouldn't be scared of a .63 housing, in fact that is what I prefer. I had a .63 housing / 3076 on my SR20DET and it worked real well. I find the smaller housing tends to be a lot more linear in power delivery than the big 1.0x housings. Yes they might make more top end horsepower for people looking for dyno queens, but for conservative strip work I think the smaller housing is a lot smarter choice. You control the boost, so it only becomes an issue if you let it.

[@gemini3558]

Power steering cooler in the bin lol 😝 😜👍🇦🇺

[@Adamsmaj]

Hey Scotty love the series, getting back to basics. Weight saving, headlights and tail lights could be removed, just a thought.

[@mycatsayshey]

looks like "House of Hoon" are on board :) - Datsun 720 trayback - interesting choice!

[@scottyb069]

As for the intercooler piping, I don't know what your'e like at aluminium welding or if you have an AC Tig, but you could have a crack with stainless 3" exhaust tubing, maybe some off cuts from your local exhaust guy if you buy him a few beers, just a thought if your'e tight for cash.

[@blownhemi]

@@scottyb069 yeah, that's also an idea

[@kiwidad5000]

[@alexfehlberg1065]

I can see you are a keen gardener.

[@blownhemi]

[@tony66au]

With that front crashbar I was wondering when you'd drill the speed holes for a bit more air on the intercooler :-) I know its a pain in the bum with a hole saw buuuuuuut lighter AND cooler?

[@BestuffM]

love ur vids scotty congrats on completing the drag challenge ya done well

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

lol yes let's not snap off the power steering lines. Thought it was weird that the lines looped back without any visible fittings. Was wondering how it connected to the condenser. That front bar looks like it might use a bit of a diet and improve airflow through the intercooler.

[@blakamin]

Cant believe the stickers are so cheap! they're awesome quality! Might have to buy more next week!

[@blownhemi]

@@blakamin plenty in stock, and ready to post. Thanks for your order.

[@johnwalters6025]

Scotty, power steering pump etc, and the a/c compressor etc, if not already removed, is extra weight, and HP

[@blownhemi]

Yep, but they also cost money to remove because you have to replace them with something else. So it becomes a cost versus benefit equation.

[@johnwalters6025]

@blownhemi that makes sense

[@DukeOfTwist]

I'm trying to go 10's for $10k of upgrades on top of purchase price. Might be done for Monday 27th January TnT at HPR (Australia Day Long Weekend) Cheers Brenton.

[@peterschmidtchen8560]

2 inch hole saw in a few places through that front bumper bar mount m8. Still strong but let's the air through.

[@craiglaing2417]

Just put some speed holes in the bumper support 👌

[@peterwheatley7991]

A Jim's mowing/ landscaping sponsor might be required, moving forward...🤪

[@steven44799]

you are going to need a big wastegate/very good wastegate priority to try and keep a 0.63 housing from falling on its face at high RPM, the ba turbos came on boost at ~2k rpm with the 1.06 housing from factory so that tiny housing is going to hit hard.

[@tonga007]

Scotty. I’ve got a el ecu and a j3 chip from ti performance that I don’t need, ecu is pre tuned for a turbo’d au motor. If your interested

[@blownhemi]

@tonga007 ohhh, how much? might be cheaper than my idea

Always enjoy your videos, Big congrats for sticking with it at Drag Challenge 2024 and "YES" you did complete the challenge, even on your own, well-done mate, Could you please help us out regarding your turbo and parts as you put up the links to maXpeedingrod's site and then you said you shopped around for better prices, eg: the GT3582 Turbo from maXpeedingrod is AUS $237.00 amazon AUD $203.00 eBay AUD $172.58 Your helpful reply would be greatly appreciated, Thanks, Scotty.

[@blownhemi]

Wow, I can't believe that me not replying to this, is the comment that you got so angry over. Simply use google to find the best prices.

[@MRMOPARMAN0426]

Well now you are used to having no power steering, just ditch the whole lot 😅 You could repurpose the ac condensor as an auto cooler, not that you'll need it, that turbo will spool super fast!

[@gmhkiller]

Received my shirt cheers scotty lov it :)

[@blownhemi]

@@gmhkiller awesome

[@elforteburnoutcar160]

Hey scotty loved the original 13s for 1300 cant wait to see how this pans out lol iv heard that its a possibility the bf dedicated gas rods are similar in strength to turbo rods and can possibly be a straight fit into au intech.

