Tim managing to replace a turbo with an hour still left on the clock is godlike, there’d be a pile of crumpled beer cans and some choice language being thrown at the car if I attempted that job
To be fair, it is in an easy to get to location. My first time ever swapping one it took me under 3 hours from start to finish. It’s no slouch job though.
no lie
Wrx's are easy to replace. Takes about an hour and 30 with a lift...give or take
I can change my turbo on my srt4 in an hour very easy
In the stock location it’s super easy
Mechanic: "that'll be 43.75 hours book time plus a new engine"
Tim: "hold my downpipe."
Hey probably held each others down pipes before and after
Lol
😂😂😂hold my downpipe
LMAO
This is why you should always bug your mechanic buddies to work on your car for you.
Y’all are all natural mechanics, and that’s pretty cool. But ur editor’s ability to condense 3 hours into 10 minutes is scary cool.
@@YaksenPushMongosome people grow up liking to mess with shit like this and are just naturally really good with shit like this compared to people who do it just for the money
@@YaksenPushMongoBut if you start from a younger age, you won't need to put as much effort as an average person learning in their later years
@@YaksenPushMongowhy u so pressed😂😂
@@YaksenPushMongo not really you are just butthurt 😂😂
@@YaksenPushMongoYou are (hopefully) aware that there are people who are mechanically inclined and people who aren't. The people who are mechanically inclined have a natural talent for MECHANICal things. No formal training, just a different way at deducing issues and figuring things out. So at the end of the day, there ARE people who are natural mechanics.
I'm actually with Tim on the downpipe. I think that taking off the downpipe cleared a lot of space and made the replacement a lot easier. I think if anything it saved him time not having to smash his knuckles up quite as much getting that turbo back on. ^^ Just my opinion.
Came here to say this. Aaron was dead wrong saying the DP was a waste of time
I've pulled a turbo from that gen Subaru, and you MUST take off the downpipe, as there are studs on the turbo for the downpipe.
Also the video mentioned listening for the blow off sound, which isn't a thing on a WRX. They use bypass valves instead. The ECUs are programed to expect air from the bypass. You can do some real harm slapping a blow off on a wrx.
@@mastrFlex yes sir. Can’t throw a blowoff valve in any turbo car without a tune and expect good things to come of it. But people just wanna hear the ps ps lol little do they know an external waste gate is really what makes a turbo sound mean af.
@@mastrFlexnot really true. Maybe newer Subarus. Venting fully to atmosphere (which is what gives the psshh noise) is never good for any turbo car.
However it won’t ruin the motor fast. Car will just run more rich and turbo will be working harder. Full recirc or even worse, blocking the bov will cause more issues, as it builds up excessive pressure at higher psi. Best option is a dual port bov like what gfb sells. Can set to part recirc, part atmospheric. So it only releases what’s needed into the atmosphere then recircs the rest so boost doesn’t have to build all the way up again - less wear on the turbo.
Huge improvement guys. I love that you're presenting issues that naturally occur on these cars, and showing that a car that's running doesn't mean it's good to go.
Yes exactly!!
you mean my neighbors truck that sounds like an industrial grinding operation, isn't running normally?
cawaazy.
@@supercooldude824 GOOD BOOST 👍
@@robert9595 the neighbour truck sounded like Panzer Dragoon.
Who wants an Impreza when they’re suppose to get a whole wrx?
Tim 2 seconds after popping the hood: “I think I need a new turbo”
Everyone: *damn we shoulda made this harder*
yup like a spun rod bearing lol ..
@@noxnyc23 it's what makes a Subaru a Subaru 😂
@@noxnyc23 fuked compression
like a blown headgasket lmao
@@lukesites2457 LOL it really does .. I own a sti that made it to 109k miles then boom spun rod bearing .. I still have it well maintained bfore and after but like everyone says it’s just a matter of time .. so I agree with your statement 🤣
5:38
Yes, the down-pipe DOES need to come off. It is impossible to pull the turbo without the down-pipe coming off after the intercooler is removed. This is due to the turbo studs on the hot side of the turbocharger connecting to the down-pipe and on the exhaust housing connecting to the up-pipe from the exhaust manifold.
Don’t worry, it’s pretty clear no one In the comments or at donut has ever worked on or seen a Subaru before 🤦🏻🤷🏼♂️ literally Lego
This
Hit the nail on the head.
@@TheOakley165 Agreed! Thankfully Tim didn't listen because pulling a turbo on a Subi is pretty easy once the DP comes off like it's supposed to.
@@TheOakley165 I'd be more than happy to teach the lads at Donut Media a thing or two about Subaru's. 😁 They're really not that difficult and don't have major issues when they're maintained properly. Maintenance is the KEY to any performance car, especially a horizontally opposed engine.
