Put a wot box on it

Nitrous or turbo? Why not both?

Why not just put a bigger cheapo motor like from Harbor Freight? Twin cyl??

Should have added a wheelie bar for that kind of power.

That turbo works best on like a 500cc engine 500-600 should put one on proper bike like a cbr 600. Ghostrider had a similar setup. can actually make some really good power. That turbo will make 15 psi under the right conditions

new shirt idea!

Agreed

@Jack Wrath who

@Jack Wrath nah

I have not watched the video yet, waiting on 2 ads right now, but that better be James that said that it sounds like him 😂

Agree. Miles above Carwow sadly.

@@purwantiallan5089 there’s so much above donut as well. But everything has its own flaws and tops

@@purwantiallan5089 carwow isn't a tinkering channel.

@@NVIDIAGeekify Exactly. Carwow is fantastic for its own reasons same as Donut is fantastic for this reason. I find myself frequently crossing between channels they're both very entertaining.

That comment didn't age well

@@Melan.D I don't know why I said that

@@ctakitimu What u on brother 😆😅😂 lemme have sm 🤣

@@Melan.D Well, I'm blazing up atm, and I'd be happy to share if you weren't thousands of miles away (probably)

I had the same thoughts... got himself sweet gear for "work"

I’m pretty sure they have like 10 nice racing suits lying around the garage at this point lol

Buy?! I’m sure it was a freebie.

I was slightly appalled at their lack of safety gear in previous episodes. You don't need to spend 10gs but it's 100% worth it. Even less expensive, but properly tested, safety gear is worth it's weight in gold.

Hi-Low bikes should be, None other then SV650's. Massive aftermarket and even race series for them specifically - also pretty cheap to obtain.

@@_PSYDUCK_ would be too dangerous for testing

Next season of Hi-Low will be fwd jdm drag cars

@@justinroser6833 with some proper training (i.e California Superbike School) and the correct riders, it would mitigate risk. You couldn't completely remove that risk though. You would need a control rider too for accurate comparisons. You are right though, it would be inheritantly more dangerous.

@@Math_pqn Yuck, no thanks. No one wants to see FWD drag cars with skinny rears.

The Africa Twin is a super nice enduro. 👍

Every day I regret selling my WRR

That’s my take on a video idea but you guys can change the budget, and also for an extra bit , have a pro driver or a special guest come in drive all the cars and rate which one is the best street car

Bro someone just stole my comment nd idea

This would be awesome.

I don't watch hour long KZfaq videos. But I would with that premise.

@@BassFace1776 same here with their personality each person would be a segment of jokes and car building

Old school NASCAR!!! without the racism. Hey... Let's get an Up to Speed episode on Wendell Scott and Wiley T. Ribs. Do it before February so it's not pandering. If you already had it planned for January 16th I will allow it.

I mean, yes, but anyone who deals with hammers on a daily can do that on a whim. Source: I used to build trusses, using a hammer all day. My hammer turned into a giant fidget spinner; spinning it around the head, 720° flipping along the handle, throwing it irresponsibly high and trying to catch it without hitting myself, using it as a baseball bat (and missing 90% of all projectiles), but most of all, double and triple flipping it over its long end. Nearing the end of my time working there, I was pushing quad flips, but those were hard because I had to mix height with spin speed, both of which are intimidating and dangerous. Cool stuff nonetheless

I thought you said mullet flip lol

@@Arthur_da_dog that’s a lot of words. I’m happy for you, or sorry that happened

I was looking for this comment!

@@Arthur_da_dog seriously? Wow. Thats rad and epic.

Honestly, the know how and experience these guys demonstrate is really underrated.

Except for the Subaru Hi-Low season.

@@Nanomusheens it would be arguable that the show is entertaining because they don't know what they're doing. Gives it the some dudes just trying to do something flair.

They must have watched Marty and Moog do it a few years ago....

@@lasskinn474 aaaactually ... i think they know all their mechanical principles down pat (see the bits about the oiling system, etc) and it's the goofy wrapping on the parcel that makes it *look* like they don't know what they're doing. That's the appeal for me anyway.

Don't quite understand how that worked at all since nos isn't combustible.

@@brendan19841111 that's why he's a genius

In the rocket industry we call that engine rich

@@brendan19841111 A proper nos setup will add fuel at the same time. Otherwise your engine will run very poorly.

@@EvenFive 👍

which episode is the one they crash the car?

@@gtviper1158 one of the wrx videos

Anyone know which episode the screwdriver slapping Zach's stomach is from?

James and Nolan are good for D List and all the review stuff Zach and Jere are good for mechanical work and B2B and just explaining cars in general Personally I prefer them all together

Love Zach and Jerry but having Nolan and James just reminds everyone that we are all idiots at one point in time and have knowledgeable friends who are also always learning. It’s a good kic

Anything to protect that beautiful face

lets be honest, it was a 50/50 shot of this crappy little bike killing him after all these mods lol

lol not even close to 12k. A full 1-piece Dainese leather racing suit (like he's wearing) is around $2500 on the extreme high end. All of his gear (boots, helmet, suit, gauntlets) probably totals around $4500 Edit: With a second look, the helmet looks like an AGV Pista GP RR - it was $1450 brand new, and you can get them for $1100 all day long. So maybe around $3500 for everything.

