- I've been having an annoying problem with the custom watercooling setup for my Intercooler and I decided that with this lockdown that I would finally take the time to fix it.

We need more car talk with Jerry in the livestream.
Glad to see someone who has a nice car (and the money to have someone else do this kind of thing) not be afraid to do the work them self. :D
It's very refreshing
Just finished cleetus mcfarlands last video. Now this. Today is a good day.
"I have to put my cats back on, change my tune, and get it smogged".... Meanwhile Cleets out running Ruby as a daily driver lol
@@adamjacobs8606 One of the only reasons I appreciate FL. They really don't give a crap about cars.
Same
Any Cleetus followers know if there is a way to watch the Freedom 500 now? I wasn't able to watch it on Thursday. I really want to watch it!
@@tomwilson7765 Should be up on this thursday that what Cleetus has said. I Missed the Pre-show & Draw but managed to catch the race.
I work at Advanced Modern Performance in Dallas, Texas and we specialize in late model gm Ls and Lt powered vehicles. Your videos helped me alot when I was building my first pc about 6 months ago . Anyways Im not sure who designed that stupid ass hx tank, and the million zipties holding the tubing on wow. What you need is a Cordes performance hx tank which mounts behind the front bumper and holds about 2 gallons of water. The fill reservior you have now is total garbage and its an eye sore. Its a pretty involved install but not to hard and its worth it!
Connor, i hope Jay sees this
AC temperature 69... giggity. Love these videos, living my car dreams through you hoping to be able to get a track car one day! Keep em coming :)
Miss this channel! Keep up the good work!
I'm surprised Jay doesn't have lifts in his garage, with the amount of money he drops on them lol
I think he said once that he simply doesn't have the space, sometimes it's not all about money
@@DukeNuggets69 quickjacks are a thing
Hey Jay - when I had a C5 Corvette the best tool in my garage was a QuickJack. It costs more than a jack and some stands, but man it is fantastic for doing anything from brakes to oil changes to tire rotations to exhaust work. Give it a shot, maybe they will sponsor you if you make a video about it? I loved mine, it was absolutely great.
Good to see you posting to this channel!
Quick tip! I always keep a few dollar store foil chafing trays in the garage. They make great drain pans. Especially good if you want to reuse coolant or something. At $1 you can use a brand new one every time so you're not contaminating the fluid.
Yay racecar content
Had no IDEA u were into cars and i've been watching ur PC vids for a LONG LONG time I recently got a Widebody Hellcat. Before that I had a 392.Loves pcs and love cars!!
i have a cts-v and about to do some upgrades but i think one of your bricks could be leaking even thought you took out the other tank expanded it will not cause more pressure. and when he said PDR he was talking about a paintless dent removal guy
Nice Cars and VIds Jay.
Great video Jay. I just learned recently (You prolly already know) to burp your cooling system (remove air bubbles) remove the rad cap and let it run up to operating temp then idle for 10 minutes. Then top off the fluids. Love the PC and Car content. Keep up the amazing work.
This isnt an engine cooling system. Not the same.
@@Jayztwocents Ahh ok my bad. Love your content man.
Since you just got rid of almost 3 gallons of coolant a tank and some hoses you probably made the car 20 lb lighter or more and that's just going to make it go faster!
10 kg probably wont be that huge of a difference
@@jannickcst every 100 pounds is a tenth of a second every tenth is a car length in a good drag race
Ayy car videos
Jay, you ought to get a QuickJack to make all the car work you do at home way easier on yourself. Especially with how often your pulling off wheels/tires for new rubber and brake jobs.
How do you know how often I am or am not taking off my wheels?
@@Jayztwocents You've talked about how hard you track your cars and how important you view brake maintenance and tire replacement enough to know it's a regular thing. So unless you're paying someone else to do simple stuff like that for you (which I doubt) I'd venture to guess it would be a worthwhile purchase. I'm 30 and my only regret buying a quickjack was not doing it sooner.
wooohooo cars
im a gm tech love these
What heatexchanger and radiator do you have installed in the car? Are the heatexchanger inside the supercharger still stock?
Also isn't the IAT3 the correct parameter to check on these motors post the supercharger?
I'm glad I'm not the only one that believes in The Blood Sacrifice. lol
14:57 jay you should try to overclock a cpu as far as you can get it and watercool it with that pump
honestly im waiting for jay to put corsair RGB all over it lol
Baby there's nothing holding Jay back
With the big gulb reservoir in, you very well may have been OVER pressurizing the system, and when there is too much pressure, it generally slows down flow and will cause higher temps. Just a random thought I had when hearing about your temps getting so high.
The Big Gulp (not gulb...) is an air intake. Has nothing to do with the water system. We know why the problem was happening. This video wasnt about having people give advice when they have very little knowledge of all the details of my setup. Its about entertainment.
