Mans smart enough to be a cardiologist . But works on cars, I wish I would have seen this before studying for my doctrine. Working on humans is way to stressful also; paying people to work on my car is getting too crazy!
for getting the hot air out of the toolbox , maibe put a small actuator / linear servo under the lid so it lifts open the lid about an inch or so should make it flow a LOT more air and when parked with the lid down it still be invissable gunny thing that years ago i did some benchracing on the turbo forum and suggested just about the exact thing youre building , planned to reverse mount the intake and have the exhaust go out the tank fill flap though probably would do a water to air intercooler not a lot of airflow needed
Congratulations on hitting a major milestone for the channel Preston. 100K is no joke and you've worked your ass off for it. Every single episode has been a blast to watch. Thank you for sharing your adventures. 🍻 Here is to hitting the next 100K in half the time 😎👍🏽 Stay hungry.
if you mark your cutout then use a hole saw in the corners before you cut the rest out you get much better looking results instead of sharp corners it looks intentional and only takes a couple min to do
oh, man...i remember when you were just cracking 20k... i won headlight bulbs from the live stream you did with the cage builder that broke his back some years later...keep showing the work... love what you do... and yes, i like the dip and powder videos as well..
Another perfect video, congrats on 100k. Extensive, independent, and very technical exhaust system testing🗣. Not what I came here for, but I'm here for it. And 2👍👍for the use of cutouts. You possibly introduced many to the existence of them. Although you use yours for camouflage, they have a great use in the hobby. ---Following is a P.S.A.--- for those who need to hear it. Cutouts, this single item is much needed on many "street builds." Martha (or Karen) at the end of your street does not want to listen to the (shitty straight pipe) sound of you going to work at 530 every morning. They will complain, laws will be added, etc... save the hobby, don't just cut off your exhaust system, buy and install cutouts. Save the hobby. PS. The same goes for rolling coal. Although it can be funny, that guy in the Prius is probably on the city or county council. He loves the EPA. I will step off my soap box📣 now and see myself🚪 out 😂.
100% i live and work on our family farm and often dont get to sleep untill 3AM i live on a hill with a nice long strait away i cant tell you the number of people that just cant seem to keep from ripping up it their fun is my lack of sleep also came real close to cutting a shit box in half when it was racing up said hill and i was pulling out of the yard with a tractor with a 4ft long round bale spike on the loader my day would not have been great his would have been alot worse
I been here from the beggining, when the bug had a hackedbup integra front end welded into it. So glad to see you finally hit 100k mark, its a big hurdle. Congratulations
@GARAGEIdiotS no need to apologize, RU-vid is a very tough egg to Crack. I have always thought you worked hard and made awesome content. Keep it up Also remember, giveaways are the current trend and can be very lucrative and bring in viewers. Thanks for the great entertainment!
Congrats on the 100K man! Love your laugh... makes you sound like a mad scientist! (BTW, the tool box without the intercooler looks like a good place to keep your burritos warm)
Man I can't wait to follow your progress I'm building an ls swapped 91 reg cab shortbox 4x4 as a mud truck and I want to do a remote mount turbo to keep the mud away from it and I'm going to follow alot of design aspects from you. keep up rhe good work and keep wrenching
to add extra cooling/air flow into the tool box to help with turbo heat you could put some small fans in some of the cut outs you made or do something sim to what you did for the intercooler
I love these kinds of builds from you. Seems like there was a lot of effort to hide the turbo but I feel like that exhaust under the truck attracts enough attention on its own.
Fuggin heel,that abrasives combination package is elite 👀💪🏽 and just when you start to think there is too much fuckery going on,Tig comes to the rescue and restores the goods.
After watching you for better than 5 years now I'd be lying if I said I wasn't excited to see the Jeep run just sleep for idea is awesome man I'm loving it
Awesome man. Love the project. My more door canyon v8 turbo is gonna come together quick...month delay because welder died. Just got new welder setup today.
Hey man, Awesome video. Can't wait to see this out on the road causing trouble. So thanks for sharing the craziness. ✌️ Peace from Melbourne Australia.
I've started a Cadillac Northstar with 4 injectors unplugged after a starter job, and it ran about a minute before I realized it was running a _little_ rough.
I have a 4" boost activated fender dump and a full 3" exhaust. The great part is lights street tires before it even has enough load to crack the dump. Pretty much don't have enough traction to open the dump on the street so it's always quiet
I love my 2005 GMC Canyon (similar), got it for $4k cash at start of pandemic. It had 138K miles, runs great. The odometer is now up to 150K, still running strong. My first pickup truck, hoping there will be a conversion kit or replacement engine for it, when that time comes.
GRATTS AND HAPPY TO 100.000 SUBSCRIBERS, FINALLY AT ONE OF THE MILE STONES! HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING SINCE ABOUT YOU HAD 12- 15.000 SUBSCRIBERS, and you always said if we only had 100K subscribers we could do car building full time ⁉️ Is what going to happen................ Nicely done Preston!
the top of the turbobox has that descending lip, could raise it up so it's not visible unless purposely looking from below but has a decent gap between it and the walls. sound may be a problem with this idea though also the "accidental holes" definitely arent accidental, they're just a way to save weight
Someone clearly hasn't been watching this channel for long. It's garage idiots. Idiots is the operative word..... And must of us are here for it.... Sixty percent of the time it works every time!
Use Harbor freight tool boxes, I'm thinking they're lighter than most 😂 And you'd benefit from an oscillating cutter for the tight corners ( carbide cutters are well worth the extra cost)
20 years ago I hid a 10 pound nitrous bottle in a picnic basket in the back of my mint 1967 Chevy Impala station wagon, I rebuilt the original 300 h.p. original 327 engine, added a mild cam and headers, and a 700r4 tranny. The big whale would haul ass, it surprised and amazed quite a few unsuspecting cars.
They anodize aluminum for the same reason you paint or powder coat steel....... They also do it to seal the inferior quality of material used to cast! That specific product is not intended to be fabricated any further, it has a bolt on flange and threads for a fitting. If you needed a stand pipe you could just thread in a pipe with the proper threads, you could also weld the fitting to the pipe and thread the pipe and not have to prep (rid the coating/anodizing) but it doesn't really matter it's anodized because either way you want to prep and clean all material before welding! Anyway, still a sick build!
Hopefully they crossed it first and didn't get into another tool box before hand otherwise "fuking score!" And they unbolt all that sht and still take your sht!
I been debating doing a rear/remote mount in the bed of my ranger.. How well does the oil system work? Any issues with the oil too-from turbo ? like ie: daily driving?.. what pump would you recommend for a scavenge/return pump? and did you need too restrict the oil psi TOO the turbo in-feed?
I just wonder if Preston has ever thought of or tried using gutter downspouts for piping. Either intake or exhaust. Has anyone done this. There’s got to be.
Ngl what you could addd to the truck to help hide the side pipes is possibly add some side steps or rock sliders to hopefully hide them, but idk that could also add a substantial amount of weight and add some extra hassle
Well that's creative going to be a big surprise for the guy who tries to steal the tools in your toolboxes😂 I'm digging those Nitto NT420s tires not sure why 🤔 my ID 🤣
I found a video with ALOT of tig knowledge in it from chris razor on steve Morris's channel the title is about welding copper pipe that carries a ton of voltage. Also i suggest putting running boards on it, will hide that pipe beautifully
