Put some sort of bonnet scoop/ fresh air when driving so it blows on the screw charger, you will be surprised at the temp drop. Keep up the good show. Love it

[@watsisbuttndo829]

Merry Christmas to everybody at carnage and their families. Thanks for letting us follow along on the experiments, im sure those small blower pullies will supply us with much content and mirth next year ,cheers mate.

[@CRFLAus]

I love the evolution of the Carnage cars. Each one of them waiting in line for more mods, like Turbo Taxi sitting there waiting it's turn to run 10's. Merry Christmas Scotty and Matt!

[@HazeyAuto]

I like your “That’s a 2022 problem” approach… I’ve been using it for six months with anything car related. Merry Christmas to Scotty and the SM crew.

[@agro8111]

Awesome way to wake up on my holiday morning, Thanks Scotty!

[@lodeo001]

Good work Scotty, had a great chuckle with the silicone bends! Keep up the good work!

[@JIMBOB-zg1rc]

A VERY INTERESTING TEST . love the make shift set up , great fun doing stuff like that , looking forward to your next vid

[@gavinb9627]

At least you didn't run with the scissors Have a Happy and Safe Christmas. Thank you so much for the entertainment throughout the year!

[@terrytsagatzones3132]

Morning Scotty can't wait to see the Difference love you're work Buddy

[@jrbuch]

Scotty you madman. This is amazing! Have a great Christmas - look forward to the dyno and more Carnage in 2022

[@geoffbollinger8639]

Love your work mate. Can't wait to see it on the dyno and what those hoses do! 😄

[@camcurtis2628]

Mate, I'm waiting for this to happen. WOW. Enjoy your Christmas, Scotty and family.

[@Devastator0]

Love the work as always Scotty! I hope that you and everyone on the Carnage & StreetMachine crew have a great Christmas! I was so bummed that the Haltech birthday bash was cancelled, I was really looking forward to going and being able to say hi and get a pic in person. Hopefully the event will be re-scheduled and can say hi in person then!

[@Degekoify]

Great stuff as usual mate, looking forward to the dyno video. Good to see non industry standard stuff to get the job done.

[@lancegraham7722]

Merry Christmas guys. Thanks for another great year of fun and carnage. Oh, scotty, that intercooler set up is, well, totally munted....PERFECT👍👍🍻

[@jc7654]

some funny stuff Scotty , cheers for the laughter you made my day 🤣👍

[@Doc_in_the_carpet_truck]

Great way to start the Holidays Scotty!! That is a pisser with the silicon suck in on start up also love the reference to the fighting with family for the weekend. Hope you and family have a great one👍🍻 beers beers beers !!!

[@darrylcampbell4411]

Awesome Scotty. Shes comin together. Those intercooler hoses really had me cracking up. Bloody engines. Cant wait to Monday. But I have too. Have a great christmas dude with your family. From NZ.

[@BOSPWR]

what a setup scotty, looks the goods :P All the best for Christmas guys, cant wait for Mondays efforts.

[@MrRippinonyou]

Perfect way to start the day Scotty Merry Christmas mate , Super mang is the best V6 Commodore ever built !

[@honestpat7789]

Well that turned into an episode of Rick & Marty by the end! There’s also another supercharged mang on the tube. It’s running 10s, but with a blue bottle in the boot. Can definitely see supermang doing 11s when everything is sorted. Have a safe and merry Xmas Scotty

[@bobroberts2371]

2:53 " . . .Oh No. . Mister Bill ... NNNNNOoooooooo...."

[@mydogzty]

hey mate any chance of a link or title name of that other build video?

[@brushitoff503]

SUPERMANG just got "Manged" ha ha! Love it Scotty keen to see what happens next Cheers!

[@johnzadkovich2990]

Love the external mounted charge-cooler; very JDM bosozoku style!

[@wingoson]

Merry Christmas to Scotty and all of the street machine crew, and also everybody.

[@kennethsmith3260]

That looks a little untamed but can't wait to see it on the dyno. Another great video 👏 👍 👌

[@touchmynuggetballs7302]

I love everything about this set-up 🤷

[@michaelb5330]

Charge cooler ? Intercooler issues hmmmmm Scott you always make interesting real videos with real world issues on the cars Outstanding

[@ants3503]

Merry Christmas Scotty and family another awesome video definitely a bit more controlled the normal no hammer involved for clearance 🍻🍻

[@67wogval]

Looks like you need to replace the silicon joiners with custom pipework to me. Merry Christmas mate, great content you have brought us through out the year too. 🍻

[@roodog4wd]

Great video guys. Merry Christmas to all.

[@felixmatt34]

Whata glorious beast

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

Merry Christmas Scotty to you and yours. I hope it is a joyful one.

