The 125cc Turbo Kart Dyno Tune video is HERE! kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYfCgniFgKxmacU

[@itsmikelake]

I honestly can't believe it works so well 🤣. Dyno tune next!

[@ramoshababoitshepo]

Can't wait ❤ You need to start posting daily,I can't get enough of your videos

[@jacobswann7121]

Use the shell of a kids rid on car bro

[@NightOwlYT.]

Goal: 200hp 😈

[@jazellanderos.]

I’m so excited too see how much power it makes. On 8 pounds of boost my guest would be like 16 hp or 17

[@R.A.W.R.NEWS.T.V.1776]

I can't believe y'all got that turbo that actually spool up and whoosh out and you got a two-step on it. You should have went ahead and wailed on the throttle a little bit and hit the two-step and then just went ahead and took off

[@ichihusni5014]

That line goes supposed to go to the camshaft and rocker shaft. With the oil cooler bypass plate, you bypass those oil that supposed to go to the camshaft and rocker assembly to the oil cooler and flow it back to camshaft and rocker shaft assembly (pressured). Its a big no no to flow it back to the filler, could make the rocker runs dry. My sollution is to parrarrel the line right before the turbo and flow it back to the another port of the bypass plate. For the turbo drain, run it to the inlet rocker plug.

[@isaacwatersoutdoors5772]

what should actually be done is a line between ports with a T in the middle feeding off to the turbo then turbo draining to the block as he has done

[@Nobody-y8h]

If they had listened to u it wouldn’t have blown up 😂

[@RexH]

i can't believe it flutters 😂😂😂😂

[@BenHut69]

That turbo sounds way too good, the homemade 2 step is so sick too. Excited to see the new project as well!

[@itsmikelake]

Cheers Ben! The new build is going to be absolutely WILD...😝

17:18 golden

[@swealer]

Thank god that tuning a ECU of a turbo motor is so easy! You press "Page Up" until it explode, rebuild the engine and do it again :D

[@nross19]

This thing is sick I just watched the whole journey. Started from looking up “small turbo 50cc” in my search, that got me to your channel. The drift cart came a long way

[@tommyhock6411]

So sick. This has been my favorite build series on YT!

[@itsmikelake]

Appreciate that Tommy! Cheers!

[@MRONETEN]

My god that dose is incredible and the flutter made my knees go weak but awesome job on the kart looks sick and goes like stink. Can’t wait for the dyno test and tune mate

[@itsmikelake]

Haha you and me both brother! Cheers

[@MRONETEN]

@@itsmikelake your welcome and I know that dyno test and tune is gonna get that kart right where it should be so wheelie bar 2.0 might be on the cards brother!

[@lochiehalfpenny4320]

Looking forward to seeing how this thing drifts, such a sick build. I want to make one for myself

[@quacksau]

Woo! great video. Also congrats on 69000 subs!!!

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks! On our way to 100k 😈👊🏻

[@tobiasthegentleman9131]

Loving the build so far dude! Much love from QLD

[@CamMartonDrift]

Oi calm down there Bailey! 🤣 7:30

[@itsmikelake]

🤣🤣🤣

[@davidbsmith8944]

Put an Iridium Spark Plug!.

[@jakeweaver2700]

What a cool series this is. Can’t wait to see it finished

[@itsmikelake]

Cheers Jake!

[@aaronhopping1349]

Sounds awesome Mike!! Can't wait for the track days 🎉❤

[@Lukeaus420]

Bro that's so dope! Can't believe how good your vids are, you out do yourself every time it's a delight 🔥

[@itsmikelake]

Bro. I appreciate this so much ❤️

[@Lucas_sGarage]

I'm absolutely loving this series, and I'm taking notes on it for my turbo predator 212 go-kart

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks Lucas! Ooft that will be an absolutely WILD build...

[@jamesgravel7755]

That’s the best one I’ve seen so far. Good job and it looks great

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks james! I can’t wait to get it all running properly 👀

[@Marc_Wolfe]

For anybody looking for a very accessible (cheap) EFI option, should look into the P59 ECU (2003-2007 Silverado, Tahoe, Sierra, Yukon, Express, Savanna, H2, Corvette, etc.) There's a nice beta base tune and instructions made by some weird nerd that looks like he hasn't shaved in 10 years.

