This guy needs our respect. He mounted the entire assembly on the supra, then realized that he hadn’t said goodbye to his audience properly, removed all that stuff and put them on a table just to thank them for watching.
Always. I just wish Steph had special funding just to come up with more YT content! It’s easily one of my top 3 automotive/fabbing channels, but since Steph is so busy and this isn’t a source of income for his operation it doesn’t pay for him to put out much content. It sure makes the content he DOES put up YT GOLD!
I have a high German degree in mechanical engineering and always learn something from Papadakis' videos. Never heard of just creating an O-ring as needed but that's brilliant!
I love every single one of these videos and eagerly await each new one. Which is funny, because I have utterly zero interest in drifting (no offense to anyone, it's just not my thing, sorry) and as a motorcyclist, only a slight interest in cars. These vids and the calm, cool, explanation of the intricacies involved by this professional, keep me totally absorbed and amazed!
Really slick design on varying the volume of the plenum.......can be changed in a matter of minutes to match track conditions. Truly awesome application.......same with the throttle body spacers. Can hardly wait to see this dynoed and raced.
Looks awesome. The straight logs like that always have a couple cylinders that suffer. If you kick the angle of the throttle opening directs the high speed air into the top of the plenum it helps with distribution. Example Holley hi-ram

I did not think that was going to be that interesting but it was. It goes to show how good you are at making videos, no BS, no tattoos, no attitude. 👍🇭🇲
Wow, that looks immense, I especially like the spacers for potential larger capacity plenum and the fact it can easily be done so you can test on the dyno
Thank you very much for this video. I'm designing and building some plenums right now, and this makes a huge difference. Have never heard of viton cord stock, matching plenum size to the displacement, or many other details.
Jesus that plenum spacer testing trick is God damn genius. I wonder if any gaskets are needed between to ensure a safe power. However that cnc stuff looks incredible and probably holds the power 😯😯
Hey Stephan! I love your videos. Straight to the point with lots of knowledge. I love how you don’t drag your videos like other TH-camr. Please keep it up
You could make a 3D printed jig to get consistent lengths on your o-ring lengths. I have made jigs for CF tubes, it saves a lot of time not having to measure them out if you have to make a lot of them.
@papadakisracing it'd be good if you did a follow up on the 3D printed plenum. Reviewing failure points, would be super beneficial to the long term advancement of 3D printing technology.
I get that the video has a 99.5% positive rating... BUT WHO DOWNVOTES THIS?? This is pure innovation, explanation, and execution from an automotive legend!

Did you know you can edit videos?
@@OTechnology Did you know you can have a sense of humor?
@@TheXeago i genuinely thought you and the others giving a thumbs up were serious lol
@@OTechnology Well that's Poe's law i guess
Hey id love to see more of what goes into designing and making a part like this! Super cool. Thanks for sharing.
I second this
good coffee, solidworks and flow simulation 😉
There was definitely an earlier video where they prototype it and then mill the billet!

Jeez! Your level of perfection, and skill never ceases to amaze me.
This dude is the driving force behind perfection! Keep it up!
It is really satisfying watching something get made by a very knowledgeable perfectionist with a budget that matches the perfectionism.
Love the velocity radius plate for capturing the plenum plate bolts, really great idea!
thats one of those ideas only vast experience would deliver
love this channel so much! tons of knowledge and straight to the point. can you make a video someday on matching up turbo sizes to engine sizes?
Go to Stavtech youtube/facebook page and watch/read up. Engine size is a small part of deciding what turbo to use.
I still can’t believe that we are getting “ALL” this information for “FREE” !!!! Love you bro! Your a Gee!!!
variable plenum size is such a cool feature. You guys are so innovative and its super cool that you are willing to share this kind of stuff!
Love the design , no welding required and all bolted assembly.

Art. The concealed runner bolts are a good example of how much thought these guys put in to these designs. Really really nice engineering.
Goals all around. Shop goals, engineering goals, engine goals, driving skill goals.
2:13 that was a most satisfying noise, when it just fits so well
The attention to detail and being able to watch him explain it all as he is working is just amazing! Great job mate love it!

Incredible knowledge and engineering. I love your videos and the way you explain things for normal people to understand
Papadakis, you are the true definition of Guru. May you live long 💯
No stops or pauses, video continuously pumps out information. Perfect content.
wow love the Engineering behind this Build..
Congrats on the win last event!!!

Loved that bolt securing detail!
dat knowledge.... just amazing
As a mechanical engineer, watching your solutions and your design decisions is always fascinating!
Stephen, you got the coolest job in the world man.
FINALLY!!!
wait a minute...
6 MINUTES!? ahh... that's fine I guess...
They really gotta fix their upload schedule
Finally they made a new video
@@lloyd9435 with papadakis TH-cam is almost last thing he worries about he has to manage a team build and repair the cars
What was that about?

