Awesome B. I knew you would get her going. sounds great. That knob looks to be a boost control. The progress is so rewarding so far. Thanks again for saving this car.
Glad to see you making progress on the Turbo T. I’ll be along for the ride. I’m 6’4 as well and almost hit my head on the headliner when driving. Good fun
Amazing big guy! Did you notice any difference to the hot airs you have? Compared to those first drives? So glad you gotta another one back on the road.
3” single shot exhaust out the passenger side. It sounds great at idle but anything above 1500 RPM is way too loud. I’m swapping the muffler with something else in my next episode
I like how you break it down, that’s a lot. Nice work under the hood….👍🏼
Thank you 🙏🏾

Ah that makes sense. It’s not connected under the hood either
That creeper $500 😅. Just found your channel from your supercharger swap. I went back and watched all your old videos
A great gift from my wife. I would’ve bought another rust bucket 😂
Man she sounds healthy. I think you got you a runner!
She does! I needed a win. One engine rebuild is enough for now

Haha tall person problems 😂 Maybe that’s why I haven’t had a hardtop car yet
B, I thought you were 6'3" (guess that was sometime ago😅) and maybe, I'll get you some magnets with extensions for your dropped items. Love it.
Haha thanks! I needed to grow more so I could shrink to 6’3”
I accidentally did the same thing for my return! The vent line seems like it's the return. When I first turned it on I think it didn't sound right 👍
It got me good. Glad I didn’t run it long term
You can get those throttle cable clips from advanced auto parts. They sale a kit with various clips inside. That's where I purchased it.
Perfect, thanks
That ground wire that was on the frame goes to the j bracket that holds the turbo. Bottom bolt.
I was wondering why that didn’t look right. Thanks 🙏🏾
I'm gonna guess the regulator is a boost control thing. I just burn my fingers adjusting the wastegate rod 😂
Haha it’s the price we pay for more boost

Thanks! The biggest differences were the louder turbo sounds and the power at lower RPMs. Acceleration was much stronger but this isn’t a stock car
What exhaust is on there currently? Sounds really good 😂

That’s a boost controller
That makes sense! Thanks
Any ideas on how to fix the idle on my 87 grand national ? A little trouble starting no bad but in low idle sounds like it has a cam (but it doesn't 😮
I’d try the basics. Smoke tester to check for leaks, TPS & IAC reset, and the spring cleaning guide in our forums. I have a YT video on the first two
Just wrap it
Will do. The shape of the car should make it easier than most
I am pretty sure your clip is a Dorman # 90093
looks like it! thanks
