What do you guys think about the exhaust and the turbo noises at the end? Also, remember to go to mudwtr.com/gingium to get started for $29. That’s less than $1 cup per day!
If you spray a little wd40 on your exhaust hangers they will slide on and easier to take off. I use to work at a exhaust shop for a long time. Good job 👍
do you still remember the old supercharegd crappy mx5 rally? Those were the times, we saw this dude go from zero to Hero! Best Manufacturer ive seen on youtube, Bro built his own Tube Car!
Whatsup GHPC You guys should use a gyroscope on the offroad bike that you guys are building it would help with stability.... Looking forward for the next vid ❤
For future reference you can use the valved straight pipe as a resonating section when the valve is shut. There's online calculators for calculating resonator pipe length to kill specific frequencies. Build the quiet side and go for a drive, record the sound on the highway, then build the bypass with the valve at the calculated distance to kill highway drone.
I think the technical term for this is a Helmholtz resonator. I’ve got one on my car and it’s straight through from the downpipe back, but there’s very little drone on the highway.
I told my godfather about this and he loved it. He owns a fit currently but he used to track a Z06 and at one point he had a hayabusa. He’s pretty laid back now and recently purchased a Vespa.
I am getting to the age where I sold my sports cars and bikes a few years ago-- and looking for cruisers, and comfy suvs... lol, enjoy your need for speed while you still have it.
@@BurittoSandwich well he is in retirement now so he’s being frugal. He did tell me he wants to get something sportier but for now he’s going to enjoy the Fit.
Gingium I watch a lot (too much) of TH-cam, and I want you to know that I look forward to your videos the most. I have been here since built vs bought and it has been a pleasure to see your development bro. So so cool, and thanks for keeping it real this whole time. Amazing stuff man, talk about building a dream!
Nice to see you use the Metric System! I dont know why but some Americans get offended when you tell them that Imperial is a Stupid Measuring System... Metric Supremacy! :D
I stoped watching you for a while but this build... Idk man, you just have the spark in your eyes and smile on your face doing this build. It's just different and I'm here for it!
One thing I love about Ging ia that he actually uses the things his sponsors give him...like those super comfy shoes, look at how worn and not clean they are.. My boy definitely wears them all the time! Also sick (Honda) Fit brah 🤙!!
The increased friction and heat from using power tools will also gall stainless fasteners. Done this myself a few times. I would recommend antiseize over grease unless you're using serrated/lock washers, split washers, or serrated flange nuts.
True, but using grease or antiseize to avoid galling is fighting the symptoms instead of the cause. If you use zinc plated stainless steel fasteners, you will not run into issues with galling; it almost exclusively appears on untreated stainless steel. Obviously the process of zinc electroplaing causes hydrogen embrittlement on fasteners of 10.9 or higher grade, so it's only really an option on lower strength grades like 8.8. I don't think 10.9 or even 12.9 is at all necessary for an exhaust flange, so this issue can easily be avoided by using zinc plated stainless steel screws of 8.8 grade.
Fun fact: The factory 02 sensor is wideband and reads within .01 of an AEM UEGO (dead accurate unlike the 8th gen SI WB). Also Honda/Acura uses this same P/N for the 1G RDX oxygen sensor which was the first US factory turbo vehicle. I too installed the AEM when I went boost and it is good to verify against the stock sensor to make sure it's reading correct, you can also disable ELD/EGR/ECT2 then wire in the AEM to one of these inputs to datalog the sensor. You can monitor pretty much anything you want through an OBD2 adaptor and display for a much cleaner look (I think you are already running an android HU? use Torque-pro or the Hondata app). Stock map sensor is good to 11psi also. I ran the Mishimoto universal J series/size FMIC and IAT was 7-10 degrees over ambient. Fit the space/bumper perfect and was able to keep the fog lights.👍 One other trick is to use a OBD1 Honda AIT sensor and the weld in aluminum mounts are on ebay/amazon for nothing. Unlike the oem sensor they have an o-ring seat and held in with two bolts so can handle the boost unlike the rubber gasket press in place OEM sensor, also it is calibrated exactly the same so just crimp it into the harness and move on. Oh and R18 throttle body is 5mm larger and bolts on, I would port the upper manifold as there is a nasty step. (I ran unequal fabrication 1 pc aluminum manifold)
Gingium, can I just say that you are looking good? You have clearly lost some weight, and I'm proud of you. What ever you are doing, keep it up. Unless it's crack... don't keep doing crack...
I stopped watching some car youtubers over the years, but gingium isn't one of them. I've been watching you since the forza days, and i haven't missed a single video, and i have loved every single one
Your chuckle at the end from the turbo noise was awesome. Can tell you’re happy with your work. Nothing better than doing work yourself and seeing the results.
