I got to drive one with an exhaust on it for a while. Fun in the corners, the tiny tyres do let you have some fun without pushing to crazy speeds and it feels pretty satisfying to drive but wow are they underpowered. And not in an old, light car without any power but you can still chuck it around kind of way, more of a push the pedal flat and say "oh.. is that all?" kind of way. There's a good reason turbocharging these things is so common! Literally an extra 60-100KW makes a crazy difference (obviously, that's a 60-100% increase) and it just feels like a much more complete package. Needless to say, I had a little fun but was happy to jump back into my 300ZX
Nah, I knew this was coming. I'm genuinely surprised they 1) actually bought one at all and 2) have ANYTHING positive to say about it. They're not the people 86s were made for.
I know this is a joke.. so I'ma be captain woosh for a second. But as far as I'm aware the FA20 respond super well to a turbo. Infact there is the FA20F making 300BHP in the JDM market Subarus
OwenWalker there’s a lot of Brz with 300-400whp on stock monitor built engine I’ve seen a good amount of 500+ highest I’ve seen is 750ish whp but at that point traction becomes the problem and the clutch if you don’t upgrade it
I have to admit, I like my current turbo car. But I still _love_ my old n/a engines, with big cams, instant throttle response and peaky power curves that have nothing below 3000. They may be a little harder to drive - especially on the street - but they are very rewarding if you're just looking for a blast through the twisties.

"Let's learn how to make power on cars that are slow. That no one likes except for journalists and the people who own them, including me and I'm not a journalist." By process of elimination I've come to the conclusion that Moog owns a journalist.
@@takentium7348 I've seen videos of some n/a J swaps. Insane. Lots of work. I'd be fine with a B18. I have a Honda Pilot for my people carrier. J35. Sure love the sound.
I have multiple chopped stickers on my b20 DC4 and daily CE1, soon to have some on my turbo DA9. To be honest, they can rag on them if they want, or not build one (besides the mini) if it seems forced. For me mcm is more about sharing and experiencing car culture and being motivated to make something your own than them actually building cars that I have. Its always enjoyable even when they make things as unlikable as a fwd Lancer.
I was having a really bad day until this was uploaded. Once again lads, it doesn't seem so bad :) Love your videos and the work you do. Big hello and thank you from Ireland.
2 posts are not as expensive as you'd think. The main issue usualy is the floor but as you can see marty's shed is on a nice soilid slab of concrete (which probably cost more then the shed + hoist)
Start with a better engine that can rev to the moon. Make it rev even more. Compression, very carefully wave tuned intake and exhaust rather than off the shelf.
That was nice of you dude.. You could have been realistic. Instead you decided to be nice and pretend you can make half the power keeping a motor N/A, that you can by strapping on a turbo. And for only double the cost? Man.. Your optimism is infectious. Realistically you can probably make the amount of power keeping a car N/A, only after multiple thousands of dollars.. That you could make strapping a 300 dollar ebay turbo on. Plus the turbo manifold and some piping and such, as well as a tune, running a conservative low amount of boost. Maybe five psi or so depending on the car and the turbo lol. It just really doesn't make sense on some cars... I will say though that some cars can benefit quite a lot more than one might think from your basic bolt-ons. I had a 5 cylinder Volkswagen MKV Rabbit.. The exhaust consisted of two resonators, a big ass muffler, and then a suit case muffler... Chopped that shit directly off, went up to 2.5 inches, added a magnaflow and called it a day.. Then the air intake, the one and only time I've ever looked at a car and knew that an air intake was going to wake a motor up instead of doing absolutely nothing.. Not even kidding. The thing came up about a foot long tube, did a 90 degree bend.. Went another 3/4 foot over the top of the hot engine, another 90, another 3/4 foot still on top of the hot engine, another 90, ANOTHER 3/4 foot on top of the hot engine... Out another maybe 1/2 foot tube into the throttle body. It literally did the most pointless, long, twisting loop... Right over the top of the hot engine inside of the engine cover before making its way to the intake manifold. It was the DUMBEST design I've ever seen in my life. A 300 dollar carbonio cold air intake (my only option) later... This thing was a bigger pipe diameter, the probably 4 inch cone filter was in the absolute perfect spot right inside an isolated pocket behind the bumper where air came in, and traveled about 1/4 of the distance to get to the intake mani. I never got a chance to get a tune before I wrecked it but... Trust me when I say this, I've had many cars and the first thing I've done on every single one of them was exhaust and intake because I enjoy the sound... I'm not someone that ever thinks my car got faster after just doing the exhaust and a cone filter. Had never happened to me before, hasn't happened since... I swear getting rid of those insane restrictions added 20-30 wheel to that Volkswagen though... On top of that 5 cylinder being one of the best sounding motors I've ever heard. Now, it was only rated at 150 to the crank you gotta remember. I don't think it's impossible that eliminating such restrictions probably brought that 2.5L 5 cyl to ~150 wheel.. Do you? Sorry this was so long.. I wanted to share with the class.
