I was scrolling through the front page and the thumbnail "first drive in the drift truck" came up. Got all hyped up and then realized it was when you were towing it around the shop 6 months ago.

@@zippyoya Yeet
No
Turn the turbo around and rise the oil return bung up around an inch so the sump oil doesn't block the return pipe, extending the life of the turbo :)
Life always surprises me, whilst on my way to buy a new double bolt for my bike, Gingium uploaded. Started watching him and he just taught me how to screw the double bolt in! Saved me a headache and tons of research, thanks bro!
That bung is probably going to have to be moved higher up
The bung on my Flyin Miata kit is a very similar location and has been for years. Oil will still drain out of the turbo. Why do you think it needs to be moved up?
Gingium it needs to be above the level where oil will sit in the pan otherwise it will not drain properly and cause the turbo to smoke. Especially with these cheap turbos.
@@destin6041 you're correct, can cause the turbo to have too much oil pressure I think? Probably not good for the turbo either
looked in the comments for this exact comment.
yeah agreed because other wise the oil could possibly sit inside the drain line and thats no good.
That oil drain is to low needs to be higher on the pan so oil doesn’t sit in the line just better for the turbo just trying to be helpful
And I think so too the oil can stay in the line
Will not drain properly and the car will most likely smoke
@@dimo956 ….oil shouldn't be staying in the return line. The main purpose is to dump back into the oil pan as fast as possible. That's how you burn up the seal on the turbo.
DUDDEEEE. The background music makes the video 10x times better lol. Nice and clean work as always.
I love turbo hondas
😐
@HACKerED turbo lawnmowers leaves your v8 truck in the dust :p
@@KyrastraGaming That "turbo lawnmower" will make 1,000 pones.
The best platform and chassis bro,that's why people turbo honda civics,they lightweight and reliable,and make make a lot of power,stupid power for a 4 cyl !!!
Nice mini choochoo spooly boi install
Muscle Vs Tuner Bobby you need to make more vids
Should have went a little higher on oil return on fan
tony crawford should be or best spot is the upper right
A lot more higher.
@@SIRICKO whats up buddy havent saw u post on Facebook dude its crawford u shared my del sol
tony crawford oh shit what’s up my man. I’m back in Facebook as Ricko SI I’m back posting
@@SIRICKO cant find you get at me
Best part is putting the beer in the fridge. Not an alcoholic but drinking (not alot that you cant function) while working on your car with your friends is something i look forward to all the time. Good times and great memories with closed homies
oil drain is too damn low on the oil pan
A gingium vid! My whole day just got better.
That white hoodie matches the white car! Very nice!
Nice one!!! The intercooler work looked AMAZING!
Love the channel and everything about and I’m hyped for what’s coming up🙃
Thank you :)
@@_Gingium_ I see you wearing that Just Pasha CZcams hoodie at the start of the video bro. 👀
Yes! I've been waiting so long, for someone to do it.
Really enjoyed this!
Thanks for recording this and passing on your know-how
*Nothing Beats Honda Turbo Videos 😁🤟🏽*
Great job you guys!
I love to see you happy gingium
Watching this motivates me, can't wait to install a turbo kit on my FRS someday !
Can't you change the direction the turbo is facing to other side like normal boosted civics
It's not even meant to be mounted like that, it was made to be facing the opposite direction. That is why they had to mess with the boost piping. It normally goes out in front of the driver side tire
Also, buy a real kit or just make yourself a "kit"
thats what I was thinking it should mount to the manifold the other way but wasn't sure what that would do to the intercooler piping, maybe that is why it needed to be modified.
It's a kit to keep ac compressor
I hope i’m not the only one remember that old intro with the forza builds
With the spinning BBS_like wheel and stuff
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwhat is going on everybody my name is Gingium and today we are going to ........
For the love of GOD and EVERYTHING HOLY- BOLT YOUR VISE TO THE WORK BENCH ALREADY.
and stop crawling under cars without a jackstand or something more solid than the human body to hold it up if the jack fails
Dude you have to turn the turbo 180 degrees on the manifold.
Yes! Badass video gum gum.
This is literally the exact same kit I put in my first gen tC. Its surprisingly a good kit for what your paying for.
The only thing though. Mine faces the opposite way.
Very nice video cool Lil Projekt
Ah, what a nice way to start finishing off my day. Thanks Gingium!
Edit: Any updates on the Drift Truck?
The reason why they face the turbo away from the right is because you can actually fit the AC and power steering pump, in some engines there's absolutely no space.
I went to college with gingium pretty cool guy.
this is just what u needed
Awesome you taught me a lot
That Miata Clean asf 🔥
Liked, Commented, Subscribed, Shared and Patreoned.
Hell yeah bud! tell john i said what's up!!
Sweet hope to see test drive after that dyno gets done
That engine bay clean 🧼
Hi love ur videos :)
Soom as he started bro he me laughin " he took his ecu i cnt work on it."
Also him " its a civic easy to roll " lol
I'm here for the update log
dope video
Glad I looked thru the comments first before I said something about the location of the oil drain lol
Aaaaahhhhhhh I wish my E30 was boosted :(
You will soon 👽🤘
Ahhhh I wish I had an E30 😂😂
@banaanpower332 Moneyyyyy😂😂
@@memecentral3753 That's it 😂😂😂😂
@banaanpower332 I want something that can take boost, but idrk where you're from so pricing would be different
You did what I couldn't 10 years ago
I expect to see some sick skids next video
those corner lights on the EG is clean af
So cool man. You make it look easy!!!!!!!
