who would've thought a 4 cylinder would sound so great! can really hear that turbo. quite excited to see what its dyno results will be.
Thank you! You and me both!
Dude, so giddy seeing those pulls. Can't wait to see dyno run, the car soumds so rowdy 👍👍
Thanks! Can't wait!
Im impressed to see a sleeper 4 cylinder Holden handling that much power, quite impressive build 😊
Thank you! Full built and forged bottom end, minus the stock crank. Plans to eventually push it to 50 psi in the future. Just have to sort my trans situation out.
Love your determination with this build Matt, you’ve come so far from your setbacks, it’s truly inspiring to watch! God bless and happy Easter!
Thanks so much! Happy Easter.
It's sounding AMAZING and I love it. Sounds meaner than I expected honestly. Especially that idle, hahaha. Great progress and great learning!
Thanks! Seen so many Honda and other platforms moded, and kinda get a "wonder if this 1.8 will sound like that" mindset. It's cool hearing it's own tone and what the reground cams did for it. Has a throaty lump to it for sure.
@@cmattdabrat Def sounds better than most Hondas I have heard!
@@cmattdabrat do you have to set the throttle position in the computer or tune to actual tpi sensor. I know some cars with key on and engine off you have to mash the gas all the way down and set computer throttle to 100 percent because sometimes it can be off above or under 100 and cause idle issue. Im no tunner you probably know more than me but I have picked up on tidbits here and there.
Doesnt sound mean at all its a raspy piece of shit
On a separate note. It's nice to see someone giving love and time to a platform/drivetrain that has not been widely given love by the aftermarket. Once again I see the parallels in my own love for my car Nd I appreciate the determination!
Thanks! I appreciate it. With not a lot of support, it's had it hurdles, but it's coming along.
Super appreciate your determination and getting s base tune dialed in for a car that doesnt have one ready to go. Honestly the the past 1.5 year I been watching suggested by CZcams and it's been an inspiration alongside my supercharged maxima build. Thank you for posting grassroots type of stuff I watch in full ❤
Wow, I really appreciate that! Makes it all worthwhile.
Yooo… that’s amazing 🤩 Definitely taking notes 📝 thanks 🙏🏼 a lot. you’ve unleashed a monster great work
Thank you!
Happy Easter everyone that celebrates!
Also, man I'm so excited to see this thing finally doing what you set out to do! Looks like it may be time for a short throw shifter soon lol
Happy Easter!
It's exciting that we're there. Now just need to get her in the hands of a tuner to get her sorted out. lol. I have a short throw shifter. Not too keen on it. Hard to tell if I'm in R, 1st, 3rd... Although I just need more seat time and was granny shifting to take it easy on her for now.
She sounds pretty quick! Can't wait to see some numbers! Great content!
You and me both!
Keep it up man I love watching these vids. You’re gonna make it big one day!
I appreciate that!
Dude! Hell yeah man! I can't wait to see some numbers! Love it!
Thanks! You and me both!
I fricking love it dude, it sounds MEAN 🔥. Can’t wait to see what it does on the dyno
Thanks! Me too.
That’s nice and it’s crazy how far you got with with car and the work you have put into it congrats and good luck🔥🔥
Appreciate it!!
Its sound so sick at 10:35! congrats man my engines going to the machine shop to check to see if its in spec if it is i will be boosting again in no time!
Thanks! That's awesome!
I can't believe how good that idle exhaust sounded on a little 1.8 4cyl. I'm slowly catching up on your journey, and I'm loving it!
Glad you enjoy it!
Really entertaining content 👌 she's getting fast!
Thank you! Wish it were easier to film the in car stuff solo and not get to distracted from driving, but I appreciate it!
Yo this thing is a ripper!! all that hard work paying off!
Yes! Man, so happy.
Buying a fuel injector testing/cleaning rig is a must when running E85. You could very easily have a injector plugged or dirty with how often the fuel system and motor have been worked on and replaced. If u leave any car on e85 sitting it turns to gel so quickly like literally two weeks the fuel is already going stale with e85.
Happy Easter man 🤟🏼
Happy Easter!
I would never think to care about a Holden/Chevy Cruze. What you are doing is really inspiring and unique! Keep at it! Subbed
I appreciate that!
Lol follow up right after I posted my comment I saw you did find a vacuum leak lol. Good catch!
Yeah! lol, didn't realize the plastic tee broke.
bro that thing is nutty can’t wait to do this to my cruze hatch
Love the hatches! Thanks!
The happiness on the pulls... haha, congrats dude.
Thanks! :)
Man ur doing an awesome job bro it sounds sick
Thank you!
