This turbo kit is BURNING THE CAR!! Time for some HEAT MANAGEMENT | [The Bunky BT1] - Ep13.

Merch Store: www.torqhub.com.au/shop
Yep, unfortunately this DIY Turbo kit, and more the point... the 4" dump pipe, is doing some damage, blistered paint is a good early sign that we need to take a step back and do some heat management. So, we're going to downsize. Remaking the dump pipe in 3.5" stainless, and putting some heat shielding in place so this problem can't get any worse...

Sound great guys!

[@shanenorwell8580]

Loving the vids guys. When building anything custom sometimes having to redo it is just par for the coarse.

[@TorqHub]

That's it! You never really know how things will work until they're tested hey. Only a small bump in the road for us really, there's still more problems to pop up as we move along too I'm sure. Cheers Shane!

[@trevorsmith9251]

The journey is definitely the fun part, except the cost 😅 then the project will keep evolving and probably never finish lol, keep up the good work guys

[@TorqHub]

You've hit the nail on the head perfectly there Trevor. Thanks for watching as always mate!

Nothing wrong with the heat shield. Looks good.

[@LRogan520]

Loving the fab work inside the wheel well there, shame it came to this, but hey least it didn't cause to much damage " where it's in ya face noticeable" loving the shield work.

[@TorqHub]

Thanks Lewis!! It's all part of the teething issues I expected, taking on all this custom work is bound to have some hiccups. Haha. Hopefully get some more done on this soon!!

[@geoffarnott2330]

Keep up the good work on the videos! I'm a Perth boy too with a 304 VS stato so this build series is so sick to watch. Nice touch reping Poms Ali G inspired merch

Great video boys. I love watching Kurt’s fab work and I’m also a fan of the Cardboard Aided Design 👍🏻

[@TorqHub]

Thanks for watching and commenting as always Al! Can't go wrong with the Tried and true CAD approach hey! Haha.

[@FoghornLeghorny420-69]

I’m making 710 wheel with 3.5” dump to twin 3” so definitely 3.5” would be the go 4” is huge!

[@TorqHub]

That's awesome power mate. When the built motor is in this one and the new turbo and cooler gets done, would like to make around 750 wheel through th400.

[@BADQ]

Brilliantly done, great work! will be a beast when its up and running cant wait to see it.

[@TorqHub]

1 step forward 2 steps back but this is how it goes. Haha Cheers mate

Love the diff dumper exhaust. They sound so good

[@TorqHub]

Cheers Craig, the exhaust is still a work in progress, will pipe it out to the bumper once some other tasks are taken care of first.

[@jamesp3298]

Great job guys. Looking good. Can’t wait to see this project on the dyno. 👍 Heading towards 10k subscribers boys. Keep it coming. 🤙

[@TorqHub]

We can't wait to get it out on the road for some testing, and dyno day will be a momentous occasion! Subs have been fluctuating a bit but still chippin away little by little towards that 10k milestone 💪🏻 Thanks for watching mate 🍻

[@PunsandPizza]

If the dump pipe is the destination, then the heat shield is just a piss stop along the way.

[@TorqHub]

Haha. That's it hey!

[@darthsnouty]

CAD. Cardboard aided design. My preferred method..

[@TorqHub]

Quick, easy and works well. Can't go wrong hey!

Spray paint the heat shield with high temp balck colour in the wheel arch

This was my thinking already for sure. will be done once it's all buttoned back up and proven to be working well. Thanks mate

I have a GT42 with a 3.5 inch dump and make over 800hp 👍🏻👍🏻

[@TorqHub]

That's awesome mate! How many ci is your engine? Thanks for watching

[@farmer3242]

The guy with 3 and a half inch dump that necks down to 3 inch, does he have a external gate to atmosphere? If he does i think that is why he can get away with 3 inch exhaust because alot of exhaust gasses are pouring out gate pipe.

[@TorqHub]

Yeah he does mate 👍

Hi Just wondering what camera and what wireless mics are you using thank you as the sound and picture quality is awesome thank you.. Do you have a link please?

Can you ever not scream braaaaa down an exhaust when you take it off or just before you put it on 😂

I'm reasonably confident it's law, lol

[@damobarber2401]

[@FuManchu5ltr]

I have another question. I recently wrestled with that CarBuilders stick on heat shielding. Have I got it right you have used the stick on and the plain heat panel together? (Like a samich)? I didn’t think to cut extra and fold over to stop the fibers hanging out. Looks tidy as. (Worst worded question ever.)

[@TorqHub]

Nah we didn't use both in the end Fu Manchu, the heat shielding itself is 2 very thin layers of metal with a fibreglass type insulation sammiched in the middle. The stick on Car Builders will be utilised on the engine bay side at this stage more than likely to cover some of those blisters.

[@FuManchu5ltr]

I might have missed it in previous episodes, what did you use in the wheel wells to coat them? Looks tidy as.

[@TorqHub]

Inner wheel arches were done in Raptor liner. Has come up a treat hey! 👌🏻

[@FuManchu5ltr]

@@TorqHub Doh. I was hoping you wouldn’t say that. It does look the shizz for sure. I’m thinking of doing my Cross8 wheel wells. I’d need to use cans though.

[@TorqHub]

I think I recently saw the skid factory guys using a Rustoleum stone guard in a can if that helps? But if you can borrow a compressor, the 4L raptor liner kits come with the schutz gun to apply it and costs around $320. Comes with enough to do the entire underbody. Food for thought.

[@FuManchu5ltr]

@@TorqHub Got me thinking for sure. I’ve already cleaned down the whole underside of the cross8. Exhaust us to come out and the drive shafts too, so I guess it might be on the cards.
