This video was freaking phenomenal exactly the amount of details that I needed to hear with actual referencing the parts locations can't say any more than this was a 10 out of 10 video
The fundamental issues with stock location is turbo inlet size. Max air flow will be vacuum at turbo inlet vs atmosphere. That 2.4" inlet becomes a choke point no matter how big the impeller is. I plan to skip the stock location upgrade and go rotated.
So... first video of yours. Damn good man, holy shit is it refreshing to watch someone with great technical knowledge that can also speak in normal car talk. I have a 98RS with a EJ20K conversion (WRX heads, Coil on plug, 1050's, tgv deletes, rails, etc) running the stock VF34 that came with it. Was looking at going rotated eventually and you really helped clear up most of the questions that I had! +1 sub for me!
Appreciate the support Byron! And glad that it helped, sounds like you've got a fun build glong on. Been wanting to do an RS for years but prices went 📈📈📈
Definitely appreciate all the info, I blew throw out bearing in my ‘17 and I’ve decided to send it and upgrade to a STI trans and a stage 2/3 block and build it myself, keep up the 🔥🔥 bro
I stopped watching Subie vids since I finished my build a year ago (full send IAG900/ETS rotated). So cool to see Smeedia went rotated. The car has come a long way. Sick!
Loving the content mate. Surprised that you didn’t touch on the best thing about a rotated turbo. The extra flow and efficiency of a rotated v band rear housing. Compared to the poorly designed/flowing Subaru rear housing. That comes on the fp and blouch’s . The gains you get in spool in the same size turbo and power/ torque they hold up top is night and day.
Bingo, that's the best point. Except I like keeping it stock locatio, since it has less bends on the dp. AMS manifold removes all restrictions of having a turbo inlet. No need to go rotated.
@@PolishAlexx so you’re saying to go to a 6062 with a 4” inlet and the 4” inlet fits under the AMS? there are no issues with “more bends” on a rotated downpipe. The more bends don’t become a restriction l, as shown by numerous 1000hp setups that are rotated.
@@lincolntighe5836 yes that's correct. Two hard bends so close to the turbine absolutely effects it and getting a well designed one is crucial. Look how WRC Impreza turbos are mounted in order to have no bend at all. Yes 4" inlets fit easily with AMS, I believe Bader built has one on their channel.
@@PolishAlexx doesn’t seem to restrict the 1000hp cars that rotate their turbo. Maybe you should tell ETS they’re making a restrictive downpipe and you know better 😂😂. If it was a real issue people wouldn’t do it. Especially the guys wanting big power and drag times. Have you ever heard a tuner or builder say, “geez this rotated downpipe is restricting this turbo” hahaha never.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I beleive you can get your turbo (which ever model you have either factory or aftermarket) clocked to a useable position for a variety of uses. Also, I love how you're going balls to the wall in one aspect while I'm going balls to the wall while still attempting to look as factory as possible under the hood. We'll see what she does on dyno day. Shooting for 450whp
Whew! just finished a 2 week binge watching all the old videos from start to now, you have made a monumental amount of progress in 2 or so years, awesome job man keep it up 👌🏻 (Side note I miss the turbo BRZ) But I’m now inspired to build a turbo drifting BRZ
Rotated turbos also look amazing! I was recommended by my tuner to go rotated but since I already had every part upgraded for the stock location turbo I decided to go with the largest stock location turbo as possible so I went with a blouch dom 5 which I’ve been pretty happy with so far. I wouldn’t really want anything much bigger because it already doesn’t spool until about 4200 rpm and I’d like my sti to be good at tracks with turns.
Saw you with Baderbuilt in his last vid, both of you have helped me a lot with my build, ran my first 10sec 1/4 yesterday and you helped. It was on a backroad with a draggy lol but I trapped 131.5mph so it’s got a lot left!
😁👍🏼, Thank you! I swear to god, you make relatable content, just when my buddy decided to go rotated on his 2012 STI you drop the killer content😂👏🏼 ! ....That has answered all the questions he thought of lol! Appreciate you T!! Big time!!
