What No One Tells You About D.I.Y. Turbo Kit Fabrication, 1,000HP!!

[@PFIBrent]

Things have gotten serious😂 this has gotten so fun 🤩 This is definitely a fast setup! When it’s in a fox body….

[@chassegallerie2910]

Dunno what you'll end up doing, but if you do with the "fire up top", you should make it discreet, so that when the engine's off, nobody notice. I think it would make a nice effect.

[@martyb5058]

While I don't need the photosensitive and audiosensitive warnings, I give you much respect for adding them.

[@Oxymoron53]

Definitely. It’s meant I can watch these videos. Literally before the warnings I would be watching n my vision would flip upside down and go dizzy n have massive headaches

[@deingolfcabrio]

I love that too, but at the same time jared does 't wear ear-protection while sanding the welds... Thats a questionable choice he shouldn't make!

[@electronicengineer]

Just reinforces what a thoughtful and great human being that guy Jared is. I am so glad that this man is finally getting the recognition he so much deserves. Go Jared!

[@jerrywilcox9890]

It's for people who have epilepsy.flash can cause them problems.

[@Oxymoron53]

@@jerrywilcox9890 well yes that’s epilepsy.. my mum has it real bad. Not under control however I am borderline epileptic, as long as I don’t see rapid flashes I’m ok, with even a second of a flash my vision goes weird n immediate nausea, any more than that I don’t wanna find out what happens. I realise, I went a bit in depth so the context wasn’t there but yeah I don’t know how the nhs get to borderline epileptic but was diagnosed after a skull fracture (of my own doing no less!)

[@larryhall6416]

Beautiful work on the hot side and thank you for sound and the light sensitivity. I really don't have a problem with either but thank you for the one's that do

[@300DBenz]

I like the little shout out to Aging Wheels during the eBay advertising.

[@DBGrimson]

Those waste gates work amazingly I have the same set. This is starting to turn out real cool Jared.

[@MaverickBlue42]

Sand belt? A few scrapes with a half-round file oughta peel those burrs off. One would think those tight corners would just self-destruct a sanding belt. A rotary tool of some sort would work well too like the one you ended up using...

[@xerosolutions9202]

27:12 Best Advice Ever!!! Love Ya Mr. Pink.

[@e.s.bryant765]

Argon is lighter that air. That being said, you want to purge the ID from the bottom and push it out the top. 1/4" plastic tubing works better than that black tube for ID purges. If you do it right, you will have no color on your ID and defiantly no sugar inside your welds. The less heat you can use, the better the welds will look. Heat is the enemy. If you can take a few minutes and learn how to lay your cup on the metal, and walk the cup on your welds instead of free handing it, you will never go back. If you want the best weld on SS, walking the cup is essential. This is not criticizing, this is a pro tech tip.

[@toddrasmussen13]

I'm here for the innuendos. Playing with rear ends and scrubbing pipes.😆

[@nickadimouse1]

Why I like you, you actually explain why. You don't just do it, you let us know what is going on. Ty for the great videos.

[@brianschmidt2747]

Thank you my friend hands on rocks I learn so much watching you. Please shot it out of two round pipes out of the hood that would rock

[@lordrynogaming1553]

go crazy with hood exhausts, the car's already nuts as it is, make it even more nuts!

[@turbhoeheflin1168]

Thank you for educating people on slip fits va stupid bellows that blow out and make a mess.

[@Calvin-Nelson]

Cool project. Helpful hints. The fill rod you're using looks a little large. Also, it looks like mild steel rod. Also, a gas lens (ideally a fupa, or furrick cup) would greatly help the color of the weld if you care about that. I try to do as much of that type of welding with it attached to the car because it almost always warps. Also welding with the v-band flat on the table uses gravity to your advantage. It naturally let's the weld sink into the V band. Makes stacking dimes a breeze. Love seeing folks fabricating their own stuff.

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

Picked up a gas lense for the end, the Vulcan one so it didn’t have the huge cup but man it changed the weld a ton. The rod is a hybrid rod, I tried to go ahead and run a scenario most viewers would end up with, doing it the wrong way, the more correct way possible

[@Calvin-Nelson]

@@TheQuestionableGarage Hey. That's cool. I've got a lot of time welding under my belt. Definitely not an expert. Just thought I'd share. Happy to see a positive influence in the car community.

[@damnitbobby4354]

Seeing Jared's smile every leap he gains is priceless!! Great job!! For theatrics/ videos, throw it out the hood!! hope to see the end "soon"!!

