650HP from a BASIC K24! The Vital Data needed to stop lifting heads!

With a fresh MLS Head Gasket on the RWD K24 Turbo we're ready to hit the key and roll the Knight Family Motorsport KE70 back on the Hub Dyno!
While fine tuning the new setup Kye keeps a close eye on some vital data including coolant pressure and Exhaust manifold pressure to keep the engine happy and performing at its maximum capability.
With the addition of a Go Fast Bits EX44 and a 4 port boost control solenoid Kye can run the K24 with a 5 PSI spring to keep the power low but also still able to run 30psi for a max effort power run.
These different boost levels will help Kye with power management when racing on an
un-prepped racing surface.

Who’s a fan of the K24?

[@NicholasBryson-x3d]

is a k24 in a basic honda odyssey (2004) the same as this?

[@xrsrule]

Shit yea one of the best 4 cylinders period if not the best

[@liamjohnson8497]

​@@NicholasBryson-x3dWikipedia will answer that question

Respect to Dave for wearing hearing protection. Industrial deafness is real and incredibly common. The amount of youtubers not protecting their ears is scary.

[@Xavier_Reynolds97]

27 and already feel signs of it after even just over 12 years working

[@matty_isthemotto]

Huh? I can't hear you?

[@scottallpress3818]

As a young buck we always made fun of the older blokes using protection . Now I’m sorry I wasn’t using it myself

[@nielsdebakker3283]

All those american youtubers running open pipes...

[@gavinmcfadden1386]

He almost had it fitted correctly too! Yes going to be a lot, huge amount of deaf people shortly. Especially from KZbin. Just wear hearing protection people, and eye protection, hearing loss happens quickly and by the time you pick it up it is way too late.

[@jonwilliam1441]

Kye is so humble and always smiling. His knowledge is awesome and really show he knows his stuff. Good to see tuners who aren't afraid to share what they know. Love this stuff, another top vid woody!

[@feral4mr2]

Agreed. I hope he can tune my twincharged aw11 when I've built my new engine.

[@elliottg5987]

Woody the way you shoot & edit welding sequences is top notch.

[@theskidfactory]

Thanks mate! This was actually filmed on an iPhone!

[@ThisFinalHandle]

That belt sander is the dope.

[@shannond7669]

Hey woody we need more dyno sessions with kye please. Humble dude, keeps explanation pretty straight forward but still technical enough for us interested in the more detailed stuff when it comes to tuning

[@andersjjensen]

Kye is getting good in front of a camera, and he's good at explaining the relationship between the components.

[@michaelreynolds1904]

Thanks for bringing back the squeaky hammer!

[@chrisla54]

Been missing it!

[@markproper9791]

Always love to see the technical talks with Kye, keep the video's coming Woody, you're doing an awesome job!

[@rotorhead5000]

Great to see I have a brother from another mother in Australia (I'm the guy showing up in high vis with pocket beers around here)

[@MrDWAL]

Love the content with kai. He is so knowledgable and enthusiastic in explaining things.

[@akiwi2562]

Great to see more of the boys and the cool toys. That bracket is worthy of Binky. Loving the editing too.

[@NickMcMillan-yg6pk]

If ur waste gate is bouncing off down the track, doesn't that mean both welds were shit.. lol. Impressive numbers for a shed build kye. Nice car..

[@theskidfactory]

Haha well if it does it’s gonna be my fault!

[@NickMcMillan-yg6pk]

@theskidfactory I'm sure it will be sweet, luving the co tent bro. Cheers.

[@brucemacdonald5532]

The “first go” joke is so much more meaningful now! I actually believed it at the time haha! 😄

[@tyronestock379]

That Engine BASIC K24 looks amazing Good job Modify it and sounds awesome go really fast With 650HP👏👏👏👏

[@sensibl3]

Great episode! You two have a great dynamic, good to see you both working in the new factory.

[@mattycoombes58]

Such a killer little engine Woody and awesome to see you and Kye becoming good mates

[@Xen2288]

Great to see you guys doing work in the new factory 😊

[@ManiacRacing]

Skid factory uploads always make me happy.

[@s_gwalls6106]

Kye is so knowledgeable. Keep it up, guys

[@technology42069]

G series is 8" ie 200mm same as JZX/ Turbo Soarer & Supra (though there are 220mm versions of Supra diffs also).

[@danielthornton3277]

8 inch centre. Love the content lads

[@mickthurston9883]

Superbly informative episode. Fantastic power returns from a nearly stock k24

[@feenyx6394]

Kye's a great guy, loving the inside scoop on tuning

[@cynzhero62]

Can and will AL still visit? Please!. Some of us older folk miss him. If not he will always be in our harts and memory's. Ty woody and kye.🫡🇺🇲

[@seanhamilton4175]

He was in the video before this one

[@ih8ubarney322]

This series makes me wish I had a car that I was working on (despite a complete lack of knowledge and skills) to get Kai to tune!

[@mattgraham1983]

Shot Woodie👍thanks Kye, im looking forward to seeing some passes👍

[@mantravision69]

SQUEAKY HAMMER!!!!!! Thanks Woody! Kye content works! Have him on more often!