Stefan Papdakis, the gift that keeps on giving. Brilliant work every time!
I don't care if the videos are few and far between, the quality is always excellent!
SP is genius when it comes to this stuff
Thumbs up,professor stephan papadakis..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
The way of tuning its awesome. Sick.
A genius that shares his knowledge. That's rare these days.
Love the volume spacer idea and how modular it is. Very well thought out design!
I did not think that was going to be that interesting but it was. It goes to show how good you are at making videos, no BS, no tattoos, no attitude. 👍🇭🇲
I allready put a like since i know the video is going to be awsome
Haha! Same here man!
Wow, that looks immense, I especially like the spacers for potential larger capacity plenum and the fact it can easily be done so you can test on the dyno
Papadakis definitely puts quality over quantity and I appreciate that because this are damn fine videos don’t care how long they are
I presume I have got OCD, cause this build make me calm and comfortable :) Grate job!
Steph, you're an engineering marvel......
Beautifully machined pieces. Thank you for showing us.
Thank you very much for this video. I'm designing and building some plenums right now, and this makes a huge difference. Have never heard of viton cord stock, matching plenum size to the displacement, or many other details.
Bro. That O-ring trick is most important thing I've seen in years. Great idea!
everything seemed very standard to me, which trick were you talking about? maybe I missed it.

@@idokwatcher2062 oh ok. I've been building cars and watercool PC for a while, so that's old news to me.
When something is done just right... Love it

Such clear and clever engineering. Interesting about the superglued gaskets 👍
HELLO FROM GREECE THE BEST TEAM PAPADAKIS RACING!!!!!!!
need to see more more more... like 5 times daily would be a start Mike !
Damn, kts been a while, Welcome back
I LOVE this type of stuff. Well done
Papadakis Racing :)

Thanks for the tip on the o-ring cord stock / superglue!
I love these technical videos
That’s a whole lotta work! You definitely have a creative mind
Absolutely wonderful as always
Cool assembly! Great design job
Wish i could hit like more than once. Please more of this stuff!! This chanel is the best on TH-cam!!!
you are a legend all you do is very special and you have your own character all wishes for success always
Thank you for taking the time to put these videos together. I'm sure this de-mystifies the building/manufacturing process and inspires many!
First time i hear about plenum spacers, respect!
I really love to see a dyno run w/o spacer and a other one with spacer.
I can watch videos like this 24/7
Hey Stephan! I love your videos. Straight to the point with lots of knowledge. I love how you don’t drag your videos like other TH-camr. Please keep it up
Thank you for the tips and inside information Mr Papadaki !
Man the Supra is looking so good!
Can’t wait to see it back on the track🔥
I love your videos! It’s very informative and goes to the basics so even noobs can understand what’s going on. Thanks :)

wow, i just found this channel and im so glad i did
Your work is art.
A man truly dedicated to his craft.
Damn that's some 1000iq manifold design
great value mr clean out here doin work BABY
As always love the thoughtfulness that goes into every part
Always learn something new. That viton noodle looks interesting but I'm sure making your own o-rings would get old fast.
Thank you Mr Papadakis for sharing the knowledge ,keep it up !
Love the idea of the spacers to experiment with size!
It was sad to see the 3D printed one get cracked, but this billet one looks just gorgeous! 😁
Did it? I was curious why the they swapped that. Where could I find news about it?
@@Stasiek_Zabojca On his Instagram
Absolutely loving every video.
I love your videos! The ingenuity, creativity and forethought is always superb. Thanks!
@papadakisracing it'd be good if you did a follow up on the 3D printed plenum. Reviewing failure points, would be super beneficial to the long term advancement of 3D printing technology.
Man, you give me the inspiration to work harder to make my Supra more badass! Keep it up!
Man I love your videos. The best videos on this kind of content I've seen. Period.
I just learned the o-ring trick and next day I need ed it for my HPA tank high pressure regulator and it worked😝
Freaking love you guys!
Really kicking butt this season!
Thanks for another great video Mr. Papadakis!
Thanks for sharing more behind the scenes Stephan! Would be really interested to hear the results of the different plenum sizes on the dyno too :)
same
Love, love, love, this channel. 🤓 So much great content.
I would like to see it polished. Not necessary but the manifold looks like art, may as well give it that finishing touch IMHO.
congrats on the latest win
Great video guys you should put these custom components on the market i have a m140i and all this stuff should work it would fly out
500k subscribers? Wow, I remember when I joined at 40k. Still deserves more subs!
Another exceptionally badass vid!!
Awesome build process, great video as usual. Can’t wait to see it back in action soon
That is absolutely beautiful
Highly enjoyable, informative video as always. Thanks!
I get that the video has a 99.5% positive rating... BUT WHO DOWNVOTES THIS?? This is pure innovation, explanation, and execution from an automotive legend!
