Scottys Garage - 12s for $2k - Part-12 - Fitting a Maxpeedingrods GT45 Turbo

[@tmmtmm]

GT45? Rods out for $2k 💪💣

[@olibomb6560]

Saw that bigger turbo and was punching the air !!! 😂

[@blakamin]

That little welding table has turned out to be pretty awesome!

[@blownhemi]

Yeah, it's been super handy

[@LV-FOURTWENTYSIX]

The best part of turbos, it doesnt matter what the manifold looks like as long as it send exhaust to the turbo it'll spin. Go scottys frankenturbo.

[@seanedwards1838]

Lol dam man, it's such a Frankenstein build haha I love it

[@blownhemi]

Yeah, it's so ugly that it's cool

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

Can't wait for next Monday to see how you went. Just hoping the juice was worth the squeeze.

[@gardenwaster]

Falconoath Performance runs an 11.4 👍 Scotty adds a bigger Turbo at the last minute, good luck

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

Absolutely nothing wrong with that adapter. It doesn't have to be billet to work well. Really happy to see you doing some fab work over just buying something. Would really love to see you make you own manifold down the track.

[@blownhemi]

Yeah, it would be interesting to see how I'd go with making my own manifold

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

@@blownhemi I think you will find it easier to make than you think. Sometimes it can take so much modification trying to make something existing work, that it is just easier to start from scratch.

[@Atleysprogram]

yeh boy. lets go. cant wait to see how she pulls. that turbo's huge hahaha

[@jimclarke1108]

Nothing bad about big pumpin, 12 seconds and its all over😁

[@TankyMcStagger]

28:08 oh no, the forbidden xylophone 🤣

Still good progress, Scotty, even though 2 ignition leads broke. Scotty's Garage Style. ❤

[@hespie1]

Nice work Scotty, love the Turbo.

[@marcduthie4327]

Looking great. Hopefully Sunday went well. I couldn't make it. Have a good week. Marc.

33:22 thats a good message even proper builds need to hear

[@michaelbyrnes7944]

Love every minute of this build cool as

[@tturi2]

4:37 the mega projects guitar riff 😅, this is a mega-project Scotty

[@Rhubarb237]

Best vid yet 🙌🏻 I think you found the best option for turbo fitment and great welding for a home job. The big GT45 unit is a far better choice and hopefully does the work for that 12sec pass!

[@trevevns3242]

I think Scotty's going low 10s if not high 9s if the trans holds

[@mrivantchernegovski3869]

Hard and fast just use the stock pipe flange to manifold to join the T4 flange ,its a abrupt transition but it works and another pipe flange to stock mani fold weld pipes so got a flange on one end then weld T4 flange on the other flange cheap as ,brace turbo with Falcon front sway bar links and remove rubbers for a couple of nuts and make small mount plates and some brackets to body bingo sorted lol

[@trevorhunter374]

I was waiting for you to lick the turbo haha. Good job mate

[@blownhemi]

I know, I should have!

Hearing "French Scotty" is most amusing 😆

[@st8jkt69]

Stepping it up already 👌

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

Hmmm not sure if I fully agree with you there Scotty on your reasoning with the .63 rear housing. I am not a big believer in big 1.0+ rear housings because they are generally for dyno queens. For the drag ute, sure no problem you have the ECU to make the boost curve bend to your will, you have a transbrake to allow you to build boost, you have a built convertor / transmission to take that kind of launch power. You are building essentially a street car with boost, so you can't do any of the things the ute can do. I am a big believer in the .6x rear housing (owned several). For a street car you want a car that ramps in the power in a more linear fashion, this is what you need to maintain traction on a tyre limited car, and to get the car off the line quickly. Top end power looks impressive on the dyno, but doesn't necessarily equate to a quick ET if you have to wait for that power to ramp in then it buzzes into wheel spin because it comes in too fast. If you are bending rods with a .63 housing then there is a serious issue in the tune, or fuel, not the compressor housing. I proved beyond a doubt that you can make more boost with a big turbo at a lower RPM than a standard turbo and it be perfectly happy, and have it drive like it had a stock turbo on it.

