Rear Mounted TWIN TURBO C6 Corvette - Stacey David's Ol' Smoke FULL BUILD on Gearz

[@andrewg.2165]

I miss growing up watching Stacy fix stuff up on the weekends shows!!

[@CaddyJim]

*Wish it had the original airing date of this in the description*

[@oliverjd26]

That was an awesome giveaway back in 2008!!! 😁👍🚘 with that cool Corvette 'Atomic Orange Metallic' paint job!!!

[@timnovak3656]

Please keep posting these older shows; I enjoy watching them! You might put the original airdate - or just the year - in the title to reduce the confusion of some viewers.

[@theayatollahofrockandrollah]

This was just what I needed. The color of the Vette reminds me of the Ford color Stacey used as a base for the Copperhead color. I bet if you would put the same flake in this paint just like the Copperhead paint it would come alive in the same sensational way...

[@LukeEdward]

Let’s be honest, Stacy’s videos stand the test of time. Change a few descriptors that date this video and you have something that could come out in 2025, 2015, 2008 and still be entertaining & relevant.

[@mynamedoesntmatter9013]

Never knew about this kit. The hidden intake tubing is DIABOLICAL. Makes it even more wilder knowing how cheap C6’s are nowadays

[@Slipperypotato365]

Who is here in 2008?

[@giggiddy]

Watching this back in 08 I took it for granted that those days would never end. Boy was I wrong. 😢😢😢😢

[@paulfretz6777]

Watched the episode when it aired.

[@ar2043]

Man it really grinds my gears watching him smoke up those new tires on the back!! Good thing I've had like 15 yrs to get over it!!! 😂😂😂

[@yalantyr25]

The fact that he's got the Rat Roaster in the beginning stages AND he mentioned Tony Stewart shows how old this episode is 😅, hell I remember being 13nyears old seeing these episodes after school

[@mcf3778]

damn i just missed the giveaway..... good luck to the winner

[@danmyers9372]

🤣

[@philipwilliams6270]

You know I haven’t seen heavy metal in sometime wood love to see a update

[@Mavrik-60]

The only problem with the turbos in the back is spool up time is slower the further from the engine it is. Keepemcoming

[@Scrotum_69420]

True, that was the notion 10+ years ago. But that same build with today's turbo technology, the lag really isn't a thing anymore.

[@danmyers9372]

And you lose a few lbs of boost in the long tubes. And just imagine trying to keep all those solid to flex tubing connection points from leaking. The long cold side tube(s) goes tend to act like a free heat exchanger though.

[@Mavrik-60]

@danmyers9372 Cleetus has a NASCAR truck. He put twin turbos in the back. Works real good only longer spool up time. That why they rev the engine up when drag racing to bring the turbo pressure up a little and it's spinning at launch. Quicker response.

[@TrokaRC]

22:35. Everyone needs to go back riding bikes for obvious reasons, lol.

[@DustySteel]

So cool!!😎👍

[@danmyers9372]

FYI, to date this video note that the magazine Stacey plopped into the C6 roof was the February 2008 edition of Motor Trend.

[@BrockGrimes]

Need to do a new version of this build.

[@Jaybei420]

I love that Orange.

[@andrewg.2165]

LFG!!

[@nknasi]

i assume they had to tune this thing so it could properly use all that boost but they didn't really talk about that part

[@dville8103]

Is STS still in business?

[@danmyers9372]

No. They were bought out by Holley who does still sell some of their kits.

[@dville8103]

@@danmyers9372 - Thanks for the info!

[@williamsisk2897]

I would take this vet over any new Corvette.

[@mcf3778]

any new? what about barely used.... a 19' Zr1 3zr ztk is only like 9,000,000 times better

[@PhilPrado]

The oil pumps return oil to engine, they dont supply oil to the turbos.

[@jamesdelong6401]

😎🤘💪🇺🇸💪🍻. HELL YEA!