Tim’s a god, I’ve literally never heard of someone who could take a down pipe off and swap a turbo in 3 hours!! That incredible😉
2 hours actually. He had 1 hour remaining.
It's a 20 minute job max
Its really easy to take the turbo off these cars once you take off the intercooler.
You never seen flat rate techs work before….
+ hot engine
Everyone's faces like "damn, he's good" when he mentions it might need a new turbo. Lol. It's crazy that it only took him 2 hours(plus a 5 min. Test drive) to diagnose, pull, rebuild, and replace a turbo.
Yeah I need to know what shop he works at lmao I'm gonna be a customer
And the shops will say it’s a 12 hour job
@@cowanjones7232 well, because it is.
@@ritemasterful for someone doing it on their own, researching it by themselves and for the first couple times maybe. Not for a shope that's getting paid 100s in labor because they claim expertise lol
@@jqualin4927 hahahahah what about the shop? the tools? the hours to learn? another set of hands to help? are those free?
Taking the Downpipe off makes it 900% easier to reinstall I’ve rebuilt my ej205 and had the same issue it is definitely smarter to take the downpipe off not harder
Yeah when Aaron said it didn't need to come off I'm like hmm somebody hasn't worked on subarus much huh haha.
Good to know it wasn't just me, it's also 3 extra bolts to take it off plus the 5 that hold it to the turbo, so it's adding all of maybe 5 minutes to remove and install.
That said, I couldn't do this in this time
100%, unless gd's are that much different from g3's you can't take the turbo off without taking the downpipe off. I took my turbo off again 2 weeks ago and taking off 2 additional bolts saved hours aye
@@jwljwljwwwwl I mean you can still remove it without taking off the downpipe, but it’s an absolute bitch to do it that way lol. Totally worth the extra five minutes without question.
I agree much easier to bolt the down pipe up once the turbo is mounted
When he said he didn't need to take off the down pipe, he's not thinking normally cause of pressure..... nah that's what allowed Tim to get the turbo off in less than 30 min. Rather have more space to work. Instead of getting my ass handed to me by THAT ONE BOLT. We all know which one we're talking about 😆 🤣
People like TIM need to be in the industry. Hire him because time took to replace that was definitely under man hours. He brings in the money
Everyone’s face when he said “I might need a new turbo” 😂😂
They're faces made me believe they didn't know what he was talking about. Just goes to show if you know your shit, stick to it and see it through unto the end no matter the criticism you face.
@@tecklepheonix6344 they were just super impressed he figured it out so quickly lol
@@tecklepheonix6344 yea, they all knew what was wrong with the car before hand. They are the ones that damaged it purposefully.
@@tecklepheonix6344 🤣 yea bro, that's not what happened at all. The Donut crew knew exactly what was wrong with it and was surprised he figured it out as quick as he did.
bro MY face when he said that... 😳
This is a sick series and it's honestly extremely helpful for dudes who aren't mechanics but like to pretend (like myself). Subaru was clean as hell too. Great job, guys.
Dawg, if you tryna be a mechanic, donut is not going to teach you enough. If you’re trying to be a mechanic, I’d say get familiar with sensors, they over complicate everything IMO.
@@mr.pissedoff1903 they’re a huge help too though. With a code scanner you can read any code that the car is saying is the problem it’s experiencing, coolant and oil temp, oil pressure, your LAMBDA, fuel trims, fuel pressure, boost, etc.
For example he was looking at the temp gauge to see if head gaskets were the issue. Without a sensor for that, he wouldn’t know until it started to run poorly. At which point the engine is damaging itself big time.
Also I want to say that this isn’t a mechanics degree channel by any means, but to say you don’t learn is just silly. He learned the symptoms of a blown turbo at the very least. So yeah, get familiar with sensors, because that’s how you see if something is wrong with your car lmao
CZcams mechanics unite
@@constructapex2021 swear. we’ve done trans and engine swaps and everything in between using youtube😂 3 years ago we knew nothing about cars, now everyone brings them to our house to get worked on. youtube is king fr
@@driizzy2cold 100% facts man i cleaned throttle body for the first time last week and im gona attempt o2 ce sor next
Tim is such a lucky guy but for the skills and knowledge he just displayed he pretty much deserved the car.. hands down.. RESPECT.!!
I knew exactly what it was as soon as he said “a very big wrx problem” 😭
Literally!!
I thought it was gonna be rod bearings barfed into the crank case. 😂
I haven’t watched this yet but it’d be hilarious if it had blown head gaskets and a bad timing belt just like every other mid-00’s Subaru ever.
As soon as I heard it I thought head gasket. Haven't watched it yet.
As some with a mid-00's subie, I will be mad if he doesn't have to change a headgasket.
Typically it’s only the non turbo 2.5’s. They used a different head gasket on the turbo’d 2.5’s.
