I Turbocharged My Daily Driver And Took It To The Dyno

- The previous videos I built a custom turbo kit using a garret GT2560R turbo for my daily driver: a 2008 Honda Fit. In this video we take the car to the dyno to see how much power it'll make! Plus, we test to see how much faster it is!

Thanks for trusting us! Let us know if you need help in the future with other projects. Also thank you for making this a smooth day!
I'm thinking about slapping a turbo on the fit(been on the fence if I should or not) if so Im taking it to you guys. Im out in Savannah.
This just shows having less HP can be more fun than having more HP, my Mustang is basically stock power wise but almost all of the suspension has been swapped out and to me it feels perfect
i say the same, alot of horsepower only has benefits in motorsport... the only thing you do on the street is bragging rights which doesnt do anything for you. Ive always been into high power cars but come to realise more and more... why? i have more fun driving my 60s shitbox fast than anything else in the end.
@@eriksimca9409 I'm young and have gotten the chance to drive my dads friends highly tuned Subaru along with a gift from my dad to drive a Demon and a GTR Godzilla at a abandoned airfield, though there's something about my friends dad's little Seat Ibiza with a small turbo that just makes me giggle each time I drive it.
@@stellarose03with "gtr godzilla" you surely meant the r32 which is the only godzilla gtr
@@Blue__244 it was an R35 GTR, though it was just named Godzill. It was heavily tuned to about 650-750hp I think, so it was still a blast to drive!
Stop kidding yourself? You definitely have more fun if you mustang made a extra 100hp overnight and you are lying if you don’t agree. Sure you can always have fun but you don’t necessarily know what your missing if you’ve never had a huge jump in power on a car you have owned for a long time.
Driven like a true honda boy, smashing the limiter for a good 2-3 seconds at 1st gear 😂
You gotta spin yourself up to second gear speed 😂
Gotta let the VTEC slip the wheels into 2nd for optimal pull 😂😂
It'd be cool to see another turbo economy car
Yaris would be dope
@@_Gingium_DUDE YES
@@_Gingium_ ooh didnt MCM do a turbo yaris? thatd be a fun one
@_Gingium_ could do some crazy stuff to a fiesta ST. With your crazy fab skills, you could make an awd one 👀
@@_Gingium_Fiesta ST maybe? They are turbo from the factory so all the stuff is already there, you would "just" upgrade the existing setup👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
Bro wake up, gingium posted.
My exact feeling the moment I got that notification
The feeling I had when I saw it on my recommendation page.
Bro? 🤨
Turbo LS400 would be pretty cool.
Nice convertible Honda element 1:50 😅👌
I didn't notice that lmao
Definitely could fit a fridge in that thing!
I spotted that immediately
That car definitely needs a track day! I'm sure that thing would be loads of fun!! Also, a turbo mini truck would be top tier!
Not gonna lie, this series was one of the first things I've seen of your channel and it was very fun
This is exactly what I’ll be doing to my ge8 Fit. If you all didn’t know “unequal fabrication” out of South Carolina makes turbo kits for our cars now. Time to get some boost!
I followed this FIT saga here in Brazil, because I've had a 2008 Honda Fit 1.5 16V Vtec for less than two years and I love the car. Unfortunately, I don't have the knowledge or financial means to do all this with mine, which by the way is very tired, but it was really cool to know its potential and everything it would need.
Congratulations on your videos and content. I will continue to follow the channel with great joy.
Im from just outside of the chicagoland area and remember finding your videos after buying my miata around 5 years ago. I bought a silver 08 honda fit identical to this one about 2 years back and when you bought this you instantly became one of my favorite youtubers. Keep up the awesome work man love the videos!
My all-time favorite content from you:
1. Shop builds
2. Drift truck/1G builds
Anything like those and I'm in. 👍🏾
take me back to the RX7 build ;-;
@aegistechreviews7410 i wasn't around for those. I was in a shop build rabbit hole, which is how I find him. Although I had seen the wagon once or twice prior.
Man this thing is so rad now!!
Yessir! So much fun to drive!
I'd like to see a turbo e36. But the thought of the sound of a boosted 1uz sounds amazing!
This has been really cool. I'd honestly like to see more economy car based turbo builds.
This channel is #1 he needs millions of subs
I was hoping for 220 ish but on 6 pounds this will be a perfect reliable daily
i love how happy he looks, he looks like he's genuinely having so much fun, keep going Gingium!!
A light weight hatchback with some turbo spunk just makes day to day life so much more enjoyable. Still got room for friends and carrying cargo. But the noises that make an enthusiast laugh everyday. Well my FIst has done this for me at least. Thank you for years of enjoyable content.