I want to go rotated just cause I'm already running speed density and it would simplify the intake routing and make pulling the turbo so much easier. I hate the way the stock turbo inlet is routed.
The ams mani is actually one of the best designs out there. There was a early diy forum on nasioc that the guy built this ams mani on his own car in his garage, lots of torque chamber
After building a k series and doing all of the fabrication myself I forget how much Subaru guys just buy all off the shelf stuff. Custom fabrication makes it so much easier. You can use whatever parts you want. And it’s way cheaper. I’ve pieces kits together for 1500 in parts and a dozen hours of my time that are every bit as good as a $6000 kit
12:07 I have personally captured two live birds with my '05's hood scoop, the second being a blackbird that was pissed off and ready to rumble when I popped the hood.
Been watching your vids for a while now, just realized i wasn't and sub'd. Entertaining and informational for sure, i'm just jelly af of your nice stuff haha
as others have said, this is VERY informational. great one to add to the library of your best of. also the taxi seems like it's gonna sound sweeeeeet when it rips!
Awesome video man, I have an 07 spec b I plan on building power on in the near future and I’m not gonna fool with any turbo or down pipe mods because I want to do this. This was perfect for detailing the correct direction to go. Thanks!
So maybe you answered this in another video. But for those of us interested in taking the rotated plunge and going hog wild on our set up, what becomes of the issues we would now face with waste gates dumping to atmosphere, tgv deletes and all sorts of other EPA infractions that tuners would be inclined to deny us a tuning session for. How do we now go through the tuning process post the "EPA crack down"? Side note, we love your videos out here Philly side of PA! Keep up the fantastic content buddy!
If you've got state inspections there's not much you can do, if not you might be able to find an under the table tuner? Unfortunately not really any work arounds 😭
It was good to see you in Josh Baders video oh yeahhhh. I. Going to miss subiefest this year, I gotta go to a wedding. Next time. It's Dyno time now. Stay safe.
1:48 as often as you say yeet, this was a missed opportunity 😂. This is good info, you should do how much to build your own SB (unless i missed it lol). I need to do it go get any more power, but $5K is a lot for pre-built 😵.
If your gonna do it. Then go for it and rotate it right off the bat then you could change turbos in 20 minutes or less and have different sizes and tunes for what your going for. I run a gt 3067 because I have a rally car. Don’t really need a giant turbo, 3400 rpm spool is pretty good.
I wonder why folks don't rotate it the other direction. Where it uses the hood scoop for a cold air intake to the filter where the original intercooler was at (versus your hot air intake with the standard rotated setup). And the hot side boost pipe from the turbo goes where the original intake pipe to the turbo used to go under the intake. Is there not enough room behind the turbo then for an exhaust?
I've seen some people do it but not often, there is room, ETS turbo kit has the pipe route under the intake manifold. But you'll get shorter piping if you route it this way. Plethora of ways it can be done 🙏
selling stock parts in cali will cover the whole upgrade. stock parts are worth a lot more now that folks in cali have to go back to stock to pass smog every 2 years. i seen a factory used down pipe and cat going for 3k on ebay lol. hope it was a typo from the seller because that is nuts.
Damn that engine bay is BEAutiful! Its nice to see those who keep the bay clean..this set-up is so impressively done. Seein how many times he bust's that old turbo on the ground...hahaha
My wife is not a grandma lol. The 2021 Ascent she got tho is pretty cool. And fun to drive for a family car. I still got my 19 sti and thinking of going rotated. You should make rotated kits for newer models!
Discussion topic? Explaining different sizes of turbos and how they’re measured? How much power certain ones will make with supporting mods? Why different manufactures name them differently? Your opinion on different brands? I’m currently FBO on flex and plan on going ETS big turbo kit on my FA later on once I get a block/trans that can handle it. I’m just not sure which one I want to go for. My goal is 600+ HP. I know you’re running the 6062 in the Taxi, would you recommend maybe the 6266 or 6466? Dude also, thank you for your channel. Between you, bader and JR I don’t need a television subscription. Ha!