As much as I like the turbo flutter sounds, I suggest a blow off valve. That's the sound of boost returning to the turbo impeller flowing in the opposite direction. It's hard on the shaft seals and will wear them out prematurely. Ask me how I know. Lol
Literally not possible for it to spin the impeller the opposite direction, it doesn't even slow it down. "It's hard on the shaft seals and will wear them out prematurely. Ask me how I know." You are the perfect example of the type of person that thinks it damages the turbo, someone with no idea what is happening lol.
@@DriftNick it's opposite pressure on the impeller, it's harmful on the turbo. It's pressurized air working against the natural flow of the turbo. BOVs release this. Without one, it will cause premature turbo failure. So some research if you doubt me. I guess ignorance is bliss.
@@scottc78 It's great you say ignorance is bliss after saying you think it makes the turbo spin backwards LOL As for doing some research, been running no valve for over 10 years, countless people here doing the same thing.
@@DriftNick it's literally slowing the spin the of the turbo with reverse flow. That's the flutter noise you're hearing. Do you think that's coming from no where? Lol. What do you think that noise is coming from? I ran like that for years too. Until the seals eventually have out on the turbo of my '87 Grand National. Modern cars have built in recirculation valves to prevent this, generally just not released to atmosphere.
@@scottc78 High Performance Academy made a video named "Do You Need a Blow Off Valve?" and tested exactly what we are talking about, there is no difference in turbo speed between running a valve or not after you lift off the throttle, they slow down at the same rate. "Until the seals eventually have out on the turbo of my '87 Grand National." Yep nothing else could have caused that... " Modern cars have built in recirculation valves to prevent this" Modern cars have a recirculation valve to reduce emissions and prevent a rich condition, something the aftermarket world does not care about and/or can fix.
I’m almost skipped over your sponsor until you mentioned lions mane.. I used that mushroom two years ago for a nerve issue I had with my face and it helped me greatly! Also love the exhaust!!!

Caleb, 2 helpful tips; 1. The clocking of the pin as it's inserted and how well it's crimped dramatically affects Deutsch connectors - crimp twice, rotate so pins align with retention tabs 2. Look at Tesa fabric tape instead of that nasty black insulation tape - Tesa fabric tape looks and performs like OE factory harness tape
Love this build so much. Awesome fabrication and editing as always. Keep up the good work! I have a GE fit myself. Best car I’ve owned! Everyone comment for the algorithm, he deserves waaaaayyy more views!!
Such an under appreciated exhaust setup for a 4 cylinder turbo that came with a single exit out the back. I had a similar setup on my VW CC. Gives the car two different personalities
This is amazing. I remember when i discovered Gingium making gaming videos (sim racing). I was younger then and as i grew up i dind't find that content interesting anymore. Whend did he become such a good fabricator? i am amazed...i think about all of the exhaust shops and guys doing this for a living and not making as good of a job as him. Hatts off to Gingium for making content rivaling in quality with The skid factory, Benny's custom works, etc.
I saw someone years ago do what was basically open downpipe, but they used a motorcycle muffler instead of just pipe to cut down noise and it still had the sweet turbo whistle
If you want to attempt more turbo whistle without a tractor idle, consider moving the first resonator all the way back behind the exhaust valve. This will make the quiet and loud modes closer in volume, but hopefully, it'll louden the whistle.
With the valve closed, you're kind of getting a bit of a helmholtz resonator as well. The section of tube that is blocked off with create a pressure wave cushion.
lovely content, i've always looking for honda fit tuning for reference all over the media which sadly not as much popular unlike to the other model like the civics. By personal experience all honda FIT or JAZZ GD3, GE8 & GK5 are underated hatchback. In fact they all has great lightweight sturdy chassis, reliable engine, spacy interior, a good daily, and tuner friendly, in conclusion It's a great car you dont know you need it. I hope you keep it up the content 👍👍
So pleasant to see something like this done in a car I love. Had two of them, and in one I ran 17'' wheels and it could make turns like it was glued to the ground. Can't wait to see how you're going ot tune it... EDIT: wow you already did in the same video! cheers!
Beauty of an exhaust system! Only small gripe I have is with the rear exhaust outlet set up and lack of symmetry: the single pipe only exiting on the drivers side and the passenger side with the muffler and tip. Maybe a subtle OEM looking rear diffuser with cutouts for larger 4-5” SS exhaust tips? The diffuser will hide the connecting transverse exhaust pipe that joins the two exhaust pipes. Strictly cosmetic of course, but I feel would beautifully finish off such an elaborate exhaust system!
I recommend a vacuum exhaust valve, they are inexpensive and only require a vacuum solenoid like an egr solenoid, about $5 depending on manufacturer. I have a $35 valve on my truck and works like new even after 30k miles. The only modification I had to do to mine was weld a washer on the end of the axle so the valve plate wouldn't get caught in the housing. Vacuum valves operate significantly faster than the stepper motor variants. Most vacuum systems on cars have a vacuum reservoir with a check ball which is where you should source the vacuum for the valve.
