I FIXED My Friend’s Blown Turbo RX-8… Then Sold It

本站添加: 2026-05-28

[00:00:00]All righty. So, we've gone down to Super Jeep Auto and picked up a few little things. Um, got a 2 and 1 half to two reducer for the turbo outlet. Already had the 2in pipe. So, it's a straight to two and a 2 in 45 that way to clear the radiator. And then down here, we have move up camera. There we go. Uh, two to 2 and 1/2 90. Got the random bluff valve that I picked off of eBay like two years ago. And then two and a half to three going into the intercooler.

[00:00:35]And obviously it does have a little bit of a weird angle on that, but uh yeah, that's fine. Won't cause any problems.

[00:00:43]It's just more aesthetics.

[00:00:46]So the other side's back on. I just have clamps up here.

[00:00:50]Um decided I'm just going to [ __ ] leave that cuz it like honestly that side's relatively good. Not a fan of the two 90s together, but whatever. And this side. Ideally, I would just cut that pipe off and just put a 90 here, but that works and it clears everything, so I'll leave it. Um, but otherwise, we're good to put the entry on. So, everything's back on. Everything's working. Um, I've obviously mounted the intercooler back after I've sealed it up and sprayed rust converter and everything. So, this is a rust converter with primer, so it won't rust again. and yeah, caused some problems. So, going to chuck the dry on now so I can get it back on the ground, put the bumper on, and do the intake for the servo cuz I got some extra things to do that. So, take that off. Put that 3 and 12 in or 3 in pipe to come out here and uh put the vacuum lines on it for the oil metering pump and [ __ ] cuz I've been driving around without it. just been premixing. And I don't know if the oil metering injectors actually work when there's no vacuum.

[00:01:55]I'm assuming they would because they'll be pulling vacuum from the chamber anyway and sucking it out through the oil injector, but not 100% sure. But just to be safe, I'll put them on there.

[00:02:07]All right. So, we got the under tray back on. All the pipes back in. Ready for the bumper. So, under tray fits on there beautifully. had to cut out a little section just here where the scoop is on the front bar to get the pipe around it. And same on this side. Now, that was already cut. So, yeah, I didn't bother replacing that with a silicon elbow. I was just like, yeah, whatever.

[00:02:30]I might as well buy another one. And it fits all right like that. So, I've just joined it all back up. Got the fog light here ready to go in. Um, just going to put the bar on and fingers crossed she fits and do the [ __ ] screws up and be good to drop it back on the ground.

[00:02:48]It's looking all right. Done. So, the bumper's back on. Intercoolers in. All the pipes are done.

[00:02:55]I've reconnected the fan that was on the front of the condenser. And I got a new wire coming up here. So, I'm going to chuck that into the fuse box like I did on mine. Tap it into probably relay one.

[00:03:06]It's probably the safest one. and then put a bigger fuse on the thermopan to cater for the extra load that we're going to be putting on there. Um or yeah, or I could put another relay underneath and just have a trigger off of there.

[00:03:23]And I mean, it's safer just to run it off of here. Pretty sure that's a 30 amp relay and those thermop fans don't draw that much, but it always is better to have it on a separate relay.

[00:03:41]Uh, so I just got to drill two holes or three holes and tap 1/8 MPT for oil metering pump, oil breather, and oil breather number two. So, this has two breathers, one down in the neck, one on the intake manifold, and an oil metering pump that comes off. The main one I need is a metering pump. I think I might just do the one hole for now. Um, actually two holes for now. And I got to go pick up an oil catch can, which I'll mount over here.

[00:04:14]Run those two oil breathers into that.

[00:04:17]And run one off of that into here. So, I need two holes in here. And then the two two oil breavers go to that catch can.

[00:04:25]One comes off the catch can and goes to here. And then that will be done. Um, yeah, that's it. That's ready to rumble.

[00:04:33]So, we can start giving some tuning. Um, and obviously that, but that that's easy.

[00:04:39]Um, I don't have a cover for here. It wasn't provided. So, that's what it is.