[@AutoJunkie-AU]

ayyy u got the wheels the right way round ;) great video, cant wait to see more on this kart, its sick

[@VipersCave1]

Mate! Those were some serious flames 🔥🔥 Great video 🤠👍

[@jcr6548]

love it when a project gets waaay outta control uunreeal!

[@SteveTheCanadian]

This thing looks like a masterpiece to hang on the wall as is......loving the build my Dude! ❤

[@dimitrisdelidimitriou9998]

Awesome!! Congrats from a fan from Greece! Keep them coming!

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you bro!

[@blueexnetic]

i would love to see some more cosmetic focused work on this beauty. Congrats!

[@miseng8880]

love the project! cant wait to see how it evolves from here... i hope you add a big big highrevving engine like a 190 daytona or a 201yx!

[@treecanopy]

Im really enjoying the progression of your videos dude, great pace. And awesome work!!! For real. Im an engineer fabricator specialising in stainless steel, ive always loved cars but never had the time or patience to start my own project. Looking at something soon :) Im from christchurch NZ and have been thinking about making the move to Melbourne. Thanks for ya content man!

[@fireballchaly]

That oil drain supposed to go back to sandwich plate.because that other line supplies oil to camshaft and rockers

[@itsmikelake]

I’ll throw a tee in and tee it back into the plate 😁

[@fireballchaly]

@@itsmikelake yes, that will work. Keep up the good work ❤️

[@Dennis-qq1nb]

Cool project bro. I highly recommend u use antize on spark plug. All spark plugs for that matter. Keep up the good wrk

[@JoeysShortsfortoday]

Been waiting for this!!! So dope man, just be careful, I chuck a rod the other day because I Didn’t use fully billet internals. Hopefully you have better luck

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks bro! Sheesh, that's no good. How bad did the rod throw? Should I be worried? Haha

[@JoeysShortsfortoday]

Well it put 2 windows in my 223 cc go cart crankcase, wrecked my crankshaft too.

[@AlecKeaneDUB]

Completely unrelated, but I just now realized that seasons in Australia are opposite than the here in the US. It's crazy to think that June to August are the coldest months there and the hottest ones here. Really interesting to think about. But that aside, I've loved all these videos! Watched every single one!

[@itsmikelake]

This gets me when I’m watching Jimmy and Adam’s videos too! We celebrate Christmas here having BBQ’s in tees and shorts haha

[@merijn1086]

Around a bar of boost! That's awesome! Usually, when a random engine is combined with a random turbo, the match isn't great. Great to see it working well. I have the feeling that it doesn't like the boost in high rpm. Maybe it's just the video or sound that makes it deceiving. Not sure what would cause this.

[@zamirrubio420]

Small engine with short gears I guess

[@JamesNewberry-t9l]

Absolutely can not wait for the dyno vid

[@itsmikelake]

Big bore kit first?! 👀

[@JamesNewberry-t9l]

Send it man 😂👌🏻

[@stakman78]

Awesome Mike. Thanks for your time and effort.

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks for watching bro!

[@EuriJeffVillavicencio]

Get the drain in the cam cover so the cam have more oil

[@Smisky]

You have to bring it to vicdrift round two 😂😂 Would be a crowd pleaser for sure!

[@itsmikelake]

👀 I actually will! Haha

[@Smisky]

@@itsmikelake ooooofft! Cant wait! 😍

[@410connects]

the 2 step is amazing i love it this is gonna be epic.

[@AdamsWorld84]

Amazing work man!! 👍🎉 Been watching you for a while now, you got good presence and easy to watch. This beast has come a LONG way!! turbo dose!!! Haha on a tiny cart. Where can i buy one. You should put these in production 😂 good work.

[@Fab-Life444]

Absolutely love this thing bro. I’ve done a build over on my channel… just starting out. You’ve inspired my next build!

[@Ingo3112]

every one gangster till mike pull up with his turbo flutter go kart .

[@itsmikelake]

🤣 for real though hahahah

[@drewanderson8279]

This is so good!! Let's go man!!