Daniel Nelson a good turbo build for a 2ZZ-GE costs maybe about $7k and can get 400+hp, maybe 500 but not reliably. For a $13k NA build my goal is 240 crank. ITBs, Really big meaty cams and supporting valvetrain bits for 9k rpm, 12.5:1 compression, flex fuel, lightened crank, haltech nexus r5 ecu. A gnarly engine like this can still be tolerable to drive since you have two different lobes for low and high rpm operation. I could probably make much more power with a Honda motor, for the same price, but because I’m stupid, I want to stay toyota.
@@Tzalmavet What exactly went over my head? If you read again, I 100% agreed with the guy I responded to... So... Here let me do you now! r/wooosh! Isn't this fun!
Not having to worry about heat and (more difficult) tuning is sometimes worth going NA. You also don't have to worry about stress on your engine or diff. I plan on going NA in my ND miata for hopefully an extra 30-40hp which is fine for me.
I have to say I've been watching your channel for at least 5 years now and I have since found a lady friend that doesn't mind watching with me. As it's become the only real show I watch religiously now.. my girlfriend bought me some t-shirts and a hoodie for my 30th birthday. It's sort of surreal to have merch from your show. I'm pretty pumped to have something to rep and at the same time she's a keeper. Crazy after 5 years of watching to have some of your merch in my closet. Love the show keep it up. Ryan. Canadian.
Supercharge it! You've done turbo conversations/upgrades to death and going back to the supercharger option to see what's available in today's market I feel would be way more interesting.
30hp for that $1500+ is not value for money. Enhance injectors, turbo remap and boost control can do 100hp for $600. NA is great if you want to spend a lot of money going slow.
There's nothing wrong with owning an NA car; there's plenty of NA car owners out there living perfectly kickass lives. My first wife owned an NA car. She's a pilot now.
A guy I’m friends with on Facebook from a car group swapped his FRS. But he swapped it in a way that nobody else has so far. He used the 2AZ motor from a Scion TC and then turbo’d it. Pretty cool build. He has a page on Facebook called SRTuned if you wanna check it out and see the car. I don’t wanna post his real name here, but you could always message him and he could lead you to more build photos and so on. Last I saw he was putting down over 300hp. Not sure where he’s at now.
I love you guys, youve been at this for such a long time and I've always loved watching. You take these projects on in a laid back manner and have such a great time It makes car projects seem less scary to novice car lovers. Thanks for all you do.
What other mods need be done won't it blow motor? I wana increase power on v6 3.8L what's safest mods to do? It does zero to 100 in 6 seconds but stil abit slow how can I increase abit without fkn engine lol
Might have something to do with the equipment they put in the driver's side tailpipe (no idea what it is but if I had to guess I'd say it measures co2/nox emissions). You can see it at around 9:00
@@m1llie_ It has nothing to do with the sensor attatched to the tailpipe. It has everything to do with the crap quality exhaust. Needs a resonator or a better overall exhaust design for it to sound nice. Currently it sounds like a straight pipe on a slow revving engine.