We've got you 🔥😉 And I can definitely make that happen. General rule of thumb for subarus is take 15% off of the HP rating of a turbo and that will roughly be what you'll make with it
I am new to the Subaru ecosystem and want to thank you for sharing your knowledge, pitfalls and success. I acquired a JDM Legacy with the EJ20H twin turbo and and now know to leave it the "F" alone and not modify it in any form.
I had to clearnce my block to fit the gtx3076r even with the shim plate to raise it up. I been waiting to have time to finish my rotated..im building my own up pipe and v-band down..buy I love how the taxi came out. And haha air filter to keep crap out air coming into turbo. Got to keep that turbo from catching covid
Do you have like a full build sheet or video somewhere where we can see like what all you really have into this thing. I’d love to learn and I also just buy a 257 block so I’m looking for some assistance into parts decisions. Love the car man. Incredible work and videos.
Big power conversion with a rotated turbo 🐌 is very cool 😎. And great power rewards depending on the turbo 🐌 size you spool. Lots of detail to consider though or one could end up looking the fool. It requires at a minimum a medium to advanced level of skill. For you “Golden Spanner” Tanner you have both the unstoppable will and the required skill. 👍 You also have a great build partner in Fuse Fabrication that made this conversion possible and went above and beyond for you. Fabricating in your garage you owe that man a case of beer 🍺 or maybe two above and beyond what you are paying 💵 him too. Good luck 🤞 with your joint venture on the conversion kit! You have a nice opportunity to both share with your following and to profit 💸. I respectfully suggest appeal will be enhanced if you create detailed installation instructions both video already done ✅ and PDF printable to go with it.
Why go rotated. Because we forced him to? Because it's seggsee to look at? Because big turbo? Engine bay is beautiful and Karma is looking awesome. Can't wait to hear Karma run!
Sometimes it's to match throttle body size. I know for me that was one of thr main reasons. I'm using a 3.5" TB on my EG and we have 3.5" intercooler piping on the cold side and 3" on thr hot side. It will also change velocity die to piping DIA change. But if you have a larger throttle body and use a reducer coupler your creating a bottle neck in the piping
Aye I enjoy watching your videos and all the info that you give. A few days ago I got my WRX STI 2021 w just 6 miles on it, and i was wondering what are the first mods you recommend me to do it ? Cuz it's brand new and I don't want to blow the engine up!!!!
You know, when they say the Chinese turdbo is hockable.. I'm not sure that's what they mean lol Very nice educational video. Where were you when I was in shop class?
@@Smeedia I won’t be ready to do anything until mid-late next month, but I’m wanting a Garret Motion GTX3576R Gen II, and I’ll also be ordering the IAG stage 2.5 closed deck block, along with drop in GSC 272 cams and springs, FMIC, and Essentially the same fuel setup you have on your blob eye!
Where do you sell your used parts cause I'm planning on going closed deck and want to sell my short block but I'm nervous and I also don't know how to figure out fair pricing.
Seems like rotating an fa20dit engine like mine would be a bitch, since stock location is at the very bottom under skid plate. Curious to see one, though! Good vid
Just get a stock oem 70mm-88mm turbo for a semi truck. Them bearings will last you forever more then any other turbo. Just change the wheel in turbo. If you dont want a quick spool;)
Hey quick question. Your rotated turbo kit, are you going to be selling that for a while? Have a GD sti same as yours and I want to replicate exactly what you’ve done, motor and all. Problem is I’m deploying in a couple weeks. So as you know being a vet. I’m bouta stack some cheese. Just wanna know how soon I’d need to buy this if it’s a limited thing. Thanks man!! Love and watch every video
@@Smeedia I think it is a Hybrid. Here is a short clip of me showing you in my engine bay: th-cam.com/video/DyMqCZwJwRg/w-d-xo.html If I had to guess, would it be so that there wouldn't be any messing with the re-scaling or dealing with maxed out MAF sensor? I was reading that the SD could be used for top end usage. I also have a question for you regarding a broken part I have no clue what it's called.
