Our New Turbo For The K-Swapped Mini Jet Boat!

[@christianbuczko1481]

Dont fit weight ballast, fit an empty tank you can fill and empty easily depending on passengers. You could fit a water pump to fill it up to balance the boat and drain to empty it.

[@TheRowe789]

Have you considered using stick on reflective heat barrier on the bottom of the rear seats to help keep them cooler as well? It works really well to keep header temp from transferring to the interior of our circle track cars.

[@aletzr]

Also makin little heat shield under the seat with some air between the seat and that heat shield. That would help a lot.

[@jeremyharr2328]

I suggest doing some research on Marine cooling systems before you install the Y in the waterline. Typically everything in a marine cooling system runs in series and it comes in from the pump and goes directly into the exhaust first in order to preheat the water so the engine can reach operating temp. Since heat is partially what drives the turbo you don’t want the cylinder head too cold .Also, you should have a water pressure regulator. The jet boat builders looking pretty awesome. I love the wrap design that you guys chose. Keep up the good work.

[@ChristopherGuilday]

He’s in Florida, the water temps are almost always 90F+ except in the winter, which I doubt they’d be boating much in the winter. Plus it will be going through the intercooler which will be very hot from the turbo.

[@bdubz_det]

@@ChristopherGuilday 90+ water temps LOL

[@mycosys]

Probably also some research on how turbos work too, turbos work on heat, adding a cooling water jacket before the turbo is robbing it of heat and hence power. If they REALLY wanted to cool the exhaust stream there they shoudl be using pre-turbo exhaust water injection - that converts heat into volume and would be one of few ways to actually make more power form exhaust cooling. Primary exhaust cooling should be after the turbo (which again, should assist its thermodynamic efficiency).

[@johndalton9170]

@FAKE_ ROACH 3 90° water temp isn't going to kill all the fish. I was a dive instructor in Thailand and we could get temp that high in the ocean some days.

[@pw383426]

Not true on performance jet boats. The problem is the more power you make the more water pressure you'll get from the jet. Some people install a gate valve at the jet. But most, myself included, Y off from the jet. One water hose for the engine and one water hose the exhaust (headers on my boat, 468ci BBC). If you dont run multiple water outlets and keep the engine cool, the more likely you are to damage gaskets or seals. Especially the head gasket.

[@mcgregor711]

Usually In jet boats. We run the water from the pump to the exhaust manifold then to the engine and then out. It helps put a little heat in the engine.

[@coreycollins420]

A boat mechanics tip: you should think about putting a check valve in the exhaust to keep any water from running back into the turbo/exhaust manifold and possibly the engine. If the exhaust exit is above the turbo, once you shut the engine off the water is gonna want to flow backwards. If the exit is below the waterline, water pressure will push water back into the turbo, etc.

[@5cardpimp]

[@numinous4789]

The lower level of heat energy in the exhaust manifold will negatively impact the turbo’s performance, though I understand why it’s necessary. It’ll be interesting to see how the setup performs overall. Exciting stuff!

[@alphazuluz]

I commented this as well. Cooling the exhaust before the turbo is a bad idea. Will it still make boost? Of course. But it will make less and spool at a higher rpm with the cooled manifold. Also, the cylinder head is going to be running cold with the water going into the engine first. It will probably still scream, but it could be better.

[@Mi-ck]

Came here to say the same. Heat adds energy. Most people don’t realize it matters to have hot exhaust gasses.

[@mycosys]

The really crappy thing is it doesnt have to - turbos work on mass flow and pressure differential. Pre-turbo water injection is a thing. They could be cooling the exhaust charge by converting water to steam which reduces the heat but massively increases the mass and pressure. It looks like that water jacket is even designed to partly discharge into the exhaust after pre-heating the water. Also they should be suing the hot water post the engine so it evaps more readily.

[@jacobboone6078]

Yeah… the whole thermodynamics thing is important!

[@alphazuluz]

@@mycosys I agree that if the water was entering the exhaust stream and evaporating it would be a positive due to the massive expansion of the water into steam. It would create a huge spike in exhaust volume and mass flow. But it appears the water is separate, and just sapping exhaust energy. It’s cooling the exhaust charge, which lowers exhaust pressure, lowering the pressure differential across the turbo.

