The day finally came to fabricate our compounds on the project truck! We used a 467.7/83 with a 485/96 on the 2007 Ram. All was going well until it blew the gasket!
I ran this same setup on my 06 , I had to run a 1.1 housing on the 67 and a wastegate to keep drive pressure down , made over 1230+ with those turbos though
I love how it looks and info is all helpful and Meyer is super knowledgeable for his young age or he is older than I think I love videos and I'm learning alot
Awesome video! Love all the insight on what goes into fabbing up the kit. Definitely works out nice to have access to the parts and pieces you need. Also really great to see how well you and M'er work together. The look under the hood on that first cha-ta-ta was hilarious! The street drive was really cool to see how smooth it really is and how easily it spools.
my 06 cummins 62/68-14 t4 over s475 t6. I ran my hot charge pipe the same way. kept blowing the lower intercooler boot. finally had v-band flanges tigged onto the intercooler and charge pipe end. o-ring flange of course. made a charge pipe mount off of the top core support bolts to give the hot pipe support because it has to stay stationary with the intercooler. I have not blown a boot since. I also love only having the one big 3inch flex boot by the valve cover. just less failure points the better.
Love how the kit looks, side by side with the charge pipe over the top looks awesome. Should start selling them with your welds for like half of what everyone else wants 😂😂
Dude...your welding looks fine. Don’t worry about your skilllevel welding at this point, the important thing is you have the balls to tackle this job! Looks good 👍
I'm putting together my compound setup right now with an S475 1.15 and as S594 1.45 open, I also have a massive air to water going between the atmospheric and the high pressure compressors to gain some free power back.
What kind of inter-stage air temps are you guys typically expecting to see? What is safe temp feading an SXE of a G series HP? Deciding on wether to mess with inter-stage cooling on my twins (s362/G25-550)
Good call on the VHT under the wrap, it realy helps with the only complaints on wrapping RUST . 100% agreed wet is the only right way to wrap your pipe...
What's going on Josh and Mer`? That compound kit looks killer. You guys need to produce that. I'm not much of a fabricator, but I'd love to run that style of setup. Just a thought. You guys are killing it 💪🏻🇺🇸
Haha those dang freeze plugs. When I did my compounds I tried the whole hit the corner and have it turn.... Yeah not in a 15 year old truck. It went into the pan and fished it out with a magnet. Looks sick! This thing is gonna rip!
Do you guys run coolant bypasses on your trucks? I haven’t seen much about that and I was just cerious. Seems like some guy swear by them, and some say you don’t need them. I have an 06 with compounds and I’ve never had a heating issue
Ive always had such bad luck with mig welding cracking eventually on anything automotive. Thats why I personally always tig weld. Im probably doing something wrong. I used the pie cut method every time ive built any kit.
Easiest way to strike an arc with Scratch Start TIG is touch the tungsten to the material and twist and lift the tungsten off the material to get the arc going just keep it nice and tight when doing so and do it quickly so you dont melt the tungsten into the material. Its not that hard its not much different that starting with Stick welder just takes a little practice.
Can you do side by side s300’s? I was thinking of s366-91/372-1.0. I have arp 425 studs. Just curious about that turbo setup for daily street. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
You make this sound so hard that I almost want to build the compounds on my 7.3 agin. Honestly tho what air filter would you recommend? I’m shooting for around 700-800whp and I’m running a s488 as my atmosphere.
@@horsetorquesdiesel Do I have to call in and order them? I see them listed on Power Driven’s site but when I open the link for what size filter nothing shows up? I’ve been know to be a different level of stupid tho. A+ on your compounds they look sweet. If you to check mine out my insta is heui7.3.
I want to fab a kit just like this with a 467/87/ 1.0 on the manifold with a gate plumbed into the interstage hot pipe with a 488/96/1.32 on a 6.7l engine. I'd like to be able to tow with a setup this large. Have you towed with yours yet?
What psi have ya found stock head gaskets on 07 5.9 with stock bolts to hold ?? I'm running a 67 mm turbine upgrade and smarty tuning is 40 psi borrowed time ??
@@Sargebro387 Correct. But boost/more air forces air into your cylinder causing more dense air and more potential for power. All turbos have a max efficiency range. But to keep things simple saying boost above a certain psi just helps out someone. Studs are a good idea no matter what
Not a fan of "stacking component" installations/making extra work to access replaceable parts; No clearance for access to alternator/belt/tensioner/etc.
Commenting 3 years later. My bad. Good video.

