    It’s not that the motors can’t handle that powers. The blocks can hold 500hp easy it’s the pistons and internals that are the weak point on them. The best thing I can recommend is getting another stock block but with forged internals. That’s probably the cheapest yet affordable solution you could have. If you plan on using the turbo parts send them to get inspected and deep cleaned because if your oil pan looks like that there’s a 100% guarantee that stuff made it to your turbo oil lines and possibly your pvc lines.

    • @estebanalicea3591
      @estebanalicea3591 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      This is sound advice, I agree, the affordable yet reliable option is stock block built internals. But I like the idea of having a built block, leaves room for future power gains reliably.

    • @Owensti
      @Owensti หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      @estebanalicea3591 oh without a doubt man. I have a built ej257 block rated for 700hp from outfront. I’m making about 500hp on e85 with my set up if Chris can afford that which I’m sure he can id definitely recommend it just so he has the peace of mind knowing the motor will handle the power.

  • @IAmTheHomeDepot
    @IAmTheHomeDepot หลายเดือนก่อน +11

    That part about you not doing what others are doing and documenting the bullshit that happens because of it is huge. That's what 99% of modern car TH-camrs lack nowadays, the willingness to push the limit so we find out what that limit is, no matter the outcome. Good shit man.

    To help recoup the costs of repairs, you could do a limited "blown boxer gang" shirt where you include a small piece of the blown motor with each shirt. Could be cool.

    Way to keep your head up Chris. I'm a strong believer in doing what makes you happy. If we all did what everyone else told us to, we'd never be happy. The most important thing is that you're taking this as a learning experience. Strange to say, but lots of people are going to benefit from this experience. You learn by doing as my old math teacher used to say.

    It's great what you've accomplished with the 2nd gen platform and sharing it with us on your channel. I'll be getting a GR86 soon myself. Thank you. I do have a question though. I've always thought a rev limiter is just that. Slipping clutch or not, once the RPM reaches the limiter, that's as high as it will go. The only way an engine can exceed an RPM limit is by a mechanical means of forcing it to do so, such as accidentally shifting into a lower gear that exceeds the engines mechanical limits (e.g. money shift). I've only owned and driven manual cars, pickups, and SUVs for roughly 25 years now, so I have a bit of experience.

    Don't feed into the negativity and discard the haters. YOU do you for YOU and not because someone else tells you what to do. We watch you because you're entertaining to watch and see the limits you pursue. Let them sorrow to something they will never achieve.

    That clutch looks suspiciously alright. Are you sure the clutch was 100% slipping? The only reason I ask is because I also have a turbo 23 brz on ecutek tune and I was running into an issue recently where I also thought my clutch was slipping. I would punch it in 3rd or 4th and the revs would suddenly climb and then settle which immediately made me think my clutch was slipping. Someone pointed out the traction control plays funny with the ecutek tune when you are in normal mode (not track mode). When I switched to track mode it runs like normal. Just food for thought. I still think your car over boosted like crazy but it may have been the tune and not a slipping clutch.

    Hey Chris! I recently celebrated my 2-year anniversary with my girlfriend, and she surprised me with an FRS skateboard, #8 of 10. I saw the note and your emails to my girlfriend, and I really appreciate it a lot. I just wanted to let you know in a comment, and I hope this makes your day a little better after your motor blew up. You've got this, and you will come back stronger! Love your videos, and keep it up!

      These clutches start slipping long before that, id say leave it under 420-450 whp and 380-400 tq or less.

    Back in my day, we bought a 13 year old honda for 4k and spent our fast food money building it, using random tools in a cardboard shoebox on the driveway, if the motor blew up we had no choice but to fix it ourselves.

    Call it a day and swap in an LS or coyote. Make the same horsepower NA with light bolt ons. Or get a better 4 banger from honda n turbo that. Honestly boxers are best left stock.
