BBG CUSTOM TURBO MANIFOLD FABRICATION - VR V6 TURBO COMMODORE UTE - PT 2 

Stumbled across your channel. It's good to see old school home brewed turbo conversions and fabrication, not just bolting on some bits.

Sounds like some pantera influence in the music. Nothin better good music and turbos. Good work man

One thing you could do is heat the headers to remove welding stresses, at around 620 degrees C for thirty minutes should do the trick or 4 hours at 300 degrees C say in a normal oven. That should help remove the formation of micro cracks. Of course once its operating on the engine you will get higher temps , but you want to remove the stress before its bolted up so it wont twist and move around in the first couple of uses. It is also a good thing to do after bead blasting, for a bit less time, to stop skin related stress cracks. Good luck. P.S. leave the welding backbone frame on.

Good on ya mate it’s always good stumbling across Channels like yours. Should be a tough rig when your finished ✅

Awesome job man came up mint as I know the struggles of making these having just finnished my own, keen to see how it turns out as you went a slightly different way to what I did... keep up the good work 😊

Love watching time lapse fabrication. Love the look of those headers. Can you take out material between the merge pipe and other runners to provide a bit more cross over flow between both sides and allow both sides to be vented

Good job mate. Looks good. Lets hope it fits around the strut. 👍 keep it up.

Amazing work bro, missed the meticulous attention that you pay towards your cars, love seeing that go into a mang motor 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😎

Ripper job mate..looking forward to seeing this on the car

Good work mate !

Can't wait to see it finished

Wow there some meaty looking runners things going to breathe deeply now

im soo jelly awesome job!!

Great vid mate i subbed cheers

Hey mate. I plan on turboing my 1gr-fe and fabricating everything myself. Just wonder the best source for all the steam pipes.

Great video again! With the curved section of pipe for the waste gate is there a trick to cutting the base of the pipe to match the curve to the pipe you're welding it to?

Liked it and subbed mate.

looks great mate

Looks great without paint going to look better with

So, the wastegate only works on 2 out of 6 cylinders?

beautiful welds

Looks good man

good video but i wish i have a welder to make evrything works haha

Hey man just curious as to what size wastegate you're running?

Donde queda esa compañia ...yo necesito hacer uno para mazda protege un palo diganme donde

Can you do a vid of doing the oil and water lines

How much i would pay

I’ve noticed all the manifolds for turbo V6 motors have the cross over going around the front. But could you have it bending over the top of the bell housing around the back of the motor? Or does it effect the flow?

Nice one

Sick

Awesome work Carl. You're Smashing it. Will be good to see in Toby for the test fit. Not going to smash the Subscribe button coz that means i'll unsubscribe HA!

Could you not put the waste gate on the other bank? (For a little more room) Or would you end up with massive over boost issues, being so far from the turbo? Also, if so could you not tune it out?

woah nice work bud

Curious as to why you've stuck with the Buick 3.8 v6 as opposed to upgrading to a ecotec 3.8 v6 ?

No longer equal lengthing?

That last pipe looked like an absolute BITCH to weld

I think Satan himself could stand on that & it would not give...time lapse just doesnt relay how much is involved with this setup...welds...spark plugs...bolts..spacing..ughhhh! Kudos!

Could u make my life simple and just sell kits 🤣🤣