[@blownhemi]

I might test it one day, but for now, I'll go with the big turbo

[@ChrisTopher-cy8ph]

Is the 6 pack for Ben's welding in the budget???

[@blownhemi]

I'll have to find out what he drinks

[@honestpat7789]

This is now looking like a wild science experiment and you put a spoiler up on ig showing it at hpr 😮

[@bigal878]

Great job 👍🇦🇺

[@madazgq]

So did anyone actually make it yesterday to the drags? Happy Australia Day for yesterday everyone. Watching this with a sore head 😅

[@blownhemi]

@@madazgq about 9 challenge cars

[@madazgq]

@blownhemi Awesome! Can't wait to see how it panned out. I have a 05 BA XR6 ute I was going to do it with. But the silver top is too tired and it's my daily so I'm getting a gassy refreshed to boost and do a motor swap. Stock N/A I made it go 15.5 at Perth Motorplex in November of all months so can't wait to have boost on board 👍

[@RAYtheram]

Not going to look for the early update, I'll wait till the actual video drops.

[@davydoo81]

Just drill and tap the rocker cover and put a brass barbed fitting on..

[@blownhemi]

@davydoo81 I could have done that, but big tap's are expensive too

[@davydoo81]

@@blownhemithat’s true.. but you keep them forever..

[@tturi2]

another option is to drain into the pcv bung

[@71honky]

could you turn turbo 180 so exhaust faced forward then the outlet would line straight up with inlet manifold

[@blownhemi]

You could but there's no benefit

[@tony66au]

Well THAT was unexpected :-) Sooooo No 100 shot of NOS then Scott? Get the turbo spinning earlier lol

[@blownhemi]

@tony66au would be nice but not in the budget

[@wafive]

Did he make it to the strip?

[@blownhemi]

I did, that video is next week

[@justinfargas2367]

I wish my spark plugs on the R8 LSA were that easy to take on and off. Great video. Thanks.

[@blownhemi]

Yeah, they were surprisingly easy

[@neilperry2224]

Scottie get a lazy Susan for a Chinese meal . Get them from ikea in various sizes [that's what she said]. Or an old turntable, put a sacrificial plate on the turntable, and you have a controllable welding tool.

[@blownhemi]

Good idea

[@lachlanwoods3940]

How do you earth it properly though??? 🤔🤔

[@Low760]

Those valve springs are going to float so well i reckon unfortunately. Will be interesting to see for tommorrow.

[@blownhemi]

When we did the black AU on Carnage we never touched the valve springs and they were fine. They're better than Barra valve springs.

[@lukeberne428]

Stock valve springs have been pushed over 400hp

[@J.skitz40]

20:51 checking your watch i see

[@blownhemi]

Hair past a freckle

[@jrbuch]

I mean, it is a 4.0 engine, so it should certainly be able to handle a GT45... GT35 would spool quick and be fine for say a 2.5 - 3.0 engine..

[@blownhemi]

@@jrbuch yep

[@tturi2]

​@@blownhemiwhat did you do for the cold side intercooler pipes? I would like to replicate that on my ef

[@MaxwellMcRoberts]

Hi Scotty, my welding would take a lot of practice to be that good, but if you knew me you would not feel any better.

[@myrx2]

If the barra flange is $190 and the t3 to t4 is about $90 then go the second option and save $100

[@blownhemi]

@@myrx2 nah, you need both to do it that way, so more expensive

[@E-Z_Gaming]

lol what a waste of time.

[@blownhemi]

Why is that?

[@E-Z_Gaming]

@ you’re using a j3 i assume, and i saw 1000cc injectors. So why wouldn’t you just run the 1.06 rear housing on the 35. This is going to be so lazy and not 60ft without a big stall and or nitrous. You can get a 1.7 60ft with a 35 and a stock converter.

[@blownhemi]

@@E-Z_Gaming did you see the clearance issues of the 1.06 housing on the GT35?

[@E-Z_Gaming]

@ if you can’t fit a gt35 on a Sohc something is wrong with you

[@blownhemi]

@E-Z_Gaming wrong sort of clearance issue. Sorry, I don't have the time or the crayons to explain this to you. Go back and watch the video with the GT35
