eBay Twin Turbo Install Porsche | Subaru EZ30 Flat 6 into Porsche Engine Swap | Blasphemy Build 28

[@SB-vb8ch]

Smaller cut outs would be my vote. Ideally needs some sort of trim/edge to make it look like it's meant to be there rather than just a random cut out. Something billet or made from extrusions welded & dressed back which could also hold some very open mesh would look great. Very cool concept.

[@rennch.]

Agreed. Just "proof of concept" at this point.

[@GotMilkRS13]

I think the holes are to big for those turbos and the turbos need to be closer to those holes. But I’d go with no visible turbos. Otherwise good work

[@rennch.]

The turbos will definitely be closer to the holes, and I'm experimenting with hole size. Thanks for the feedback.

[@LukeHuxham]

Little bit of black metal mesh over the turbo holes will look super clean, good job!

[@Hangin_With_Shane]

Michael, absolutely cool! The "Peek a Boo" effect looks awesome and closely resembles your artwork! Keep up the great work!

[@rennch.]

Thanks Shane! needs a bit of refinement, but I'm digging it so far.

[@jasonpeters8580]

Totally agree that the “peek a boo” is trick! It’s cool to see your vision for the “electro-mod” & definitely think it’s not run of the mill look.

[@alexlongpre4527]

The peekaboo is totally bitchin'. I love the way they kinda give a nod to the bumperless Porsche race cars where you see the whole exhaust system, but with a high level of refinement. Can't wait to see it finished. It's going to be awesome.

[@rennch.]

That's the idea Alex! Just a little sumpin' sumpin'. :)

[@HomeBuiltByJeff]

Looking great mate. It is definitely going to be loud. Also great tip on the head torch on the welding helmet. Fantastic idea.

[@rennch.]

Oh, it'll be loud alright. I'll solve that when the time comes.

[@jlm582]

I think the idea is great. You might want to make the holes not as wide though. The height is good. This project is going awesome!

[@rennch.]

I am on board with that thinking

[@KiwiFisher01]

I think it so awesome that you put an EZ30 in an old porsche, so cool!

[@rennch.]

Yea, it gets more fun every day!

[@sammm700]

holy cow, that looks utterly brilliant. maybe put a grill or mesh infront of the turbos to protect them but still have them visible? cannot wait to see them in action!!

[@zudgo]

Deep admiration for this build and your tenacity for moving forward.

[@bakersgarage7332]

Inspiring me for my fabrication work on my 914. Keep it up.

[@robertferrell8518]

Very INSPIRATIONAL!!!!! I’m starting my own total restoration project!!!! Thanks 👍👍👍👍👍

[@johansnyman7921]

Epic project. I love the EZ30 engine. Any projects with them fascinates me. Keep going. Cant wait to hear it roling.

[@michaelwillette5738]

Very cool! I will be watching with great interest. I too am in the early stages of a similar project using a '68 vw T3 squareback. I am using a 2.2 EJ22 with twin T03/T04e Chinese turbos. I will do a crossbar rear support and slip jointed pipes. The bar will mount to an alternator fabrication. The turbos will be able to swing. I intend to soft mount the ends of the bar to the bumper mounts using sway bar end bushings. All the air cooling ducting is going away. It will be a wide body. The rear panel is to be a 'glass surround and removable to service the air filters. How do you intend to scavenge the turbo drain oil? I plan to use a collector and an electric pump. Twin air/liquid intercoolers, 935 style plenums and twin throttle bodies. Also water/meth injection. Tanks in the back seat area. This will ditch the swing axle rear in favor of a 5 link F1 style suspension. A Megasqirt 3 will power the package. Twin a arm ft. Suspension is in the works. Keep it up!

[@butterfliesandtape]

Now I'm REALLY keen to know where the intercooling and the engine cooling figures. Those turbos are BEASTS Mike! Having Mike Brewer on should've dragged in another 20 or 30 views at least :) just proves the algorithm doesn't always work, ha ha..... Engine mounts should be fun. and the wiring harness. Haltech for the win baby! (My pizza joint is in the climbing mecca of Siurana in Spain. Started measuring up for the oven today, BTW) Your Bette Midler impersonation is a solid 4/10. An 8 for effort though. Cheers!

[@johnbuchowski4545]

A back-in-the-day solution was to have a shot of nitrous to provide oomph to get the engine to spool the turbos faster - nowadays smaller, high efficiency turbos and ecm reduce lag. Great content - keep plugging and the KZbin algo’s will catch up!

[@rennch.]

yea, apparently the Haltech has anti lag technology built in!