I rotated the turbo on my WRX to blow directly into my face while driving, that way I can add boost with my mouth. About 0.6 psi, or 12 whp on the dyno.
When switching over to Speed Density, there's a couple different IAT sensors that are offered, what's the main difference between them so I can purchase the proper one. i.e, IAT Sensor compared to IAT + AEM 3.5 Bar?
I really enjoy your video, I want your opinions about the subaru flexible tower strut bar which have a pillow ball joint in the middle? Do you think it work better then solid bar when it come to track driving?
Not gonna lie I miss the Tanner Teaches Turbo Tech time. You do a really good job of explaining things. Thanks man!
Been running out of topics to touch on but I've got a couple ideas to turn into videos 🔥
Thanks for all the info, you have a great way of explaining things. Was also a nice surprise seeing you in Bader's video yesterday haha

Why do high powered subaru run a big diameter pipe from intercooler to TB in comparison to from turbo to intercooler.
Sometimes it's to match throttle body size. I know for me that was one of thr main reasons. I'm using a 3.5" TB on my EG and we have 3.5" intercooler piping on the cold side and 3" on thr hot side. It will also change velocity die to piping DIA change. But if you have a larger throttle body and use a reducer coupler your creating a bottle neck in the piping
*Throws turbo and keeps talking
*pauses* "that...chipped the concrete"🤣🤣🤣🤣
😅😅😅😅
And that's when I subscribed LMAO.
7:37 The Dodge Neon & Caliber SRT engines were Speed Density from the factory
I should have known that since we have one here 😅😅😅
Cars looking a realll good. Rotated turbo setup for me is a far off goal, but great video thanks for all the good info and car pr0n.
Anytime and I know the feels. Need to get this thing started up 🔥
Man your making me want to go rotated and I’ve only just changed my turbo 🙈 485bhp on a stock location isn’t that bad though 👌🏻
Not bad at all 🔥🔥🔥
Waiting for that reaction video to the new WRX ✌️
Live stream tonight on it 🔥
You made a video for me, thanks!
I got you 🔥🔥🔥
You throwing that turbo made my heart cry 😢
Not expensive at all, good work! Any 05-06 LGT/Spec.B fitments in the future?
Wagons yes, we're using Matt's as a jig for them. Sedans I'll have to look into a bit more 🔥
Aye I enjoy watching your videos and all the info that you give. A few days ago I got my WRX STI 2021 w just 6 miles on it, and i was wondering what are the first mods you recommend me to do it ? Cuz it's brand new and I don't want to blow the engine up!!!!
Wait at least 1K miles before mldding thE engine but start with an AOS 🔥😁 Congrats on the car 🔥😁
Went to the link for the Up Pipe and it says Unavaliable link. Is the Up Pipe still something thats avaliable? T4 flanged E/wg?
You know, when they say the Chinese turdbo is hockable.. I'm not sure that's what they mean lol
Very nice educational video. Where were you when I was in shop class?
Lol makes for a great paper weight though 😅
This may be a dumb question but are y’all planning on making a rotates turbo kit for any other chassis’s of the STI??
Yes we are, just need thr cars to be able to build them on. Then we can make a jig 🙏
@@Smeedia can we use mine? 👀👀
If you buy a kit 😅🔥 what turbo are you looking at?
@@Smeedia I won’t be ready to do anything until mid-late next month, but I’m wanting a Garret Motion GTX3576R Gen II, and I’ll also be ordering the IAG stage 2.5 closed deck block, along with drop in GSC 272 cams and springs, FMIC, and Essentially the same fuel setup you have on your blob eye!
Easy peasy if we haven't done one before then just lemme know!
I'm liking the hoodie yo... 👌🏽
Eyyy. Thank you 🙌 will be in the next merch drop this Saturday 🔥🙌
Where do you sell your used parts cause I'm planning on going closed deck and want to sell my short block but I'm nervous and I also don't know how to figure out fair pricing.