Spoiler: the turbos blown out.
It's the turbo. It's always the turbo. Even if it's the water pump or head gasket, it's still got a bad turbo.
Love the fact that I'm seeing Aaron there. I love it when he's in a series.
yes hes so good at what he does
Recently watched Hyperdrive and suprised that Aaron is on of the participant.
this tim dude is amazing. honestly think this should become a permemant series. good to see ordinary gear heads fixing typical issues.
well done guys
These videos are awesome, love the antics y'all get into while they figure it out. Learning a lot along the way!
This is honeslty one of the best series. It’s so wholesome and super informative. I learn more watching stuff like this than I do watching a video on how to fix things
TLDR of this series
Have a mechanic that specializes in the listed vehicle
Have them diagnose symptoms
Make jokes
Give away car
@@CaliKrome happy ramadhan 2022 Kyle. 🙏
I honestly love this series! I hope you guys do a non mechanically inclined person next and show how to start to learn
Edit: maybe do one for a newbie on how to maintain, oil change, battery, spark plugs other normal tune up items.
Yes this exactly! Would love someone as incompetent as me when it comes to working on cars :D
Please be me!!!
If y’all chose me as the non mechanically inclined, how about a part where I choose certain mechanics to fix it up for me 🤣
Maybe they've chosen tonnes and they all didn't make it on the video because they all failed
i think if you pay for the flight over from austria my gf would have alot of fun as the test subject there. i explained here and there a bit but she is not very knowledgeable about cars.
The composition, editing and general graphical design of Donut's videos are just incredible! Awesome work guys
So sweet to watch. So happy for him to get his Rex, big round of applause heard from all the way in Australia. Would love to see what the future holds for this boosted beast.
I didn't think I could love a series more than Hi/Low, I was wrong. Bravo guys ! Bravo !
It was a good episode, but I did not enjoy this guy working on me

Pls dont end this series.
Its amazing❤❤
Cost money ma dude
cleanest wrx ive ever seen dont stop making videos donut you're my favourite channel
you havent seen many wrxs have you?
You haven’t seen many have you lol, it’s still pretty nice tho
@@mcn1583 I have seen wrxs I just think this one looks the best out of all of them because it's my style
You must not have seen many WRX in your day then lmao
@@madkunt9094 its stock🤣
dude this was such a good video glad to see a wrx in there. love those cars. huge props to tim for pulling this off
This series is awesome! And you honestly learn all sorts of stuff!
I love how Bart, even being out of Donut since like 3 years ago, he's still being remembered once in a while XD
Science garage and the gambler 500 episodes were the best back then!
@@goldsneaks3174 this is what got me into Donut! And I learned a lot from Bart, we miss him :(
what ever happened to him?
Legend has it he’s still IN the science garage
Complete Chad, what a great guy, aint all the OG donut fans miss him
this is a pretty clean wrx too !! super tastefully modified
💯
Missing a wing but yeah
@@MartyPVideos the wrx is not missing a sti wing homie, all personal taste but come on 🤣
@@MartyPVideos I prefer wingless
@@shaloon64 wingless looks a bit bare in my opinion but then again I don't have a WRX 😂
im loving this series, helps us out as car guys and is fun to watch, please keep it uP!
One thing I really appreciate with these videos, is they dont do latent failures. When they sabotage something, they make sure it doesn't work at all.
This is the best donut series so far
Damn the guests are getting more and more professional🤣
This guy was definitely an experienced professional mechanic
Yes, do more of this. I really enjoyed the diagonising, the diagrams. Very nice
WE NEED MORE VIDEOS LIKE THIS SO MUCH VALUABLE INFORMATION ‼️‼️‼️
Day 330 of asking Donut to bring old B2B back
Cool
Nah man science garage
You guys have been POPING OFFFFF!!!! With your videos recently keep it up 🙌🏽🙌🏽
The curse of finding a new series on Donut and binge watching them all, look forward to more of these!
this video actually helped me allot. here i was thinking maybe something was wrong with my turbo in my 15 wrx but the information in this video was enough to put my paranoia at ease
If he can fix it in 3 hours it should be considered a world record
he kinda did it in 2
I mean, it’s not that hard to work on cars when you have the tools and mechanically inclined/experienced
It’s hard to modify and rebuild parts, replacing stuff is usually plug and play.
Dreaming to install a k20 in a crx or LS swap a Miata and all those crazy builds requires real skill to fabricate mounts and make mods to the chassis to take the mounts and hold the power train properly
That would be considered flat rate
I would give an arm and a leg to be in one of these, especially for that car. Love the progression of problems on these episodes, from just fuel pump relays all to way to a turbo.
