[@OneHappyDolphin]

Going to start work on my 1982 Cadillac Sedan Deville that was repainted in 2016 to be a Baby Blue Beauty!!!! Stock it was dark blue with the blue interior Buuut the repaint just makes it that much more special!!! It's a lighter shade of blue than Ford's Sky Blue color or whatever they call that color IDK, I had gotten the Car in 2019 drove it for a few months then had a Traumatic Brain Injury that put me into a Coma for a few months and the Hospital for a total of 8 months Between October 3rd 2019 And June 16th 2019, It really sucks because that came just about 3 months after I had gotten a FULL motor rebuild Kit From a company Called Northern Auto Parts, And while the 4.1L V8 isn't even that amazing It SURE IS smooth!!!!!! Soooooo.... HOPEFULLY!!!!!!!! As soon as I am out of a wheelchair (Disabled Not Handicapped) I'll have SOMETHING to look forward to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It may take me a biiiit to rebuilld the motor buuut Let's HOPE NOT!!!!!!!!! And Hey I live in South-West Virginia, Just head on down to Mooresville North Carolina and bam I can pick up a 350-454 Chevy motor For REALLY cheap!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey guys, I'm just looking to move on so if you haven't seen my announcement from 3 weeks ago here it is. Also, if you see someone asking, I'd appreciate it if you could just copy and paste my message. Thanks so much! First off thank you so much for your concern in the comments about Peter. I’ve said this many times before, but I have the best subscribers in the world and appreciate you all looking out for someone that you’ve seen on my channel. I need to let you know that Peter no longer works for Legit Street Cars and he’s no longer associated with Legit Street Cars as a channel, brand, or company. Peter is no longer allowed on my personal property or at my shop.

I am going to keep moving forward and doing what I love most and that is wrenching on cars and sharing the adventure with all of you. We all have the decision in life to let things hold us back or rise above it and I choose the latter. Big thanks to my wife, family, closest friends, and to all of you.

I think that blow-off valve (actually its divert valve) needs boost pressure on that small vacuum line. When it's on car boost from intake manifold helps spring to seal valve.

[@Suuby84]

Yep. Definitely not testing it correctly.

[@southmaplegarage]

On all the vw 1.8ts the diverter definitely goes on the other way , boost pressure will push up the valve and leak everytime.

I hope him and I can make it out to the meet up next month! I have a 15 passenger van myself - an 04 v10 ford e350, just got it as a family camper build, but boosting it seems like a better option than making it camping/off-road worthy 😂.

Nice! Use SEM Trim Black for you instrument bezel. It will closely match the stock bezel.

[@danielmiller5971]

Watching this reminds me of working on my 91 Talon TSI. I loved that car. But a cheap upgrade you can do is put the big 16g turbo from an older evo (3 or 4 I believe) but that will give you more boost and it looks badass! Be careful pushing that stock turbo at 18-20 lbs of boost, you might blow that turbo even being the first gen one.

You used the wrong intercooler kit. Turbo lag is a sob on a 4 cyl. You need a short route kit where the intercooler outlet to the TB is on the back, not the sides.

My suggestion is to paint it one of the rare factory colors. My personal favorite is Oslo Green pearl. Only available in 95 or 96 and I've only ever seen 2 of them in person. 3. ECMlink is a fantastic solution for 95% of the dsms out there. Under 700hp, I wouldn't run anything else. 4. I'd love it if you brought this car to the 30th annual DSM/Evo shootout in Norwalk Ohio in mid September. 3 full days of the quickest and fastest dsms on the planet. Most fun you can have with your pants on if you're into the 4G63.

Just an FYI on your blow off valve normally there would also be boost pressure on that nipple on the top of the valve pushing the valve closed when the throttle body is wide open. Once the valve body closes that would create vacuum on that valve and that combined with boost pressure in the pipe would open the BOV fast

Love this serie 😢. Since I had 2 DSM. Awesome noises. Revive old memories.

[@coltonkruse2313]

Hahaha man I will never get over the intros you guys have been killing it with those and it is awesome to get a run down on the projects/plans.