Normally FB groups 🙏🙏🙏
@@Smeedia thank you
I put a turbo blanket and ceramic coated heat shield with gold foil tape.
All the heat protection!
The link for the piping kit doesn't work where I get a set
They're temporarily on hold until things can get caught back up, lead times were getting out there a bit 🙏
Love the content and the results so far on your daily. When it comes to performance on your daily do you have any oem Subaru parts on?
I'd say there is a few OWM parts left 😅😅😅
Seems like rotating an fa20dit engine like mine would be a bitch, since stock location is at the very bottom under skid plate. Curious to see one, though! Good vid
I've only seen a handful done but they look good 🔥
A local guy to me did one, looked crazy!
Just get a stock oem 70mm-88mm turbo for a semi truck. Them bearings will last you forever more then any other turbo. Just change the wheel in turbo. If you dont want a quick spool;)
So if you were to do this all yourself at home and then time comes for a tune. What do you do ? Tow the car to the shop?
Normally get a base tune via email, upload it to the car then you can drive it to the dyno 🤙
Hey quick question. Your rotated turbo kit, are you going to be selling that for a while? Have a GD sti same as yours and I want to replicate exactly what you’ve done, motor and all. Problem is I’m deploying in a couple weeks. So as you know being a vet. I’m bouta stack some cheese. Just wanna know how soon I’d need to buy this if it’s a limited thing. Thanks man!! Love and watch every video
Go get that chedda, we will have then for a hot while 🔥
What are the Pros/Cons with having a MAF with your Rotated setup (GT3582R is my turbo). I see mines have it.
Eliminating the MAF removes another restriction from the intake track allowing for better flow. Is yours a hybrid SD/MAF set up?
@@Smeedia I think it is a Hybrid. Here is a short clip of me showing you in my engine bay: th-cam.com/video/DyMqCZwJwRg/w-d-xo.html
If I had to guess, would it be so that there wouldn't be any messing with the re-scaling or dealing with maxed out MAF sensor? I was reading that the SD could be used for top end usage.
I also have a question for you regarding a broken part I have no clue what it's called.
The block looks like a distribution block for a vaccumm source. As for the electrical looking thing I've got no idea, I've never seen that before 🤔
Just a FYI Killer B has discontinued the spoolinator turbo kit.
Did not know that. Curious as to why 😖
@@Smeedia beats me but I’d say the EPA BS has something to do with it. It came down around the same time their EWG kits were discontinued.
I rotated the turbo on my WRX to blow directly into my face while driving, that way I can add boost with my mouth. About 0.6 psi, or 12 whp on the dyno.
Tbh that's really the best way to do it, I like to blow vape smoke into mine and it kinda acts like nitrous
@@Smeedia if you blow weed smoke into it, it makes the turbo lag increase by 20 percent.
When switching over to Speed Density, there's a couple different IAT sensors that are offered, what's the main difference between them so I can purchase the proper one. i.e, IAT Sensor compared to IAT + AEM 3.5 Bar?
Just brand, each one has a diffrent calibration so you'll need to know the sensor to calibrate it properly
I really enjoy your video, I want your opinions about the subaru flexible tower strut bar which have a pillow ball joint in the middle? Do you think it work better then solid bar when it come to track driving?
Great for daily driving but any hard spirited driving or track use I'd get a solid bar
Are you and Fuse still doing a rotated kit? I didn't see it on your site😦
First. 🔥🔥🔥 Can't wait to see it in person
Need to get her out of the garage 🔥
Would you recommend an internal wastegate or an external wastegate with rotated turbo setups?
External 🙏
ewg if anyone will even tune you
People are still tuning them 🔥
@@Smeedia my tuner won’t do ewg headers and i was just about to pull the plug on some :(
😭😭😭
Would it work if I run a spacer for my fp black Turbo so the bolts don’t warp?
Best part of the video was you repeatedly throwing that crusty turbo. Second best part was the discussion about the turbo sucking in a sparrow 😂
😉😉😉😉