Have the same car and love it, was hoping he could make 200 WHP and equal torque like a stock ST but maybe his car is lighter? This is a fun series and hope to see the car evolve further.
@@Blas4ublasphemy The only place to go next is to swap the motor for a K series and ditch the L15. The reason is the bore of the motor the K series has way bigger output and of course displacement and the L15 is more economic and has a small displacement and bore output so it's limited by default.
more boost and bigger injectors won't help?@@b4ssfunk3d
Turbo an older 2.3L Ranger (or a 4.0L). The Rangers had a 5R55E (or M if you can find one) transmission that was rated for 550 lb-ft torque. The 4.0L only produced 238 lb-ft, so you have some room to spare.
Editing looks so premium! I appreciate the work you put into it
That is awesome. Perfect for the streets and spirited cruises
This video is like watching a beginner motorcycle rider go from a 300cc sportbike to a 400cc sportbike hha
i really like the intro with the drone and everything going backwards it looked really good
TURBO LS400 🔥
Loved this series. Great exhaust sounds too.
i love this series, im also considering getting a honda fit soon because of you
There’s been a little extra spice added in your production and editing recently and I’m loving it
Firstof all, I Iove your Videos! Since the Day I saw your Drag Racing with your Volvo Sleeper I fell in Love with your Creativity of your Builds. Not to mention how well build every Car is 💯
I´m curios, have you ever seen or even drove a modified Honda FR-V, I found Turbo Kits for it but have found near to nothing about.
I found the Model per Accident and immediately thought, this could be a awesome Project Car with so much potential.
Anyway love your Channel and seeing you so excited and happy gives me a smile evertime ☺
Those are some pretty great turbo noises!
Proof you don't need a bazillion HP to just have fun 👍
ffs.. now I've got Cyndi Lauper in my head.. 🎵Oh, Caleb, just wants to have fun... oh Caleb, just wants to have fu-uhn... 🎵.
Damn even AI is trying to fit in with the “don’t need hp to have fun” crowd 😂
Beep bop boop
Just lost my fit last week on Friday in a rain storm, after 6 years of driving it I finally hydroplaned straight into the median barrier and totaled it.. seeing this still brings me joy, I always had plans of turboing it just never got all of the funds together, love the vids man, especially the fit ones.
Thats sweet man ! Great job!
I love this series as well! And I would love to see a twin turbo rear mount setup on SOMETHING you build, I don't care what it is, but some twin rear mount turbos would be awesome
Yessss turbo e36 drift project needs to happen!!!!
Would be very original content nobody does e36s these days…..
Turbo e36 woulld be sick. I have one kitted out fpr XB autocross and its a blast
I have an e30 i would love to add an e36 but i should finish the e30 first lol
Thats really dope and incredibly inspiring 💯💯 need a ripper like this
I think it was a super cool touch having all your friends doing a ridealong getting their reaction, I was smiling the whole time!
E36 sounds sick, I´m on my 3rd after 2 miatas. great cars, fun to build them
Car sounds so amazing!!
Great video! Turbo super high mile ls400 would be really enjoyable too!
Gingium posted :0 GOBLESS
Golf VR6 , turbo them... holy moly thats best sounds ever ❤
It will be a happy day when my Fit sounds the same, awesome work man.
Great daily setup 👌
You guys live in a lovely part of America, cool project 👌🏼.
Man that sounds so good
I can't imagine an GD with that much power lol, this is an awesome daily build. The turbo and L15 sound incredible
Turbo LS400 would be gnarly
Low HP and light cars are the funnest to drive. My 9-3 turbo is stock, but makes all the right noises and handles great.
another fit! lol
love your videos :)
I absolutely love how well you built this car, so that it is an enjoyable daily that still sounds amazing when you want it to. Hopefully the good sounds don't make you drive this car hard as a daily lol.
In Poland we have a few e36/e46 builds with 1.6 m43 engine with 1.8t audi/vag intake. It makes simillar power to 330i
Also IS200 1gfe with equal lenght manifold would be nice, sounds like 2f2f skyline r34
watching you work on the honda fit is making me want to buy one.
This makes me even more excited to get my GT2554R on my Fit, turbo noises are the best.
When we talked about your turbo, I knew that this GT2860 would be slightly oversized for this engine but I completely understand why you used it to keep the rods in the block. From what I've seen the 2554 is much more responsive, but I am a little worried about not making any windows in my block (although I do have a spare engine).
Also super cool to see my sticker on your car!
This is actually a 2560! So in between the 2554 and 2860. Definitely a bit laggy but super responsive compared to some other turbo engines I’ve driven lol. Good luck on yours! Electronic boost control would be very helpful on these.
@@_Gingium_ That's right, I forgot you had said 2560.