[00:04:46]And I need to order two inner guards for here because one of them flew off while he was driving home.

[00:04:53]All right. So, she's all together. Uh, got the battery in the boot. It's got the f like a normal bolt insulation tape around the original connection grounded to the strut tower up there and then grounded to the strut tower on the boot and then the four gauge cable coming up to here. Uh I got one on here. I got the other two pushed down there at the moment for the brevers for the the engine. It's only going to be a problem if the engine decides to burp and throw oil out one of the brevers and then yeah, we'll know about it. But I got to get a catch can that won't be for a few days. Um, yeah. So, I've turned this around because this was on the wrong way. Um, and it was getting close to touching the alternator pulley.

[00:05:33]Um, everything else is plugged in. So, we're going to give it a start and see what happens.

[00:05:51]Beautiful.

[00:06:01]Sounds better than mine.

[00:06:03][ __ ] Doesn't sound like there's any exhaust leaks anymore either, which is [ __ ] great.

[00:06:11]So, uh, yeah, I think we're good to start tuning.

[00:06:15]I'll take it for a drive and see what it's like.

[00:06:18]I got to secure the battery in the boot first actually cuz that's not secure at the moment sitting there and it is a very small battery.

[00:06:30]Uh so yeah, I need to find a way to mount that cuz it can't tip over cuz it's lead acid. And um yeah, put an isolator on this and put some heat shrink around it cuz whoever crooked that's a [ __ ] [ __ ] Um, yeah. So, I might have to go buy an isolator or a circuit breaker for this resettable circuit breaker.

[00:06:52]So, we're swapping the coilovers at the moment with the wife's one with the other silver one from Shane.

[00:07:00]So, I' already got one side in. Just adjusting the height cuz they're all [ __ ] wrong. Uh, this one was likeund uh no 96. The other one was 103 or something. And yeah, the height's all different and preloads all different.

[00:07:18]So, that one's all same height. Now, we just got to adjust the actual height cuz the car was way too [ __ ] low. Um, and yeah, got rain coming. So, trying to get it done before that [ __ ] comes.

[00:07:30]All right, so we got uh the silver one all done and driving again. Um, obviously we didn't miss we we missed the rain cut off. So, it's been pissing down for like 3 days now. And we got some flooding going on, so I didn't record any of that part of just getting it done and out of the garage and driving. So, we took it for a drive last night and finally managed to sort out the tune. So, we're going back to Red Line now on low boost. So, we're going to start tuning some 8 and 10 maybe 12 PSI on this and then uh make sure it's all good. take to the dyno, get get a power result, and then um got to replace this guard, get the respray done, and then put it up for sale and get rid of it. Um depending on how much I get for it, it might be a case of going or list it up as is. If I don't get what I want, I will take the Helltech out, put the OM ECU back in, flash it with Versa Tuner, tune the tune the math. Uh same power goal, 8 to 10 PSI, subs.

[00:08:29]Uh, and then sell it like that for a bit cheaper cuz you know, I'm not going to sell it under 10 grand with the Helltech. If it goes for less than 10, then it would be like, well, you can buy it for 8, but it's going to have the OEM ECU. You can buy it for 12. It'll have the Helltech.

[00:08:44]>> A few moments later.

[00:08:46]>> So, we finally figured out what the hell's going on with the radio. Didn't even think about it. Uh so the amplifier in the boot is a post and it takes a uh a lowle input and the head unit that was installed in this car outputs a high level input. So you're taking the highle amplified output which is supposed to drive the speakers and running it to an amplifier which is supposed to amplify the signal. So it's getting amplified twice which is creating all the noise and all the [ __ ] [ __ ] So, we're taking the wiring harness out. Cutting the connectors, all the front left, front right, rear left, rear right off. Got some RCA connectors. Going to run the preouts from the head unit. So, the amplifier outputs left and right. Uh, and run that through lowle outputs to the Bose amplifier and let the Bose amplifier take care of all the speakers.

[00:09:35]And then that should be sweet.

