Unfortunately myself and kyle did this entirely on the fly in the shop...LOL. As for the BOV, he wanted to make some noise so he deleted that tiny quiet one.
@@gokeysgarage Oh, well you did a nice job. Page 61 of the EFR Manual will show the mistake of not running that unit. If anything, do both. It's a recirculation valve that improves response time of the turbo...
Sadly I think most people have a unique setup, and this likely wouldn't work for others, but showing a local fabricator I'm sure they could replicate 99% of what I did for Kyle
I'm sure kyle could send you the bar specs as far as bends and stuff, and I think he has the cut files for the plates still... so it may actually be easier than it sounds!@@kristjanbjarnason5531
Thank you, Tanner is an incredible welder! Great question, ducting is a critical design consideration to maximize the efficiency of any heat exchanger. Kyle does plan on building ducting for the V-mount towards the end of the project. Is this a video you would be interested in watching?
Another excellent video, as always! I'm a big fan of the series however, I have a concern or question about the decision to drill the end tanks after welding them to the core. Why do it this way? I'm worried about the possibility of aluminum residue entering the engine. It seems like it could be quite a hassle to clean it afterwards. I understand the need for mock-up, but could you have tacked them first, marked the locations, broken the tacks, drilled the holes, and then finally welded them on? Maybe I am overthinking this lol!!
Ideally I would do that, but due to time constraints it was a "get it done now" thing and as long as you don't use any cleaners on the inside of the core you can blow out the shavings no issue.
A lot of chain parts stores have those energy poly bushing kits for various things like sway bars... get you one of those and some flat steel or aluminum bar from home depot, and do work.
Also, if you want to make something more specific, there is a polyurethane liquid you can pour into whatever custom mold you want to build in order to make your own bushings. My buddy did the for the engine mounts in his s13. A cut down styrofoam cup, some high grade all-thread, and liquid poly. They actually worked great for quite a long time.
@michaelrodgers6559 I'm aware of the blue snap bushings, the poly pour etc. It's just easier to buy the part laser cut and made. Interested to see the options he has to offer.
Thank you, we're glad you enjoyed it! The intercooler used was our 12833, which is 3.50" by 17.75" by 9.75". We used our matching end tanks, 22833 to mate up to them as well. The radiator is a large custom tucked setup from Rywire, sourced from Turn14.
Did you guys design the support in cad? I'm in the process of making my own vmount and need to make a frame support and my brain is hurting trying to figure out my angles and bends. Any suggestions?
Yea ideally we would do stuff differently, but for his setup and his goal of 300-400hp on this setup it will be more than enough flow. Plus we wanted to package it all as tight as possible. If he was shooting for a 800+ setup it would have to change for sure.
This came out PERFECT 💯
Hit power goals ✅
Easy to install ✅
Looks beautiful ✅✅
Easiest V mount to install ever!
Thank god I stayed tuned. Couldn't have asked for a better way to spend 22 minutes and 28 seconds!
But wait... there's more!
Looks awesome. Tanner does some great work.
Definitely gives me a lot of ideas for my projects.
Awesome build. Happy to follow along!
Thanks you!
Stay tuned for more fun!
Love this
Good work guys specially Kyle proud of you bro
Someone's been watching my posts! Good stuff guys. The EFR does not need a BOV as it's integrated properly into the front compressor cover.
Unfortunately myself and kyle did this entirely on the fly in the shop...LOL. As for the BOV, he wanted to make some noise so he deleted that tiny quiet one.

I'll let kyle make that choice, he's the engineer, I'm just the dude who welds metal hahahah@@RGHTBrainDesignDrive
@@gokeysgarage I'm just a designer and tuner who specializes in Rotaries. 😆 Beautiful work. Stoked to see this one come to life.
Great set up
Thanks! I know kyle was stoked when it was all done!
Nice work keep it up fam!
I'll do my best! haha
I'd love to do this for my RX8 13b rew build
Would your bro be cool with duplicating that bar to hold the radiator and intercooler ? Would make my life a lot easier
Sadly I think most people have a unique setup, and this likely wouldn't work for others, but showing a local fabricator I'm sure they could replicate 99% of what I did for Kyle
@@gokeysgarage yeah this is true mate ! Thankyou

Hey, are you guys planning to duct the heat exchangers??
Amazing and super clean welds!👨🏭🔥

That’s awesome and glad to hear that!👌
Yes 🙌 I would love to see that video, and actually more videos on this cool build! 🔥🙏🙏🔥

Where can we get those tabs with the bushing?
Tanner Gokey the fabricator in the video sells them here > www.gokeysgarage.com/

What size intercooler and brand radiator was used? Excellent video btw.

5 days lol 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 the little bits always take the longest
Tanner looks like ricky from trailer park boys
I will never unsee this now...
Hmmmm.... I don't think my hair matches his... haha
What radiator did you use
Loved the video but shouldn't you have done the holes before fully welding the end tanks to ensure you get all the rubbish out of them
Looks Great but what did you guys do with the engine oil cooler and also ducting?
We'll be adding oil coolers in a future episode. Kyle plans on doing the ducting when everything else is complete!
Did you guys design the support in cad? I'm in the process of making my own vmount and need to make a frame support and my brain is hurting trying to figure out my angles and bends. Any suggestions?
What dimensions is the radiator?
The dimensions are 24" by 13.25".
V mounts are cool, but feel like you couldve easily gone stacked at an angle
You're not wrong, we can't wait to put this setup to the test and see how it does
i wonder how that intercooler will flow with in and out like this, the air is going directly into a wall
It's pretty proven in the RX7 world. Could it be better, maybe, but plenty of people run them exactly like this.
@@deciplesteve Rob Dahm had similar outlets in his 4 rotor and it was choking the engine, he had to re design his end tanks
@@prodzektownia all due respect, but this car isn't flowing the same amount of air as Dahm's 4 rotor.
Yea ideally we would do stuff differently, but for his setup and his goal of 300-400hp on this setup it will be more than enough flow. Plus we wanted to package it all as tight as possible. If he was shooting for a 800+ setup it would have to change for sure.
@@gokeysgarage Yeah You got the point there :P
Dam grinding with the turbo and etc open kinda sketch
This whole setup will be taken apart, coated, cleaned, inspected and then final assembled. So if there's any dirt or debris Kyle will take care of it!
