I also never get tired of Moog playing the intercooler like a harp.... I don't know why, but it kills me every time!!!
+Patrick Morrissey it is because it is awesome :)
Never gets old!
really good editing actually yes :)
missing serial code on the turbo
totally means it wasnt taken off a stolen car
brandon hakki do stock turbos normally have vins?
Stock ones
Yes
brandon hakki so? 400 bucks m8
brandon hakki shhh
brandon hakki I've got a Hyundai Getz, 1.5 Crdi turbo diesel. It puts out 110bhp stock, I've got it aggressively remapped and got a free flow exhaust as well. It puts out around 160bhp now. Maybe a little more, It was 154bhp after the remap, I haven't checked after removing the cat cons and installing the free flow exhaust. I'm thinking of fixing a slightly bigger turbo, something that will help bump up my figures to 200bhp. I have 205 section tyre's already and am planning to upgrade my suspension soon. I don't have an endless supply of cash and hence would like to know, what Turbo charger would fit as a bolt on with no changes to the manifold etc. Do I have to install new injectors and a blow off valve? Can someone give me an estimate for the turbo supporting mods please?
I remember watching this 6-7 years ago and being sad I couldn’t do cool turbo upgrades and FMICs because all I had was a 03 NA Mazda 323F at the time. Now I’m on the other side. Got a sweet 2016 turbo sports car, FMIC, HKS BOV and just did a big turbo upgrade. You guys inspired me to always keep my dream alive and it’s not just a dream anymore. It’s real, it happened and it’s great!!!
I love going back to these older videos even back to the red micra videos, to watch how far you guys have come. The videos have always been amazing, but man the video quality sure has come a long way.
"You ever had something fall out of your engine bay while driving?" "Uh, just an engine"
Hey Mighty Car Mods, just in case you didn't already know, that rag actually says, "Road Safety" on it. XD!
Thanks man I was scrolling through the comments to find out what it said it was gonna drive me crazy.
What if sneezing..was just a human blow off valve?
You don't sneeze after a quick sprint.
But you huff and puff :) lol
***** But not sneeze
farting is the human blow off valve
tavi921 that's only if your rings are worn lol
draws neat area for waste gate piping... completely ignores it and cuts off whole side xD
+Jacob Mortensen
Yes that was quite funny.
draws template to clear Wastegate Actuator Rod - then realised the Rod bends and needs more clearance to function ;)
lol at the tiny bump line you drew for modifying the heat shield and then just ended up cutting a big square out
I think that was just so they got a rough idea of what needed to be cleared, then made the hole around it bigger just in case. Or they just said "Fuckit" and made it bigger.
3:25-3:40 had me in tears, do we now know the origins of cheryl?
just earlier today i came across this channel and i have to say, i get a kick out of the fmic harp EVERY SINGLE TIME! brilliant show fellas, keep it up
"Overdrive" by MOOG Habitat Remix. It's on the album "The Sea Brings Rivalry" on itunes or the MCM shop.
Thanks man and couldn't agree more. The MCM crowd are the best!
I need a t-shirt with the text "You need big balls! Big ball bearings!" And a picture on a turbo :D
I never get tired off watching Marty try not to laugh, while Moog is going off on something..... Hahahaha!
I was waiting for them to talk about a tune.. great job guys. Love that Forester
Under that car is sooooooo clean
on he's place dont have rain
or he cleaned that car completly
Muhammad Rifal Junior Is that English?
Daniel Ford Give the guy a break, he's obviously foreign.
Aspire i didnt know youtube was a specific country c:
John Fisher English* where* things*
Lmao I was dying when he played the intercooler like a harp!!!!!
After i got a Turbo car, i have been watching all episodes om MCM ;-)
"putting old bolts inside hoses to stop the leaking". oh my god thats so brilliant! ive always just crimped the hose in half a clamped it but that looks heaps easier. this is another reason why i love MCM
hey guys, you should try out PB Blaster in future videos. It's supposed to be better than WD40 and I use it all the time. I never had luck with WD40, bolts would continue to strip off. So, my dad introduced me to PB Blaster and I haven't stripped a bolt since. It's a really good product. I'm not trying to advertise, but I'm pretty sure it could help you guys out with all the rusty cars you guys work on.
It's gonna be maAAAAAaaAAAAAaaaaaaAAAAAAAAA
I love how Marty managed to stay with a straight face after ^THAT.
Read this as it played out, haha
This is the best intro you guys have had :) love the spanner action :p
I remember watching this 7 years ago when it came out for funsies.
Now I'm rewatching in prep for a turbo replacement on my 2004 STi
can you guys do a turbo diesel
"Just an engine" xD
You guys are the best diy car modders!
The edit on the install is amazing.. Taking it out is one thing.. now putting everything back well that's the fun part. 7hrs later ...
chop shop turbo upgrade, pesky serial number scraped off
missing serial numbers/code on the turbo. is it stolen?
Probably just sanded off, because mods.
All their stuff is stolen.
Have you never wondered why they never film in the same location twice in a month?
