I enjoy videos like this. Some people may think it loosk shit, but doing a lot of things yourself helps you learn and gain experience improving as you go. Studying it also helps you develop the knowledge needed for future ideas
Thanks mate, that's exactly the idea for this project. I don't mind it having imperfections as long as it works and I can look at it knowing I've done it myself and learnt something from it.👍
Rad lil build bro , i dig it and love how you are diy it all yourself ... i have a ratrod miata i been working the same .. i just suck at editing lol ... peace and love bro keep it rad stay safe and build on l8z fam
This is great! Always great to see Irish car content were there is some creation rather than just expensive car builds being showing off! Keep up the good work bai! out of interest where did you buy the tubing from? Been trying to work out where the best place to buy steel for turbo / exhaust is. Also where will you buy your intercooler tubing from?
Thanks mate, appreciate it. The tubing for the exhaust was from TubeCo Ireland. It's just regular dairy stainless steel piping. As for the intercooler piping, I haven't got it yet, but most likely will go the same route and get stainless.
I used this turbocharger in the 1.0l engine in the Peugeot 106. Personally, I think it is too small. It causes very high backpressure and therefore great problems with knocking combustion and high EGT. KP35 is a good turbo up to 0.8l. You can get a maximum of 100hp from it. In my second car, Fiat 126p 650cc, it works perfectly. I recommend looking for a turbo from 2.0hdi 90-110hp. There were GT15, K03 or RHF4. Especially the first two will provide a better spool. Currently testing GT15 in 205 1.1 and it works very well. btw. I see an error in the turbo installation. The oil flow through the turbo must be vertical, i.e. supply at the top, drain at the bottom. Knowing this KP35 and the asymmetric bolt spacing of the exhaust housing, this will be difficult to achieve.
It sounds like you're really knowledgeable regarding turbos, thanks for all the advice. I'm aware the one I'm using is fairly small, but I'm not aiming for crazy power. With that being said, it doesn't mean I won't maybe change it out eventually. Regarding the oil feed, a few days after filming the video, I eventually spun the housing to have the feed at 12 and drain at 6 o'clock. Cheers for the comment👍
@@the_mintiest_micra I like to create such low-budget turbo kits from junk and I have already made a few of them. The biggest problem of KP35, as I wrote earlier, is high backpressure. It will take a lot of time to tune the ignition to eliminate the risk of knocking. I remember that turbo in 1.0l engine had 0.5 bar at only 1800rpm.
You cannot put the oxygen sensor before the turbo, the exhaust gas temperature would melt it. It should be mounted after the turbo. You could use the bung you already welded for the oxygen sensor to fit an EGT probe, which is really useful in turbo setups. When tuning your ecu, you could have too high EGT even with a correct air/fuel ratio, because the EGT depends both on the fuel mixture and the advance. If there's not enough advance, the EGT could be too high
That was one of my worries, I kind of did this so I could run the car temporarily without the rest of the exhaust, will probably weld another bung in the downpipe and block this one or do as you said. Cheers for the advice👍
Your o2 sensor will die it will overheat.. in turbo engine you must fit it in downpipe :) lenght from head to o2 must be at least half a meter, that what i know :)
The previous search for 'Nissan Micra scrap value' is frankly a splash of comedy genius.
Well done for showing the inside of the welds. Most TH-camrs don't do that.
😂😂 scrap nissan micra lmao. I saw that right away. good job bro.
nice one look forward to seeing more
I approve this video
Damn, I sincerely congratulate you on the creation of the turbo exhaust manifolds 🤝🤝🤝, Beautiful project
nice work fella
Here since the beginning, following on all platforms. Keep it up!
You're a real one, my g🤣👍
Finally some in-depth diy Micra content. Thankyou my friend 👌
10/10 for creativity and effort and just simply giving it a go 👍
Hey man , big inspiration , keep up the work man , looking forward to seeing it finished as I'm planning to turbo my k11 aswell

omule te asteptam de mult pe yt :) te sustin si abia astept sa vad cand o vei si porni
Multumesc😁👍
Looks really good fella respect 🙏

I was coming to say this so he did not run into any issues ... peace and love bro
love it

The O2 sensor location was only temporary, I've made the full exhaust and installed it in the downpipe, further from the turbo.👍
Bold lmao first time welding let's do a turbo manifold love it
Definitely has some faults but it was good practice, will probably make a better one eventually 🤣
did you reinforce the drive shaft and drive joints or are these original?
Still original driveshafts, haven't considered it as I've seen people getting away with pushing a lot of power and not breaking them🤷♂️
🚘👍👍
