You could slap an Ebay turbocharger on your ride and call it a day, or, you could do it the right way. In this video Humble Mechanic and I walk through the many different steps and components which should be addressed when installing a turbocharger (or supercharger). Turbo, intercooler, oil cooling, fuel injectors, fuel pump, ECU mapping/chipping, cooling, spark plugs, compression ratio, and so on!

HumbleMechanic I used to be a Volkswagen guy then I went to JDM more power less frustration less money, anyway why did you get such a crappy Turbo! you didn't really tell us the model but I'm pretty sure that's a journal bearing turbo I would have spent a little bit more money considering everything else you're doing to the car and get a gt35r.. Just wondering...?

Zack Cernok he said he got a t3 turbo in the beginning of the vid..... also I think why he went with this is because he got the cheaper side but also a reliable and higher hp add. Getting a nicer turbo can result in higher hp but if you are running a sleeper (which I tend to think about vw) and wanting not waste all ur money on one component like a turbo, then the t3/t4 would be the best

Being that Arizona is experiencing 120°F+ weather lately (which I haven't felt for approx 20 years), could you perhaps do a video discussion on the affects of extreme heat on a motor (both forced induction and naturally aspirated)? Or perhaps any other aspect of the vehicle that may be adversely affected by extremely high temperatures? Thank you. Take care my friend.

Srsly Brah because it's purpose is to bring cool air to the turbo and black absorbs heat the most. So making it black would make it less effective since it would be adorning heat, that's the reason why they are mostly whiter colours since white absorbs the least amount of heat.

Upgraded fans can actually reduce cooling at speed. A crossflow radiator is the simple way to increase your cooling capacity at all vehicle speeds. A larger (or oversized) intercooler is actually a good idea to increase reliability, as it reduces IAT significantly. Even though that turbo is over twice as large as necessary, this is good to keep IATs down as well, since 10psi is at the low end of it's efficiency island.

Turbocharging my tacoma was probably one of the coolest things I've ever done. The same truck and engine come (came) factory with optional supercharger pushing 6-8 PSI, so 8 PSI from a turbo is nothing she can't handle. EVERYTHING about the engine and fueling is stock. Has methanol injection to compensate for the extra air, so I get extra fuel and way higher knock threshold in one package. 4 years later she's still boosting and whoopin booties.. in fact just whooped a chipped and tuned Cummings the other night. Fun fun

Do it right the 1st time: 1.) The car: a FWD Honda Civic. 2.) The engine: an I-4 because of Honda and you won't need forged internals because of Honda. 1000 horsepower + here we come. 3.) The purpose: because superchargers are for muppets and wannabees. Either turbo or don't do it at all. 4.) Long term goals. Apply boost gradually so your engine can slowly handle that increased stress on the internals. With proper patience your Honda Civic will be hitting the 1/4 mile within 9 second times. Then you can drive up to people with Bugatti Veryon's and laugh at the billionaire's that wasted their money on fake power and probably get his lady passenger, as well. 5.) If you really really do it right, you can make your car into a time machine. My civic hit so hard one time I almost went back in time... well, almost. True talk.

I'm a bit late to the party, but another thing that you should make sure can handle the power: your rims. Someone I know ran around with a 1987 Toyota Supra Mk 3 with a 1JZ Twin Turbo pushing I think 12 or 14 PSI of boost or something. He was running Centerline Forged 6-spoke 18" rims, and cracked all 4 rims. He found cracks in the rears, swapped the fronts and rears, then cracked those too. So badly that at least 1 spoke was cracked clean through, inside to out of the rim and was completely seperated. He was only pushing about 310-320 HP too, those may have been "bad" rims but keep that in mind when turbo'ing your car. Make sure like they said, your tires and brakes can handle the extra power. But also make sure your rims can handle it too.

Pe Peroni currently going on 170k miles on my 05 GLI. Upgraded the clutch, flywheel, diverter valve, intake/exhaust, turbo, software, and intercooler and the only real issue I've had has been replacing the fuel pump when the original started dieing. (fingers crossed)

Yes, most of the time they use front splitters to make down force at the front, but there is a TC race car that actually installs a huge wing at the front, to compensate for the FWD traction loss(which is pretty bad @ 700whp & torque!): www.motortrend.com/news/front-wingequipped-scion-tc-breaks-lap-record-at-willow-springs-5235/

Great idea....unless you are one who would rather build your own rather then just buy what everyone else can. Not to mention a lot of times the car you like is not available with a factory turbo, which is all the more fun when some unsuspecting factory turbo car owner comes across a car the knows does not have one...and it does.

generic kit, like bought in 2002 440cc "bosch" ev6 injectors, chipped stock ecu, the "allmighty" t3/t4 turbo, the decrompression plate, 255lph walbro. I mean there's nothing wrong with this stuff, but when i'm doing this, i might aswell do it like it's done in 2017. he's spending that "much" money, but focuses on the wrong parts... stock ecu has no overboost protection, no lean under boost safety, no egt correction, no fuel pressure fail safe... gauges are not completely useless but still useless, you can't keep an eye on the health status of your car all the time.

true, hard to beat the price though for a kit like that. but i do agree in your points. Even the turbo seems kinda pointless in this kit if hes only thinking about running 10 psi of boost.

I'd also change pistons to ones with higher copper content. If the piston bottom is cooled by oil, the higher heat transfer rate will come in handy. Also, make sure to choose an engine oil that can handle a higher temperature rating.

great tips ! Personally one of my personal tips is learning about how NA cars being converted to NA-T can have issues with their oem vacuum orientation. Reason being is because lets say you have actuators that work only under vacuum at a certain rpm. Lets say around that same RPM your car begins to form boost. well that actuator is going to work oppositely compared to what its designed to do because its line is being filled with pressure instead of vacuum. I personally always run an external oil cooler on my turbo converted vehicles. aswell as upgraded radiator. making sure everything is cooling more efficiently over stock is key. i've seen some supras where they have some really nice high end mods and then they are rocking the stock radiator.