I'm actually really considering doing a boost controller/boost gauge combo like the AEM unit to be able to ramp the boost in appropriately and make the tune safer. I'd also like to do a flex fuel setup, but I haven't dug too deep into what that would take with the Flashpro yet.
What a sick car!
That's awesome man great video keep having fun 😊😅😂
love to see your take on a e36 turbo :)
Looks fun!
I had a fit, now I have a 10th gen civic SI….i miss my fit!…the engine was bullet proof!
I love the Honda fits man they're awesome especially this one it sounds like a rattlesnake on deceleration
Who else thinks this sounds like an evo ?? Well done Gingium, really loved the Jazz turbo videos 😍
Man the L15 is great sounding motor… I daily a wrx and want to start daily driving a Fit😂
1:48 and I thought tile puzzle games didn't exist in the real world😅
I remember playing those games on my moms old blackberry while at the doctors when I was super young. I miss 2007-2011.
Love the series, love the reactions and the stututu noises. The length and content is superb vith the quality ✨✨ beamer vids would be awesome. Do a low power drift car with air suspension 😁 would be awesome. I want to save enough money to turbo mine Volvo 740 ❤️
Gingium is proof any car can be fun.
James is awesome, been there a few times!
I want to see a turboed enormous SUV like an Escalade or V10 Excursion.
I manual swapped a Lincoln Navigator and always had plans to supercharge it, but I sold it when I moved. It was enormous fun at drift events!
it sounds so good
E36 NEXT PLEASE
love the stuff keep it up brother
The second you said LS400 I was hooked. I would love to see you build a street/VIP/Monster sleeper of a Turbo UZ (Again I guess) but with the Lexus flair. Plus UZ’s just sound so good and its not a common build
Sick af 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Finally the video I've been waiting for lol
I love that your not babying it an giving it some stink. Your hard works paid off! Are you going to change out the ecu at all and give it some more fuel.... cage and go racing....
nice powerband!
Would love to see you turbo an IS250. Nobody touches the 4GR-FSE but it has potential! They're semi-forged from factory and are high compression too. Easily get 350hp!
They have a longer stroke than the 2gr so nobody takes them seriously
This cahnnel is turning slowly to a honda channel ❤ love it hopefully you get the boostedboiz for the beat build? 😊
I built myself a supercharged daily driver. I like the turbo fit. 👍
A turbo minitruck or something like an old Vitara/RAV4 etc would be so sick!
If it blows up id reccomend swapping in a stock k20a3, it makes the exact power youre going for
2:10 he's right!
on car like this speed is not the point
the noise, the engagement and fun are the important things
even the wheel hop in things like this i thing is cool lol
I know you just got the Honda Beat, but man would I love to watch you build a Del Sol! Maybe even revisit fabium and make it mid engine?!
9:06 dude 😎 last video I complained about this subject and here you are!
I appreciate it 🙏🤞🥲
I wanna build a turbo yaris. A turbo Yaris would be SO sick
I've thought about this a few time, getting a Fit and throwing a turbo at it and see what it would do. 6.6s is pretty good ngl.
Cant emphasize how clean that into is, no matter how many times I see it
i would love some e36 content
Need to do this to my Yaris
Being that Caleb is a Mighty Car Mods fan according to his music tests, I think it is safe to say that "his car goes pshh-pshh" now...
Wanted one for these cars for years. Covid prices ruined it for me. So I bought an 03 SVT Focus for 3750. Zero regrets, love driving it so much. But still want a Fit for the economy one day.
Holy turbo surge Batman!
That thing is about to die.
That thing is about to die = probably last 20+ years doing it.
Nossa senhora, que projeto dos sonhos!! Tenho uma vontade de realizar isso meu Deus..
It's a little car, that's a good amount of power to make it fun.
One thing I can say, it makes all the right noises!!¡
Turbo the world!!
What about an E30 track car to compliment your drag cars? Cage, twin? turbo, weight reduction, aero, diff upgrades, suspension, etc. You could do lap time comparisons at say Road Atlanta between each stage of the build too to see what gives you the best time improvements. Set a target, 25% reduction in lap time compared to the stock car.
Awesome build man quick question how did you map it on the dyno did you have hondata flashpro or did you map the standard ecu also what manual boost controller did you use? Im from the uk i have a 2005 honda jazz gd1 L13A1 im going to be boosting mine and was interested on if you used a flash pro or not. Keep doing what you do your content is awesome 🔥 😎
Please keep us updated sir! I'm hell-bent on doing a Kswap on my GE, but this possibility has extremely piqued my interest, especially since it's about $5,000 cheaper than doing a Kswap. I just wanna see how this holds up over time. Cheers!
1:50 is that a Honda element truck?