Love seeing a dsm being brought back to life! I’m building my turbo 07 accord with a k24 and can’t wait to finish it up

I just did an oil change and fluid check on my 17 M240i today. Last week I replaced the window regulator and door latch on my 03 Porsche Boxster S.

Nice clean car, I am not into import but you do a great job in all your builds. Paint it a nice dark blue metalic, I think it would look very good. I am currently working on a 1982 Trans Am T-top 😊

[@BEAMERNOOB]

im pretty sure there is suppose to be pressure on the vacuum port on the bov too. they use a combination of spring pressure and boost pressure to hold shut and then a combination of vacuum on the vacuum port when the throttle body snaps shut and boost pressure in the charge pipe to overcome the spring pressure and blow open.

Im working on a 97 Eagle Talon Tsi AWD just got done doing the same upgrades for the evo 3 16g just need to do a few more supporting mods, convert to speed density, install Ecmlink and get it tuned.

[@RaiderRodney37]

It's great to see and hear your enthusiasm about the DSM! They truly are the most fun and I've owned 6 (2 currently). Can't wait to see more. My GST is a 99 with modest bolt-ons and a Thermal R&D exhaust. Next project will be swapping out the old worn motor mounts with some fresh Torque Solutions solid mounts.

[@petescarport]

Omg reminds me of high school. Had exact car but blue and I set mine to 20lbs almost same exact mods you did just all old school stuff. Had greddy blow off and it always turned heads.

[@edwardclawgessharp1986]

Dude. I love all your videos. I really want to start an amateur car build youtube. Just by watching videos and learning how to build cars. Your videos are so detailed. I learn a lot from your videos. Keep up the great work Alex

[@The_journeyy]

What a great result 🎉

[@MIK33EY]

Max is killing it with the new intros 🤩🥳

[@kellykelly5896]

Hey Alex, I look forward to Saturday mornings so I can kick back and watch your videos! I'm loving your dsm project and your oem plus build plan. I'm currently pulling the engine on my audi s4 b6 to do the timing chains.

[@crxtodd16]

My older brother had a 1g DSM when he and I were both learning to work on cars. This makes me think of that first project car of his. Good memories.

[@PetesTurboGarage]

Just picked up a 95 gsx almost 350k miles. Same owner for 27 years. Paid 2k I got lucky❤. Drives amazing

[@DoctoreE644]

I have aged out of the "working on projects" stage, so watching your videos is doing so vicariously. I have done my share in my younger days, though, on everything from my first $25 car, a 1941 Buick coupe straight eight, OHV, dual carb (factory option), up to working on the water injection system for a highly modified Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 1650 cu. in. P-51 Mustang fighter. I know and appreciate your excitement and occasional frustrations you experience! Keep up the VERY entertaining videos that keeps this old warhorse up to date out there in Chi-land! (I hope that isn't like calling San Francisco "'Frisco"!)

[@jaybee6280]

love watching the progress! Working on my 350z. Did high flow cats, exhaust, now waiting on a tune and then ill get into suspension/aero/etc... :P always something!

[@ronnieboucherthecrystalcraftsm]

i put a turbo blanket on = wow under hood temp way down . i also added bigger fuel injectors = with larger tubing and hoses .

[@justinframpton7806]

Love it. Always loved the 97-99 eclipse turbo. Hard to find in the shape you’ve got it. Have fun! Love reliving my childhood thru your cars!! We’ve got the same exact taste🤙🏼

[@Moparmaniac-mr1tp]

I've just tuned my 2008 jeep srt8 and just replaced my wife's 2006 300 srt 8's radiator. Love your channel!

[@cars-Nstuff]

Amazing video as always Alex! Been watching you ever since the W211's were featured on the channel. Projects ongoing as requested are below: 1) Retune for my W210 E55 after some mid length kleemann headers. 2) Downpipe install + tune for my Opel Insignia OPC 3) Complete bushing replacement and lift kit install for my Jeep XJ Much love from Australia! 🇦🇺

[@qijuans2920]

My current project is a gray pearl metallic 93 TA that my uncle and originally my grand dad owned. A lot of work ahead. Im excited though