[@hrod4897]

So there is that big foot I kept hearing about on PFI, BTW sweet setup. Love the symmetrical exhaust system.

[@KLZ180]

I think definitely from above. So you can see it while racing. Plus looks awesome. Love the build man! Keep it up. Best guy to watch with these crazy builds!

[@Sniper269]

Can't wait to see the water pump and belt installed right behind the hot turbo.

[@jdmcbaccord]

I thought the same thing. You can tell it's his first time. The exhaust manifold is not impressive or thought through imo.

[@aserta]

24:47 my take, since you're already cutting the hood for the airbox, might as well cut it for exhaust and save yourself the headache of twisting stuff about. Point the two smaller diameter pipes the same way too. Motorcycle collectors might be of help, since the size of those exhausts is ... within the range of the valve's own. You could get one of those, make the smaller diameter pipe meet up and shoot in the normal sized one via that, since it's a short run, it shouldn't have any issues, but you'll only have to cut one hole for it.

[@bkad6238]

The patience you have to stop your work progress to explain everything is appreciated. I know when I'm into a project I hate interruption or distraction

[@markchip1]

If you're so keen to keep the weight down low, fire the waste gates UP so they "push" the car cown when venting. "Every little helps!". Plus it makes any flames that much easier to see!!

[@utahrides2903]

That engine! That turbo! A reasonable exhaust… why Jared why? Send that bad boy out the wheel well!!!🔥🔥🔥

[@LiveFreeOrDieDH]

I agree. The build is already ridiculous. Why not crank it up to 11? 🤣😂🤣😂

[@scottpeacock1345]

I watch both channels and I'm so impressed with both builds. Brent has a crew and you have you. I know this is going to be an awesome race..

[@tripprogers4814]

Jared, you’re really laying the PIPE!! Sincerely, 7th Grade

[@dave3657]

I love the idea that you walk through the thought process of putting everything together. A lot of other builders just show the completed build, or just the fabrication. I would add a custom radiator with more rows. Did that on a 55 Ford with a big block before.

[@brucechapman1946]

Shaping up nicely Jared, waste gates down avoids having rain covers, try zirconia linishing belts (the green ones) last double the time of alox ones, loving the time lapse music.

[@bbay1977]

I would love to come by and just sit in this car and feel the power of it when it is completed or meet you somewhere here in GA. Keep up the great work and Content.

[@confestpete]

Flames out the top, so you put a great show at night.

[@wjpreslar]

As to the waste gate exhaust location, I must quote the greatest philosopher from the 1990's. FIRE! FIRE! Heh Heh Heh!! - Beavis

[@mikeybhoutex]

I'm super duper late. But in case it matters. The turbo exhaust goes directly as possible out the right side fender. Unless the idea is to somehow hide it, just punch a hole and get direct exit happening. The only concern should be paint discoloration/bubbling, and that's where metal tape or something would look kinda awesome. :) Edit: OOH, I got it.. let the paint bubble, then sand it back,, paint with BBQ paint, and stick a titanium plate shaped in a cool shape that'll cover that patch and it'll turn nifty colors as it gets hot. Yeah. Do that. :D The left and right wastegates need to exit the fenders as well. I *might* be inclined to make the left waste go to the right as a third pipe in the grouping of pipes on that right fender hole, because prettier/cooler lookin', but then it's much easier to punch it out the left side, so either way. Wrap the pipes because heat is bad. Not just under the cool side of the turbo. Ceracote and wrap too, I'd say, and maybe even also the copper shield. No heat is good heat in that bay/intake. I'm curious where the alternator is gonna land. Water pump should be electric. Radiator should be fun to see. Use an A/C condenser for the transmission cooler if you need one(Kevin from KSR said it's a good idea...) More capacity, more surface area, more cooling, longer/safer 2 steps... supposedly maybe IDK, I'm an armchair race car builder, don't listen to me or Kevin. :) Intake concern... IF this is a 'straight in, no intercooler' setup, then I'd make a hole in the hood for the intake and a little scoop that meets up with the hood hole, sealed with a bit of rubber gasket that absolutely mates to the hood hole. And I'd also ensure with a little flanging the rubber meets up with the hole and won't suck in/blow out so the only air coming in is fresh and from up front. I'd also make it so a removable scoop was able to be fitted so if you decided to drag and drive it, you'd have a filter in the scoop for that, then remove it for Serious Business Times. You'd run a tune for that setup, of course, different from the SBT tune. If it's an intercooler setup, well, that's different, nevermind, you do you and that'll do. For what ANY of that is worth, probably nothing, and I doubt you even see it, but if ya do, well, nifty. :) Can't wait to see it runnin' around! Edit: any who kibitz this, yeah, I already know I'm wrong. But it's still fun to imagine. :)

