Hoovie can't believe how bad his old turbo Carrera really is! Orange Crush Pt. 4

What do you think about the turbo modifications for this old Carrera and who likes Pinball? A big thanks to Gerry and his family at the G POP SHOP. They were great!

So, then…lots of bodywork to fix the rust, new carpets and seats, upgraded instrument cluster, new transmission, upgraded turbocharger, new oil and fuel lines, and maybe even a whole new paint job! 😎

…yes indeed. That’s the list. Just a few bits….

Hey thank you very much! Air cooled 911's forever!

[@notj5712]

A hint, if you hook up your chop vac to the outlet of the exhaust housing it makes it for a much cleaner and more pleasant porting session.

[@The911Den]

The porter mentioned he had burned through several vacs. Gave up on trying to maintain them.

When I did exhaust systems for Allison turbines in Aegis Destroyers, they were mostly stainless steel with batting inside and a liner of perforated stainless to line over the batting. The elbows that got extra hot and were not able to take the heat being channeled around an elbow were made of inconel. Heavy metals combined to produce a superior combination of strength and heat resistance properties. Don’t ever breath it or work on it without special filtered masks etc. Den it sounds like the right upgrade from my seat.

[@The911Den]

Now that is very interesting regarding the incorporation of the iconel components. Thank you for the input and support!

[@mainiac4pats]

@@The911Den high quality stuff inconel, the best for heat and strength past regular high heat stainless which gets too brittle once you use high heat. Love your stuff Den, I am living vicariously my Porsche life watching you, thanks man.

[@CCM911]

Great video, Leonard!! I feel like I learned a lot about turbo design. Keep up the good work!

[@The911Den]

Excellent. Thank you so much!!❤

[@garagebeers1]

Can’t wait to see it up and back on the road. Would be cool to see it make the trip up and run the mountain roads of West Virginia for some of the rally’s around here

[@The911Den]

Thanks! The Crush will be hitting some events so we'll see!

[@vwfanatic2390]

Totally digg’n your channel! Love the base riffs, your man cave, the knowledge you impart, and especially the Porsche content. Tyler cameo’s are added fun, but not what’s keeping me tuned in. I am glad you 2 connected, though.

@@The911Den So true about Tyler. I don’t actually know him, but having watched his channel since Apollo911, I feel like I know him, even if it’s just that he seems like a guy one enjoys having a friendship with. He also seems to be one who kickstarts other’s KZbin channels. Also not a bad thing. I hope to see your channel elevate you and your love for Porsche 911’s. A 911 still seems so out of my reach.

[@rustypotatos]

Well…. Yea makes sense might as well just make it wayyyy better

[@MJFiguera]

Hi Tyler, Joe here, a fan from South Africa. Why not just make a restomod out of the 911 since it is stripped already. Upgrade the brakes, suspension, shed about 100 kilos off it and with that motor it should be an absolute hoot to drive.

[@The911Den]

That's a good suggestion and basically the direction we are going. 😃

[@hasanbhayat8925]

Ayy. My fellow South African,

[@patrickradcliffe3837]

Wow thought this ride was swallowed by a blackhole. Nice to see it making progress.

[@The911Den]

Its climbing out of that black hole and will be back better than ever with twice the power that it had from the factory, and of course about half the value as it had when it left. 😂🤥

[@Endy5_Still_Alive]

The port & polish is very impressive. I've never heard of doing that to a turbo. Amazing! One question though...... Wouldn't it increase the distance between the impeller and the housing wall? Or does it not matter?

[@The911Den]

Good question! I was wondering if someone would ask that! Since the hot side was ceramic coated the polishing only removed that ceramic material and smoothed the factory finish. Same on the cold side, just a polish there. There was a decent amount of material removed through that exhaust inlet though!

[@Endy5_Still_Alive]

​@@The911DenAh! Makes sense. I've never seen a turbo port & polished before. It's brilliant! The whole concept is so obvious I'm embarrassed I never thought of it. And that turbo in the video is gonna be so responsive & quick spooling it ain't even funny. 😂
