While it was a treat to see Eth hanging out with Alex and Miles the Skoda, it's great to see CT going from Strength to Strength. Hopefully we get an AutoAlex/CT collab sometime soon.
Oh wow, this Ciprian guy who makes the supercharger kit is from my hometown, Arad Romania :O Didn't realise I had such a talented Porsche enthusiast in my back yard.
20 years ago, I wondered why my $800 1979 924 had a switch on the dash turning on the fuel pump.... absolutely love this series and it brings back memories
I tinker on cars like this too. I'm waiting for a heart transplant watching this. Mentioned that to the heart surgeon who laughed about the comparison and then said: "It may seem like a surgeon's workto you but I do it with the engine running .... !!!" Classic case of - "You plonker" - there.
Car Throttle used to be a channel I checked out every few months at best. Now I actually look forward to each new video. The boys are doing a tremendous job with this channel!
For the block holes that needed retapping, you can use a bore brush (gunsmithing) on a drill with some PB to super clean them pre-thread tapping/cleaning. But if they so bad that all the original threads have deteriorated you gotta bore and helicoil it.
Rumour has it Ethan is secretly a master mechanic. Love child of Scotty Kilmer and Ed China. Raised in a scrap yard and forced to eat spanners and spark plugs. Apparently, 20th Century Fox based the character B.A. Baracus closely on Ethan's build, skin tone and technical skills
Hey guys! Congratulations on getting the supercharger on!!! I live in California and have the same kit from Ciprian that I fit last weekend. Can you share the part number/link to the fan you used?
How does the kit work with the factory cis fuel and ignition systems? I have a rebuilt Mercedes 560sel with the cis fuel system and I want to supercharge it one day , but there seems to be almost zero information on low boost and retaining the cis and the timing under boost. I’m not doing stand-alone as I’m in California so I need stealth and it to be easily removable for emissions
Great job! The engine bay looks great and having the car running always is an achievement. Great series as well, entertaining and somewhat wholesome. Keep it up!
I love the content and videos. People can watch these videos for inspiration. Loving the knowledge Ethan has gained over the 12 years, keep up the great work
theres a big problem with the silicone pipework on the Intake manifold at 17:45 the pipework expands in pressure blowing it up like a balloon which an intake shouldn't expand right next to the throttle body shouldnt do
I have always watched but was never a massive fan of car throttle when Alex was the main man but weirdly this and auto Alex are fast becoming my favourite channels👌 not sure what didn't work that now does😂
Please lower this on air ride and BBS RS’s. Love the fact parts are getting a proper clean and paint before refitting. Probably one of my best UA-cam builds at the moment 👌🏼😂
😂 probably not a good idea the z3 will have way more bhp and torque as standard before it was supercharged. Remember the Porsche Is 110 standard so I guess it may be 170 supercharged
@@Afraz_9n3 😁 I am being a little optimistic that the new injectors,serviceable items and tune will get it close to it's original 110 + whatever the supercharger can do. But you are more than likely right.
@@andyfreeman7057 absolutely, especially after the jag race Alex had against drive tribe 😂 Also it'll be nice to see the old car throttle team together again
Ethan's work ethic is nothing but fantastic, seeing him single handedly fit a supercharger has changed my mind about his mechanical knowledge
Let's not get carried away
@@Rumpleforeskin77 No no, let him be naive.
Ok ..Ethan could probably run an F1 team now .
I think Ethan actually sorted out the v12 for the new gma didn’t he ?
He’s a mechanical marvel. 😂
Ethan is Car Throttle's James May
I'm so glad to see where this channel is heading. Over the last few months I really have gotten back into enjoying CarThrottle!
@@trolling691 can't agree more! it's so good now
Because Alex is no more!
this comment aged well
12 years at CT what an achievement 🙌 after 12 years Ethan is a fully qualified mechanic what a man ❤
That long running joke about Ethan looking under the oil cap never ceases to amuse me.
The milkman 😂
I guess you could say they're really milking if 🍼🥛
@@stephensmith2027Beautiful 🤌
After the GTI and now this rebuild I am loving this direction of car throttle. Keep finding old bangers and bring them back to life.
