"I'm gonna drop out of school and do what I love...work on cars." Watches Zach turbo his car. "I'm going for an engineering degree so I can work on cars"
An engineering degree won't necessarily get you to working on cars. Trust me. I'm a mechanical engineer and the closest I am to working on cars is watching Money Pit. If u really wanna work on cars, do a little more research on how to get there. Maybe work on ur own car, or apply for apprenticeship at a workshop, or take technical workshops on how to be a mechanic. Don't make the same mistake I did.
Big Yeet Daddy Just about every college degree is a meme other than nursing, law, medicine, veterinary, education, and engineering. That’s cause with those professions it’s illegal to work without a degree. As for the mechanical engineer above who doesn’t get to work on cars, did you join you universities FSAE/formula student team? I’m still a student so who knows if I’ll have a career in the automotive industry, but by joining my university’s FSAE team I am able to help design and build a race car that competes against other schools. I get to wrench and test and learn all about cars without spending a dime of my own money. If you’re really into cars and you have the drive engineering is definitely an avenue to get into them. Now getting your red seal or some other certificate as a mechanic may also be a legit way to get a career in cars, but university can also open that door. Edit: I am a mechanical Engineering student for clarification.

I mean sure, but the Subaru is a hell of a lot easier to do anything than my old GTiR's were.. While I do wish I still had one (or could afford one) I'll stick to the subarus for now.
@@logandvorak Yeap, this one sucked also... One side is easy, getting to the other one requires removing the intake manifold or breaking the top of the assembly :/ On the 2007 STI, at least. Some Foresters apparently have it easier...
@@logandvorak I mean, I replaced the starter in my truck in about 15 minutes. I looked at the starter in my girlfriend's Subaru and decided that was gonna really suck, since it was practically pinned to the firewall under a lot of a/c lines and I could barely feel one of the bolts, let alone see it
I really respect this series man. Its super cool watching him build a project turbo Miata from scratch. It really boosts the ol' confidence when I look at my labor of love sc400
An important factor is also what fuel you’re running (for ex. 91 octane or E-85). If you’re running E-85 your fuel injectors will need to be 30% larger with your calculation. So say 750CC injectors make 400 hp with 91 octane, with E-85 might make less than 350. Note: If you’re running E-85 you must get your injectors cleaned 4 times per year and replace all fuel filters (including in tank) at least twice per year.
I just want to say thank you to all of the creators who helped me get through this year. I felt like I’ve gotten to know you all a bit better and you will have my support henceforth.
Definitely would recommend upgrading the fuel pump. Pressure is going to drop flow. It may flow 165 at whatever unknown pressure it is rated at but it probably doesnt flow that at 54 psi.
@@whitewing828 That's a bit much if they don't plan on upgrading the regulator. I'd probably recommend a DW200 if it was for my car. Cheaper/e85 compatible
Zach, there are some slip on solder joints that come covered in heat shrink. All you have to do is slip it on, twist wires together, line it up, and hit it with a heat gun. Way better than the ol spool/flux/iron method.
Great video as always, but something i've learned from some car/engine builders is that you should NEVER solder wires, specially injector wires, crimping is always the best way to do it, just saying....
It’s important to mention you should check the correct impedance of the injectors when buying a set. If you get the wrong type of injectors you'll end up wasting time and money shipping new ones, or having to jerry-rig some resistors or PWM in software.
Lately if I don't know what I should work on our what I could upgrade on my car I just inspect and or change out whatever this week's Money Pit part is. Thank you Donut for having informative easy to follow along build show
14:38 You could use a little double sided tape around the body of the gauge to help stick it in place. This way it doesn't fall out when you break and should hold enough until you go with that digital gauge. Temporary solution that doesn't damage anything, easy to clean up with a little solvent, and will keep you from getting frustrated.
For anyone following along, the fuel injector harness is really easy to detach from the rest of the harness and pull out, so you can rewire on a workbench instead of in the car.
This chanel helps me alot Cus im intalling a turbo on my n/a miata love it so much And the b2b ilove it too so shout out to dunot media for creating a chanel thats educational and fun love it
It’s nice to see somebody to doing soldering correctly. Do not use heat to melt the solder onto the wire, this will create what’s called a “cold solder” and can break under vibrations. Heat the wire and let the solder flow in to the strands.
butane soldering irons are freaking awesome. they make soldering a million times easier because they heat up so fast, they maintain the heat easily even in wind, and there's no cord. also, pro tip: use flux. it keeps the joint clean while you solder, but the main reason it's awesome is that it makes the wire heat up like ten times faster. i use the dremel butane soldering iron. it comes in a nice metal tin you can throw in your tool box. and i use AMTECH NC-559-V2-TF flux. it comes in a syringe so it's super easy to get it where you want it. there are cheaper ones with good ratings, but this one is the best. it's only a few bucks more and you're much less likely to have to deal with headaches.
10:43 Sometimes you can take apart the clips on both harness's to avoid having to cut and soldering and its a lot more secure of a connection. I guess you could get the old ones off then strip the wire back then take apart the new clips and stick your stock wires in. Better connection imo maybe it doesnt really matter but thats how i've been fixing broken clips in my engine bay
Remember fuel injector are rated at a certain pressure usually 39 or 43.5 which is normal for older return style cars but newer cars with returnless usually bring 50+ make sure to account for that and I like usi g used own injectors like I used 2013 gt500 injectors in my 2011 mustang till need more bigger ones and they were like 175 vs 360 for the bigger after market ones I had to get also different connections had to use adapters in the aftermarket ones and didn't like it but worked fine. Also a lot of newer cars come with big ass fuel pumps and often don't need a pump upgrade til going for big power. This is second hand so keep that in mind, If you go with different rails with bigger diameter they can change your injectors amount I was told but I've never needed to upgrade rails so not sure how true or how much it actually does.
I think money pit is my favorite series on donut because it has the best and most knowledgeable presenter lol a car channel presenter that knows about cars or building cars which is what I like to watch. No offence to james, nolan.
Fuel pumps tend to lose a little pressure over time, especially when they get pretty old, say 15+ years 150k+ miles. If you're modding an older car, don't count on a stock fuel pump delivering 100% of it's rated performance. Just be sure you have decent safety margin.
Love it. Only things I would have done differently was to retain AC, and to have an ECU that is able to feed data such as the wideband and boost to your head unit, (you mentioned somethng similar) thus no physical dials and retain your AC vents
An awesome rule of thumb employed by Turbo Yoda and Tuning fork is one litre per hour per horsepower you aim to get from your engine. It is, of course, a rule of thumb *not* a calculation which is going to reliably inform you what your pump needs to flow.