Hi Matthew I'm happy to see you having good time I think the shif is too long between 1 and 2 buy a short shifter it will help a lot and make some noise 👌👌
Thanks! I have one. Just taking my time with her ATM. Lots I'm concentrating on while logging such as the AFR's, if there's any knock, etc. We'll get the shift times fast when it comes time.
Loving the updates 👌
Thanks!
That sounds soooo gooooood!
Thanks! She's pretty throaty.
Love the content
Shes sounding great 👍
Thank you!
Another great Video!
Thanks!
congrats dude
Thanks!
That grin on that 2 to 3rd 😂 man you are so excited
LOL! It's a good feeling finally getting close to the end goal.
This thing is gnarly!!! i cant wait till the big brands start offering turbo kits for my N! I wanna go faasssst
That would be awesome!
Sounds good in the higher end.
The idle Sounds good once warmed up.
Data is the best even for a ill 1.4 turbo set up.
I finally hit 13 psi and hit 35.5 mpgs. I also added the splash guards from a 2017 buick verano that they call areo package. It makes the air flow smoothly under the car. I found them at pick and pull for 15 $ & some hardware & epoxy some bolts in place as studs to hold them up on the outside. I don't have a welder so epoxy will have to work.
Apol get a ride lol which makes him happy.
Keep at it you are close. Guessing you will be around 375 to 400 hp at the crank but at the wheel 15 to 18 % less due to drivetrain. Ball Park figures. Hope all is good & be safe.
Thanks Jeff! That's awesome. Sounds like a fun project. It'll be interesting to see what numbers she puts down.
Nice... I think you might have inspired me to mess with my 1.8 also, except I got an auto, still would be fun...awesome videos though keep it up.
Awesome! I forget the trans model, but there is an upgrade you can do. Search Holden Cruze 1.8 Turbo and he'll go over what trans he's using.
I really like this project, you could actually use the VVT for improve performance on that engine. The HP tuner can modify the VVT behaviour?... And can add another sensor for example, MAF sensor?
Thank you! HP Tuners does have the ability to modify the VVT angle on both intake and exhaust at different RPMs. The vehicle came with MAF sensor from the factory, but I did upgrade it to a 3 bar unit from the stock 1 bar. Just had to plug in the new values for it.
Dude love the build, got a 2016 cruze i wana do some work to, i want to know how/where you learned to tune from tho, would love to get into it myself.
Nice! From watching @GoatRopeGarage @HPTuners and @HPAcadamy
Have you install any aftermarket turbo for a 1.4 cruze?
I know I made mention to you about your welders in the last video the car sounds good but to give you a heads up definitely see about investing in a primeweld Tig-225x they are great machine mine's been working flawless since 2021. I even added a water cooler to mine so I could do more aluminum work without the torch getting hot price on them now is $869 and for what they do it's the best bottom dollar for a welder under a $1000. and I even noticed in your video last one that you're using a Miller dynasty and this welder will weld right side by side with it.
That's exactly the welder I'm hoping to get this year. Was looking at AHP, but I think the longer warranty and seemingly better customer service from PrimeWeld has swayed me. The price for the capability is phenomenal. Glad to see another happy owner!
Will definitely look into upgrading down the road. The tools I have ATM are getting the job done, but if things get more serious I'm game.
@@802Garage definitely go with the primeweld Tig 225x I operated the ahp I don't like how the arc snaps on the AC side on the AHP and also it does the same thing on the DC side that's why I ended up getting the primeweld Tig 225x and also got the water chiller and a water cold torch too. And the customer service is beyond words if you leave a message they call back the next day even if it was a wrong dial they'll call you back.
@@danielsplayhouse3804 Awesome thanks!
🔝 de mais parabéns 👍
mashalah sounds amazing and power😍💕 great work bro
Thank you!
Super cool to see cars that are never modified, modified.
Thanks! It's cool seeing what other platforms are capable of.
I would be aiming for 45-50psi at idle fuel pressure like stock. When u hit boost it should rise up to 65 or 70
I currently have base pressure set to 58 psi on the regulator, unplugged from any vacuum source. Rises per pound of boost on the data log. Seems to be all good. :)
Nice! 🤘😎🤘
Hell yeah!
Sounds Great! What turbo is on it now?
Thank you! It's a cast wheel GT3582. Will actually be installing the billet wheel turbo tonight so I'll have the final setup finished for some dyno time.
Hey Mathew not sure if I noticed you talk about this. Did the car have a possible vacuum leak in the beginning of the video?
Very curious about 500hp tune. Great deal 😇
Definitely anxious to see what we can push her to.