While it was a treat to see Eth hanging out with Alex and Miles the Skoda, it's great to see CT going from Strength to Strength. Hopefully we get an AutoAlex/CT collab sometime soon.
I really like how the car is turning out, i'd really like a car like that too.
What an awesome project! Can't wait to see it properly fixed, detailed and on the street
I really fcking love this series and the dynamic you three have with this car 😂
Oh wow, this Ciprian guy who makes the supercharger kit is from my hometown, Arad Romania :O Didn't realise I had such a talented Porsche enthusiast in my back yard.
you must be younger, like 10-15 years ago he had the bright red 924 with the wide body kit, it was unmistakable around town. Morghen on 4tuning forums
There is little better than spending your 18th birthday binge watching Car throttle videos
Happy birthday champ
Happy Birthday! 🎉
Happy 18th birthday my friend
Happy birthday
cocaine and hookers ?
Ethan has grown so much over these past few years and his mechanical knowledge is becoming really good.
We love Ethan :)
Ok, I stand corrected. Not only does it sound AWESOME with the supercharger, but the engine bay looks AMAZING!
Car throttle now is better than ever and I've been watching for years. Keep up the good work boys!
Tonight,
Edwin holds some cups, Ethan says grass, and jack wears a beanie
I've read it in Clarkson's voice in my head 😂😂😂
Pump this content straight into my veins, I love seeing the gang work on knackered cars!
Sound incredible, can’t wait to see it drive❤
This kind of stuff is curently the best content you guys do, its briliant!
The channel gets better & better ...can't think what has changed :)
😂
This car should have been put in the bin, glad you guys are putting the work in to save it.
Honestly, this channel is getting better & better. Love the work, the whole team dynamic is brilliant too. So entertaining to watch
Always look forward to your new stuff. Always amazing content!
20 years ago, I wondered why my $800 1979 924 had a switch on the dash turning on the fuel pump.... absolutely love this series and it brings back memories
The porsche 924 series got me to subscribe to this channel. Very entertaining
"The Mona Lisa looks great. Does it run? No!" Hahaha. This is fantastic. Excited to see it drive.
I tinker on cars like this too.
I'm waiting for a heart transplant watching this.
Mentioned that to the heart surgeon who laughed about the comparison and then said: "It may seem like a surgeon's workto you but I do it with the engine running .... !!!"
Classic case of - "You plonker" - there.
This is a fantastic project and series. Thank you CarThrottle!
i have been watching the chanel for a lomg time and its so cool to see that someone from my home town helped on a project for u guys . nice work !
Car Throttle used to be a channel I checked out every few months at best. Now I actually look forward to each new video.
The boys are doing a tremendous job with this channel!
Makes me so damn happy that you boys are reviving this old car in a proper way.
You better take it on an adventure when you're done!
This has been an epic series, and I can wait for more! I am definitely checking scummy FB marketplace for a 924 to supercharge right now
Edwin is a bit of a menace like alex used to be. But in a far more charming way. Good dynamics guys!
The channel has got better since Alex left in my opinion, feel like Edwin has been here for years, keep up the amazing content lads
Loving this project, that poor thing needed some love, you guys are providing
Every video, Jack and Edwin's banter is so funny
So glad Edwin is here - what a legend

Uploaded this as I was about to sit down to eat, perfect timing
Ethan saying “Do we?” floored me 😂
These video’s are gold! Keep up the good work guys!
I met ciprian last august, very nice guy :)
Ethan: puts an oil cap on
Jack: you can go home now 😂
Keep it up loves, said it before but really feel like you've found the golden trio, fun plebs to watch.
Great job! The engine bay looks great and having the car running always is an achievement. Great series as well, entertaining and somewhat wholesome. Keep it up!
most addicting car on this channel by far! Sounds so good
I love the content and videos. People can watch these videos for inspiration. Loving the knowledge Ethan has gained over the 12 years, keep up the great work
Yet another banger. CT has been spashing it with videos the last few months.
How satisfying did it look once all put together. Edwin's persistentance to clean everything paid off 👍
theres a big problem with the silicone pipework on the Intake manifold at 17:45 the pipework expands in pressure blowing it up like a balloon which an intake shouldn't expand right next to the throttle body shouldnt do
Love the dynamic between these three guys!
