In this episode of Mike Finnegan's Garage, we are engine-swapping one of my favorite vehicles, my 1994 Yamaha Superjet. For the last 15 years this thing has been mostly stock and pretty damn reliable. Lately, though, it's been giving me lots of trouble so that was the perfect excuse to hook up with the boys at Ericson Machine and Performance to make some serious upgrades to the drivetrain of this water rocket. We swap out the stock 701 Yamaha engine for a fully built stroker deal from Ericson and we trade the stock jet drive for a ported version with upgraded internals! Top all of that off with a Factory B pipe and dual carbs and with some expert tuning this Yamaha Superjet is a water rocket!
Go give the Ericson Machine and Performance channel a follow for more great info on hopping up two-stroke engine and personal watercraft:

Every dollar you spend goes right back into my broken Hemi. lol
Thanks, Friends!

Thanks for having us on the channel!! Enjoy the new powerplant!!

@Hard_Right Год назад

i don't think anyone thinks you can't supercharge or turbo a 2 stroke ... it's been done lots of times ... but making it reliable is the next problem

@EricksonMachinePerformance Год назад

@@Hard_Right alot of people think you can't. Very few have done with a PWC 2 stroke. We are working on 1 now and will be on our channel soon

He could already be out of it but I respect him for bringing light to the problem and a lot of states with these kind of rules and laws they weren't willing to drop his friends charges of the same thing because he doesn't have a massive following like whistling diesel which is wrong on its own they were willing to drop it because they know it's BS to begin with and they don't want his millions of followers to see it and show up at Court like they did the first time 🤣

Jeez, now I'm 71 and want my 1992 super-jet back. That was my go to ski back when we had a few rental business's . This was a super reliable ski that walked all over my highly built Kawasaki ski I had that always broke. There is a huge difference between fresh water use or salt water use. Florida salt water ate up our skis. Forgot what is was like to always ride in fresh water. Yamahas rule, used to after work throw in a new crank and pistons with just a couple of tools. Sea-doos needed a thousand tools and the salt corroded every stink'n nut and bolt. I wish I had met Erickson performance back in my days !! Now I'm wondering if I can still ride a stand up. I think I can ! Still love the square noses. Excellent video here ! Thanks y'all

@valuedhumanoid6574 Год назад

Back in the early 90's my dad bought us a pair of Kawasaki 440 stand up ski's. Good ol' fashion 2 stroke power and you were IN the water, not above it like a Wave Runner. Nothing compares to those old standups. Love it!

@broberts1505 Год назад

"Don't blow them up rich, you blow them up lean". Prophetic words right there.....Definitely taped pre drag week.

NICE! Cool to see those guys in your channel. Everyone in the jet ski community knows these guys.

@dewholdingsllc1050 Год назад

Thanks. I learned a lot about 2cycle PWC by watching it. This content is much more interesting and educational than watching you break stuff at a racetrack.

@scottg391 Год назад

There is nothing more satisfying than working on a standup ski, other than riding it after you get it running... I've owned standup skis for the better part of 40 years starting with the abysmal 550 that once running it was a blast to ride. I pretty much gave up water skiing from that point on. I've melted more motors than I can recall and spent many a late evening stuffing the spare engine in for the next day. My latest acquisition is a 1500Sxi, which is a big ski with gobs of power and cruising across the lake at 50mph is good enough for this old man. My days of subs and back flips are over and the big ski keeps me from trying even the simplest of tricks. Have fun on that Yamaha, it's the perfect ski for your wife and kids.

@nothanks9050 Год назад

The perfect way to let off steam after a crazy drag week, have fun ripping around on that beast! I have fond memories of my kawasaki ultra 150 back in the day, love 2 strokes!

@FarmerFpv Год назад

Super sick, bro. I was just out on the river with my stand-up. We were hitting the massive wakes of the gigantic barges coming through the middle of the river.

@79tazman Год назад

Those back flips were bad ass I have not been on a stand up jet ski since the 1990s but man they look like so much fun

@homedad3324 Год назад

Finnegan's school boys smile when he's going fast on water always makes me laugh. It's the look of pure joy.

