Hey John! Unfortunately you can't use a driver's side cast exhaust manifold on the passenger side because it hits the oil pump when facing forward. You can use 2x passenger side manifolds and keep the turbo on the passenger side though. That's what most normal people do and what I'd recommend anyone else to do also. Thanks for watching mate and Goodluck if you decide to make a set for yourself.

Nah you don't flip that one at all, you end up leaving passenger side pointing backwards like standard and then route the piping back under and forwards towards the turbo flange. You'll have to hard 180° out of the manifold flange, go under the engine mount and then then pop up behind oil pump to where your turbo flange will be. Pretty straight forward just a bit of fiddling around.

Plenty more to come Ashtin! Got at least 3 Holden V8 powered cars to build at this stage, and I'm sure there will be others. VT engine has sequential injection as opposed to batch fire (not that this will matter here, will be running aftermarket ECU and coil on plug ignition with sequential injectors.) The VT engine also has the hydraulic roller camshaft whereas this one is a flat tappet design, and also a redesigned head combustion chamber which bumped them up slightly in compression. Otherwise, very similar.

Hey Tyler. Essentially at a minimum you'll need to fabricate turbo manifolds, dump pipe, and intercooler piping. Pick up a turbo, wastegate, 600x300x76 intercooler, stall converter (if auto), upgraded injectors and fuel pump, and find someone who can tune the factory ECU. Individual parts selection will be dependant on your power goals and application. There is no "one size fits all" method, in fact there are 100 different ways to skin this cat.

I have just not long had aftermarket 20thou oversized piistons and that put in the block and also had a stage 3 camkit with chip installed aswell, so everything aftermark in engine and have extractors aswell. What are your thoughts, should i turbo or supercharge it. Seen ur vid n got me thinking i can do all that myself looks easy for me having engineering expernce. What size u think bebest turbo for it and what boost should run at?
@TorqHub
@TorqHub 2 жыл бұрын
Hey Michael! Choosing your power adder is totally a personal preference in our opinion and really should be chosen on what type of driving you do. If you're handy on the welder then a turbo can be a good option as you can buy a turbo and wastegate etc for a lot less than a blower kit. It is hard to go past the latest harrop supercharger kit's though as they make great power and are a bolt on solution. As for turbo sizing, something in the 66 to 70mm compressor inducer range is a great start with plenty of headroom to make some decent power on the street. Let us know which way you'd go we love to see some updates on the rig. Thanks for watching mate.

@TorqHub
@TorqHub 3 жыл бұрын
Hey Daniel, unfortunately you can't use 2x drivers side manifolds as the drivers side manifold will hit the oil pump on the passenger side of the engine. What you can do and what I have done before is, when putting turbo on passenger side, do the crossover pipe at the front of the engine using the 2x passenger manifolds and just route the passenger side manifold runner back towards the front of the car/ turbo. You go underneath the engine mount and around the oil pump. Hope this makes sense man. Goodluck

On this particular setup I managed to just squeeze that 4 inch dump in there but I then just split it to twin 3 under the car to retain good ground clearance. Im not sure the oval piping would have worked any better in this particular situation. There's some dump pipe fabrication to be done in the latest project ute we're doing so we'll see where we land on that one, may need to take a look at some oval maybe!

Yes, we are die hard Holden v8 guys here on the channel mate. We must just enjoy doing things the hard way.. haha. I tell you what, there has never been a better time to be alive when it comes to the availability of aftermarket performance parts for the holden v8! From blower kits to cylinder heads, aftermarket engine blocks to a plethora of intake manifolds. Options are aplenty. It's great to see!!. Thanks so much for watching Mark, there's plenty more coming up so be sure to stick around! Cheers

...that 355 vk in the fullboost clip has no less than 15k in the motor alone... b4 the turbo... i know, i've got 1 😂 iron lions dont like more than 500hp flywheel on stock internals, they are notoriously sloppy from factory ie castings/tolerances etc. Don't bother unless its just a burnout car cause when u try get that thing to bite the prep with 12pounds or more on a 275 its gonna scatter, maybe not immediatly, but soon 😂

Matt's vk in the clip did go fast on the stock cast manifolds with a t4 gtx4202 though, before he changed to a 4 into 1 collector style manifold and then eventually an 80mm borgwarner turbo. This video is just about turbo manifolds, and highlighting how simple it can be done. The rest of the engine/ turbo combo will obviously determine your power potential.. people have, can and will continue to make low to mid 400 wheel hp on stock motors with cam and springs through an auto. Thanks so much for watching and interacting in the comments mate, its great to see the Holden v8 guys are still out there. we love seeing it. Cheers

Plenty of blokes making big HP in the US on an 8.2 deck windsor on a modest budget mate. That's what makes doing an E series Falcon one day REALLY attractive to us haha.

I know you did Azza, I remember the blue vl quite fondly from the street commodore and Calais turbo days.. It May be a case of late to the party, but its still a 100 percent relevant party to attend we believe. At the end of the day, this was just a video sharing information for others to draw inspiration and ideas from and if one person ends up doing something similar then that's great. Thanks for watching Azza.

Is there a way to do one of these setups without butchering the guards?? i'm not a fan of cutting up the old girl and im sure many others are the same, can't imagine engineers etc like it either... could a setup work where you do sort of symmetrical exhausts which meet the turbo in the middle in front of the water pump area? otherwise, great series looking forward to watching more!

You can certainly get away with not cutting a hole in the front of the strut tower like I have done. There really isn't much room in front of the engine to mount a turbo in between with radiator and fans etc but you could relocate the radiator to the rear if you really wanted to do that. Most people will mount turbo on passenger side and put the dump through the engine bay sheet metal behind the strut tower. You can also mount the turbo "east west" on the passenger side and route dump pipe under the air box tray and back through in between suspension strut and engine bay on the outside too. Tonnes of different options to choose from, like I said in the video, you just pick your battles and go from there. Thanks for watching Veganstein!
