My CHEAP V6 Camaro Sounds Like A V10 After INSTALLING The Hooker RACE Exhaust
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 сер 2020
- I bought my $4,000 2011 Chevy Camaro RS with failed timing chains. After replacing the timing chains on the 3.6L LLT V6 it was timing to start modding it. 128,000 miles in the car is getting some SS touches and the Hooker Blackheart Race exhaust.

Wellll, I just can't believe it. But I guess I gotta, I'm lookin at it. That's more stainless gear than a guys got in his house
We need a vice grip/watchjrgo collab....
Weird coincidence that I regularly watch both of y'all!
Nice for him to give you the shout on on using the old strappy strappy puller thing to "whiiiipppp" put that exhaust right in there.
I like them both!
Well I'll be dipped!
The next "2 Minute Mod" should be removing the dealer decal. God do I hate dealer decals
Thought the exact same thing. I've never left any dealer with one on a car. That's non-negotiable.
Bought a new car last year. The first thing I did was remove all dealership stickers and license plate frames, etc. If they want to have their ads all over my car they can pay me.
I consider it a form of vandalism. I've always had my car purchases state in writing "no dealership stickers". They wanna give me a licence plate frame? Sure, I can remove that easily. But a sticker is sacrilege.
I like Dealer stickers! when I see a rusted out heap I can always laugh about it coming from the Rust Belt Salted road zone (mostly couple hundred miles either side of I-80 )
You know it never bothered me until a boss brought it up about my current BMW.. I took it off and your right it looks so much better. My boss was like why do you want to advertise their business. They wouldn’t advertise yours lol good point
sir that does not sound like a v10
its identical to a viper
yung tooli have you even heared a viper ? The Viper doesnt sound like that
DJJumpdancer its a viper trust me
DJJumpdancer probably faster too
yung tooli the vipers i heared sound differend
I don’t know how anyone could not like John Ross, he’s always so positive and just wants to show everyone how to do the things that he knows best
Its almost like your camaro is the generic straight piped 350z but less rev hanging
Never heard a straight piped 350z sound this quiet.
i love these cheaper projects. they are so entertaining to watch, love the vids!
I do to. If you are looking for more channels that do the same I recommend Weird Beard
That's a $3k exhaust
"Cheaper"
I spent less on my last 4 cars combined than the cost of that exhaust. Mind you they ALL still run and drive well (cept one that a gal smashed into :( )
I linked the exhaust it was $900 🍻
@@WatchJRGo fine. Two of my last cars then :p
In case someone wanted to compare the exhaust sounds Before sound 7:18 After Exhaust 12:10
Kinda too raspy for stock maybe?
I almost threw my phone when he said it sounded like a V-10
Sounds like a V10 if it was the size of a Lawnmower.
Lol
*DEFINITELY sounds like 1/2 of a V12. Very nice!!* 👍
>the key to working on rusted stuff.
bro that underside looks brand new.
Come to Michigan,USA and there's no place un-sealed that is "rust free".3 years and a Shock Absorber needs shop tools to remove,.Mostly a Torch.An 'Exhaust System' is usually 1 piece after a winter.
@@bryduhbikeguy I hear ya man, I'm in Manitoba, Canada. Not quite as bad here with the salt but vehicles definitely are ruined after 1 winter.
@@bryduhbikeguy Just as bad in PA and if it's a 4x4 after 10 years they are rusted out to the point they are ready for the junk yard. 2 wheel drives not as bad as not everyone drives them in the snow if they don't have too.
I lucked into your awesome how to video. I just bought a 2011 Camaro SS 1ss that came factory without the gauge cluster. This video just showed me how easy of an install it will be for me to do it. You just saved me money. You just got a new subscriber.....Thanks
I did like the way it purred with the Hooker exhaust. Great upgrade. And the gauges were an absolute dream to install. That's one beautiful Camaro!
> rusted car
> can still see the threads on the bolts
*cries in rustbelt*
must suck. i’m a florida guy, my car will maybe catch a tiny bit of rust from blowing sea air
I saw that and said out loud,... Get the F*** outta here. If the head of the bolts have not been down sized due to rust, ur not dealing with rust.
Yeah I bought a Saab that lived it's life in Ohio. Rebuilding the entire suspension was hell. Half the nuts were rusted round and everything was seized on.
Cries in England
@@kirbyswarp Yup.. Brakes, suspension and exhaust are just horrendous. Unless you are in a bind and have no other option, I would never buy a used car from the rust belt if you plan on keeping it. Use carfax. It's not perfect but you can weed out the likely nightmares.
Turned out nice. Sounds incredible and the gauge pack is a must have.
Good video. Happy to learn you fixed the Camaro at a much lower cost compared to the dealer repair estimate. Look forward to your next upgrade on the car.
