  • This weekend we went big. Well. Big-ger. Upgrading the stock worn out turbo on Glen's Isuzu Bighorn with the Mambo turbo upgrade kit. Essentially a bolt in kit with one or two snags, we got there in the end!
    I know this kinda stuff is a bit new to my channel, let me know if you wanna see more of it (or if it isn't your thing...).

    Would thoroughly recommend a decent tune to pull as much power as possible. You could probably gain a good 30-40hp with the upgraded size. I’m sure you’ve already considered it and it does not “need” a tune but it would be way cooler with a good tune

    Hey fellas, nice work. Have been looking at the same turbo for my 4JG2T Jackaroo and had a few questions for you. I take it the issue with the A/C and turbo was the wastegate hitting it? Also, what boost are you running and EGTs are you seeing?

    • @punkoutnz
      @punkoutnz  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Boost is set to about 20psi at the moment, egts up around 800 if you keep your foot in it, plenty of room for more boost though to be fair. I can't remember what the issue was with the air con, whether it was the inlet or actuator, the turbo inlet is larger than the stock turbo. It's my cousins truck so I'll have a look and see for ya and report back.

      Yeah things are good now. He has installed an external wastegate ready to reinstall the aircon for summer (the internal actuator doesn't fit with the outlets of the aircon lines). Other than that the truck is still running absolutely great. We've done a couple of good road trips in it and it just hauls along, love it!

    • @punkoutnz
      @punkoutnz  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yep! If you run an external wastegate you can keep the aircon, it's just the actuator for the internal wastegate that fouls on the aircon outlet pipes. That's actually the next mod we plan to do to this truck.

    • @punkoutnz
      @punkoutnz  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The turbo "kit" only comes with the turbo, oil feed and return line stuff, it will bolt up to the factory downpipe (although we changed this one to a custom design) but everything else needs to be made or modified. The intake was easy as you can see but modifying the inlet for the intercooler to fit was a bit of a hassle.

      Not really no, the intake noise you can hear is from a 3" intake to a pod filter, the factory airbox is designed to make it quiet so if you are still running that, that is why you can't hear the turbo.

    • @punkoutnz
      @punkoutnz  4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      The main issues are the compressor housing fouling on the aircon compressor hose fittings, so basically the aircon has to come out, or at least the hose fittings need to be removed. The intercooler also won't bolt work unless you weld a 45 degree inlet pipe to it. With the kit we got there was also an issue with the oil feed adaptor being wrong. All minor things but they do add time and cost to the project and if you are planning to attempt this in a weekend like we did, can add complications if parts stores are closed.
