Breaking In the New Ebay Turbo on 20psi 

It's cool looking back and seeing how far Hayden has come in terms of welding skills.

real street car builders! light chassis hondas with budget built setups! sick as fuck ! boosted boiz 100! fun as hell

for eBay turbos, Speedfactory used to run these on one of their 10 sec Vitara hatches. big factor to your oil leak is running too big of an oil line. -3 is recommended but if running a -4 you'll want an oil restrictor.

I love that rainbow effect after welding it looks really cool.

Glad to see you guys making progress on the Odyssey

Love seeing these eBay turbos work out for people, keep it up. I'm working on piecing together a turbo d16, gonna work my way up to 30psi lol

legit been waiting all day for y'all to upload love this channel keep up the good work

Damn now she’s awd k swapped turbo 😍😍😍 u came a long way bro keep it up

Nice work mate, glad to see the channel is growing a good clip

This might sound stupid but this channel and you guys are the reason why I am taking a shot at fixing my truck. I knew a decent amount about Chevy motors and then my head gasket blew. I own a 2.2l Chevy s10 96 4cyl automatic 120 k miles I wanted to save it and this channel just gave me the confidence that kids my age can do this stuff

At first I wasn't sure, but I actually really like having Hayden in the videos. Plus he films pretty well. Great vid man. As always.

I love this channel! I am obsessed with Hondas (motorcycles) and turbos. I drive a 2013 Fiat 500 Abarth and I have a Focus zx3 that is begging for boost... your vids are motivation.

"Just one oreo??" xD Hayden is like wtf how do you eat just one. Hahaha.

Am i the only one who thinks kyle looks like thomas from project x lmao

glad I found this channel! been here since the hatch build

Kyle, 4k left dude!! it's amazing!! KEEP IT UP BOIZ

You guys should make stickers that say fuck it, since Hayden always says it

good to see a new turbo installed the feeds working good it seems like aybe even better

i love how they upload at like 4 am likes its perfect no one else i follow does that and its the best just waiting for it to come because it always does

Good guys, keep up the good work 🏁

glad u uploaded was jus abt t sleep

what the real problem with the original turbo was the sharp 90 degree drain fitting would not allow the oil to properly drain thus over pressurized the center section seal weeping past the gap.

you guys living the life.

The question is will last longer now, the motor, the trans, or the turbo! Its like a game show!

For an oil feed you run a small -4an 90* facing forward toward the radiator on the center section. That is pressurized higher and can go through a 90* no problem. Te return needs to straight with no bends. Even a single 90* is sketchy. You can get "push lock" style barb fittings in -an and come right out of the bottom of the turbo with a 45* facing the oil pan. The whole reason the seals are blown are due to the clocking of the turbo.

@boostedboiz, If your return line has any resistance the turbo will eat oil. In other words no 90 deg fittings only strait large diameter lines (mandrel bends only). This is of the most importance, also new seals ( bushings ) are around 7 dollars

I still have the same eBay turbo that you bought and it has over 20,000 miles on it by now and it's still tight as a drum. I bought a second one because one of the downpipe bolts broke off in the exhaust housing and it only lasted like 1000 miles before the seals went bad and it started smoking. I took the exhaust housing off of that turbo, put it on the first turbo, and I'm still rocking it on my B series in my EK Civic coupe. It's luck of the draw brother. Sometimes you get a good one, and sometimes you get a shit one.

For that oil line you could use a small block spark plug wire heat sock I got mine at napa. They just slip on over the plug and plug wire to protect against the heat from the header

There it is

I like the videos found your channel only recently. I found it quite interesting you talking about the welding tests for job. A helium mix seems to be the preferred shielding gas for welding aluminium as it is more versatile. with helium you definitely see a deeper digging effect then argon. That's why it pools so quickly. all welds need to have some sort of destructive test to ensure that welds are sound even if it is a multipass

It's 3:38am when I'm watching this lol I should probably sleep and watch it tomorrow (later today) fuck it

very fine grit

I've been running a T25 ebay turbo, no filter for 20k miles, I live in the northwest if that makes a difference and she still spooling like a champ!