Hell yea
I was smiling watching those pulls. The cam sounds aggressive lol
lol thanks! They definitely have some lump to them.
Sounding good and the joy in your face is worth all the bursted knuckles! ja ja ja ja
Thank you! Been quite the journey! Loving it.
Hello.Do you have aftermarket ecu or stock? I need a program to tune my stock ecu and I don't find one
Здравствуйте. Отличное решение, конфигурация для города 🔥 огонь !!! Подскажите, есть видео замер разгона до 100 и замеры на динамометрическом стенде, скиньте ссылку пожалуйста. Спасибо.
it pulls!! how much boost did you have?
14 psi / waste gate ATM. Can't wait to turn her up!
John wick is out here killing it! 👌🏽👌🏽
lol
Jw. With the spec steel flywheel. Do you hear a lot of the gear rattle at idle?
Definitely. Push the clutch in goes away, but does have chatter in neutral at idle. I'll do a follow up review on it in the near future.
You plan on getting it dyno tuned later on? Loving the build man keep up the good work.
Thank you! Definitely. Just getting her to a good driving state, or baseline for them to take over. Turn up the boost, dial in the timing, fuel, etc. and see what power she puts down.
@@cmattdabrat right on man can’t wait to see what she puts down.
Have you ever had a no crank issue after having everything apart.. just did transmisson job can't figure out why won't start got power to everything it ran when parked
I have. The ECU connections wiggled a little bit. Also, might want to check the ABS cables as they are part of a loop that'll give you a no start issue.
@@cmattdabrat I got it to start blown fuse now I can't get it to shut off lol.. keys off engine runs .. door locks on dash nor keyfob working the screen above radio is flashing on an off.... any ideas?
Help I know this video is old but I’m trying to turbo my 1.8 sonic the same way you did your but I can’t find the turbo manifold please help me
Sounds mean, can't wait to see what kind of figures she pushing
Thanks! Me too.
Hey buddy where did you get the obd cable from?
Got it with HPTuners. Was a package deal with the wide band. I’ll look for the link.
I can't find an intake with maf sensor for shit on my 1.4 can I bypass it somehow
You can switch it over to run off of the virtual volumetric efficiency table.
Добрый вечер. За сколько до 100 разгон ?
MUITO TOP AAA EU COM MEU CRUZER TURBÃO AVEEEE HEHE
dont flash the ecu before a cold start as the fueling is based on engine off time and flashing it brings that back to 0 off time, the cranking fuel table in the colder for e85 just double the far right cells as that is 12 hours off time then blend in to the mid should help, idle torque external load table increase the cold idle rpm/oil temp cells will help as its like an airflow adder, see how that goes
Thanks for the tips. I really appreciate it. I'll give that a shot.
Not sure if you would be willing to take a look at the tune. I have some other questions about scaling the airmass spark table. I kind of found the answer, but not 100% sure how to log spark timing as mine just wants to log only one row once I scale the table and log for airmass vs map.
@@cmattdabrat yea i can have a look at the tune if u want im using the e83 ecu on the cruze 1.6 turbo we have over here so know them quite well, u shouldnt have to scale the airflow on this ecu they have heaps of range, not sure how to PM on here did u want me to PM on your FB to get details ?
@@intolstuning3735 cool, I appreciate it.
@@intolstuning3735 Or FB works too. Matthew Chevalier on FB.
Might just need a little more idle air flow, and a little less spark under high boost.
True. I've tweaked the idle air flow a little and didn't seem to do anything. After looking at some tutorials online, the table are in a different area and has a torque based model for idle. I'm sure we'll get it sorted.
Have you tried more timing for cranking and cold start?
I have. There's a lot of tables that modify the initial cranking which I'll play with some more.
@@cmattdabrat I have the 1.4l, there is a table for cold cranking based on engine temp. Log the cold start and see how much timing she is pulling or adding, I had to pull 11 degrees out at 45 degrees coolant temp
Hey Mathew what was your peak boost and target AFR at WOT? The car looks like it pulls pretty good!
Hey Dave. I have her on the fat side right now to keep it safe. It spiked at 15 psi but would hold 13-14 psi from 5-8k. I have power enrichment set to .75 and it was hovering between .75-.8.
@@cmattdabrat Nice but that turbo is massive so that’s a lot of volume!!!!! What the AFR gauge set to? 1:1?
@@davesworld2132 It's set to Lambda. So no matter what fuel I have in the car, I'm tuning to stoich. What tuning I have learned has been Lambda vs AFR.