@@jonlaws4493 I mean, the stock FA20 makes 100 horsepower per liter without a VTEC style variable valve lift system while meeting various international emissions and noise standards. Armchair engineers always think they know better than the guys that have to actually sit down and design this shit while meeting X, Y and Z requirements.
Him saying that the car from the factory has 100 KW at the wheels was awfully suspicious. I wonder if his "stock" tune was tampered and purposefully undertuned so they could show off a bigger increase in power with the tune...
If you really want to make the most of this, you need to do a video on e85. I'd suggest an ECUtek tune as that would make for quite interesting content as you could cover not just e85, but the fact that it allows different maps (that you can change between with the cruise control stalk) and has a number of different features such as throttle blipping, launch control and flat foot shifting.
Not sure how it is in other countries, but here in the US, 91 octane really sucks the life out of them. They get a reputation of being slow being run in western mountain states with smog check certified OE exhaust and tune with 91 octane at high elevation. Then back east the cats get tossed, the tunes get changed, 93 is available everywhere, air is more dense, and the difference is pretty stunning.
damn straight moog... no filthy hot lagging turbos...you need clean, instant, internally intercooled, Supercharged Power.!!!......................many love, much props
@@mikeLOL45424 Plenty reliable, been 3000km. Running a SME Spec R kit (Supplied by PVS in the video^) which is a garret gt3076r and external wastegate. Running: - mantic 9000 organic HD clutch - RacerX Oil cooler - SME catch can - SME Baffled sump with oil return fitting - ID1000cc injectors - stock fuel pump Key to reliability in these cars is ensuring oil level is near the top full mark on dipstick and baffled sump to make sure you dont starve and spin a baring. Oil cooler to keep oil in its operating range. Most importantly, the weak stock rods dont like boost coming in hard and early, laggier options like the 3076 see full boost at 4500rpm+, as opposed to 3000rpm. All the failures I have seen were with smaller turbos like 2867's which hit full boost very early. I know people that have ran 3076's and other bigger turbos for over 30-40,000km with no issues at 14psi.
They sound cool, but i.m.o, turbo's are like the "Easy Button" for making power. I'm partial to a good N.A build myself, even more so when it's a rotary
Stroke it, add strong internals (forged crank, pistons, titanium rods), super aggressive camshafts, machined and ported head, intake, header, exhaust with no cat and minimal resonator, then retune the ECU. Probably make 130-140hp per liter, but will be obnoxious, need to run on really high grade fuel and hard to start.
With this tuner coming from a multi hour circuit racing background rather than from drag racing, I'd be curious to hear if he does anything differently when tuning for that type of usage
If you don't want to go fi or just can't afford to right now. Just go e85 with a set of headers/exhaust. You will keep up with and beat most STi's. Concidering the platform, it's a nice win. Just be happy with it.
At first i was wondering do we get a different version of the BRZ in europe because they come with 147KW/200HP from the dealer but isn't that the crankshaft power figure? So is the drivetrain loss about 30KW?
Him saying that the cars from the factory have 100 KW at the wheels was awfully suspicious. I wonder if his "stock" tune was undertuned so they could show off a bigger increase in power with the tune...
Stock BRZ horsepower figures are around 165 - 175 (125-ish KW) and that's usually with a correction factor. It seems clear this dyno isn't applying a correction factor to account for altitude above sea level which could add maybe 20kw at the most, probably less. His dyno, at his shop seeing 105kw from stock BRZ's seems perfectly legitimate, at least in my opinion.
A hub dyno reads lower and far more accurately then wheel dyno's. They are the next best thing to pulling out the engine and putting it on an engine dyno, which is where that 147kw figure comes from.