[@SpyderGarage]

This was super useful! So much so, that I watched it again with my son because we’re about to start this same task on our next build. Thanks! 🙏🏻

[@Jenuin]

25:32 Jared is so polite talk smack to PFI 😂🎉 LoL

[@jdmcbaccord]

It's not gonna age well...AND I CANT WAIT FOR IT lol

[@ryurc3033]

Sick build, it's turning out better than I thought. For anyone welding stainless at home The thing that helps the most with stainless welding is prep. The wire brush you use to clean it should be used on stainless only, it seems like no matter how much you clean it's never clean enough. There are also 3 kinds of tungsten depending on what your welding. Learn as Much as you can and build your dreams

[@ant4hellfire]

Might have issues with the accessory drive. I love that you explain everything!

[@MaxSpeedMike]

Make that hood dump and shoot flames out of the hood. Great for video purposes lol

[@jellofuel]

"We're not stacking dimes here, this looks more like jello" hey now, I resemble that remark xD

[@VolkerHett]

Somehow I'm under the impression this car won't need a horn so close to the exhaust 🤣 @15:33

[@benstrait333]

Send that exhaust to the sky! You're not making a sleeper, lol. Also, talk to Kevin Smith, he'll tell you to just use tin foil and not bother with the fancy plugs for back purging 👍

[@russelljacob7955]

Fire above. But dont do something dull like just a hole with a pipe. Buick port holes? Have some sort of style exhaust tip that fits the look of the hood! Imagine like intake grills on a rear mid engine car.... but exhaust. Style with style!

[@ndafarachaitezvi1139]

Your work ethic is extraordinary.Great content as always

[@jayr5331]

Whatever you decide to build is good enough. You always build cool stuff.

[@armandopatane5343]

Looks just absolutely amazing jared

[@RichardBauer_]

I mean, is there even any question as to which way the flames should shoot? Right out the hood! Make it the dragon! loving the build!

[@theBoomerDoomer]

I think the best hood is probably going to be an imaginary one. Watching the fabrication, however, is immensely satisfying. Jared really knows how to build things that go fast and loud.

[@paulnelson2362]

I'd love to see the waste gates exit from the hood. I think it would send the message quite effectively, that your not here just to play around. You're here to win.

[@ronme68]

YES! With a spilt turbine housing you need two wastegates.

[@aserta]

There's replacement wheels for the air belt sander (well, not yours specifically, but online you find compatible ones) where the front "touching" wheel is shaped like a little rum drum. It profiles the belt, making it excellent for inside diameters.

[@jimamizzi1]

Always enjoy watching you work while I lay on my couch, talking about welding, it would make a good video, different between tig and mig

[@danielharder2052]

This type of tech info is so much more appropriate for Jerrod than the will it run stuff

[@whim6287]

Thanks for the sound and light warnings.

[@kmdstang7749]

I have to give you credit, you are pretty much a one man show doing the build. PFI has a few more people involved in their build! Cannot wait to see the race!

[@donanything6816]

Nice fab work, Jarrod. It looks great and no doubt it's going to work just fine!!! I'm for up, lessen any oil chances reaching the track surface. I hope to see you re-enforce the front plate to help keep it from bending due to the torque from your awesome engine. May I suggest using rectangular tubing, say. . . . . one inch by two inch by 0.125 wall 6061, six feet for about a hundred bucks. Cheap insurance!! I'd hate to see you bend that mount!!!

[@Moparornocar74]

[@ruikazane5123]

You better run the Moontune in or else you lose! Props for doing the build alone!

[@shoggy3903]

I vote to fire the waste gates up, but make the pipe exits subtle. It'll look awesome from the in-car cam when you're racing.

[@ndog1234765]

I understand how quickly those linear inches of weld add up. I've been building a twin turbo Ford 4.9 inline six and I've calculated that I'm around 100' (give or take) of welds on just the exhaust side. It doesn't make it any easier that I decided to make all of my bends out of pie cuts. Forgot to add that this is a pretty clean setup.

[@silmarian]

Thank you for the photosensitivity and audio warnings! On migraine days welding shots on youtube can mess me up bad.

[@starkyslp16]

I can't wait to see this run the quarter!