[00:09:38]Now, I've also jacked the car up to fix a uh steering sensor problem cuz when this car is cold, uh this power steering is absolutely terrible. Like, it is hard as a rock on one way, really easy on the other, and then shutters and goes all funky backwards and forwards. So, going to have a look at the tension torch torque sensor, torsion sensor, whatever.

[00:09:59]The plug that's on the rack over there.

[00:10:01]Um I've already cleaned the one that's up here. So, I've cleaned these two and just chuck some dialect dialectric grease on them. Um, I've got the ground hooked up directly to the battery now.

[00:10:12]It was hooked up to here, which didn't do [ __ ] So, um, yeah, just going to rule out a few things here now. And I've also put this battery in, um, which might not be permanent. I might need to do something else to secure it cuz I reckon it's going to sag over time. Um, but yeah, I need to I needed another battery up here, and I can't have a full battery, and I don't want to have to go spend $300 on another battery. So, I just screwed this here, use this cable that I already had there, it'll work.

[00:10:41]Um, and if when I sell it, the owner doesn't want to deal with that. They can just take this battery out, put in a bigger battery in the boot, and be fine.

[00:10:49]But I'm not keeping the car, so I don't really care. As long as it's reliable and working, this will be fine. Just I ran this in my car for months. Um, now I've also got the oil catch can lines coming up here cuz I was going to do an intake here and then put an air filter in there, but my air filter doesn't fit.

[00:11:05]It's too [ __ ] big. So, I need to find a 3-in air filter that'll fit in here comfortably. And fortunately, I don't have one anymore. So, um, yeah, I might just put the air filter back on here for now, and that will be dealt with in a later stage.

[00:11:21]But yeah, otherwise, got boost controller on. So, that's all hooked up um to top and bottom of the waist gate.

[00:11:31]I've heat protected heat wrapped the wiring loom for here because I knew this was going to be a problem eventually.

[00:11:37]And when I had this manifold, it definitely was a problem. It it chewed through this wiring harness quick. Um or this corrugator split tube just falls apart. So, bit of uh heat protection on there. I might put some metal zip ties around it or something as well just so it doesn't ever come off cuz I reckon the heat will get to it and it will start loosening up or whatever. Yeah, takes in obviously um all the wires cleaned up. So, we're almost done and we can go for a tune um and work out where we're going from there.

[00:12:12]Okay, so let's have a look at this map.

[00:12:14]So, this is the current V map that I'm driving around on and it is good for 10 PSI. So, I've tuned this entire area.

[00:12:22]Now, I'm not going to lie, um, Roto Division Performance, um, Hassan definitely did help me, uh, smooth out some injector problems. Um, so, under injectors, um, yeah, there was some weird [ __ ] going on there.

[00:12:38]Uh, even though it does, like in Versa Tuna, the red injectors do say that they are 329 or 360 C injectors, that they are definitely not. Um yeah, so Heltech flows 2 290 C.

[00:12:54]The second stage injectors are the blue injectors from the automatic um which is supposed to be 680cc or 629 or something like that. Uh and we've got them flowing yeah roughly about 470. Uh and stage three injectors are decapped yellow injectors which are just fire hydrant nozzles. They flow [ __ ] loads. So they're flowing, you know, 900 cc's at static 58 PSI. So this car does not have a rising rate regulator. It's got a OEM fuel system with a bigger pump. So it is constantly at 58 PSI or 60 PSI or 62 PSI. So it does have the speed control in for the fuel pump which kicks in at 3,000 RPM. Uh and yeah, obviously the fuel pressure changes from 48 to 50 to wait 58 to 62 PSI.

[00:13:47]under heavy acceleration essentially.

[00:13:51]Uh so yeah, really like the injector data isn't too far off. It just looks like it is. So yeah, running this like yeah, blue injectors definitely were a little bit off. Uh and yeah, the red one and the yellow ones were way off because yeah, here it was obviously decapped. So that's going to be different for everyone. every yellow injector that's been decapped is very similar, but they're very different at the same time.