You're right about that. Not a whole lot of balls to it until 5k RPM, but based on my budget and with Maxpeeding swinging turbos my way, it's what'll help get me to my goals.
@@cmattdabrat fun!!!! I’m excited to see what it makes on the Dyno!
@@cmattdabrat so are you targeting like 10:1-11:1 at WOT? Basically lambda is like a .85 divided by 14 or something like that? I’m incredibly novice sorry if I butchered that!
Добрый день, подскажите где я могу приобрести комплект турбо кит со всеми комплектующими ? Сбросьте ссылку пожалуйста . Спасибо за обратную связь.
Apparently there is a CZcamsr who also did a 1.8 turbo build in Australia... if you haven't seen it yet look up...Josh 1.8 cruze
Thanks for looking out. Josh and I have gone back and forth the past couple of years. He was inspired by my initial build. I even learned a few things from him as far as parts that come on the 1.6 boosted version overseas. He's running 8psi and she's been living a happy life. Really cool build.
I wanna drop my 1.4 sonic off with you and just let you turn it into a monster haha!
lol
toward the fun part now lol...ummm I thought all of the runs you did in this video after you got her dialed in was fun haha. 😅
lol, this is true!!! I did so many drives, not filmed because it was just normal driving to get the fueling dialed in. Gradually worked my way up to boost and pulls.
@@cmattdabrat haha well each time you stepped on the exhaust and i heard the exhaust get louder and louder I smiled more and more lol 😆
@@djinkentertainment lol a lot of truth to that!
🚀
🌕
That thing sounds nasty!
Thanks!
Do you recognize the Chevrolet Sonic 1.6.hp turner
Why don't you go and get it dyno tuned so it's dialed in completely and you won't have to bother with all those issues
That'll be next. I don't have a truck to trailer it. So needed to get her drivable. I'm also enjoying learning something about tuning, but you're right.
11:42 1.8t chomping😅
So glad it has some chop to it!
Sounds like a Honda civic
Gap the plugs down for the break up
I need to look into some other plugs. These are gapped to .20, but the ground strap isn't level. We'll get it sorted!
@@cmattdabrat Which plugs are you using right now? I can dig up an awesome Ruthenium part number for you if you wanna get the newest and best. ;)
@@802Garage They are the NGK BKR7E 4644 V power. Not a fan of them thus far. The plugs I had in the car before seemed to work better. I'm always down to try a set out to find what'll work.
@@cmattdabrat IMO you should absolutely be running a double iridium plug or at least platinum. They are less susceptible to spark "blow out" generally and of course won't wear out nearly as fast. Platinum plugs don't have much of a performance advantage over "copper" AKA nickel plugs, but iridium definitely do and ruthenium are the newest tech by NGK. The old wisdom of "copper" plugs being the best performance plugs is, for lack of a better term, bullshit. The only thing to note about switching to fine tip plugs in general is they CAN have a similar effect to advancing timing by up to a couple degrees. This is actually beneficial because you are getting a better flame front without advancing timing, just means you might want to start slightly more conservative on the timing. Disclaimer most of this knowledge is from tons of research, arguments with lots of people on the internet, and listening to people who have tuned infinitely more cars than me, as well as documentation and interviews with racing experts and the spark plug companies themselves. Don't take my word as law, but I try not to spew nonsense. As for plugs I could recommend, I'm doing some research and I'll get back to you with some part numbers.
The latest and greatest Ruthenium plug with square projected tip intended for turbo engines is 92400 FR7BHX-S
For a basic Iridium plug which still has a nickel strap, but is a "high performance" plug, better than copper go 2667 BKR7EIX
For Laser Iridium which is what NGK sells to NISMO for their racing plugs for example, I believe you can use 5794 IFR7F-8DS
If there was a basic Platinum, the part for 7 heat range would be BKR7EGP, but it doesn't exist, you could use 7092 BKR6EGP
You could get Laser Platinum, Double Platinum, but not worth it over Iridium or Ruthenium by cost, that would be 4853 PFR7B
Any of these would be superior to Copper IMO. RockAuto has the Ruthenium plugs for $8.64 each. So pricey, but not horrible.
Of course, feel completely free to ignore me entirely and pick whatever you want. I won't be offended. I just enjoy researching!
That car is a sleeper.
U need to change that exhaust system as it just sounds like a raspy piece of crap.
Doesn't it sound great LMAO!!!
I have the same car id pay anything to have this done to my 1.8L cruze😭😭😭
I've thought about making kits. Although not too sure with the EPA cracking down.
Dude she’s so noisy i like that
Very much so!
Ioi
Damn that thing is super fat. Probably part of the reason it's breaking up.