I would too definitely
wouldnt be much good at driving it without an arm and a leg though lol
@@DeathEgg666 He didn't specify whose arm and leg would be given
@@tappajaav ah fair point, you win!
I love this series. It would be super cool to do some more challenging ones for more experienced mechanics and some simpler ones for newbies
One thing I like about your videos is that you explain everything that goes on. Not only just show whatever is happening
Should’ve made him replace the head gasket
That'd certainly have been an impressive feat😂
rear main.
@@aStranger_ I'd rather do a rear main than a headgasket
Just one?
Or both of them?
NEXT HIGH-LOW SHOULD BE WITH WRX'S!!!!!!
This is their best mechanic they’ve had so far. I think I’d also like to see one of these with someone who knows nothing about cars who has to fix one using pre-recorded tutorial videos made by various Donut members.
I really enjoy this series. The series really gives an insight to common people.
This series is so awesome. Hope the budget for this kind of production continues 🙏
Him managing to replace the turbo in under 2 hours as well as dropping the downpipe. Super impressive!
This is the most original idea I've seen in a long time. Nicely done guys!!!
Over the years I’ve owned 2 wrx’s this videos so helpful, love you donut 🔥🔥
Shoutout to the guy thinking of priming it before starting the car!
I love this series it's so fun to watch. He deserves that car it's pretty amazing how he was able to figure out what the problem was and fix it in less than 3hrs
Huge fan guys love your content!! Got an 02 Wrx myself!!!! Watch everything that you put out
Thank you to the crew ....i love you
I love how nolan gave james almost a second heart attack at 7:24
This new series is 🔥
So glad you guys put this video out. Im been chasing my tail with overheating and coolant issue. Then I watched this video. I was like "duh, wrx + turbo = FML". So thanks guys
This is probably one of the coolest video styles I’ve seen to date. Good job Doughnut.🔥
I love this series, learning to fix cars and seeing what experience one may have
Damn, I really love this series. Its really cool to see + you learn a lot along the way. I also love that it’s just the guys having fun, you can really see that.
Keep up the good work guys :)
Well done Tim, congrats !!!!
i think this is my favorite series. love these videos

I love this series, please keep this going ❤️
Jesus the amount of happiness I get whenever I see donut continuing this series is crazy😭
I love cars but I’ve always had trouble understanding them, these videos are not only super fun to watch but I’m also learning a LOT from them
My daughter and I love watching this if you can fix it is yours series together 🥰great job to everyone involved👍👍 we are currently redoing our garage then we will get back to repairs ourselves 🥰🥰😎😎
My favorite series you guys do. Could be a National TV show . Please do these more. YOUR FANS LOVE THESE SO MUCH!
I've really been enjoying these and would love an extended cut in the future. This would be great background while cleaning the garage!
Guys great media man this is excellent!
@3:18 Someone probably already mentioned it but Subaru doesn’t use blowoff valves, they use bypass valves. The valve recirculates excess pressure rather than circulating to atmosphere.
Lol are the head gaskets still good?
love this segment. I'm not too technical with cars, but someone who works on network infrastructure. I love how I can relate with the troubleshooting technique. as a network guy, we start at layer 1 and work our way to uppper layers of the OSI model. we kind of "walk the network" to find where the bits/frame/packet drops and work from there. yet another great show and cant wait for the next one!
You did it !!!! This series is amazing !!!
By far my new favorite car series on YT 🙌
This is the best series you guys could come up with. From someone with intermediate car knowledge, I love it!
Even got my girl into it 😂
Love the series! I think we all agree that we have learnd tons of things. Next do an e46
I absolutely love this series
I love you guys I enjoy every moment that you guys upload
As an owner of a 2006 wrx, there is 0 chance y’all really just crammed 5 guys in there with any sort of comfort🤣
Yup, when I first got mine I was surprised how small and cramped the car actually is
For real haha i was thinking the same. I have a lil 2010 impreza its pretty much a 2 seater haha
Imagine the issue was the head gasket and he had to do a full engine rebuild lmao
Usually don't need to do a rebuild for a head gasket unless you drive it alot with it blown. Usually have to resurface the head, replace the gasket, oil change and coolant flush and you're back in action.
1 person can't do that in 3 hour lol
2:48 that´s the most accurate spooling sound that I have heard in a while
This channel is how I'm learning about the ins and outs of automotive mechanics. I'm super excited 😄 Always wanted to learn but never had someone to teach me. Thanks Donut. 🍩
cant wait for tim to join the donut team after this performance
I have never been so jealous in my life.

An amazing series from an amazing team, keep it up boys. Love it
Problem: Turbo wont make boost.
Solution: Get a new turbo.
Not the most complicated episode ever :)
Well he only has 3 hours, so they can't really do anything requiring taking the engine apart or out, that'd eat up all the time before you even had a chance to do anything