@@Hawk7886 fair enough I'm just going from what he said. I thought 10k sounded excessive tbh.

Yet

We have some at our shop. There are performance tiered kits you can get. We got ours up to thirty. I would love to put. Turbo on them. Of course I haven't finished the video yet..

@@michaelmacdade6629 change the gearing, i have the same bike as donut and mine goes 45-50mph stage 1

With a torque converter it would have gone well over 50mph. That poor little clutch can’t handle it and the gearing runs out way too soon.

There are some compensatory measures they can and/or may have taken to help. Obviously, the engine is intended for 87 and I'm sure they put in higher octane. In addition, rejetting the carb for a richer mixture will cool the charge as it goes through the turbo and is forced to evaporate. With some sort of logic control, they could wire it to open the fuel solenoid (the one used w/ N2O) at WOT to inject extra fuel after the turbo to cool the charge further and reduce knock... And then, of course, they could add an intercooler... but none of that is likely to be a big deal at the 2-3 PSI they are seeing.

Turbos mainly give torque, the increase in power is secondary

@@licenciadoleopoldocanoloza1144 yeah

There will be no un dangerous spot left

im with this idea

Jerr can make it happen

I feel like for that they need a bigger bike!

@Jack Wrath typical bot

this uses a centrifugal clutch, but they do make torque converter kits for these to upgrade the transmission

Oh god, who is building after market parts for these?

@@lostalone9320 lots, its just a honda clone

​@@kylemilford5968You have to check if it's a hemi or no-hemi engine, but yes

Wait why do you need the tank? This isn't a 2 stroke.... Oh it's cuz it is a single cylinder right?

We need the R3 to come back to the channel. That was by far one of my favorite donut episodes

10000% support this!!!

I’ve hit 45 miles with governor removed , header pipe and 40 tooth sprocket and I’m 280 pounds 😅

@rubengomez1589 Yeah the sprocket makes a HUGE difference! I was just about to run a new one that would've cut my ratio in half, and theoretically near doubled the speed. Unfortunately, I sold it because as a 15 year old, the police don't like when I ride it on the street and I wasn't looking to get my license at 18. I also never fully disabled the governor because I didn't want my valves to float, and didn't feel like spending 300 on a new flywheel, valve springs, and rod. These things rip if you know what to do with them!

Remove the governor and get a billet rod and billet flywheel so the stock one won’t explode past a certain rpm. And also putting a torque converter on or just straight chain helps by getting rid of the stock jack shaft setup

Nice

Why lmao, they make enough

@@BackBlowerPete jet engines ain't cheap

ive never seen a donation on a comment

@BackBlowerPete so you're telling me and the rest of whoever sees this comment, that donut doesn't deserve more money than they already make?

Love those v4 engines, sound is so unique

These colemans are incredibly tough. Mine makes about 18 horsepower and can hit 60 in just a few seconds

They are pretty simple structures, and that engine is such low performance that its not really pushing it even when you double the power. Consider that KTM makes a similar size 200cc that makes 26 HP stock, you realize these aren't exactly competing against stock small motorcycles even with a turbo and NOS.

14:15, it didn't last a day with those modifications. But if you left it stock I would give it a year and my 14yr old self would have that thing ragged. Been there done that.

@@jakegarrett8109 The bike uses incredibly thin tubing. It is marketed as a children’s toy. They are not sold as motorcycles at all, they are mini-bikes with a 196cc log-splitter engine. This bike is $799, KTM’s 200 is a real motorcycle and costs thousands of dollars. I don’t think it is fair to compare. I paid an additional 800 for Tillotson 225 racing motor with 18+ hp that will make you shit your pants. It is not legal or practical at all, but it is fun. In their videos, the turbo and nos do almost nothing as the gearing has not changed and they made no modifications to the internals of the engine. I would be surprised if their bike makes even 12hp. These Coleman’s have the potential to hit 60+ mph. KTM’s bike is also a full-size motorcycle, these are much smaller.

@@nicholasgascoyne3144 I'm aware the limitations, since they were doing drag testing I'd keep the gearing stock (or use a CVT from a go-cart, or I've also got a small torque converter which allows you to double your torque at takeoff but mine doesn't have electromagnetic torque locking capability so you'll lose top speed due to inefficiency not being able to lock it at speed). My guess is they turned that 6-6.5 HP engine into MAYBE 10 HP (could be 12, but I'm with you its still very close to single digits), and that's kind of my point. Any motorcycle engine is going to make more, even my grandfather's 90cc did 70 mph stock with a full size adult. Kids wreck these all the time though, and you don't want parents angry that a broken pipe jabbed into a kids leg, so its not that thin. Also my neighbor was about 200-230 pounds when he was 12 (he looked like an adult), and his little 96cc roughly minibike held up to him making little tiny ramps (which is a massive loading condition coming down without suspension), so the frame design is quite good for what it is (it could be better, but its actually not that bad). And with low power its not exactly twisting the engine out of its mounts.

24 hours of lemon style, but instead it’s a cannonball run

Could have even upgraded the fuel needals and increased the size of the fuel line diameter to improve fuel delivery