[@rossdunkley9791]

Just put a nice smooth flowing pipe from the dump valve out of the mud guard roll the valves facing up and shortest pipe possible with small flex bracket near the opening or radical you could run all three out low finish the main as a trumpet with the other two blended in just before the outlet. More work but would look and sound good. Just my thought as you please enjoy the channel. About time they all come to your shed for a give away build. Could be Billy carts doesn’t matter , it would be fun.

[@liammitchell3030]

shoot it through the top!! More fire is always better

[@Michael-pg2vb]

Can't wait to see it done! Keep up the good work!

[@notold37]

I'd be inclined to face the wastegates down, fire underneath the car, great looking pipes Jared 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘Cheers from Melbourne Australia

[@elijahscott5293]

Keep it coming looks great

[@kneedeepinit]

I strongly prefer the finished look of not having the exhaust coming up out of the hood

[@Mike-qp8bv]

I'm with you on this topic. I can't stand seeing the exhaust come through the hood. Makes me think of a demolition derby car. Or a tractor puller. It's gotta come out the side. The lower the better. And it doesn't need to be 12 inches out past the fender with a 90 degrees upwards turn. Why do that ? It looks ridiculous.

[@christianbuczko1481]

Its just got to go fast, he doesnt need to polish the turd also

[@pieflies]

If it’s a full time drag car I think it’s fine but if it’s a “street” car I think it’s terrible.

[@TravisFabel]

yeah anytime the exhaust goes through the hood or fender, I just see it as lazy. Yes it's more work to do it correctly.

[@RedLP5000S]

The ratio of pure content between Jared and Tavarish is roughly 15 to 1.

[@robbymilligan9639]

I would go threw the fender for the Exhaust

[@six50motors]

Great video. Jus a lil tip tho your using mild steel filler rod on stainless That's the bronze color for stainless you need the silver rod your welds will look way better

[@mobilechaosyt]

What if the car was the charging bull and you had what looked like a bull head on the hood with the waste gates plumbed to the nostrils? Plus the exhaust can come out the mouth.

[@matthewladd3427]

Fire out of the hood is always the answer haha

[@rollerdragon]

main exhaust out the side turned downward and back at either front corner, or lower door hinge area..... quieter, trust me.. waste-gate dumps out the hood.. w/ TRUCK-FLAPS!!

[@frederickhillegas2115]

Love your videos.... can't wait for the next one.

[@gregedmand9939]

When running dual exhaust into a single turbo, how critical is matching tube lengths? Does a few centimeters difference, here or there, matter that much?

[@TheQuestionableGarage]

Transient spool response would be a bit odd, which would matter more in a road course/rally setup. On the strip it becomes less critical in that you pretty much are full throttle and song the entire time

[@rvburbank1]

The build's really coming along. Looks like the water pump will be touching the turbo

[@johnkelly6888]

I think you and the Spanish guy from B is for Build should start a join KZbin channel and blow all the automotive channels out of the water. Good luck, thank me later.

[@scottrobinson288]

Definitely fire out the hood real showmanship

[@captaingadgearoo6992]

love it, if the turbo was a little higher would that solve the heat issue with the intake to said turbo? can't see if it would allow a front cold air feed, just asking a genuine question 🙂👍

[@dvldrvr420]

I love the fire above "dragon" idea, but I'd personally shoot em down and try sn keep the lowkey build going.

[@Jenuin]

25:00 Shoot it straight out of the hood 🔥 😅

[@SchofieldBrothersRacing]

Just came across your channel. Wow, I am doing the EXACT same build. Well, except mine is a 4.8....and not a Lexus, but a 62 Falcon...and not in a shop with a lift, but a 2 car attached garage...and I am MIG welding all my hotside joints, and I am using a VS Racing 7875, and I only have 29 subscribers, BUT other than that exactly the same. I spent a solid 2 or 3 days with the turbo hanging on the cherry picker around trying to find the right spot to place the turbo. I ended up with a kind of goofy looking deal with the turbo on the passenger side frame rail, but think I have everything in place to get a radiator in there. There is not much space in front of the engine in a Falcon.

[@corywright3401]

Do an angled radiator w fans...will really open it up for that big heater you got up there...

[@mikekozi-lester3887]

Hi Jared nice video 📹 and workmanship

[@jondahl9826]

I wouldn't point the waste gates at the ground. If the engine was to get hurt and start blowing oil out of the exhaust on a run you may end up in a wall or 2.

[@daleanderson7629]

Call your brother giraffe get an opinion from experience. The guys that have done a lot of drag and drive seem to be sending there exhausts down not up now, even Leroy without a radiator has longer low exit pipes. Flames shooting out the bonnet make for good thumbnails though. 🔥🔥🔥👀👀👀