[@calebdias6478]

Maybe shifting gears on the steering wheel would be better, this way you can free up the handbrake.

[@SHOCKcustoms]

Legend amongst many

[@yovytime]

Awesome video! Just be careful with the front wheel (left), it seemed shaky. Stay safe and best of luck :D

[@itsmikelake]

She definitely needs a bolt check and tidy up before a proper run 🤣. Thank you bro! ❤️

[@mickmuzzmkmz1628]

Fully sick mate! 👍💪👌

[@itsmikelake]

Thank you bro 🥰

[@NIGHTRIDEPL]

first

[@itsmikelake]

Miss you ❤️

[@TTV_Got_Him]

I love it I'm building one myself with no turbo, but I really want to see some drifting keep it you I love it .

[@cyberreks]

this thing makes the right noises , btw since this engine is used in our bikes so add a small size china exhaust on it (it does sound really well with it since i tried it )

[@SquirtleTheAxolotl]

The fluttering is so awesome, can’t believe what you stated with and what you have now!😅

[@socialist_elmo]

We need a big bore kit next 😂

[@icanseeyouallfromuphere]

, totally wicked Mike, looking forward to the paint job (and front splitter and aero spoiler???) Dyno? ~ awesome ~

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks bro! You're giving me bad ideas haha

@@itsmikelake 😂 no problem lol

nice build so far

[@najamkhan7508]

Dude I love this idea please make more videos. Love from india❤.

[@timdelongville2854]

2 step on a go kart is wild

[@jayeshnaick4473]

Coolest thing I've seen on KZbin 🤌🏽🔥🔥🔥

[@pureenthusiasts3469]

Hay Man I grew up around these pitbike motors and I think you could get alot better doss out of it, I personally think your not getting your full rev out of it something is governing that acceleration if you listen to a normal pitbike 125cc motor freely rev the rev very high and they have a limiter, your engine is reving but not getting anywhere near the limiter you need to play with the slide on the throttle or the FI you put on but I love it!! Been watching every episode I get so excited when I see you have dropped a new episode much love ❤️ (BTW please do a 190 daytona motor in it next they are 5 speed and electric start)

[@myrbs13]

It's looking great love the sound it makes

[@kingboicheyryder7817]

You can put a bike brake lever on the steering wheel for the gas and put the brake where you have the gas pedal that way you can only have one lever for the shifter

[@RBTuned]

It need a pops and bangs tune😂👌

[@zsinjus]

put air filter in front of the turbo pipe so nothing will fly inside of it.

[@Hmmmmi-b7x]

10:58 🔥🔥🔥

[@That_clapped_volvo]

This build is sick

[@That_clapped_volvo]

Its sad i dont work for you i know everything abt these engines😭

[@itsmikelake]

And I know nothing 🤣

[@That_clapped_volvo]

@@itsmikelake But sick build keep going man👍🤙🏻

[@Kippo6969]

this in snow is gona be sick, but i think it needs a bigger cylinder and/or more durable engine.

[@Getting.outdoors]

the turbo flutter omg

[@MrFinesse3000]

please show us how you tuned the ecu?!!?!!!!!

[@garybaker1418]

That’s gangster as bro mean as 💪🏽🤙🏽

[@La_Mija-JR4U]

Can’t wait 🔥

[@catherineleef1341]

For reference, the chinese 4 stroke motors are replica honda 4 stroke motors you can tune it using a 125cc or most people i know tune a china 125 using a honda 80 4 stroke

[@mcwood_]

do a 250cc chinese engine like this next please🥺⚠️ love your videos been watching them all since the first episode of the 50cc build

[@Thomas-zk3dg]

run the oil through an oil cooler

[@damienforrest4429]

To save you more room around the legs area try a fit flappy padels for gears would flow a lot smothes be tricky to fit

[@SkyfighterZX]

Bro what do you mean "new build", when the R32 is still so early on, you 300 steps ahead of everybody mate xD gg, also would love to see a outside view of you riding the cart, once you have someone to hold the camera, bc that thing looks sick and pov doesn't make it justice to the size of that thing

[@RCS2DIE4]

You need to return the oil back to the head !! It’s going to run die if you don’t. Make a short line between the in and out and T off it for the turbo. 👍🏻

[@itsmikelake]

Thanks for the info! 👊🏻❤️

[@RCS2DIE4]

@@itsmikelake you can also buy replacement oil dip sticks that instead of being a dip stick it’s just a screw in cap that has a barb fitting so you can return the oil from the turbo back there. There is also valve adjuster covers you can get with a barbed fitting too.