Modded hybrid turbo's or repaired turbo's with internals get sold without or with the company which reconstructed them
No they just filed the numbers off for weight saving. Every gram counts.
I started to watch your videos a few days ago when trying to figure out what turbo i should fit in my car(If one at all)
And i have to say, your videos are really great.
I wish you guys had a real Tv show, with super sponsors, so you could do all kinds of crazy stuff.
2020 and still love the vids whether old or new ...
has anyone ever seen a pic of the famous Cheryl?
Moog/Tuning Fork ride her in the Gramps videos when they head up to Turbo Yoda's place
they call it "dump pipe" ...everyone else call it downpipe..
I call it dump
Dump pipe is what most call an external wastesgates exhaust if not recirculated.
30spooln
nah thats screamer pipe
30spooln what Matt Sawers said. an external wastgates's ehxhaust f not recirculated is actually a screamer pipe
Sitha Puth Proper JDM vocabulary!
Wow that was the most informative turbo vid on TH-cam. Thanx guys!
Love the music in this episode, Moog creates amazing tunes!
You guys should do a DIY on a Rotary.
U guys need to do a video of eBay intakes vs name brand $200-$300 intakes and see if there is any difference in power!!!! Like this comment if want to see them to do one!!!!!
Its already been done...
The only problem with cheap ebay intakes is, under pressure, poor weld snots can break off and enter your engine. (Not Fast n Furious style JR.)
hcracer1985 cold air intakes , usually help with forced induction means like a supercharger , you don't really use them just in their own because you might make like 2hp but they are meant mainly to keep humidity out of your engine because that means less power and are bigger than stock intakes so you can have more air going in
Shout out to anyone watching this in 2019
you guys have come a long ways with your vids! full proof
I haven't seen a VT250 in years. I still have my 88VTR Honda Interceptor 250. Nice ride and video.
Funny how the TD04 is considered a tiny turbo for nothing more than some punch down low on Subarus.
On a Fiat/Abarth engine the TD04 actually a huge upgrade even from the 180hp setup, allowing for 250+hp.
Candisa well relative to the size of the engine and car, yeh it's all relative.
i highly doubt you will get that power to the wheels on those tiny engines.
@@connorcox259 1.6 or 1.8 Will be able to Lower engine sizes not sure , atleast the 1.8 20vt Will but that's VAG :')
that turbo is stolen for sure
did u guys prime the turbo with oil? or was there already oil inside the turbo?
I find myself forgetting how well they know their stuff when it seems most of the time they're joking around and just having fun with whatever project they're on
So, if I upgrade the turbo, do I have to upgrade the intercooler, i.e., should I be worried about pushing the engine's limits?
It is highly recommended that you do supporting mods when increasing boost but not necessary. It really depends but yes you are pushing your engine more by upgrading turbo
angel olivares how would you do that!? I have a dodge neon srt4 with bov, bigger intercooler, slightly bigger injectors, waste gate actuator, throttle body 62mm, downpipe and diablo sport trinity tune. Stock turbo. If I want to get bigger turbo should I change something else!?
Daniel Rodriguez Thats actually a pretty good setup to handle a bigger turbo and is what I meant by supporting mods. I guess I assumed you were going to upgrade turbo with everything else stock seeing as how factory turbo engines have intercoolers like you mentioned in your original comment. You're should watch the mcm vid of turbo supporting mods, more detail there
Daniel Rodriguez
I'm not an expert, as I right this my car is at a tuner (I don't have the tools to remove the engine). However, my dad has taught me about cars since I was a kid, worry about Air Fuel ratio. If your running on the "lean" side it means you should have more fuel for the amount of air there is. Running rich isn't nearly as dangerous. Running lean leads to detonation, which leads to one final detonation. Always make sure you have enough fuel for your setup.
Do the turbo supporting mods first!! Your current turbo will benefit from these and you will get bhp gains.
you forgot to say oil prime the turbo!!
I love the vt250 in the backround as well as the car, haha! Good stuff, funny guys, not bad at all, keep it coming please.
It's a good thing i already know about cars because some things they say on there channel can be misleading, but they are great.
Didn't disconnect the battery. That's dangerous
JDM undies
Love to see more video done on the Forester! Some cosmetic stuff and more modds such as fuel pump, leads , plugs, intercooler and injectors. Would love to see what a few more mods would do. Your 180kw now, be sweet if that could help hit the 190-200
How much power do those turbos even produce? We usually build billet 16gs and 20gs for these cars. The tdo6sl2 7 blade 20g seems to be the best for spool time and hp capability.
whats turbo?
It just makes ur car faster with compressed air
it was a joke, but thanks anyways lol
Hahaha alright then
They're like the Germans but from a different part of the world.
8:24 Years! It has been -YEARS-! I now finally get it!! Thank you!!
Watching this again cos I just got a new 2018 STI, yay subey squad! Also missed the driveway videos! 😍
This guy bought a stolen turbo from ebay! LOL!
You do know that turbos don't have identifying numbers on them. Yes, they have a code that tells you the model, but there is no way to link it to a particular car or owner. They most likely ground the numbers off because they had reconfigured the housing, thus customizing it and making the identification number meaningless.