[@lennonroberts2386]

Like the safety Gard on the grinder woody 😂

[@jakegackle7398]

When diffs don't come on the third or fourth mallet strike, I grab a sharp chisel and a hand sledge, I named mine Mjolnir, and go straight up from the bottom where the gasket/silicone is. It breaks loose quite easily 9/10. I always keep a nut loosely threaded on the bottom stud so that it doesn't fly out once loose, as well. Just in case that helps.

[@divizionx]

Good job Dave let's all support him 👏

[@dangdang3970]

Thanks ky, nice to know im not the only one that cant keep diffs in my ute 😂 always wondered how street cars didnt blow them when my 1kz n60 eats them, allthogh i do have 33s. Thanks mate, looks like your the new co host now 👌🤠👍

[@BulliKid]

Solid info in this video! Cheers!!

[@scottyb069]

I too love the squeaky hammer, makes me laugh every time :)

So much great tech... and real world experience. Top stuff.

I am always learning about something interesting from you guys together

[@sandrarossiter3807]

Woody u r a champ keep it going cheers

[@poochey1]

Great ep Woody!!!! Great seeing all the professionals in shops with industrial grade gear.

[@benjaminkaper21]

Epic! Mechanic comment for the centre removal: hit it with your purse, Woody!

[@icbudmx]

I mean Kye (Kai?) is just a treasure throve of knowledge and the explanation.... fantastic, Keep up the excellent work Woody big fan of the channel from inception.

[@kanecharles92]

The hammer was worth hanging around for 🤣

[@seanduffield2971]

That's art work. Love it 🎉

[@haveachat7173]

Kye's gloves are wicked... :)

[@craighall6185]

We run a EK9 Civic race car…K24 NA 315HP. 262 at the tire….its fun! The class we run in doesn’t allow turbocharging.

[@BrendanPerring]

Good to see you thriving and loving life Woody ❤

[@markmaher665]

You gonna get another co-host or at least regular buddy? Would be helpful for you I’m sure to share some of the presenting or filming/editing AND I think the buddy interaction is what keeps people coming back year after year (MCM, Top Gear, you and Al, Bad Obsession, etc). Great work on your own so far just don’t want you to burn out!!

[@martyjones1413]

stepping up content, go for it! woody 👍

[@a.l.8873]

No “what’s for dinner” - gee man, the Skidders has gone to the dawgs 😂

[@Turbochargedtwelve]

That ending needs to be shown from time to time. Don’t need to see the struggle all the time, but for the young folks that don’t know. You gotta keep it honest.

[@b1ackartemis]

Ke70's are dirt cheap near me, 4 doora for under 2k USD. I can even get K20/4s but there are very few rwd manual transmissions that can handle 300hp to the wheels... like 4k+ usd for an R154

[@markjones2390]

There's your next T-Shirt "Welcome to the squeaky hammer factory"

[@fendel_]

Great episode. Love a K24. I've always wanted to see Al working on a K24.

[@jgoo9912]

what was the verdict on the fast IAT sensor Woody? seems a pretty common upgrade on RB's running aftermarket ECU's

[@theskidfactory]

Yeah we forgot to cover it!! But yes alot more responsive and accurate than the previous sensor.

[@jgoo9912]

Great to hear. Nice to see Syltech's new line of combination temp/pressure sensors utilizing 1/8npt threads and Deutsch DTM connectors - much more user friendly than Bosch's trapezoid connector and M10 thread.

[@biastv1234]

Magnificent

[@darwonboyful]

What a monster

[@johnkropp3793]

Sweet find and purchase. Got my sub for what's coming for the great notch

[@scottallpress3818]

Kai just getting my hair on fire to tune my thing , only ever road tuned it myself but this getting me all fizzy , my 44mm creeps the same as that too . Goes 5psi to 7psi over a pull

[@corbyweeto6061]

Hard to imagine a KE70 with 650hp, would be insane in the wet. Mine had about 30hp and was still fun haha

Thx again for the content, these semi tech videos are awesome to watch ❤❤ let's not forget the return of the hammer, lovin it 😂😂😂😂

[@CruiserBrah]

Hahah, came here to comment on the Hilux diff then Kai hit it straight on the head. In 4WD circles they are the first to get flicked when fitting bigger tyres and other mods. Mind you, most blokes who break stuff are usually doing something stupid with them.

[@tturi2]

the k24 is basically a barra with -2 cylinders 😊

[@ArmchairCarcass]

Really enjoying the information that ky has when it comes to tuning

[@aarondibley2907]

With all the big words and numbers I first thought I was listening to a doctor talk then buy the end I feel like I could start trading stock

[@the510wagon]

I think we've found our Dyno Yoda.

[@AllCarRelated]

Was that Arron Miller? I grew up with him as a friend down the road 😂

[@Andrezz-vv2ko]

Is that knock normal….. nice.

[@ABergh1]

Squeaky hammer for the win!!!!

[@blairread4414]

Kye , figure/ cam plug = Cheaper Dyno sessions ?

Hey woody, can you rip those stickers off Kye's laptop screen? Thanks lmao.

But how will we know how many cores it has?