Surprised that no one has said this - but that huge bend in the return line is likely why the seals blew. If you don't have an absolutely smooth, and almost completely vertical oil drain line with a large orifice, you will build pressure in the cartridge. This will cause either premature wear of the seals, or if it's bad enough, it'll push through immediately. Should definitely tend to this. I like your videos because they remind me when I was new to building tuners, just throwing shit together to get it to work. Not dissing you at all - it's all a learning experience and brings back memories of me and my buddies.

you have no idea how long I've been waiting for a upload ...I checked atleast 3-4 times a day

We don't have emissions tests here in upstate ny, but you can't have a check engine light on, and like 5 of the 7 readiness codes need to be passed. That's how they get ya from clearing codes 2 minutes before you drive in.... musta cleared em on a cold start or something and had some drive time to the inspection station, or CO isn't that strict.

the oil port orientation is not about the inlet its more about the outlet. as gravity feeds the drain it needs to be able to drain easily. 30deg from vert is all you can safely allow.

The boyz just talking normal casually cussing like we’re chillin with them. And best part was Hayden taking about doing shitty on his welding exam only to start his own badass company. We’ve come a long way boys. Cheers!

niec gauges, cant wait to see them installed and lit up.

just saw that you still need the wastegate gasket, on my 3 cylinder turbo diesel garden tractor I just use orange high temp silicone, its good to like 2000 degrees and ive had it hold 30psi with no issues, i use it for everything on the hot side that needs a gasket

fuck yea i love waking up to your videos

you need a 90° fitting into the turbo and run the feed on the dizzy side if u want to re clock the turbo straight up and down

I have the dna turbo on my forged 383 stroker. Use that restrictor makes a huge difference. If those turbos get to much oil they piss oil out the seals. Mines been clocked at a 45 for a years no problem dont worry.

Randomly got recommended this, Jesus it feels like I watched this a year ago. Had no idea it was so long ago man.

New turbo! new boost

This was the first video I ever watched if yours.

sickest sleeper

"I lift Oreos into my mouth", good one:)

im fighting heat and too much oil with my turbo.. same thing happened to me.. drain got a small place in it and stopped the oil smoked i fixed it and now just taking it easy till i order another one... same one you ordered.

sent yall a pakage it should be there soon

Awesome video :)

subscribed straight after the 1 Oreo chat LOL

I have that same turba good thing I can see how it does before I upgrade

I cant get over them weld lines.

Cool to see where he was at three years ago now he makes custom manifolds good job Haden

The issue with not clocking the turbos straight up and down I believe is it blows out your seals faster if it's not within the 15 degree area. The oil doesn't drain out properly and pushes through the seals and burns the oil. The oil feed is no concern.

Pumping oreos and cran-mango on the front seat. Nice 21psi on the new ebay SNAIL. Get those bolts back in your torsion bar, better grip on the front wheel drive.

Fucking cool bunch of guys. Keep it up. This channel is great. 🍺

Real quick

Subbed for the intro

12:40 the problem wasnt insufficient oil it was pooling too much in the cavity allowing it to weep into the turbine

The engine sounded better at this boost level. You should consider keeping it in that range that way it lasts longer and drives smoother. It seems to be the sweet spot for the rods and cam that you went with. Consider lower compression ratio & higher lift cam to address some flow restrictions. This will safely get you running higher psi levels. But you will likely need e85 or methanol to keep up. Trying to up boost much more in current trim will continue to be a big maintenance issue. Seems the turbo oil line gravity feed restriction would only become a wear issue if you are pushing 30psi+, the higher the boost the more oil pressure is created and that factory single cam oil pump sure isn't optimized for oil needs of that big turbo at high boost. The step down in size of your fittings prior wasn't helping the restriction either. Part of the reason those turbo seals fail at high boost is snapping throttle closed under psi turbine is decelerating rapidly and air pressure builds in the piping, bov vents so pressure drops, turbo decels more which is ok but so is engine so not much oil pressure then turbo is starved intermittently and momentarily. Whenever decel a bov turbo car on boost helps to close throttle about half or just enough until bov vents and then that's when you let off the rest of the way. This will help the high rpm turbine last longer. Turbo Tricks.