Spraying WD-40 on the head of a bolt is going to do squat.
+Dennis Leslie Definitely does do something, gets into the threads and loosens things up. Currently doing that with a project car and without it i wouldnt have the progress im at currently.
this is my new favorite channel
Installing a turbo is nothing like how easy you guys make it look. I just put in a vf52 in my sh fxt, and the oil dump took me 2h to connect.
333 people have no turbo
I have a veyron its got 4 turbos
your probably don't even have any car because you are not old enough.
sry for bad englisch I am German.
You guys just made the best Subaru Forester XT commerial aroudn :)
i like how the cut on the heat shield started as a little round cut, and grew to a huge square cut.
What a clusterfuck of an engine bay....I'm glad my Toyota has tons of free space.
DjRjSolarStar What Yota?
JL Cannone ae86 lol
DjRjSolarStar ever worked on an aw11 mr2? Forrester has shit loads in comparison!
11:00 nice mark, but that cut......11:13 fkin ugly
LOL you make me laugh brother. Nice sense of humor. I just love it. Thanks for the clip men.
Or just being a person in general.
McM have really helped me out a few times when I've gotten stuck on my build.
My turbo pushes more boost than yall can hold in your tires and its made by the greatest turbo company. Garrett. With a custom wicked wheel to a 5in straight pipe. You guessed it. I own a 7.3 powerstroke turbo diesel
massive boost, massive torque, sloooowwwww speed
You guys are the greatest. Hitting on all the nitche small question video ehow junk i could imagine. I can't wait to leave the military and just work on my cars.
That subaru looked good jacked up
does moog still have the forester?
you guys make the best videos.
you have inspired me to become a car mechanic!!!!!!!
Thanks Marty for getting Moog a Forrester I'm saving up for one and possibly do a turbo upgrade and exhaust and later a full still swap
HI. Nice videos you have here. I have a Suzuki Swift 1,4L - 2015. Do you know where I can get a turbo? Thank you.
Awesome video man !
welcome to the MCM club. HONORARY MEMBER FOR LIFE =)
I love these guys, they are so funny, wierd but also smart:)!
moog literally explined how to put a turbo rag in the hole, Love it
Hi MCM !!!!
quick question is it possible to put an STI turbo on 2006 Forester 2.0 T, AT Cross Sports ???
You guys crack me up! Love your vids!
Now i have to ask why one of you(forget your name, the absolutely crazy one with the cap) has 2 wedding rings on? One on each hand? Or at least that's what it looks like. Sorry for the lame question but -the curiosity is killin me mon!
Would you guys ever do diesel videos? I have a Ford focus turbo diesel
Can I put a VF-34 on my 2003 WRX sedan? I’m in the middle of putting a JDM EJ205 in my car right now. I can’t see the plate on the turbo to see if it’s a TD-04, but I think it is. Would I have to pay a lot of money for a tune if I switched and upgraded the turbo to the VF? I also have an Accessport V3. Would I have to get the car tuned regardless, because of the swap from a USDM to a JDM?
Really glad you guys made this vid now that my 06 Legacy GT just grenaded a turbo 150 miles from home -_-
going from a stock VF40 to a BNR16g, they recommend changing out the high/low oil line but I wondering if all will work properly if I dont do that? Whatdo you guys think? My stock just went out so im just tryin to get back on the road
Upgrade the size of turbo, doesnit need some adjustment in the engine, like comprrssion, fuel pump, etc? any side effect in the long run?
You guys are awsome!!! Love your show!!
Do you continue to fill the coolant reservoir while you turn the car on so that that you get no air bubbles in the system?
LOL .. I love how Moog marks the heatshield precisely to the size of that water pipe, twenty seconds later Marty brings it back with a big old :D
It was for the waste gate actuator rod
oops . either way.. cut nowhere along the line :P
I love how the divorced pipe partially bypasses the catalytic converter haha awesome
What type of twin turbo would you recommend for a 2014 Hyundai genesis coupe 3.8l v6?
If I were to upgrade to a bigger turbo what are the mains things I should change/upgrade to complement the bigger turbo? I have n47 bmw
Same sauce same content ...killer combo
Do i have to make any changes to my car before getting an upgraded turbo fitted? I have a stock bmw e90 320d on a stage 1 remap, could i buy an upgraded turbo and have it fitted without any issues?
nice intercooler solo Moog
Looking back in time I always wanted wrx so I got one. I’m happy I don’t live over seas, taking that turbo off with having the brake booster/steering fork in the way would’ve been a pain
Dont forget to prime the turbo with oil before operating under load. I'm surprised this wasn't mentioned, unless I just missed it.
will this fit my hyundai excel?
I have an 2008 outback xt manual...I want to upgrade to a STI turbo...will any turbo made for a STI fit??
Turbo kits are an amazing way to enhance the performance of a car. When installed the right way, a turbo kit dramatically reduces the emissions levels of a car apart from adding to the performance. These kits are highly useful for people living in hilly areas.
hey I Ave a 2013 hyundai genesis coupe 2.0 turbo stock what bigger turbo would you recommend to get more juice