[@CHINGY1993]

Love this series cant wait to see how much the IAT drop and how much extra power yous make from intercooling it

[@speedymini998]

MacGyver Christmas to you too Scotty! Love the can do, she'll be right mate approach.

[@wayneholzer4694]

Supermang goes next level to Frankenmang I couldn't believe those silicone joins sucking in from the intake vacuum that was a first for me to see silicone joins do that I think it looks like you will be welding the proper piping and using silicone joins where they won't be sucked in I know you have a upgraded cam of which I would of thought it would of lowered the vacuum in the manifold but Supermang must have some good compression just a guess but I thought when I saw it before the water plumbing was done it actually looked like a serious mean machine I can't wait to see the dyno figures and again you cut the episode short leave us hanging on the edge of our seats dammit fingers crossed lets see a performance increase :)

[@benvanbaak]

Keep them comming

[@brendannunya77]

Merry Christmas Scotty!

[@johnkirkilis34]

Merri Christmas to all staff at Carnage. Glad you're not screwing up the original bonnet Scotty very hard to find, especially the underlay. ❤️😃👍

[@5thgearouttahere]

Hope Scotty and fam, Special K and the whole yt crew have a great Christmas and 2022.

[@damonbamford7231]

Merry Christmas and happy new year legends! And i like the nudge bar, gives it abit more of a sleeper look 👌

[@michaelnoyes4817]

Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@brett1983]

Merry Xmas boys, can't wait for the dyno run 👌

[@Andy-pb4jg]

Merry Christmas to u n ya fam. See u next yr

[@monaromark1021]

Yes a group A bonnet painted red would look good. Also I think a big German arobics instructor with a whip is needed. She could supervise Scotty doing a run around the factory block in Dandy every morning before he starts work. Because after Christmas you will be carrying to much weight to make the VN go faster. Also you don't want to have to strengthen the driver's seat or shorten the steering column so you can fit in it.

[@pauliusgruodis137]

Merry Chritsmas! Santa Scotty brought us a new episode.

[@jenibond]

Happy Christmas Scotty and everyone at carnage , I am enjoy your video with Buffalo Trace and coke (as you can't get wild turkey easily at the min in UK) Hope you have great time with family and friends of the holidays Love Jenifer xxxxx PS Please get taxi back out soon !

[@STREETMACHINETV]

No Wild Turkey!

[@stevenJEDI3]

Had a good laugh at the end with how Budgie it all looked For the Dyno run looking forward to seeing the end result

[@IJ-E36]

Lmao at the Silicones, followed by another Scotty "Mongtage", cracking Me up guy, I ran the Barrel coolers on Supras many years ago, they don't flow nearly as much as they say! Have an awesome Christmas Bloke!

[@gogetem188]

HAY BUDDY DID the same to me turbo holden cruze diesel up graded the inter cooler man it cost me $900 never overheats so happy about that

[@alexfehlberg1065]

That was Fucking hilarious. The intake tubes collapsing had me in tears.

[@deveous_dave]

I had the same issues with silicone bends on my supercharged 1uz Soarer. Alloy bends and straight silicone couplers is what you need.

[@A.R.C.77]

Merry xmas man 😁🤘

[@stevezurek7281]

Looks dodgy as Scotty LOL,I’ve done it myself.Prototypes always do.As y said the final fit out comes later.See what happens on the dyno good luck mate.Merry Xmas to y and your family 🇦🇺👍

[@chrismckay8349]

I love a late Xmas present

[@gileshamilton4462]

Hi there , its a chargecooler not a intercooler but you lknow that you was just testing 😁just a pointer ive seen a few instances of the cores leaking in those bullet type aftercoolers and hydrolicing the engines big time ... love the chanel esp the Trolvo .... come to think of it there all bloody great keep up the good work

[@danielspencer1973]

Merry Christmas Scotty, missed a couple of Hassan CHOP'S there but all g.

[@paulmartin3340]

You bloody tease! That was part of my xmas present!! To see the result. ☹😟 NOT .....HAPPY....JAN ! Lmfao...all good.. better late than never. Cheers and merry Christmas to you all from Sydney. 🇭🇲👍🎅🤶👍🇭🇲

[@STREETMACHINETV]

It's a good episode, worth waiting for

[@PiazzaWoodWorks]

This was epic Scotty can’t wait to see the dyno vid, will you be trying different pulleys in the dyno vid?