[@Dudeface167]

Holy crap... turbo, intercooled, fuel injected.. it's a damn race car shaped like a 4 wheeler

[@itsmikelake]

You nailed it 🤣👌🏻

[@AkeemWilliams-wn9rk]

You should make a video explaining how you setup the ignition cut for 2 step

[@Funixs_YT]

supra flames 🤪😜

[@3GingerCats]

a Muffler? or a little boy racer cannon? maybe one with a pretty coloured turn down? just like someone would cobble up on their wee Suxuki GIXXER250 lol. I know it seems a little backwards, when a Hydraulic handbrake and any hand brake gets pulled towards you. but I think, as you are not strapped in, and could pull yourself out of the seat and have to push against the steering wheel to keep yourself in the seat. it could be better to push on the brake lever just as you would a pedal brake, as pushing would stabilise you in the seat & give you more control. (I could be wrong, but the best person to confirm that would be someone that needs full hand controls to drive)

[@paradiselost9946]

better to have gone for the 140, the oil cooler lines are fitted and emerge from under the cylinder on the case... start in gear... few other advantages, like the clutches generally hold up better... anyway. later! when she blows! tee-piece and needlevalve/restrictor on the turbo... returning the line straight back to that plate, turbo draining to crankcase... the valve covers are convenient? that plate feeds the cams... that need oil under pressure, theyre only supposed to have a cooler bolted on there. cams will fail without oil under pressure... and then the crankcase breather has to be vented, catchcan type thing as the pumping action isnt good on the turbo. if it cant drain freely, it just floods and then the oil starts sneaking past the seals and youre just blowing smoke... given the volume of that intercooler, she should haul... singles need that volume! yes, its spooling but tdo25/td03 or whatever that is is still too effin big! the vz21 will run a bit better... and theres a billet wheel for them ;) um... MAP sensor... those integrated ones are 99.99% of the time 1bar... yes, just drill a hole in the manifold and shave a standard 2-3bar in there... then recalibrate rather than use that integrated one.

[@J.T.L-q1f]

Bro this is so cool

[@itsmikelake]

😁🙏🏻

[@privatcsati]

put a dose pipe on the turbo because the flutter goes mad!

[@lachlansoutdoorworld]

For the dose get a pipe that's a just a touch bigger than the outside of the turbo it will sound better

[@Rocco101]

That thing is so badass

[@oliverscorsim]

So that oil system is all wrong. You can get oil from there its not enough volume or pressure for a journal bearing at all as it makes about 5psi at redline and you need 20 as a minimum. The drain has to go somewhere without restrictions. Having built a few turbo bikes and one that i believe is gonna take some records add an external pump tank and oil system for the turbo. I have made it work but it involves cutting cases and redoing the drive for the pump and the rest of the oil system.. you can get oil pre restrictor at the clutch cover (the head has a restriction) but while better its still a crap option and your gonna find your starving the engine for oil take my advice go electric pump and separate system. Doing it the right way the other way is labor intensive to say the least

[@oliverscorsim]

Well I watched longer and now you have no oil going to the cam....

[@melomelo420]

it ain't surviving long if the guy doesn't read it

[@RamashampaShampi]

Imagine making a cart meet

[@KellyHobaugh]

Port and polish the head more flow it will run so much better because your trying to force air in to it but can barely get it in

[@itsmikelake]

I’ve been researching this! I’m thinking big bore kit too? 👀

[@jarrodt5786]

Awesome 👏

Can you explain me more detailed how do you make the 2-step?

[@FenrirTechniq]

Where does that plate sit one engine? Above the sprak plug? Do you have link for plate

Yo Mike you should put a plastic kids powerwheels body over the drift kart