@TrevorDennis100 Год назад

A really interesting video Mike. It's so good to watch someone who is so knowledgeable and professional. Having said that, it was still a wake up call hearing Mike say that while the ski is now crazy fast, it has underlined the limitations of a hull never meant to handle that much power and speed. If you are going to tame that hull in future videos, i'll be 100% sure to watch them.

@CARRIERGUY Год назад

Enjoyed the video. Guy is really sharp on jetskis and easy to understand when hes explaining it! Awesome!

@1BrianSawyer Год назад

42:50 Mark is absolutely correct. Love watching his videos and learning from him. His channel was a huge help on my last engine build! What he's describing is basically a supercharger for a 2-stroke. If the sound waves are tuned correctly, you can stuff some of that exhaust back into the cylinder for the next combustion cycle. Not a supercharger, but similar principle.

@midwestshitshow5887 Год назад

Mike, I've watched everything since the early days.. this channel is awesome!! I can't get enough of these longer episodes man!!! God bless!!

@jerrykawatski9940 Год назад

Good info, nice setup , I have had 3 super jets if you count one that was just a hull , and 4 kawasakis over the years. I lived in southwest florida for years thousands of hours on personal water craft for real. I ran beach services for 5 years. I would play around with different ride plates and maybe nozzles before I touched the hull . The super jets hulls were great and easier to corner because they cornered flatter than the kawasakis. Wide open just bend your knees more and shift your wieght forward . My old boss had a 94 with a set close to yours , when you held it wide open and let of the gas it felt like you were putting on the brakes becuse it pulled so hard. Have fun watch out for boats and use the landyard. The old kawasakis used to circle when you crashed and you had to swim after them unless you set the idle down low, not good in the mangrove trails. Thanks great job, keep up the good work

Haha, loved that you guys timed the removal. Had me on edge there for a minute. That would have definitely taken me 10x the time with my luck.

@ryurc3033 Год назад

For real, when he said 20 minutes I thought, are you sure? I do plenty good on cars,(hub assembly is a 30 minute deal ) but last time I worked on a wave runner I almost pulled my hair out......trying to get to the starter under the exhaust. Sit on skis don't seem to have as much access.

@mxracingunlimitedltd7784 Год назад

Love my Superjet and it was literally instant start every time for the first 5yrs at least and then just a starter relay and then i replaced the start/stop switch with a new one bc it was starting to act up. One cool thing about buying the Start/Stop Switch new from Yamaha OEM is that it includes the Nice OEM Safety Lanyard which is like 25$ alone or something and i like the oem one that has the piece to go around your wrist or to clip it on to the life jacket. Makes the price seem a little better at 150$ for the new one, complete ready to install. He's got a nice solid setup there now, its going to be an insane difference from a stock 700, because an exhaust on a 700 gives you like 20hp alone lol, nevermind the 64X 760 cylinder on there. Cograts man! Rocking the clean SN. My first SJ was SN and i wish i still had that one..

The biggest trick on the welded on nut removal is the first weld. If you just give it a pop on the initial weld it basically seals the nut/broken bolt from anymore welding getting good penetration. Have to commit right from the get go.

There is a RU-vid channel "2 Stroke Stuffing" he built a crazy supercharged 50 cc 2 stroke pretty cool

@El_Chompo Год назад

37:40 "It's to tune velocity" I'm pretty sure it's purpose is to resonate at a certain wavelength (rpm) and create boost. From the studies I've seen published online, a standard-ish 2-stroke with expansion pipe will make 8 to 10 pounds of pressure above atmospheric while "on the pipe" aka, when the RPM is within the resonance match of the pipe. If you want to see an example of an expanding exhuast pipe that DOES help to tune the velocity, look at the formula 1 headers from the last several years. You will see that they come out of the engine block at a certain diameter, and after about 4 to 10 inches the primary tube will step up about 5 to 10% in size. I'm not 100% sure the science behind this but all the F1 cars do it so it must help!