I would love to do this someday to a car!!!!
Also helped me understand all the parts of a turbo which is cool I learned alot!!! Thanks!
Turbo all things!!! Also you live in an area with great craft beers throw out those coronas and make your way to Half Acre or Pipeworks
All that space is because you have an AC saver kit. They're a God send for the people who hate the heat lol
The turbo is on the wrong side the cold side is to close to the transmission the downpipe wont fit because its on the wrong side and the intercooler piping will get in the way of the downpipe too
yeah i figure someone was going to say this rofl... no idea what came across their mind thinking it looked right.. :s
Don't know what they where thinking or if the green was on point before doing 😂😂👌
Hey Gingium, I don't want to kick the dead horse but the drain is low. Highest as possible is the best since it helps the oil drain back into the pan from gravity. Keep up the good work and I love the fact you are boosting a B-series!
Wikto it’s low but it’s not way too low, the oil sits a quite a bit lower than that especially when running
@@jdm_john8240 Yeah but it puts some back pressure on the oil drain, blew out the seals on my eBay turbo because I had my drain too low Lmao
If you have an issue with the turbo having clearance then you can grind off a little from the block (right under the engine code stamp) and a little off from the casting to the right of it
With that turbo kit you can run AC and power steering that's why there's so much space on the right lol
Also definitely shouldn't use those cheap gaskets that they include. Either stainless or Copper gasket sealant
This went so much cleaner than Robbie Ferriera’s did 😂😂
John looks like Paul Pfeiffer from the TV Show "The Wonder Years"...
People usually cut the crash bar to put the intercooler higher, because unless it's really that small it will scrape on things.
Also isn't that oil drain kinda low on the oil pan ?
It is pretty small. It fits under the stock bumper so I'm sure it'll be fine!
And I didn't think so, but everyone is saying it is.
@@_Gingium_ Yep, hope both of those will be fine :)
Can u please turn that turbo around please it will fit so much better
it's not your car ,so you gotta live with your ocd
Nice hoodie
Ging is the best supporter of other you tubers always wearing someone else’s gear
Crank start first , Bravo
I love the super bright colors of ebay turbo kits.
at 2:23 we can see the almighty blinker fluid reservoir
Dammit CZcams why have you stopped notifying me about Gingium videos?
The reason the turbo is on that side is because he baught the AC friendly one or it would be on the other side I just don't get one thing no low compression pistons man your brave it will blow up in no time
I like John's Dwight glasses
I love people who just go for it and build whatever using whatever. I’m not a name brand snob albeit u do get what u pay for in some occasions. Realistically I would assume the weak spot in this kit is the turbo compressor shaft. But for 600 u can’t go wrong
Miata looks so cute besides to the civic
The kitt looks to be a/c compatibel 💯
Notification just in time for my morning poop. Welcome to my throne room.
Crescent wrench worrior. I dig it.
That boy who owns the civic looks like this smash bro player called ppmd
Love Honda hatches. You need to get an Ek or eg hatch. That paired with the miata is a badass duo
It would be a great daily! But I kinda want something newer and faster...
@@_Gingium_ I hear ya on that bro. Can't wait to see what it is when the time comes
Gingium 2.0T accords scoot and are comfortable
Do you follow boostedboiz?
Its fast as fuck haha
Or a boosted wagon;)
Are we going to see more of your " Pickup Truck " just wondering been awhile :)
New vid. Yeeeeeeeeees
Man I wish I had friends like these here in Tampa.. lol Need a friend with a car shop! I'm buying a civic on the 13th. 98 or 96 civic ex, definitely want to do a motor swap... maybe AWD setup in the future.
If I had friends that would drink beer with me and work on cars I wouldn’t be in half of the bs I am for today haha .
I skipped class for this
Probably not a good idea but HECK YE!
Or U could've went but watched it in class
I’m just watching it in class so I think it’s fine
Rip GPA
Zach Dyck I think it’s fine
I really hate to be that guy, but having the oil return higher would of been more ideal. I had smoke issues with one of my oils Honda’s from it being to low.
A legit way of tightening
I think the turbo oil drain is to low. Probably need to come up a lil bit
that oil he drained out was pitch black lmao
i like this do lots of this
Please start putting grease on bolts and nuts! You will be surprised at house much easier it is to take stuff back apart for secondary and tertiary mods/upgrades
John looks similar to Fogell/Mclovin from Superbad
@10:30 just turn it the other way? thats how mine is, but i think your manifold is the ac compatible one. and upon further inspection, it seems it is cause the way the downpipe is made.
Could u not of turned the turbo the other way so it had the space or would that be bad ??
No it's not bad, I would have had the turbo face the other direction so it would clear
I got a B18C1 set up that could use a little 6758 .80 a/r ;)
Awesome
“God Bless America”
Pretty sure that oil drain is too low. It should be almost at the highest point on the pan, you don't want oil getting backed up in it.
honda civic just needs a dino test now :)
nice!
also the manifold is designed like that so you can retain ac and power steering if u so desire. atleast thats how it looks
two genuine bros working on a civic nuthin better
If those were the eBay studs for the manifold, take them out asap and replace with some from a parts store. They're super soft and will break in no time....
(Edit- saw you guys got other ones)