Definitely sounds way better! Amazing what they're doing with V-6 engines these days.
Hey nice to see you watch Vice Grip Garage's channel. Derek is a hoot and the wife and I enjoy his content. Cheers.
Derek is the man to get dead cars running and then driving them home!
Another Stellar Episode from the One-Handed Auto-Tech.
I really like the Camaro content. Gauge cluster looks better than it did stock. Keep the videos coming. Thanks.
I've been watching this #CheapCamaro series and have been impressed about how you brought this beauty back to life. One thing I've noticed, or actually haven't noticed you doing is the the mod on the PCV system. If you don't do it you're going to find your now pristine clean heads all gunked-up with sludge again within about 30-40k miles. The GM 3.6 High Feature V6 are notorious for their heads gunking-up, which constricts oil flow and contributes to the timing chain / VVT / oil consumption issues. It's actually a simple mod where you enlarge the 3 holes on the PCV hose to valve cover connector (it looks like an old school PCV valve on the valve cover). While you're at it you might want to add a quality catch can to further aid in reducing the oil consumption issue. Look it up there are many tutorials for the mod online. Best of luck!
I wanted to cry when you called those bolts "absolutely horrible" lmao the rust belt sucks
I know, those looked brand new to me.
@@daveh2612 same 🤣
Agreed. If the bolt comes out without breaking, anyone in the rust belt is overjoyed.
Checking in from Europe, I hear ya... Those bolts were mint.
Acme Do they cake the roads with salt over there too?
It’s hard to tell, but I filmed the section where he puts the engine cover back on. A pivotal moment in this video. Just wanted you all to know.
Ya, got a little worried. The cover is like +50hp
It's true, and it was a key moment 💯
@@fiffe7782 Yes, but we all know the *removing* the engine cover also provides +50hp, or all the car guys wouldn't do it.
You can alternately add and remove the engine cover for infinite horsepower, btw. But you have to be careful of creating a rip in the space-time continuum.
Funny thing is that engine cover is as grimy as it was at the beginning. Clean the damn thing.
Elliott Alvis : it was the Best part Elliott . Your hired tell JR .
Never thought I’d enjoy a v6 Camaro series keep it up jr!
Well done young fella, this was a good honest project, with a beginning and an ending.Made for interesting viewing.
V6's Always sound better. It seems to be the firing order just makes for a good sound. Well done. Nice car.
I think the PC term is “escort” race exhaust.
I think it's sex worker
If you have to ask why the hooker has all her teeth, she's probably a cop.
I was always partial to "Soiled Doves" for euphemisms.
Lol
No, the right term is "road side assistance" race exhaust
Well I'll be dipped ole JR just have shout out to a guy! Love me some Vice Grip Garage was shocked to see you borrow one of his tricks wasn't expecting that at all.
I love his shop! Is it always that clean, I would take my cars there based on cleanliness alone! Great videos.
Glad John Ross is in on the bmw joke too 🤣
Its meme worthy at this point.
A fella really appreciates a good VGG reference.
Cold snacks for everyone!
Jrgo has great content, and that's what we appreciates about him
Sick cobalt bro.
@@kirbyswarp Danke! Matt Farah did a one take on it.
I love your realistic projects with a relatable personality. Kudos brother!
Jon Ross, I appreciate the way you hold the camera to where we can see what you're doing. I know this means operating with one hand, but I appreciate it.
I like the sound of a nicely sorted V6. That one sounds pretty good to me.
By the way, your license plate has a lamp out.
*Shout out to the car ninja and the use of his ramps and tools* 👌🏻🤣😂
John Ross i am loving the Camaro dude, I hope you decide to keep it as it is so Watch J.R Go man...Can't wait to see what the channel has coming up next? I wish you guys could put something out every day!
this was a good segment JR, like the gauge package upgrade, can never have enough gauges and the exhaust was a good touch also...this should make a great choice for someone wanting a Camaro and not needing all the HP and maybe someone who can grasp the need for routine maintenance unlike the previous owner of this car..I still can't wrap my head around that....lol
I’m not even a Chevy guy but I love the cheap Camaro content! Keep it coming!!
4:35. Even comes with a burnt out backlight.
Had to rewind to see if I saw correctly...sure looks like It.
Yep noticed that also... on the volt gauge left side...
I think you got lucky with the Camaro, I love the BG stuff, great job! Sounds and looks great!
That’s a drastic improvement in exhaust sound! 👍
Loving the camaro content. Great job
So the BIG question is....will it be profitable on resale? Looks/sounds great!
How AWESOME is the Car Ninja for allowing JR to use his shop/lifts/tools?