That was a disgusting amount of spray spray being ejected from his mouth. I feel like I would be drenched if I had a 5 minute conversation with him. He should hire someone to place wet floor signs behind any area he speaks. Can we get a shirt that says MCM on the back and splash zone on the front?

A guy I’m friends with on Facebook from a car group swapped his FRS. But he swapped it in a way that nobody else has so far. He used the 2AZ motor from a Scion TC and then turbo’d it. Pretty cool build. He has a page on Facebook called SRTuned if you wanna check it out and see the car. I don’t wanna post his real name here, but you could always message him and he could lead you to more build photos and so on. Last I saw he was putting down over 300hp. Not sure where he’s at now.
I love you guys, youve been at this for such a long time and I've always loved watching. You take these projects on in a laid back manner and have such a great time It makes car projects seem less scary to novice car lovers. Thanks for all you do.
Always makes me laugh when Moog just stands there nodding his head when an expert talks 😂
14:58 ah finally they're gonna grab a lunch that's not kebabs
15:01 of course not
This is so perfect for a 1994 Toyota Celica GT. I do not want to deal with spending money replacing a Turbo when it goes wrong
Depends on the original intake design. Mazda when they upgraded the RX8 intake actually bough an aftermarket design because it was that much better.
It also depends on the car. Too many factors to consider, certainly too many for an AEM type to account for and advertise big gains.
@3:09 Cundalini wants his hand back!
I saw moog’s identical twin in the blue mountains the other day
Supercharge it so you don't throw away your exhaust mods. Centrifugal supercharger will work really well and keep the NA feel of the power curve.
What other mods need be done won't it blow motor? I wana increase power on v6 3.8L what's safest mods to do? It does zero to 100 in 6 seconds but stil abit slow how can I increase abit without fkn engine lol
@@jayjunior2023is that the Chevy 3.8L?
@@Dizmo-g2k genesis g80
But don't worry..motor ended up blowing. Got diff car now . Infiniti q50 red sport. Needs a tune now
@@jayjunior2023 sorry for your loss, but happy for your gain. Best of luck man.
40hp for exhaust and tune is pretty gnar
I had my car on one of them dynos the other day and made 343hp at the wheels.Was well Happy with the result.
Exhaust sounded horrible on Dyno - like a jack hammer??
Might have something to do with the equipment they put in the driver's side tailpipe (no idea what it is but if I had to guess I'd say it measures co2/nox emissions). You can see it at around 9:00
@@m1llie_ It has nothing to do with the sensor attatched to the tailpipe. It has everything to do with the crap quality exhaust. Needs a resonator or a better overall exhaust design for it to sound nice. Currently it sounds like a straight pipe on a slow revving engine.
"bulk cow power" the ol' donut reference.
25% increase from exhaust and tune. I think I've never seen that on a na engine, ever.
Mojo shows how poor the original set up was. Mind you, the new exhaust sounds terrible.
@@jonlaws4493 I mean, the stock FA20 makes 100 horsepower per liter without a VTEC style variable valve lift system while meeting various international emissions and noise standards. Armchair engineers always think they know better than the guys that have to actually sit down and design this shit while meeting X, Y and Z requirements.
@@glhs386 Still not as impressive as Honda. Still not reliable when you try to make decent power with stock internals.
Him saying that the car from the factory has 100 KW at the wheels was awfully suspicious.
I wonder if his "stock" tune was tampered and purposefully undertuned so they could show off a bigger increase in power with the tune...
@@ErebosGR nope. I owned one before I boosted it. Did base reading when it was stock and it was making about 100kW Factory stock.
VW passat r36 is a fantastic NA car! Had one and always made me smile when i drove it.
"Who loves the sound of a BRZ?" Me, I sure do love my NA FA20 engine!
I’ve been waiting for this. I don’t want to go turbo on my BRZ. It’s fun to drive N/A but it can use more power.
