Junkyard Minivan V6 + 67mm TURBO Dyno Pulls! ( J35 Turbo EK Civic)

After blowing out last J32 and not having the time or money to build an engine, Mena found a J35 hanging from one engine mount at the junk yard. So he grabbed it, paid $170, we threw it in the car and gave it some boost!

Nice car idiots. If I had a little money and a place to build a car, it would be a J-series Honda. Keep up the good work.

[@zivaldez4075]

Love the deep V6 monster sound. Sounds like the 350z from Tokyo drift and the 95 NSX . 😮😮😮😮❤

[@justinhobart8747]

Sounded pretty strong, for what it is. Spooling up too full power quick. Definitely need a bigger better wastegate, that thing didn't sound like it was dumping at all! That would make me a bit nervous too. Definitely sounds like there's a bit more power there. I'm glad you took the safe route, till you get it all to 100%, and don't have to rush it. Hopefully it survive the weekend. Good luck! 😉🖒

[@GARAGEIdiotS]

You’ll love the footage from the track, it did amazing

[@geoff3610]

Have thought about using one of these in a silvia as a drift build. Had one in both of my accords, you can beat the hell outta em.

Nice Swap! 4 hands are better than 2! Looks like it has one glass eye! “Left eye”

[@joshuaslater6465]

Dude I love it as soon as that turbo spools the whole car just lights off man. I bet its a riot to drive more people need to use these V6 engines the torque is instantaneous. Very good engine I like them there hard to find in the UK though

[@GARAGEIdiotS]

Thanks man! And they don’t sell v6 accords/ minivans in the UK?

[@joshuaslater6465]

@@GARAGEIdiotS they do but its very hard to find them mainly in the uk there a 1.6 upto 2L 4 cylinder engines and even there very expensive at least in the northeast were I live they may be slightly cheaper down south but then its getting it to you it makes it very pricey. But v6 engines in the uk there pretty difficult to find if you do there terribly over priced or they have catastrophic engine failure issues.

Nice!!

[@SchleighSimeon]

To bad it isnt as easy on a tl

[@cezarcamberos6586]

@@SchleighSimeon why?

[@SchleighSimeon]

Depends which model tl. Rarely ever see any 99 to 03 tls turbo. Seems like the market is getting better with support for turbo or supercharger applications. Also cause the tls didnt come with manual transmissions til 04.

i want to j swap my s13. ive researched GM transmission adapters and some other bits but am still new to the J series. for a turbo application would you suggest the j35 or j32?

Thanks for making this video. I have a Saturn vue with the j35 that I plan on doing some forced induction to. Can you give a parts list so I can start pricing this out? I live in Littleton as well, so I would really love to see this civic do some track time...

I love the Vue, it’s a great sleeper. None of the bug or hawk eye subies in my area expect a 2004 with 230k miles on it to beat them.

[@Brother2Jis_27s4]

Did you end with a torque reading? Seems like it’s really putting some power down for being in the 400s. I’m gonna assume your peak torque number would be close to peak power on that setup

[@GARAGEIdiotS]

We don’t have torque numbers but we’re also guessing torque is between 390-410

Will that ecu work on j35a8

[@darbym2303]

Did I hear right? It requires j35 cam position covers on j32 heads in order to run "hall effect" sensors. Is that right?

[@GARAGEIdiotS]

There are hall and mag sensors, if I remember correctly we had to have the ecu set for hall unless you want to switch the sensors but AEM will set it for either I think