[@mattyc2815]

i love how well you fabricate with basic tools. you rock dude!

[@rennch.]

"well" is relative. lol.

[@butterfliesandtape]

yeah totally amazing execution there Mike. The peekaboo thing is SO Porsche, you can always cover it up once you're bored with the look! the thing looks SICK with the EJ and the two blowers in there though, no mistake, I'm almost probably nearly as excited as you are about this.

[@rennch.]

ha ha! Thanks man!

[@bretthenderson8577]

Inspiration for now shoving to Ez30r into a 944 with either twin low psi turbos or maybe a supercharger. Seen several people supercharge these motors

[@lloydjewell1402]

Great effort bloke, watching all the way down in Geelong, Australia

Thanks medi

[@reallywhale]

I really like the way the cutouts look, the diagonals on the corners are a great touch. They look a tad wider than in the illustration, but both look good in my opinion. Great build, keep it up 🤘🤘

[@rennch.]

I'm going to make some decals and dial them in for the real thing.

[@briangaughran9996]

Such a fun build to watch evolve. Love the name of the channel too!

[@rennch.]

Thanks man! It's one my favorite brands I've created.

[@akeelyaalexander368]

I would love to have a pair of those headers. I actually own Legacy with the H6 motor. Funny though, cause porsche is my favorite car brand. Good work!

[@toddatstone_city_outlaw8714]

Awesome, really looks cool. Not a fan of the "no bumper" thing some twin turbo setup guys do, this is really going to give it a nice finished look. My Dad use to say, "it just takes a little bit more to go first class" and your doing that with the peek-a-boo cutouts. Great job!!!

[@rennch.]

Cool, thanks for that.

[@bodizenman]

Awesome. I learn something each video. Keep it coming...

[@michaelbiegel6973]

Michael, this is bad assery right there! You deserve the youtubes love brotha. Been w/ you from the beginning, keep banging it.

[@rennch.]

Thanks Mike!

[@tonyzilinsky3079]

Another thumbs up for your just git in there and figure it out fab skills. The Subie engine looks good in there and the peak a boos will be more "absolutely epic" when you can see orange glowing turbos through them at night. Haven't seen comment on this yet but hopefully you took a break to play with your pooch who brought you a tennis ball to play with during this project at 19:43.

[@rennch.]

I know! I felt bad for him that day.

[@tomlipscomb2211]

Great work as always. As you asked I’d say no peekaboo if they fit behind the panel, but all good if they poke out of the holes.

[@rennch.]

They will be a bit closer I think

[@Fastdh]

Looks great. Not really into doing this stuff myself, I'm more of a bike guy just as noob, but can`t miss an episode. Keep up the good work, can't wait to see it running.

[@rennch.]

From your mouth to gods ears. :-)

[@evk7428]

Loving your work. You can get "mirror image" turbos to give the rear a more symmetrical look. It might also help with their plumbing.

[@bobrose7900]

Looks great, your enthusiasm conquers everything!

[@rennch.]

Thanks Bob!

[@buckeyebrickbros6328]

You could use the metal trim from a Cayman/Boxster to get a Porsche shape for the exhaust tip cutout. Would be a subtle detail with oem roots. The exhaust section you made for the tips a almost identical to 987 tips.

[@rennch.]

Great idea! I'll have a look.

[@JimSlaughterOC]

Go team! The turbos look awesome. Really good. BTW regardless of what the KZbin algorithm thinks, your videos are among my favorites. So there!

[@DrewNZ]

Pretty cool. I own a supercharged EZ30r and with 10-1 compression I thought twin turbo? You’re going to bend some rods lol. You should SC it. Raptor makes a custom SC system for EZ30s. I run 8psi also so I guess if you run the turbos around that you should be all good.

[@aureliendupasquier688]

I love the build. Great creativity, and very inspiring. Cannot wait to see the progress.

[@rennch.]

Thanks Aurelien!

[@lewiseig5432]

Cool stuff, how about a little shadow box or tunnel to hide some of the surrounding bits....yup, those are big turbos for your application....suggest you check into a bit of an x-pipe situation for those tail pipes...a little breather between the pipes. Nice work.

[@rennch.]

I think I’ll reduce the size a teeny bit of the openings and that should do it.

[@howardschaefer1445]

This just gets better all the time! Definitely keep the cutouts.

[@rennch.]

Cool thanks man.

[@marcsimons135]

Good progress! Little Bisimoto flair never hurt anyone. 👍

Look up the bisimoto Porsche 930 (on jay leno channel for example).