Watching how easy this is on a Miata: ughhh
butane soldering irons are freaking awesome. they make soldering a million times easier because they heat up so fast, they maintain the heat easily even in wind, and there's no cord.
also, pro tip: use flux. it keeps the joint clean while you solder, but the main reason it's awesome is that it makes the wire heat up like ten times faster.
i use the dremel butane soldering iron. it comes in a nice metal tin you can throw in your tool box.
and i use AMTECH NC-559-V2-TF flux. it comes in a syringe so it's super easy to get it where you want it. there are cheaper ones with good ratings, but this one is the best. it's only a few bucks more and you're much less likely to have to deal with headaches.

Been waiting months for this. The anticipation is killing me‼️ can’t wait to see it run.
I'm loving this channel, honestly thinking about buying a little miata, my guy has all the work figured out
I think money pit is my favorite series on donut because it has the best and most knowledgeable presenter lol a car channel presenter that knows about cars or building cars which is what I like to watch. No offence to james, nolan.
Fuel pumps tend to lose a little pressure over time, especially when they get pretty old, say 15+ years 150k+ miles. If you're modding an older car, don't count on a stock fuel pump delivering 100% of it's rated performance.
Just be sure you have decent safety margin.
The musical interlude for soldering was beautiful
It feels illegal watching this for free.... this series is so good
Just bought me a cxracing gt35 😁 been waiting to do this for awhile😧. Just watching this the Miata build motivated me to finally do it
Love it. Only things I would have done differently was to retain AC, and to have an ECU that is able to feed data such as the wideband and boost to your head unit, (you mentioned somethng similar) thus no physical dials and retain your AC vents
An awesome rule of thumb employed by Turbo Yoda and Tuning fork is one litre per hour per horsepower you aim to get from your engine. It is, of course, a rule of thumb *not* a calculation which is going to reliably inform you what your pump needs to flow.