E85 is the way. Runs really well now :)
Did you just say slap on the turbo? ;)
Nineteen96 yeah except like one in every 15 service stations have e85 😭
That handshake needs some tuning XD
😂😂
supercharge it Moog and hose that STI. you still have the "PURITY" of the exhaust note... and a BOV
And the torque curve doesn’t get fucked like with a turbo
@@mitchellgustafson3662 You mean like actually making torque? Lmao
If you really want to make the most of this, you need to do a video on e85. I'd suggest an ECUtek tune as that would make for quite interesting content as you could cover not just e85, but the fact that it allows different maps (that you can change between with the cruise control stalk) and has a number of different features such as throttle blipping, launch control and flat foot shifting.
Not sure how it is in other countries, but here in the US, 91 octane really sucks the life out of them.
They get a reputation of being slow being run in western mountain states with smog check certified OE exhaust and tune with 91 octane at high elevation. Then back east the cats get tossed, the tunes get changed, 93 is available everywhere, air is more dense, and the difference is pretty stunning.
UEL Catless header, with a new overpipe and a tune, totally transforms these cars; IMHO, this is how the car should've come from the factory.
8:50 When you're trying to stand still but don't know what to do with your arms!
Hahaha
When Joe Rogan was on Jay Leno's Garage he was the exact same way, it was sooo funny lol
Npc stance
Who lovest he sound of a BRZ?
When cold?
When modified exhaust is present?
Even Moog made a disgusted face there...
Yeah sounds like some poor bastard with food poisoning is dumping a mixture of blood and last night's takeout overboard.
I thought this was a poem until the 5th time I read it..
“Turbochargers are for people who can’t build engines” Once said by a wikid dude
Just traded in my 86 for an Audi S3. Best decision ever!...even if I'm in debt again.
Can't deny love for turbo life
damn straight moog... no filthy hot lagging turbos...you need clean, instant, internally intercooled, Supercharged Power.!!!......................many love, much props
".. were gonna spraying milk all over your face.." just slipped that right in there diddnya lmfao
"We're going to learn how to milk the cow of naturally aspirated purity" 😂✌
Recommend PVS at paramatta, it's where I got my turbo 86 tuned, made 280kw at the hubs on e85 11psi.
That's awesome, has it been reliable since the turbo and tune? Did you have to replace anything else?
@@mikeLOL45424 Plenty reliable, been 3000km. Running a SME Spec R kit (Supplied by PVS in the video^) which is a garret gt3076r and external wastegate.
Running:
- mantic 9000 organic HD clutch
- RacerX Oil cooler
- SME catch can
- SME Baffled sump with oil return fitting
- ID1000cc injectors
- stock fuel pump
Key to reliability in these cars is ensuring oil level is near the top full mark on dipstick and baffled sump to make sure you dont starve and spin a baring. Oil cooler to keep oil in its operating range.
Most importantly, the weak stock rods dont like boost coming in hard and early, laggier options like the 3076 see full boost at 4500rpm+, as opposed to 3000rpm. All the failures I have seen were with smaller turbos like 2867's which hit full boost very early. I know people that have ran 3076's and other bigger turbos for over 30-40,000km with no issues at 14psi.
That BRZ is getting a turbo in no time!
I just purchased a 2015 Scion FR-S and these videos got me inspired
Chopped by a honda fit at 2:11
That's a Jazz down here ;)
Or he’s just cruising while talking and the Honda Fit is accelerating.
This needs a rotrex supercharger....
Loved the video.
0:20 As a Honda owner I can confirm
Worth noting though, full exhaust and tune to get roughly the same whp as a stock civic si
@Gareth Tucker truuuuue
That guy Tyler is incredibly knowledgeable
6:43 bro I'm so high I thought he was about to spit some 🔥there for a second. 💀💀
When is the SuperCharger going on?
They supercharged a car in one of their episodes several seasons ago and they never liked it. So they won't do one.