I’m surprised that’s all it made but every truck is different
@@horsetorquesdiesel we stopped it there because it was on stock bottom end
@@ericcothrum9595 smart move!

@@horsetorquesdiesel the truck is over 20k lbs, I'm not worried about 50 more lol
Good job looks like you guys are having a blast!
Love the videos. Just had James tune my truck last Friday.
He does good work!

Last one...🐌
Man you did an amazing job ! This setup looks awesome 👌🏻👍🏻
Appreciate it!
Killing it bro love the content
Great job guys. Looks Killa.
Full disclosure I'm watching to see how hard you push this so I have an idea of how hard I can push my s468/s480 setup. Keep it going!
Great video guys, the welds look good to me don't be so hard on yourself
I like how they are using the giveaway truck for a work bench😄
Not like myer or I like it 😂
@@horsetorquesdiesel It is far superior to my half ton gas truck, that's for sure.
Join the turbo to a stack. Stack exhaust.
Hell yeah brother💪🏼

I dig the piping routing
Sounds great. Need to do this to my 2018 but want to talk to you first before I start ordering turbos.

@@westtexastll1978 hell yeah! That's one way to get it done
Head gasket prophecy....
BA!!!! waitin 4 the next 1

Tack weld a bolt or something to that plug and yank it out with that. 👍🏻
Josh I've watch this a few times bro I think I'm going to change my 5th gen 467 into a similar set up my self. Doesn't look to bad
The freeze plug had be rolling😂😂 no fucks given
Savage 🤘🏻🇺🇸🚂
Let's goo!!
Well done.. have you used standard exhaust pipe or sch10? What is the pipe diameter and thickness between HP and LP?
Wish I could work that fast😃😁
OK just a question. Instead of compounds, why not a blower. I know it ads a slight parasitic drag but the pressures you can run are wow.

Also I torqued my 625s to 180ft lbs with the stock gasket.

No idea Josh had his own channel. Just subscribed!
Thank you!
Sweet.
It looks with this setup it would clear the stock shock tower.
No it unfortunately wouldn’t I even double checked
Learn the word keyhole and walk the cup, by the time you learn and understand those terms you then understand how to practice tig welding

Our air filters. This compound set up was far from hard it was cake

Josh. What oil cooler is that. It’s not oem. Also where ya now? How can I get ahold of ya?
Great video love the channel! I got some good working coming up in my channel myself! What trans is in that truck?

You can tow just fine with that setup on a 6.7!
How thick of pipe did you use for the hot pipe?
12 gauge
Dopest
Any reason for not going 4 inch on the hot pipe?
Didn’t have any
So could you do head studs on a 12 valve by pulling a bolt and putting a stud
Yeah guys do it all the time, works great
2 years in to a "1at a time" studs on a +400k mi 12v alls well .
So is the issue that compounds cause high back pressure
No. Cylinder pressure blows HG. more power equals more cylinder pressure.
👍
So if the truck is hot and the upper hose is hard you’ve got a blown HG?
That hose was rock hard
Where did you get the flange for hot pipe? Any part number
Keating machine has them all on the website
@@horsetorquesdiesel ok thanks
How do you think an s475 would do as the atmosphere charger with the 467.7?
Fine but to me too small
@@horsetorquesdiesel to small in general when paired with that manifild charger?
@@molbydick24 correct!
No need to get all fancy put it on thick grinde it off slick
Hell ya
hey buddy how you get engine bay clean?
Pressure washer and soap
What psi have ya found stock head gaskets on 07 5.9 with stock bolts to hold ?? I'm running a 67 mm turbine upgrade and smarty tuning is 40 psi borrowed time ??
About 50psi is it. Studs are worth the money
I recently did head studs one at a time was told compounds need studs and valve springs when up near 60 psi or close
Boost doesn't blow head gaskets. Cylinder pressure does.
@@Sargebro387 Correct. But boost/more air forces air into your cylinder causing more dense air and more potential for power. All turbos have a max efficiency range. But to keep things simple saying boost above a certain psi just helps out someone. Studs are a good idea no matter what
@@Sargebro387 no joke .... how do you measure cylinder pressure?
If you want to get good at welding get a cheap harbor freight stick welder practice with that with 7018 it will you a better tig and mig welder 👩🏭

Different pipe routing/leaving room to replace alternator, etc perhaps??
Takes less than 10 minutes to remove the entire compound set