[@jasonpeters8580]

Mike, I just discovered your channel & LOVE the content!! I just subscribed w/ bell notifications & I’m hooked watching your early to present videos several times. Really humbling & surreal to see other people across the country get similar dreams of killer cool projects. I have been plotting & planning a “budget” build for years of a heavily modded twin turbo air-cooled motor mated to Porsche 6-speed transaxle build w/ the only American rear engine air-cooled production car.😎 Like you, my idea of cool was heavily influenced by the 934/935 w/ a twist, “what if GM had gone racing FIA & IMSA to compete head-to-head w/ Porsche?” How cool would those race cars have been?! Love your execution of the build. Please keep it up! Your work is inspiring new live into my build & really like your breakdown of plan of attack & adjustments needed.

[@rennch.]

This is the nicest comment I think I've ever gotten. Thanks Jason and thanks for being here!

[@paulwalsh6980]

Loving the look of the turbos and being able to see them..... makes sure you know not only does it look different but has something different under the bonnet (or hood!)

[@rennch.]

Yea that’s the plan. :)

[@AndySomogyi]

Not sure if you already bought the Haltech, but I'm using a Speeduino ECU in my car. Total cost was like $200, and it's all open-source. I'm writing some custom modules to control the analog outputs to drive all the factory gauges.

[@rennch.]

Haltech is a sponsor, and they have a plug and play harness for this engine. And E85 compatibility out of the gate. And a host of other cool things. Like the headers, it's just worth the cost to save time.

[@sebastianholst]

I ususlly don't like blasphemy Porsche builds, but this is so cool. Subscribed!

[@randyjangles4102]

I like them, but would make them about 50% smaller. Nice work!

[@rennch.]

Good feedback. Do you mean the turbos or the holes?

[@mateoechabarne5080]

If you're referring to the holes I agree: smaller for a more subtle peek a boo would be killer.

[@randyjangles4102]

@@rennch. Holes! I'd never recommend smaller turbos :)

[@mattman4023]

Love your build and how you’re doing it. I like how you come up with simple solutions to engineering challenges that crop up. Also your cut outs to see the turbos is a great idea, however in my opinion those cutouts look better in your drawing than they do on the panel you modified and I think the reason for that is in the drawing the openings appear to be narrower which I find more ascetically pleasing to the eye. Keep up the cool work. 😃

[@rennch.]

I agree! Going to dial it in.

[@vickyvix4621]

Hi from the UK subscribed and liked the channel like asked, but just a quick tip! If could put a dark film or even point your camera lens on phone if using smartphone, through some sunglasses when welding, so we don't get flashback from the welder, that would be good. Could maybe set your phone or camera to night vision to counter the darker lens. It won't be as good as using a welding mask but may help 👌

[@rennch.]

Noted!

[@rsrguy]

I like the PaB look especially if the snails poke through a bit, all I can think of is how bit bitchn' they'll look at nite when cherry red! The only problem I see is they're so mesmerizing someone is bound to rearend you! :(

[@donwatson2118]

Work with what you've got brother. Maybe in the future you could get mirrored turbos. That would be even better!

[@rennch.]

I agree! I think they get pretty pricey though. Maybe if Garrett jumps on board.

[@belledetector]

Make the portholes much narrower (even narrower than your vision rendering) and not so tall. it should be suttle and not a barn door. You have to consider the angle from which it will be viewed, to get the best effect. - Would plexiglass covers be an idea? Don´t know if it would work, but would probably increase the quality feel... and be a pain to keep clean

[@rennch.]

Yep...just a proof of concept for now. Stay tuned...

I think the holes are too big and might look nicer with mesh but one you can see through not one with a tight pattern.

[@yjmsrv]

Michael is this going to be a street car? With that turbo set up I'm wondering where on earth you could put mufflers... those turbo exit pipes look so good coming straight out to the center like that- but can't imagine that being street legal. Also- shouldn't one turbo be a mirror image of the other turbo so the header path is similar from side to side? The passenger side looks kind of like you'll have to put some serious bends in there to end up getting to the turbo flange... just questions along the way- LOVE the build and process- and filming! I'll share to Tmblr too-

[@rennch.]

The turbos aren't mirrored, so the path will be a bit different. And yes...it will be loud. Working on that. But have to hear it first. :)

[@TheNugget360]

The Turbos would look way better if you got one with reverse housing so they look symmetrical & they 100% need to be poking out more. From a slight angle you can’t see them... in the rendering they actually poke out. Which is totally doable 😎👍🏻

[@rennch.]

I can't get symmetrical without a LOT more money, but they will definitely be tucked in more. I just couldn't mock them up that way. Stay tuned.