Was thinking the same thing:
1) Sponsoring WatchJRGo
2) JR is renting space
3) JR is helping around the shop
4) they are just really good friends, and Johnny has an extra lift.
Comment below. :)
Bullbutter 😮
I constantly find it amazing what JR can do with one hand.
Gianni has a fiber optic eye, can look inside the intake without pulling it. What a smoking deal! Even after the repair expenses it's an amazing deal. That V6 is no joke! The LFX and LGX are crazy optimized making almost 2hp per cube. A positive displacement supercharger will bring it right up to z28 power.
“Those bolts look horrible.” Let me show you the state of my New England exhaust bolts.
Right try living in Michigan or Ontario the rust belt epicenter....
Cars have little rust, if any, around Wichita. It gets only a minimal amount of Salt in winter. Above I70 is Rusty, above I80 is insane rusty
Mallet="Tonya Harding" if you're gonna envoke VGG get the vocab correct.
JR probably doesn't know who Tonya was.
@@garys9694 It's not like we can let that reference skate past him, though.
@@andy-in-indy That's cool can't think of a comeback for the skate comment. LOL
I'll be dipped.
@@ViceGripGarage I feel honored!
Sounds pretty good. Much more throaty. I like how quick the gauge pack went in. Try doing that with a '69 Camaro!
Love the sound it puts out now! Such a nice car now! Need you here to help me with a couple of cars I have with issues!
This is a really great project. I love the gauge addition. Personally, I don't feel the exhaust is worth the price. It just sounds marginally better than the factory one
Australian P platers with these engines in their "fully sick sv6" would like to know your location
ughhh!! Hate the sound of the sound of these and the 3.8 with exhaust. All I hear from the traffic lights near me "Mmmmm....mamama.....mooooooo...mooooooooooooo....moooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo......"
Hahah
You're not wrong mate. They all sound fuckin horrid.
Every car cruise, sound horrid. Makes an ecoshit sound good
@@jamesr5741 3.8 sounds better with an exhaust than an Alloytec.
New exhaust sounds great. BTW, Auto Auction Rebuilds mentioned you in his latest Coronet video, I had a bit of a laugh at that. 😁
been watcing for a few years.. subscribed because of the VGG comment.
Not hearing a V10, sounds like a 350Z with straight through system to me.
One of the LED is dead on the battery cluster
Thought I was the only one. Thankfully it takes all but 2 minutes
He also has a license bulb out as well
Wow! Those Hooker Cat Backs are just so awesome sounding. 👌 Perhaps I will look into their products for my 2010 Ford Taurus SHO. I may need a re-tune after that though. lol.
So cool to see you fix this without replacing the engine.
Got your Tonya Harding out to get your exhaust in place? Ehh? Love vice grip garage.
I'd definitely STILL smash. You ever see that grainy video of her wedding night? LuLz
@Steve Miller Great- now I gotta' go sniff that ice....
I think that’s Hoovie’s M Coupe at 15:50. In his videos he always makes it a point to act like it’s not in his garage, now you JR? Lol
I wonder if it’s for car trek. Unless it’s Doug Demuro’s since it’s got the Nantucket vanity plate 🤔
Keep up the great work and thanks for the awesome content stay safe and take care
`Love the way those wheels look when the car is moving down the road !
Awesome work! Hope you keep that one 😎 and I hope in more mods #ProCharger 😁
15:48 Finally a reference to the meme on "The Invisible Bimmer" from the "Dumbest Automotive Channel on UA-cam".
JohnRoss, the absolute madlad 😂
It is doug demuro car I’m guessing because of the custom plate
The king of single hand dismantling
That's what She said...
Still makes me nervous seeing him doing it
Can’t believe those gauges were that easy! Nice upgrade! Exhaust seemed pretty simple as well. Hey, tell the Ninja we need some content on that white Audi A6. I have it’s twin as my current project. I’m sure it needs a water pump or something!
Awesome upgrade, sound reminds me of my V50 T5 with a big exhaust and also my friends 370Z
Lol shut out to Derek VGG love his videos too. I'll be dipped...... I don't know lol
For some reason I thought you were going to putting a set of headers on this car.
I was but they were backordered for a month 😢
WatchJRGo will it still happen?
@@WatchJRGo Pretty sure the 3.6 has integrated single port exhaust. What constitutes a "header" for this engine? ( and of all of the mods I have seen for this engine nobody has done a "header")
@@edfrawley4356 yea that's for 2012 on up. the pre-lfx motor had an exhaust manifold for 3 pots each on each side of the motor. That's how GM pulled more HP out of the 2012+ 3.6 @ 323HP, this car 304 hp I think. I have a 2012, I love it. See my track vids on this car under my ID Tracktoys.