[@josephgaribaldi2462]

@BoostedBoiz Kyle, I suggest adding a layer of heat insulation on the inside of the cover for the engine. Insulating the aluminum will make sure radiant heat does get the metal hot. Awesome build as awlways!

[@gerardbordeleau9205]

Hi guys, about the oil pump, you pump it 10 times and it create vacuum in the tank, you let it suck !!!! Great built. Cheers

[@thebadfarmer]

The exhaust flap is a great idea. We use similar equipment on our commercial salmon boats up here in Alaska. When you have a 15' wave trying to push it's way up your tailpipe while towing a 900' net off of the beach, those make all the difference. I'm sure it's gonna help with whipping $hittys

[@thebadfarmer]

Also, if you tap a bung into the bottom of the oilpan, then route a line up, it's easy to hook a drill powered fluid pump up to change your oil.

Running cold water over the exhaust will take a ton of heat from the exhaust and may slow down your spooling. No idea how much but the heat is crucial in the density of gases goin through the turbo.. good luck! Cant wait to see the results

[@melvininman6226]

Is it mph when it's on water?

[@slashnburndotcodotuk]

A bit concerned that cooling the exhaust gases prior to the turbo will affect the density of the gasses leading to reduced boost. FWIW I think you should go with a wrapped branch manifold, and maybe put the cooler post turbo. Although you could probably just wrap the rest of the exhaust to keep engine bay temps down. I don't think it matters how hot the exhaust gasses are once they exit the exhaust. I'm betting the manifold cooler will go...

[@rampageoutdoors]

You can hook a horse that has a plug on the end to the oil drain and have it so it reaches out the water drain for the boat then when you're done you shove it back in the boat. Keep up the amazing work

Having worked on marine applications you seriously need to brace that turbo. Just hanging off the inlet and exhaust will not hold it. Vibration and harmonics will fracture welds. Either ally brace from Hull or hanger from engine required.

[@riderzinc]

Because it’s enclosed with no airflow the exhaust temps get super hot, that’s why they do it on boats and skis, keeps the temps down in the engine compartment

[@bobbyholmes3985]

Easy tip for changing oil in an inboard engine. Put a lockable cutoff plug on the oil pan . Then make a tub long enough to screw to the cutoff that can pass throw the drain plug hole. When you need to change the oil hook up the tub, put drain pan at the back of the boat and unlock the valve and drain the oil out of your engine. The reason for the lockable plug valve is so no accidents ever happen to drain while riding in the boat. Yep old boat guy tricks. Hope it helps.

[@EDCIndiana]

Awesome video. I think you should just add another fuel tank to the passenger side. You could build in a transfer pump to easily adjust your ballast. Plus you could fill the new tank with e85 if you wanted. Just switch to your other tune and tank and boom race ready in seconds, and your more balanced.

[@4040pmora]

Make sure you have a saltwater anode on the body of the boat. Alum will form electrolysis. Also on our sailboat motor oil changes we use a cheap drill operated drill pump and suck oil from dipstick tube..makes life much easier.

I think the silicone coupler is a good idea for the exhaust. I have two on my motorcycle to connect the mufflers to the mid-pipe. It's a cheap simple solution that adds some flexibility. After 2 years there's zero damage. That silicone is fine up to 400-500 degrees. If in doubt use a temperature gun

[@craigsmachines6705]

You could have a an e85 tank on the turbo side to help with the weight distribution, get another dual injector intake manifold and bam E85 on demand for the race and pump gas for cruising

[@jamessands2190]

Kyle and Wyatt you mentioned a E85 tune out a smaller tank on passenger side with E85 so you can have it plummed with off n on valve to switch it easy.. or if there's enough room 2 sets of injectors so when it's wide open it will change over to E85 kinda like how mullet went from pump to ethanol or what ever race gas he had with just flooring it or past certain rpm can't remember exactly how he had his car just couple ideas

[@customautomarine]

Next time the motors out, maybe you can replace drain plug with a fitting & hose that you can attach to a pump to do oil changes. On some boats we would run the oil drain out of the drain plug & attach it with a little cable to pull out.

[@4runrJay]

Kyle, look into the Fumoto valves to replace oil plugs, connect your line to it and leave it in the engine bay. Oil changes should be a breeze after that, especially if you get the air pump to suck it out.