[00:14:19]Now, obviously, you can see the injector staging. So, stage one is to 50%, stage two is to 40%, and stage three is to 40%. Now, on stage two, SSV is open all the time. So, this doesn't really matter. It's just more of a blending where it force it's being forced to use a secondary injector at this RPM and this manifold pressure.

[00:14:42]um it's just to smooth out the the big influx of the injectors turned on and dumping fuel in. So this is very important to get something in a flow percentage table for stage two and stage three. If you are using the SSV, make sure you time this and adjust the values depending on when the SSV would normally open and also the manifold pressure that it would normally open. Because if this isn't right and the SSV is not open and it's starting to flow, it's just going to run down the wall and as soon as that SSV opens, it's just going to dump a whole heap of fuel into the chambers or into the rotor housings. Uh, and pretty much you'll miss fire as soon as that happens. I've done that so many times.

[00:15:22]Now, the stage three ones, uh, we did try doing some flow percentage on this, um, but we ended up removing it because of that exact reason. um because the APV was changing too much. So under engine functions and inlet motor DC, this is what we have this set to. So minimum fuel load is 0 PSI, so atmospheric pressure, and 3500 RPM or max fuel 10 PSI and 5,000 RPM. So we can open anytime between 3500 and 5,000.

[00:15:56]Depending on boost level will depend on where it opens. 8 PSI. Let's just say this turbo doesn't even spool up until let's just say about 55 to 6,000 RPM.

[00:16:07]So, you can probably get maybe 5 PSI out of it by 5,000, but that's a struggle.

[00:16:13]So, yeah, you're you're pretty much open as soon as you need that stage three to flow. And it does flow quite a bit quite quickly. So yeah, we we generally try and time this. Like I haven't tried experimenting with opening this later.

[00:16:27]Now um now that the injectors are good because it just works and it it drives fine. You'll probably get a little bit more power out of it, a little bit more low end if you close if you had it closed longer or opened it later as long as it doesn't interfere with your stage three.

[00:16:42]Um yeah, and demo fans obviously it's all standard OM have turned off um the air pump and uh a few little rand like the barometric pressure I think is still on here. Um yeah, barometric pressure is still there. Everything is pretty much all standard. It's just the only thing that I had to do um was set it to 60 PSI fuel pressure and turbocharger on here and obviously MSP uh six port high power.

[00:17:12]So other than that it was pretty simple um ignition timing wise yeah standard map split angles just yeah all over the place. Um I'm still playing a little bit of uh zero demand but this seems to work pretty damn good.

[00:17:29]hasn't installed yet. So, happy with that.

[00:17:33]Uh, electrical is all the same, transmission's all the same, vehicle functions is all the same. I haven't got anything turned on that's out of the ordinary, and it just works. So, it's I'm really happy with how it works. And the V table looks really smooth. It looks really good. Uh, and there's no real lean or rich spots anymore. Um, I did have a couple of little ones when I was started tuning. Um, which you'll see in the next part of this video, uh, where I put the foot down, it went a little bit lean, but it didn't cause a hesitation or, uh, a DTC or an engine protection. Um, it just logged it as lean because it was a transient event.

[00:18:05]As soon as it went to boost target and started to correct and use the map, it's all perfect, spot on. It's so much easier to tune than mine with a rising rate regulator and flex fuel and all that kind of thing. So yeah, it's so much easier. Like we we got this tuned in a night. Um I did most of the tuning the day before, had it relatively spot on, but then tried to stand the boost up and had some weird issues with injector scaling and then roof performance, jumped in, spent an hour with me and and just cleaned up the injector data and and got the staging down. So yeah, reduced the staging quite considerably from 70% down to 40%.

[00:18:44]But uh yeah, other than that um that's really all I need to do is just correct a little bit of the uh the flow percentage and um and reduce the stage percentage down just so they weren't maxing out the stages so much. So the stage two and three were coming on very close together and then going up together and All righty. So, we uh we've got the other car all done. Everything is sweet.

[00:19:32]Um, there is a bit of a weird noise uh or feeling in the electronic power steering when it's cold. Can't quite work out what the hell it is. Like I've cleaned up all the wiring. I've done all the grounds. Uh, but apparently it's been there since Shane bought the car.