@Master Baiter sorry I was a little off, the 2011 and earlier LLT V6's were 312 horsepower at 6,400 rpm and 278 pound-feet of torque at 5,200 rpm. The 2012+ V6 Camaros were rated at 323 horsepower at 6,800 rpm and 278 pound-feet of torque at 4,800 rpm. with the removal of the exhaust manifolds, changed MAF sensors and other components to boost HP.
Thanks love the gauge pack upgrade.
I love the safety squints! 😄 They activate so fast.
That v6 sounds soo soooooo good I'm jealous brother.
Get that man a tripod
This guy is golden I love this channel
Just love it. Great fun car and it’s been reborn. Everyday cars can be fun projects😉
9:20 Do I hear a Karen yelling at the Car Ninja???🤔
Heat gun remove that dealer decal on the bumper. What am I, a free billboard for business?
i like the sound of the new exhaust. Am glad that it does not pop and backfire
OK...I'm convinced. I didn't object to the exhaust note on the stock setup and was waiting for this to sound like a "fart can". Impressive!
those wheels need to go. they make it look so stupid
STACKANE agreed
Chevrolet, Volvo, BMW, MINI. I wonder, of all these cars, do any of them take the place of an Amberghini?
Been wondering what happened to her ??
Seal Dogg pretty sure they parted ways, simple check of her insta shows she is with , or was with someone else.
@@CuddleClanYT yeah I don't fuck with any social media .. kinda figured tho since haven't seen her in a vid in quite a while .. thanks for clearing it up for me tho ...
@@CuddleClanYT What's her insta @ ?
Sweet, JR, more downloads, thanks!
Finally a return to the cheap car repairs!! These bargain finds and repairs are a lot of fun!
Sounds like a Mitsubishi or jacked up Honda Civic.
Sounds like a lilbit louder than a honda ex
14:41 it sounds nothing like a gallardo 😂 The first car i compared the sound to is a 350Z
That exhaust sounds so good!
The gauge cluster is a very nice improvement.
Still sounds like a V6. I wouldn’t have wasted the money
Sounds sort of like a ricer
@@pablopicaro7649 Agreed
He should have sold this car for a profit the minute the engine was fixed. I don’t know why he is wasting money ricing a V6 Camaro out.
Hypesoul uhh for content for the channel? Some people like the budget builds etc. He earns money off youtube, not by flipping these cars.
I agree sounds better but I wouldn’t do it
Sounds just like a V6 would. No way near V10 level.
Lol, check out my v8 on my channel :)
Adrian Rafael it’s ight kid don’t get cocky lol
Ok Dokey I’m not, I’m grateful 🙏🏻
Sweet exhaust sound!
Car looks beautiful. Great video. Thumb up...
Is it wrong that I prefer the sound of a straight-piped 2-stroke Detroit Diesel over this?
Not at all, my brother.
Nah man I love a high reving 2 stroke too brotha....
Notification squad!
I loved how you were pulling a hoovie at the end with that BMW M coupe
You are fast becoming a GoTo channel for interesting and fun stuff... Keep going Jay....
"sounds like a V10"? Dude, no.
It shares no characteristics with a V10 other than the V shape...
Sounds like a V12 would have made more sense, but still, no. It sounds like a 350Z.
Whatever happened to Ambergini?
Was thinking the same thing last episode lol
Who cares tbh, but pretty sure they broke up. Come for the content not a broad
Such a beauty and feminine, think they split in wintertime
Alex I "Such a beauty and feminine" tips fedora... Dude stop creeping.
They apparently broke up.
Wow the under body is pretty clean not a lot of rust it looks like. Do you plan on adding any force induction down the line or are you going to just flip it once you finish everything?
I own 1993 Ford Sapphire GLX with uprated V6. The sounds are awesome. So addictive sound. Couldn't match other V6..... It makes my knees weak. The exhaust system is Doug Wallace exhaust system. Sounds great.
Need to upgrade you Logo ...don't see yo many motorcycles in your channel....ha
This is why nobody likes V6 "muscle car" owners
Posers
Unless they act like what they have, there is no problem to having a v6 muscle car in general😃
@@jefftreseder4358 aww what's wrong did a supercharged v6 spank you?
JR The Camaro is an awesome project car. A word of caution...when working under the vehicle always where eye protection. Take my word for it.
Ok, so I ran across your video and see the BT on the plate. My plate has a SG on it so we're neighbors. And then you pull out a name-drop like my boy Derek at VGG? OK, I'm subbing. We're not into the same kind of stuff exactly but this series with the Camaro is in my wheelhouse. I'm into stuff like Derek does and off-road stuff.
To be fair, again, the Camaro series is the first videos of yours I've seen but I'll be checking you out. Thanks.