The Focus ST community deletes the factory resonator, and the whistling noises make it out the stock muffler. Overall volume increases slightly, but no drone on the highway. Definitely not as loud as your "valve open" mode, but it's an amazing $50 mod to make it sound great at WOT. Also, those turbo hissing noises are air pressure waves that will kill turbo impeller blades and then nuke the motor with metal shards. That's why blow off valves exist.
Honestly not a big fan of pie cuts, more of a smooth flowing exhaust and intake pipe type of guy but I recognize that it's harder and you need specialty tools and machines for specific pipe bends. Probably my favorite car channels of all time, thanks for the content man keep er goin ❤️
If you want straight pipes without the tractor or drone you can tune tune the tones with j pipes, building those are definitely cheaper than buying mufflers/resonators/valves
By the way there are lift kits for the fit, at least for the second gen for sure. You would take the springs from an insight and put little spacers in the front. I vote for full rally spec 😆that would be the ”perfect daily driver”
While no one could possibly question your TIG welding skills, I think most of this exhaust really should have been done with a Mandrel pipe bending machine...'Well you have just about every other machines available to you! Why not that one?"
I used to watch this guy make custom flat headlights on a miata, now he has a shop, makes his own exhaust (super clean btw) and figuring out shit byhimself 🤯🤯
Had the same problem with my cut out. Butterfly kept catching on the pipe. Now change the electrical connections on it because they disconnect all the time.
9:34 then sand your joints before you weld them. It will look alot better. They have oil in them from being made. Yes stainless has oil in it. An I'm not talking by hand. An let you stuff cool off some. Take it from an 8 years pipe welding. From sanitary to sch 140 heavy wall pipe. You can get a pen to rub on the pipe to show if it's too hot.
No lifting the Fitt, if you're worried about it use some thing gauge plate to make skid guards on the lowest parts, as a frangible layer that can be replaced rather than the resonator or piping.
Have you heard 1320 Kyle's corvette with the crazy exhaust setup? It sounds like a fighter jet when it goes by, worth a watch. I think it was on his personal garage episode. It's wild. EDIT: BTW both settings on your car sounds amazing! Nice job!
Ideal, factory quiet when you want and loud and annoy.., oops I meant "proud", when you want. I agree with at least one other comment. LOTS of people see the car from the rear. The round pipe on one side with the visible muffler on the other will forever make it look DIY. Something should be done. Maybe the same muffler, or back façade of the same muffler, with the straight pipe fabricated through it, to make it "look" symmetric?.

the bolts didn't go crossthreaded. they galled. bare stainless bolts and nuts with no grease or antiseize will gall together every time.
The increased friction and heat from using power tools will also gall stainless fasteners. Done this myself a few times. I would recommend antiseize over grease unless you're using serrated/lock washers, split washers, or serrated flange nuts.

An let you stuff cool off some. Take it from an 8 years pipe welding. From sanitary to sch 140 heavy wall pipe. You can get a pen to rub on the pipe to show if it's too hot.
I haven't had a smile like that working on my car in awhile.
No lifting the Fitt, if you're worried about it use some thing gauge plate to make skid guards on the lowest parts, as a frangible layer that can be replaced rather than the resonator or piping.
You did a really nice job with that exhaust.
Both exhausts sound good! That's sick.
a bit of heat wrap can help wigh any rattling the exhaust might cause when hitting the frame
Honestly, a slightly raised rally style fit meant for paved and dirt track would be sweet.
This really makes me want to search for a small supercharger for my 2.5 altima, just to have a little more oomph
I’m definitely gonna do something close to that if I turbo the prelude I’m looking at getting
I just found this channel and I’m INTRIGUED😭this is sick!!!
Those Garrett turbos are so loud👌🏻
Have you heard 1320 Kyle's corvette with the crazy exhaust setup? It sounds like a fighter jet when it goes by, worth a watch. I think it was on his personal garage episode. It's wild. EDIT: BTW both settings on your car sounds amazing! Nice job!
Little bit of spray lubricant and those hangers slide right on/off 👍
after playing/watching The last of us i dont think ill ever consume cordyceps but otherwise that Mudwater ad looks good
You could always massarge the bottom of the resonater flatter.
Ideal, factory quiet when you want and loud and annoy.., oops I meant "proud", when you want. I agree with at least one other comment. LOTS of people see the car from the rear. The round pipe on one side with the visible muffler on the other will forever make it look DIY. Something should be done. Maybe the same muffler, or back façade of the same muffler, with the straight pipe fabricated through it, to make it "look" symmetric?.
got a fit 6 months ago and been liking it
You should buy another Fit badge and take the T and add it to the end of your current Fit badge. FITT would be a great sleeper touch