[@robboss1839]

I use to do manual vacuumed pump oil changes through my dipstick on my outboards but a $10 Amazon oil transfer pump was a game changer. Same process but no pumping. Just clamp off to the positive on the starter and ground out on the block, then sit back and let it do it’s thing

[@cleric670]

Weld a service bung onto the side of the oil pan next time you have it off, 90 degree it up somewhere accessible then thread a plug onto the top. Use it to suck oil out of the crankcase in the future. Use a 12v scavenge pump to suck out the crankcase, super easy and pretty cheap. You could even leave it plumbed in full-time and just turn it on when you need to do an oil change, if not use some stiff plastic tube (pex water pipe works great btw it won't collapse even under really strong vacuum and I've never had it degrade from oil on it) to run down the service pipe.

[@rickyt310]

I worked at a marina a few years back, we took a pail and mounted a small 12v pump to the lid and clamps for the battery. Pump oil from engine into the pail.. Drilled some extra holes in the lid for draining the filter and we had all we needed to change oil. Took minutes and we were done

[@Godscountry2732]

As others have suggested, brace the turbo off the manifold and apply some NASA approved (Moon, Mars) Dupont Polyimide Gold Kapton heat insulation film to the seat cover assembly.Wyatts truck with a custom color paint or 3M wrap ? would look real nice towing the Jet boat at SEMA 2023.A million plus eyes can really boost the bottom line for a company,business that might what to sponsor the bodywork,paint,wrap,etc for Wyatt/Kyle/BoostedBoiz SEMA display.

[@andrewplumb6059]

For the water cooled manifold, perhaps some bent aluminum tubing would be more appropriate than hoses for the water lines? At least for the last foot or so?

[@bullhead360]

First: The job of the water jacketed manifold is not to cool exhaust gasses, it’s to cool the manifold itself. Will the gasses be cooler? Yes, but not as much as you guys are thinking. Second: Pre-turbo water injection is not an option. That will destroy the O2 sensor. Third: This thing will generate heat so coolant FLOW is important. Coolant PRESSURE can be detrimental. In the big block/jet world we keep them under 12psi. Fourth: What helps spool a turbo? LOAD. To equate a jet boat application to a car, imagine loading down the OG Civic, hook it to a loaded trailer, then drive it up the Ike Gauntlet with your foot to the floor the whole time. There will be PLENTY of heat in that exhaust to spool that turbo.

[@hazadus2u]

Perhaps running the water through the exhaust first and then into the engine will help the engine be at a better operating temp🤷

Definitely brace the turbo and the manifold could benefit from some bracing too, I found if you're bumping around a lot the entire exhaust system is prone to cracks.

Hi gyes killing it man. Glad to see that you put a good trap on the exsaust elbow. In most boats as long as the out side water or river or whatever is lower than the bottom of the elbow water shouldn't flow back into exsaust system. Thank's man keep it going.

[@aaronhowe3523]

Exhaust gas temperature affects gas velocity which will impact the performance of the turbo. If the exhaust header is too efficient at cooling it could rob you of boost due to the reduced efficient of the turbo with the cooler gases. If it was me I'd probably Cerakote a normal stainless header to keep the heat in it but away from the seat above. You could also put a reflective heat shield on the base of the seat.

[@stratdude83]

Got a lot of weight on that 90 degree exhaust bend and as far out it's hanging. It will probably be okay, but might want to consider some thicker wall tubing on that first exhaust transition to the turbo. The impacts on the water might be a problem there.

Literally killed the hot XD. Turbos run on heat. Would have made a lot more sense to use pre-turbo exhaust water injection (which exchanges heat for a massive volume and mass increase) and to the primary exhaust cooling after the turbo where the cooling would assist the efficiency

Marine engines run water from the jet/ pump into the exhaust manifold first to preheat the water, the warm water then runs into the engine..

[@kylecurry6841]

Being it's an inboard, where these are traditionally based on automotive sourced engines, why the need for water cooling the exhaust like an outboard? I mean don't get me wrong, maybe I missed an episode, and it's cool it mimics an outboard in this way, but wouldn't the water-cooled manifold result in less thermal energy that's usually preferred in the sense as to why moving a turbo closer to the exhaust port outlets result's in quicker spooling?