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Yep

[@marksinclair3652]

Merry Xmas Scotty cool episode, replace ya silo bends for aluminium ones,and use silo adapter's,might sort out your issue,be safe have a ripper onya mate

[@MafiaboysWorld]

Merry Xmas to you and your whole family Scotty. Another year of CARNAGE in the books. 😎👍 Hopefully in 2022, we finally meet for some 1JZ shenanigans, and maybe some "big block" shitbox action too. 😉

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Thanks mate

[@kermitmotorsports6682]

Merry Christmas Scotty and next year if Sydney drag way decides to do race4real next year could you bring Mr dodgy 😁❤️👍

[@johnmathews7966]

A larger external w2a cooler is the way to go. And weld some elbows to get rid of the silicone. External w2a intercoolers using the a2a plate are the most efficient and see far lower intake temps than the under blower w2a plates. This is on the right track 👌🏼

[@seanhume6160]

Not happy Was so happy I was going to see the dyno then a let down at the end. It's good but got to wait now. Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 Scotty

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Dyno video Monday

[@duckmcf]

No bonnet, with the power adder above the bonnet line. We are GO for full Cleetus spec! You little ripper Scotty!

[@smithy2]

That vacuum issue sucked, metal elbows perhaps 🤔 Merry Christmas Streetmachine crew 🎅🏼👍🏼

[@davidbarnsley8486]

That is fantastic can’t wait to see what happens with those intake pipes I have never seen anything like that before Merry Christmas Scotty hope you have a good family time Now I am waiting for Monday Those pipes were hilarious 😂😂😂👍👍👍🎅🎅 Ps I just had a thought , the smaller pulleys make stop the sucking in of the pipes as there may be more air pressure lower down the rev range

[@kippen64]

Merry Christmas 🎄 to everyone at Carnage.

[@RhysK94]

Bazspec is the man 👌👌👌 Also skip that middle pulley, just go straight to the 2.55" or better yet 2.42". I run the 2.42 with my bazspec setup and an a2a. Is bloody mint like that 👌

[@lazy6608]

Scotty Have a look around for yella terra billet v6 fuel rails Alot nicer looking and removes the hideous lines over the blower.

[@nickl2548]

Dodgy alright! Haha, bring it on!

[@justinlinton4810]

use the 3.89 center from a local skyline sedan. about mid 90's. the square one. super cheap to get

[@zeroyon9]

Scotty, making me feel better about my dodginess since 2015 ....

[@mackaatya7959]

You should put a Tarana reverse cowl scoop

[@Brock_Landers]

Now I don't have alot of experience with Roots style blowers, so I was wondering how you'd intercool one without a sandwich plate style intercooler, but clearly that's the only way to properly intercool a Roots style blower. I live in the States, in the northeast near Pittsburgh, but I have ALWAYS wanted to get my hands on an old Chevy Vega and do a L67 swap on it and modify it. I did have a 2002 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP and it was comfortable and fast, but it was front wheel drive and even stock it suffered from alot of torque steer. My other Roots style blown car was a 1990 Ford Thunderbird SuperCoupe with the 3.8 supercharged V6 and a Mazda M5R2 5 speed manual. It was alot of fun to drive and quick for the time.

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

Torque steer believe it or not has less to do with engine torque than it does proper diff setup and axle lengths.

[@hayden6056]

If you end up doing a rwd swap I can source you a GM M90 with a 90 degree bend for the throttle body , I can't tell you if it'll clear the brake booster though as we're rhd.

[@markgrovenor389]

Merry Christmas Scotty, glad you got a final video out to watch after Christmas celebrations! It might be a trick with camera angles but when you were measuring the bonnet clearance, it looked like the alternator was much higher and further forward. An optical illusion? Since you were doing a bodgy on it, why couldn't you just grind the snout down enough yourself to get the required clearance? It would be hidden under the pulley too.

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Were bodgy but not that bodgy

[@FG-Supercharged]

Hmmm... Water/Meth Injection may have been a better option for intake cooling (and a little more power)? Definitely need to change the diff ratio though.

[@blackieforster7018]

Supermang needs a new name now , frankenmang at the moment haha , Merry Christmas all

[@hespie1]

Hose Monster!!

[@taylorcox5278]

Why not use the 25mm k frame spacer they use for Ls And Barra conversion into these

[@devilminime]

Baz is the go to for l67!

[@ThatAustralianDude]

Kframe spacers to drop engine position?

[@ba.skidderLOCKDOWN]

Xmas tip should go all alloy pipes. Then no balloonage from those siliocon joins but all in all its lookn mang tastic n loving it

[@STREETMACHINETV]

That's always the plan but we were on the clock and needed to knock it out ASAP

[@ba.skidderLOCKDOWN]

@@STREETMACHINETV yeah thats it. But main thing is it works n im loving it. 🤘🤘

[@bryceybigcashews5888]

Was anticipating “Hassan Chop” when I saw the cutters. 🤷‍♂️😝

[@MoSSdoGGz]

Where can I get a snout like this in SA?