Great job guys!! Engine bay looks awesome, she sounds crazy too👌
Channel videos are spot on too keep up the good work
How do you not have your own unit yet? You're one of the biggest car channels on UA-cam!
Car Throttle videos with the Trio never disappoints
The three of you work well together and Eathan is just a good worker
Love the cleaning efforts, a clean car is a happy car 😂
Guys this is fantastic! Good to see the channel finding its feet again!
Put Ethan on surface rust duty, give him a sander and a can of primer. Put that boy to work. He showed us he has skills.
Love the direction of the channel 👏🏻
Edwin cleaning made the engine bay looks do good
I have always watched but was never a massive fan of car throttle when Alex was the main man but weirdly this and auto Alex are fast becoming my favourite channels👌 not sure what didn't work that now does😂
Pretty good to watch and glad you're focussing on affordable cars - nice work boys!!
This is my favourite series on UA-cam recently
these videos and how this channel is going is so good and i love the 3 of them its great
Always have been and always will be a big Ethan Fan!
Such a cool project, looking forward to seeing it going and hearing the whine from that supercharger
Great video. Started following when you were in an 80s car doing a wiper test. Hooked ever since. Look forward the the next 10 years
Right. I want to supercharge my 924 now
I wish I had a 924 to supercharge now
Do it
since I opened my car channel on UA-cam I understood the hard work that goes into every video. congratulations for the channel 🔝
Love this channel, just messing with cars, good bad an ugly, spent my day doing it want to watch it, hilarious
This heap has become one of the builds i look forward to seeing on YT now. Stout
Well done guys! Nice work!
It would be really cool if you guys would fully restore this car and squeeze more power out of that engine :)
This is the modern day Last of the Summer Wine humour with three scruffy bastards! 😉
Was starting to worry about CT but thankfully we have content again
This Porsche 924 series is so good. Keep it up!
Getting back into cars and starting here
I think the POR HE needs some Bilstein shocks, lowering springs, and EBC brakes for a nice little budget street build
Ethan trying to pick up his children and then his comeback to do they own a supercharged 928 is probably one of my favourite Ethan moments 😂😂
Loving Edwin's Land Rover fleece! 💯
At 6.35 love the steady handwork
Please lower this on air ride and BBS RS’s. Love the fact parts are getting a proper clean and paint before refitting. Probably one of my best UA-cam builds at the moment 👌🏼😂
This must be my favourite project on UA-cam. Not even kidding.
The engine bay looks so sweet
Cake decorating 🤣🤣 love these types of episodes. Quality laughs
You 3 are the new top gear, it’s time for road trips boys you have to do it. Please.
Freddie's P1, Mat's RS6, nah I'm here for this little 924 ALL the way!
If there’s one thing I know, it’s the sound of an M45 Eaton Supercharger. Such a great sound!
Ethan is car throttle, he's the every man, like Winston in Ghostbusters
What a beast haha need more episodes like this 👍
Very cool supercharged Porsche engine!
Fair play to you guys, well done!
This team and a good upload Schedule..*Chef's kiss*
I'm going to say it and I can't believe I am, but I prefer Car Throttle with this trio.
"Bonne nuit" and "it shit it's pants" really caught me by surprise 😂
edwins land rover fleece is heat
I am really looking forward to the next video already THANKS GUY'S....😀😀
I feel a drag race coming on between this 924 and a certain supercharged z3 that we all know of. 😉
😂 probably not a good idea the z3 will have way more bhp and torque as standard before it was supercharged. Remember the Porsche Is 110 standard so I guess it may be 170 supercharged
@@krs4976although this Porsche made 70hp on the Dyno 😂do probably gonna get the original figure of 110 after the supercharger
@@Afraz_9n3 😁 I am being a little optimistic that the new injectors,serviceable items and tune will get it close to it's original 110 + whatever the supercharger can do. But you are more than likely right.
@@krs4976 your absolutely correct, however I'd still watch the video. The comedic value alone would be worth it.
@@andyfreeman7057 absolutely, especially after the jag race Alex had against drive tribe 😂
Also it'll be nice to see the old car throttle team together again
You know its a good day when Car Throttle uploads 🎉