[@thinkgolden]

C5 logo on the rims for a C6…lol. And that smoke graphics is hideous

[@ar2043]

Agree! Get rid of that air-brushed "smoked" artwork!! Hideous indeed!!!

[@surprisek3918]

Wasn't that on OLD Motor Trend issue???

[@johnnyrock852]

I wonder where the car is now?

[@jasonsapp792]

Rear mounted turbos really don't get the ise they should...space , heat, tidiness ...just makes sense

[@danmyers9372]

Well hindsight being as good as it is: Big time turbo lag, loss of boost pressure, extra weight from the extra tubing. Multiple tubing connection points that can loosen. Having to run separate oil pumps and long lines to send and return engine oil to the back of the car (leaks!). Returning excess oil to the valve covers screwing up the OE engineered engine lubrication system (too much oil up top in the engine). Air intake under the car where it can pick up moisture, dirt, pebbles, misc trash. Yeah it makes so much sense the company died and was bought out by Holley.

[@mohammedal-maskary8202]

no tune or dyno numbers .. but over all cool project

[@jeffsimpson7840]

I hate when they post a super old episode like its new. This is like 15-17 years old

[@javajack9197]

Agreed. Lost me at "Brand new C6".

[@Revenge777-mb8ji]

Then don’t watch it pretty simple

[@Scrotum_69420]

You do realize that there are kids who might be seeing this for the first time? The world doesn't revolve around you....

[@jeffsimpson7840]

@@Scrotum_69420 your right, mybad

[@giggiddy]

Its still excellent entertainment. No matter how old it is. Once everything is electric, this will be entertainment gold in terms of gear head material. Because this stuff isn't coming back and shows like this will never return.

[@lee161a]

I'll watch, but a corvette wouldnt be on my list. Order of preference, (3) LP gallardo manual, (2) ferrari 458 manual conversion, (1) De Tomaso Pantera with a Shelby voodoo v8 in it.

[@Crazy8ts]

Didnt seem very fast

[@gennaro13]

Was fast for 15 years ago.

[@bryanlohmiller9242]

this episode is like 5 years old don't understand why there airing it like a new episode

[@justinmention7622]

Try 15 years old if not older.

[@cecilnewman666]

Monetary gain

[@jeffsimpson7840]

More 15 years

[@nyernga]

Maybe I'm too much of a Corvette purist having owned 6 in my lifetime but putting those hideous smoke painting on a brand new vette ruins the whole project for me. If I won it I'd wrap it to cover them up.

[@jameswick8358]

Damn how old is this 😂

[@danmyers9372]

15+ years.

[@gennaro13]

Graphics are always awful

[@baitse7676]

How the hell is that a brand new Corvette? Gene Simmons has no idea what he's talking about

[@doughester3086]

Brother this was filmed in the past 😂 they’re just not putting it on KZbin

[@Scrotum_69420]

You do realize that this specific episode is more than 15 years old, right?

[@giggiddy]

SD knows his shiit and doesn't wear a yamaka. Please dont insult him like that.

[@jeremymcclain891]

This sucks!! You guys just posted this 15 hours ago. And the give away has expired? I have not even finished watching the build. Stacey should not have his name attached to this. Not cool guys not cool!

[@BlueDually4x4]

The give away was in 2008. This is just the full build of the car from the TV shows back then.

[@khelliesilive6777]

😹😹😹

[@mynameisray]

Honestly I would ebay this pile of garbage american scrap iron and buy a real car.

[@turtle2448thomas]

Good thing you didn't win it then

[@Scrotum_69420]

No,........ No you wouldn't.....

[@giggiddy]

Let me guess. You prefer driving around a Honda Civic with a loud obnoxious pipe on the back with the stupidest douchebag look on your face you can muster up. Am I close??...

[@danmyers9372]

And buy what a Honda with a fart can muffler? Even that would be better than Tesla toaster oven on wheels.

[@TrokaRC]

@mynameisray Sounds like you will need the Dmc DeLorean and go 88mph fly back in time to 2008 for this contest lol.