FLUFFY

MR2 is going to be hella sick!

have ya thought about using a 45 -an fitting then use a cut to length hose the same diameter of fitting into the pan. IMO it's always best to have a larger return line than feed, allows for a smoother free flow. Also would look on ebay for a longer braided line for the feed, run it from the back of the block, over to the passenger wide and over the cold side of the turbo, that way ya don't have to worry about it resting on the manifold. Fucked up thing is, the braided line will be less than the fitting.

fyi stock oil returns in general are 16 millimeter inside diameter once you get under 10mm you start restricting the oil flow and blown seals

I think we should all give Hayden props for stepping up and being more videos lately. I can honestly say he makes videos entertaining AF. Everyone sub to his channel! @SuicideCRX

the oil line not being straight up and down wont hurt anything... if its really off the turbo might burn some oil, but thats mostly because of the drain not the supply

that 90 degree oil return. major issue on journal bearing turbos. need a slavage pump to go back to the oil pump

I'm just saying wrapping the header is gonna be a time saver

Is Charlie still tryna find his flip flops? lol

Maybe if your oil feed was closer to vertical rater than 30-40deg then your oil could drain out and not weep past the compressor and turbines seals that have their seals clocked with ring gap set to the top as in towards the oil feed. When clocked that badly you will fail sooner rather than later. Run a longer line and put a banjo fitting on the inlet and clock it correctly.

back @ it again with 430am uploads 😏

That Oreos bit 😂

You guys should take a stock d series car (like the beater sedan) and make a series on building it for boost, like explaining how to do everything like how you'd do it for the wagos

Go full 3 inch on the piping, or at least make the cold side 3 inch. Keep up the good work man, love your videos!

stayed up late for this one!

Hey I'm having the same turbo smoking issue on my freshly rebuilt turbonetics turbo on my ka-t 240sx. When it was rebuilt they told me to use 3/4- 1 inch return line but the biggest I could find was 5/8 so that's what I'm using. And that's what I thought was causing it was that the drain wasn't draining fast enough but I later learned the the new oil punk I put it is probably pumping too much oil so I made a oil restrictor for the feed and that seemed to help but I have oil on both sides of my turbo sadly so I think I need another rebuild now that I have the restrictor on. But no shaft play and builds full boost!

The turbo is clocked funny, the wastegate is in a terrible place, the oil line to the turbo is crazy close to the exhaust manifold, the car is hacked up, some of the wielding is a little questionable, but it still goes like a bat out of hell. Nice.

wish i had a friend like you 😢

Hayden understands my plight with the Oreo's.

Big fan Keep up the good work Question You guys using Ebay turbo. You guys seem to have good luck with it. Do you guys daily your Ebay turbo?

Yes

I have the same scanner that thing is well worth the money..

correct me of im wrong but i beleive you preform your welds in sequence insted of one on either side and then another in the middle. i think your supposed to go from one side to the other so they tie in.

good video

I bet on of those little spark plug heat shield boots would work good where the oil feed line is close to the ex mani prob pick one up for cheap

OG dayssss! Where it all started…

plumbing advice for the future, 2 45 elbows reduce a ton of the kick back that you were talkin about

when is the civic going to be put back on the road.

stay boosted... boyz

Its leaking oil as the turbo is clocked weirdly and all the 90's on the tiny drain. A tight 90 up top and get it straighter down bottom- she'd be apples.

within 10 seconds you said "shaft play " and "took a shit on me" LOL

My car has a henyee v40 turbo from amazon :/ Dealer installed. Been on 1k miles at max 16psi. Personally I'd of spent really money on the turbo because I want it to last. He installed before I purchased the car. Really hope these turbos are good

Need to see wagon on 40psi! 500 wheel!

I don't think your guys' angle is too dramatic for the drain it's probably fine I just hope that that little fitting you welded is at least a 1/2'' or bigger.....

T3/T4 step gap seals don't leak, are inexpensive, and easy to install.

i just watched one your videos...y'all were in Colorado huh on i25 near Longmont and firestone... I live right there

at high boost you need that to be straight down with gravity

Dope!