[@MrBiteus]

Great work as usual Scotty. My son also is watching you and getting ideas, he wants to supercharge his VS v6 wagon, we put an lsd from a v8 ute, the auto box hated trying to spin the 2 wheels and died. We have a 5sp manual to go in but not sure on flywheel and ecu set up. Any help with whats needed for that would be greatly appreciated.

[@STREETMACHINETV]

My experience with manual Commodores is limited to driving them, unfortunately

[@hayden6056]

You need to mirror balance the solid flywheel to the auto flex plate as the balancing is different. You also really want dowel the crank so you don't snap the 1/4 UNC bolts that hold it on. If it's the getrag box they're not the strongest so you don't want to clutch dump it or power shift gears. You can convert the auto harness to manual just like any other normal vs harness and change the memcal to manual. If it's T5 the vss is different and I've never seen a converted harness and auto pcm that doesn't have stall issues at the lights as pcm doesn't realise you've stopped. I've only seen this a couple times and I don't know if there's a fix. I've just sold a couple T5 harnesses to people that have had the issue.

[@loopyone8347]

All i can say is do it.... its fun 😊 I have a vx wagon that has the l67 in it with the getrag behind it. Also a v8 lsd in the rear 😉 Treat the getrag nicely as mentioned before as they don't appeciate clutch dumps with boost well.. And the t5's 3rd is pretty much made of glass and typically destroys everything else in the box when they fail. Also clutch wise you'll find standard 6 psi pulley. the stock clutch will cope well in my case. 10 psi expect carnage... I snapped the centre splines out of the friction disc 3 days after pulley upgrade. All i did was gear down to get up to speed to enter the freeway.... Hence why i'm running a button clutch for the last 2 years. Crank wise.. i just dowelled the crank at home and sent it. Got insanely lucky about the balancing that should be done. As mine doesn't vibrate but typically isn't the case for others.. I was in a pinch and had to get it running asap... and it was not done

[@shawry65]

Well done, idle bypass not hooked up or ? Cheers

[@STREETMACHINETV]

It's hooked up

[@AussieDaz87]

Haha love this Scotty! That suction is fkn weird though, is the blower bypass working properly?

[@STREETMACHINETV]

To be honest I didn't check, but it's possible it wasn't functioning correctly

[@wobblysauce]

Sounds like another 2022 issue, was almost thinking about the coupler enforcers.

[@guhfluh]

Bypass working has MORE potential to suck the piping closed. It would help keep them pressurized if it wasn't working.

[@leroybrown6946]

Those silicon hoses hahah

[@Dustinielson]

Reckon the throttle body butterfly needs to be in the positive side of your boost to stop your plumbing collapsing.

[@porky3384]

Just bungy cord that box to the roof and send!

[@matsinkal]

Those boost hoses :)oh no

[@stopchangingmyname4017]

Just a thought, why did you go with the A2A plate then into a W2A instead of bunging a W2A plate under the blower? could have eliminated a bunch of the issues you ran in to just to run W2A anyway. Keep up the good work mate, ya vids are entertaining to say the least XD

[@STREETMACHINETV]

They're out of stock of W2A plates

[@kyallbarrington6234]

Space the k frame down it’s the easiest way to get more room under the bonnet

[@callumtrapski6096]

At least you know the engine is healthy with that much vacuum

[@STREETMACHINETV]

True

[@michaelfrench1]

I've seen some epic gains from a barrel cooler, they work just like any w2a set up, just doesn't have the plate under the blower witch again will lead to less clearance for the bonnet 😅. I can't run a intercooler on mine as i haven't found a intercooler plate for a m62 🥲

[@STREETMACHINETV]

Unfortunately Mace is out of stock on under bonnet coolers, but hopefully they'll have more soon

[@boosted_l6787]

@@STREETMACHINETV work out the surface area of the under blower plates mate and that barrel cooler will be miles better

[@DodgyBrothersEngineering]

I was half expecting you to TIG weld an alloy bend on rear pipe near the firewall for better clearance.

[@STREETMACHINETV]

At some point we'll look at that. Just trying some stuff first

[@knight2425]

Is there anyway to lower the engine for more clearance? Love this car and would hate to see any modifications to the bonnet as keeping it all looking stock is pretty cool. Merry Christmas to all at carnage, hope you all have a great day as you well and truly deserve it

[@STREETMACHINETV]

We'll work it out

[@knight2425]

@@STREETMACHINETV have no doubt you will, just don’t break that timing chain as we don’t need the keyboard mechanic know it alls back again

[@GTRRACING393]

On the engine vacumn sucking the hoses in, dosen't the blower have a bypass? so no boost at idle & under light load, if you where to lockout the bypass would stop it. would work till make a proper intake piping with alloy or steel tube & bends, OR maybe truck turbo hoses, tend to be stiffer/thicker wall,

[@STREETMACHINETV]

The blower has a bypass, when we do it properly we'll do full alloy piping.