But its what you want to do to this one! Snail supercharge it, gets rid of the dip too!
Supercharged mine with HKS. LOVED it!!
They sound cool, but i.m.o, turbo's are like the "Easy Button" for making power.
I'm partial to a good N.A build myself, even more so when it's a rotary
What kind of headers do you recommend? 23 kw or 30 ish HP from just exhaust is actually pretty good for people who love NA
Fuck, 30hp over stock with header + header-back + tune. That's pretty banging for a 4-banger NA!
Stroke it, add strong internals (forged crank, pistons, titanium rods), super aggressive camshafts, machined and ported head, intake, header, exhaust with no cat and minimal resonator, then retune the ECU. Probably make 130-140hp per liter, but will be obnoxious, need to run on really high grade fuel and hard to start.
MCM: "We're gonna learn how to milk the cow of naturally aspirated purity."
Me: ahhh that's hot!
When you said you weren’t going turbo, I thought you’d be doing things like camshafts and cylinder heads rather than just exhaust and tune?
Probably doing mods that anyone could at home
My money is on a SuperCharger...
I think the emphasis is on being cheap cams and heads are pretty expensive
Nah bro they need to do actual research for that, not just slap a turbo and visit the tuner
All the companies used are Australian and not the usual companies so maybe this series is to promote local companies
I'm a simple man I get a notification for mighty car mods I stop what I'm doing and watch the video!
Moog, you're absolutely right, you should not turbo this car. You should channel your inner Mad Max and give it a BLOWER!
Russel Coight's All Aussie Adventures kept alive with the handshake
The boys: make fun of Honda’s
Me: cries in VTEC
With this tuner coming from a multi hour circuit racing background rather than from drag racing, I'd be curious to hear if he does anything differently when tuning for that type of usage
"sounds like someone is trying to CONVINCE himself not to go turbo...." 14:20
If you don't want to go fi or just can't afford to right now. Just go e85 with a set of headers/exhaust. You will keep up with and beat most STi's. Concidering the platform, it's a nice win. Just be happy with it.
Haven’t even started show yet fellas, and surely looking forward to it!
0:13 when he’s about to leave 😂😂😂😂😂
At first i was wondering do we get a different version of the BRZ in europe because they come with 147KW/200HP from the dealer but isn't that the crankshaft power figure? So is the drivetrain loss about 30KW?
I don't understand either, the headers + tuning isn't even recovering that loss
Him saying that the cars from the factory have 100 KW at the wheels was awfully suspicious.
I wonder if his "stock" tune was undertuned so they could show off a bigger increase in power with the tune...
Stock BRZ horsepower figures are around 165 - 175 (125-ish KW) and that's usually with a correction factor. It seems clear this dyno isn't applying a correction factor to account for altitude above sea level which could add maybe 20kw at the most, probably less. His dyno, at his shop seeing 105kw from stock BRZ's seems perfectly legitimate, at least in my opinion.
A hub dyno reads lower and far more accurately then wheel dyno's.
They are the next best thing to pulling out the engine and putting it on an engine dyno, which is where that 147kw figure comes from.
May I cast my vote for a supercharger on this car?
12:15 Finally, Moog is convinced it's an STi, not just a WRX
3:06 Best handshake ever!
0:00 - 0:20 This is how much aerosol comes out of somebody's mouth when shouting... Sorry I guess I am oversensitive now... fml... stay safe! ;)
I noticed that too
For real
say it dont spray it Moog!
That was a disgusting amount of spray spray being ejected from his mouth. I feel like I would be drenched if I had a 5 minute conversation with him. He should hire someone to place wet floor signs behind any area he speaks. Can we get a shirt that says MCM on the back and splash zone on the front?
8:44 has anyone noticed that the left exhaust tip is hanging slightly lower? or is it just me.
yes I did!
Looks like someone didn't tighten their nuts properly
thats for the purity. leave it alone...