[@blownhemi]

@elforteburnoutcar160 yep, the only problem is that the rod bolts are Torque To Yield and need to be replaced, and then you need to resize the rods. So it's cheaper to buy aftermarket rods

[@scroatworx2339]

just bypass the power steering "cooler" at the front, for how much steering will be done it wont need it.

[@flre_rgue3916]

Remove the charcoal canister 👍🏻

[@tturi2]

shoot for the moon and add a low pressure stage for the turbo 💪(compound😊)

[@wingoson]

EBay pit bike coolers work great for power steering cooler and there compact plus there cheap

[@bennthompson3918]

I have a 1.06 rear housing you can have for free off a ebay gt3582 in gippsland vic, it is a internal gate housing but you could block that off

[@brendanmatthys3788]

I commented on the last video but i dont want you to miss it scotty!! If you want to get rid of the sound deadening material for free, just use a heatgun and it'll lift right out all as one piece. At least thats what I've seen on KZbin

[@blownhemi]

@@brendanmatthys3788 I'll have to check on that, but my experience is heat guns just make it soft and gooey

[@JamesOnscotch]

Is it an optical illusion or is that turbo shaft pre-bent?

[@blownhemi]

@JamesOnscotch i know what you're looking at. Turbo shafts run in an oil bath at high speed, this has no oil in it, so there will be movement. There's always a bit of play in a turbo shaft, even new ones. But if it destroys itself on start up, then we'll know for sure.

[@craiglaing2417]

Looking forward for stage two of this build once a rod comes a knocking. 9’s for $9k 😂 Only has to last one round

[@stuartcornall5306]

[@alexread1327]

Is it worth running a hole saw through the bar in a few spots Scotty? Rather than cut it out just speed holes

[@Mrturbocorona]

Really tempted to whack this l67 iv got laying around in my 67 toyota stout for this challenge she's pretty rusty but iv been trying to decide what to do with it this seems like the perfect way to build it good cheap fun

[@blownhemi]

@@Mrturbocorona go for it!

[@Mrturbocorona]

@blownhemi wouldn't be able to make it down to the track for the event but I'll see what I can whip up might be able to get a few runs in at the creek that week

[@blownhemi]

@Mrturbocorona that would be fine. On or around the date would be fine so I can announce the times if people want them shown in the video

[@aussiecarbogan]

Spewing I didn't know about this challenge earlier. Im not sure I have the time now. Lets see.

[@DanielWhite-v7n]

How about uses a hole saw say 2 inch on the front bar

[@blownhemi]

Haha

[@almstlegalgarage]

Hey Scotty, Are you weighing what you put back in to counteract the weight you took out?

[@blownhemi]

I hadn't planned to, but we could if people are interested

[@almstlegalgarage]

@ id be interested in that, to see if the car still comes under weight to stock or if it’s just counteracting the weight added but of course added power gains.

[@martyburgess341]

What about knocking out a metal tube nudgebar? Good for airflow

[@blownhemi]

True enough. that'll save some weight. Go alloy Neighbour-style tubes front and rear. might cost too much though

[@EricaMTB]

Might need the rear sway bar to preload the suspension and make it go straight.

[@blownhemi]

In my experience, letting them move bit gets better results

[@andrewthompson7793]

Challenged myself a few years ago to see how fast I could go for cheap. Built a 1977 reliant kitten with a rear mounted 2.0 zetec with a turbo blowing through an su carb for £1500 got it to run 12.45 eventually 😂

[@blownhemi]

@@andrewthompson7793 nice work

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

I am constantly saying to a mate of mine what something costs, and what something is worth, are two completely different things. Things made in China are often cheap because they don't have the wank factor added to it. Anyone that has ever worked in retail knows there can be hundreds of percent (I have seen items that had 1000%) added to a product. Which means the real cost of manufacture is nothing like what is charged at the cash register. If people buy into the BS that gets peddled then they will pay through the nose for something that doesn't really cost that much to make. Often the difference is the purely mark up.

[@MrMysto]

I never run turbos with water, just use high grade synthetic oil

[@blownhemi]

@@MrMysto that's interesting to know

[@MrMysto]

@ i had problems with turbo bearings using HPR 40, it was splitting the oil at 28psi, since switching to hi grade synthetic no problems, can thank Bill at ATS (Adelaide Turbo Services) for his wisdom. The HPR under the scope had abrasive dirt partials in it from the heat.

[@cameronbrown1600]

Hey scotty are you going to j pipe it to hang the turbo? I figured out that the front half of the exhaust log can be turned upside down and fitted to the rear so getting a 2nd log then using pipe slipped over and clamp if thats a better option to hang the turbo I don't know.