[00:19:47]Um, so the old owner bought it and it's had it the whole time. You just you start the car, you let it idle for 5 minutes, and you drive, and then the steering problem's gone. It's just it prefers to turn right, and when you turn left, it shutters. And I think it's just a [ __ ] rack. um or a torsion sensor or something. I'm not actually sure. Um so I've got another rack coming. Um so that'll be here in a couple days. Uh thankfully one of my old friends had one. So um yeah, we'll we'll chuck that in. Hopefully that'll fix it. Now everything else is good. Um so the car is pretty much good. Uh and I've also had a few um things delivered from Roto Division Performance. So Hassan uh who's been helping me for a few months with my car on and off. So obviously um you know some of the helltech stuff and the 30b stuff uh it's a little bit more complicated that I don't know and Hassan was were willing and and more than happy to help me figure some of the more advanced stuff out. And obviously it helped him as well because if we get my car good then he uses the knowledge that he learned from my car for the next person that he helps because not many people have turbo and RX8 with a hellj.

[00:20:59]So this is all a learning game for a lot of people and we spend a lot of hours working on the SSV and the VDI and getting them to open at different different levels and um yeah risking blowing the motor up just to try and get that timing correct and finding out if it's worth using it or not. And yeah, we pretty much come back to the conclusion on the floor port that it is worth it.

[00:21:20]Um, and you can see it in the logs. It just it's entirely different when the SSV is working verse when it's not. Uh, and it's just getting that balance right, getting the right formulas in place, you know, the right percentages and stuff like that all narrowed down so it's all at the same time. Um, but yeah, RDP sent me a few things. Um, so we got a bit of a a thank you card from the man himself. So, some sweet stickers. I love this sticker. This sticker is [ __ ] awesome.

[00:21:51]So, that's going on the car. And I've also got dropped it. A blue one.

[00:22:01]And a red one. And we've also got some hoodies here that I haven't even opened yet.

[00:22:13]So, I'll be repping his company a bit at the moment because, you know, he's a [ __ ] great guy. He answers all my questions and helps me out quite a bit. So, more than happy to to help him out if I can.

[00:22:27]So, got some hoodies, one for me, one for the wife.

[00:22:30]And uh they're actually [ __ ] awesome.

[00:22:32]So, I got a blue one and a red one. H.

[00:22:35]So, blue one.

[00:22:40]I'm not sure if I want the blue or the red, though.

[00:22:44]So, I kind of like the blue one better, but I think I got blue for the wife.

[00:22:50]So, yeah, it's going to be sweet cuz you can never have enough hoodies. Um, so yeah, we'll uh he's going to do a little bit more on this car soon. Um, because I got to take it to the dyno and take the other one to the dyno as well. I will get a power figure for both. Um, but obviously in this video you haven't seen much of what's changed in the black one and there's a fair bit of change that's happened.

[00:23:15]Uh, it is a very different car than what it was before. Um, it's definitely got a fair bit more power and torque than what it did on the old tune before the dyno.

[00:23:25]Uh, to the point where I need better tires. I'm going to need the suspension set up correctly because I am having trouble keeping this car under full power in a straight line. In corners, it's [ __ ] terrible under boost. Um, I just stay out of corners and don't boost it in corners because it'll just kick out and throw me in the 180.

[00:23:47]Uh, and I don't know how to drift. I've been wanting to go learn, but yeah, too many things happen. And yeah, anyway, later problem. a few moments later.

[00:23:58]>> All righty. So, yeah, it's now uh Thursday, so ended up having a guy contact me uh Monday night uh and pretty much go, "Yep, I want the car. Come and get it." Um, but I need a lift, so I have to go pick him up and then bring him back here. And then paid cash for the car and took it away. So, I didn't even get a chance to even really drive it after doing a little bit more tuning.

[00:24:19]Um, and uh, yeah, doing everything to it. It's just kind of like it just happened really quick. was was like 6:00 in the afternoon or 6:00 at night and he's like, "Yeah, I'm interested to come and get it. I can't get it till 9:00." I was like, "Yep, okay, that's cool. Well, it'll be here." And then he messaged me going, "Uh, I'll get an Uber. It's going to it's going to cost about 150 bucks."

[00:24:39]I was like, "Look, pay me 100 bucks.

[00:24:41]We'll come pick you up uh and bring it back here. Then you can drive away." So, ended up doing that and yeah, it's now gone. So, unfortunately, we have no idea how much power it made. Um, but driving it around and yeah, he's actually liking it.

[00:24:54]see what happens. So, we're going going to be doing a little bit of 3D work, 3D scan, STL work at the moment because I've got this out of a show car. Um, it's like a technically it's from a show car, but it's not the piece for the show car. So, it's another replicated piece or exactly the same OEM piece. And I've got to remake um a center console for the Commodore. Um, I got to 3D scan it and get it printed as soon as possible. So, he's given me the center console and the fascia for it, which I got to scan. I already scanned this and printed it out, but it didn't match entirely because this wasn't exactly matching the actual design of what the Zen console's like.

[00:25:39]So, he's given me both. Um, so we're going to scan that, um, chuck it into CAD, clean up all this crap on the back, and, uh, yeah, get it printed out in some ASA and hopefully get that done within the next couple of days. Probably have to print it out in three or four pieces and epoxy it together by the sounds of it. But they're going to get it painted and professionally um, sealed up anyway. So, it can be ASA, like ASA, you can sand, you can drill, you can tap it. It is pretty hard [ __ ] So, uh, once it's done, it'll just be a matter of just, you know, filler priming it, sanding it down. Um, yeah, and then painting it whatever color they want to do it. Just got to make sure it fits into there without [ __ ] that up. So, yeah, apparently someone put it in the oven and they completely warped it.

[00:26:26]So anyway, um I've also got to do um I just scanned this last night. So I had the intake off and I've scanned the entire engine bay. Um because I'm going to be making a airbox for here as well.

[00:26:38]Um this will be made out of PPA carbon fiber. So I'm going to print that in probably two or three pieces as well and have it snap together and bolt up to original blazes. I was going to make it out of aluminium. Uh but yeah, I don't really like dealing with aluminium if I can avoid it. It's a little bit of a pain in the ass and I reckon I can 3D print that and make it look heaps better. So yeah, I got the 3D scan for that already. Um I just need to chuck it into CAD. It was like 24 gig worth of data in that scan. So it's quite a big file. My 3D scanner captures a lot of [ __ ] Um like minuscule details, like even to the point where it's capturing the the dust on the on the paint. So I got to remove some of the polygons and get it exported into a smaller file so I can play with it. So, that'll be coming soon as well. Um, obviously I've got some big ass wide tires on the back now.

[00:27:29]Um, and I had to roll the guard. So, yeah. So, they're 9 and 1/2 in wide 265s and 235s on the front. So, yeah, they're the ones on the rear are semi slicks, which have some life left in them by the by the looks of things. Um, but yeah, not amazing. And these are the tires that I'm having trouble with. Um, I put them on there thinking that I'll be able to turn the boost up and actually get some traction. Turns out I cannot.

[00:28:00]So, I got the same on the other side.

[00:28:03]Unfortunately, when I did the guard rolling, uh, the roller did break. I borrowed it from someone, so I had to go buy another one. Uh, yeah. So, I haven't fixed up this little part just here where it rolls out because I can't be bothered doing that just yet. But there's the old guard rail there and the old engine that I got to rebuild. Um, so I got got enough to build two engines.

[00:28:22]So we'll be doing that as well. So heaps of [ __ ] happening.

[00:28:27]Just yeah, just getting the time and um yeah, unfortunately the Yeah, I've got a few little family problems to sort out with my my kids um and get them all sorted. So I'm trying to juggle business, family, cars, YouTube, and flowing effects from the last video that I posted. Um, so yeah, we've had some few problems with um I wouldn't say the the video per se, more of the people that didn't like what information we gave out. Obviously, there was some threats made which was Yeah, we kind of expected that kind of [ __ ] to happen. Um, didn't expect at this level, but you know, [ __ ] happens.

[00:29:10]Just you make things public and people don't like it and yeah, [ __ ] happens. Um, so obviously with what I do for work, uh, I work in cyber security, cyber crime, forensic IT, and manage services. So my job and what people pay me to do is find out who did what, how it happened, who's responsible, and pass on their details to the cyber crime unit. So I have a direct line to cyber crime um who has a direct line to the whole of the police force. So when a threat's made the way that it was um legally I'm obligated to report that kind of behavior. Um now I didn't because I was like look I don't feel this is credable. Um, and you know there's it was kind of like friends of friends knowing other friends and knowing other friends and it was just a big cluster of [ __ ] So I was like whatever. So I changed the thumbnail on the video just to keep the piece. Um and went yep that's fine. Like I didn't name drop him or name drop them at all. Um I yep fine. I'll change the change the thumbnail. Um so it's not so obvious but everyone that knows knows. So it is what it is. But with the situation happened yesterday. Um so Shane the original owner um obviously the threat was made to him saying that they would burn his shop down. Now obviously yesterday the shop caught fire and the whole place was destroyed. So we now have a situation where the forensic investigators are involved and want to know everything.

[00:30:53]We'll deal with that separately. Um, I'll go quiet on that now cuz yeah, I don't want any more problems to come out of that and that's done and dusted.

[00:31:02]Focus on the other [ __ ] Move on with that [ __ ] I got too many other things happening in my life to worry about that [ __ ] So, the car's gone anyway. Um, so obviously got what I wanted for it. Um, all sold sold with the Heltech. Uh, so right now I've got the money back to do some [ __ ] So I have an 8HP gearbox coming for my car. Um the 5-speed manual box that's in here on the uni clutch and the firewheel are going to go into the last car. Um the 13BW um is going to be rebuilt and semi-p peripheral ported uh with a G4900 turbo going on it. Uh so we've got an Artech manifold coming. We got the G4900 coming. Um I've got Rad Potentials. Uh he sent me his cross brace um for mounting the REW to the RX8. Um, and I've also got to finish making um, Ryan Rotary Performance's intake manifold um, for the engine that's currently in my car before I pull it out. So, that's got to happen first before the R goes in.

[00:32:05]Uh, and then peripheral port the intake on the R on the MSP engine, so the RX8 engine. Uh, and give that a try, put on the dyno, see how much power we can make, see if we can fine-tune the SSD around the peripheral ports and [ __ ] Uh, and then once that's all finished and sorted, um, take the engine out, RAW in, and we're good. So, yeah. So, we got a lot lot to do at the moment. Um, obviously I got to finish the CNC as well um before any of this [ __ ] happens cuz I need that CNC to do the work that I need on the intake manifold and the peripheral ports and the the cross brace to make them the bracket mounts up and all that kind of stuff and the aircom bracket. Um, so yeah, got to prioritize a few things and yeah, the family needs a little bit of support first before I go following the rest of that path. Um, but there's a lot happening. It's just right now the next couple of videos might be it's just stuff that I've done over the past couple of months that I haven't even put up. There's a lot of recording. I got probably like half a terabyte of [ __ ] that I've recorded doing that I haven't put up. So, I might just do little videos here and there for that while I focus on the bigger things like getting the CNC finished, getting the intake made. Um, rebuilding the REW, peripheral porting that. Um, 8HP swapping the my RX8 and then manual swapping the the wife's RX8. So, lots of [ __ ] to do. Just not enough time to do it all. Meanwhile, I got to run the business and keep the family happy and everything else. So, yeah, there might be a bit of gap between videos. moving forward. But like I said, I'll try and do the little ones that I haven't posted. Um, at least so there's something moving forward. Yeah, stay tuned for that. Um, and yeah, we'll see what happens in the future. Uh, anyway, uh, thanks for watching and we will see you in the next one in maybe a couple days, maybe a week or two. Um, but there will be more.