@@Jayztwocents I apologize, I meant the bigger tank. Have seen similar things happen to smaller cars that double the capacity of their radiators and increase the diameter hoses, which caused the factory water pumps not to pump as hard through the system. I get that your pump is independent, but wonder if maybe the capacity of the extra tank may have hindered how much fluid could be circulated.
Do a video on that beautiful Trek bike!! I'd love to see more cycling content!👍
The garage princess 350z 😲. It's nice to see some car vids finally though. 👍🏾👍🏾
its a 370z but i mean nissan has made so few changes it doesn't really matter
@@jessemartin2698 I thought it was 370z but wasn't quite sure which one it was
Cant believe your still running the stock water pump Im using A stweart emp for mine
For the supercharger? I havent had a flow issue so far.
@@Jayztwocents yeah the stock ones perform quite well there's more water pump flow on the table out there if you never need it
im pumping water from the boot all the way to the front and cost wise here in aus the stock zl1 and the aftermarket are negligible
love the car too only just starting to see them pop up in aus
Can you water cool a pc with car parts and a car with pc parts
Jay! I commented over on your main channel, but I will post over here as well. I was getting caught up on some of the VinWiki videos, and I saw one where Ed Bolian asked some of his friends if they had $60k to spend on a car, what would they get? I am curious to hear your response. Hypothetically speaking, Jay, If you had $60k to spend on a car, what would you get, and why?
Do some sim rig stuff please jay
More car videos please!
sick bro 🤘
How practical would water/meth injection be on a road race car? I have one on my turbo Trans Am set to kick on at 5psi and above, but have never had the car on track. Not sure if those pumps are rated for high duty cycles a road course would demand. IATs plummet when it kicks on though!
It isnt practical at all for a road race car.
His set of wheels on both his cars is worth more then most of comments life investments
Hi Jay,
Is the garage reserved just for your 2 fun cars? Where do you keep the family car and the Ford Raptor? Do you have a separate garage or do those just park in the drive way?
Thanks
The family cars and my truck (not a Raptor, not sure where you got that idea) are parked outside.
Cool thanks, was just curious.
I'm not sure why I thought it was a raptor either. I remember watching the video where you modified it a while back so I knew you had a truck. Just went back and saw that it was a RAM. My bad, I got the bad brain.
He has an overclocked car
Next video: Full hard line water cooling black widow supra lol
Great keep going 👍🥰
hey jay, does it have an expantion tank? (like the radiator system) if you are building that much pressure then it might be worth looking at if you still have issues after this
No, it isnt necessary
Non native speaker here, when Jay says I digress what does he mean? Searched for the meaning online but couldn't grasp it :/
When he says I digress he is basically acknowledging that he was getting off topic and that he will get back to his main point
@@pungpoo thanks! I thought it was something like disagree or something like that, you the best
@@rujigo69 Little addition: he says it in honor of an old co-worker who unfortunately passed away due to kidney problems. Whenever there was some sort of meeting, he would say these words very often. :)
I don't see any book shelves in this garage.
13:00 Lewis Capaldi song in the background, thought I left a TV on in the house smh
umm why cut the hose when the hose clamp is right there lmao
I have no interest in cars but it’s jay so I’m intrested
I wish to afford a car of that caliber.
Makes me feel poor just by looking at them.
Did you put those gauges for temp because Camaro doesn't have those, or want more "reliable" read out with your own sensors? Dodge gives the same sense values in all "srt pages" cars ! MOPAR OR NO CAR! (PS. Still better than owning Ford lolololol 😱)
Obviously I added the gauges.
Ah should've kept the tank in there and just converted it to water/meth
He's already running on e85 so the benefits of water/meth are negligible. Also not something that man doing road courses like to run since youd have to constantly worry about running out.
@@Josh83089 If only he had watched before commenting right?
@@Josh83089 No and no. Less significant, certainly not negligible. And when you run out the computer will just pull timing out until you're back to where you were without it.
@@Jayztwocents Is this turning in to a roast? I did watch it, though I fell asleep at one point, you must have mentioned it then.
@@teddygoboom1 As I said before, given hes already using alcohol as a fuel the benefits of water/meth injection are largely negated. It may bring down IATs but it would just be something to check and fill constantly for no power benefit since his fuel system is up to the task already. He would have to be running boost to the point his current fuel system was insufficient for there to be any point. Also, you're wrong about the ecu pulling timing, so you're clearly not familiar enough with running alcohol as a fuel in place of gasoline. Different fuels knock/detonate at different frequencies, so unless a knock sensor is calibrated for e85 spark knock, the engine would be trashed before the ecu ever knew there was anything happening. The only way it could pull timing to save its self is if it had a trigger set to retard the timing when the fluid level runs low. That's assuming that the ECU can take in a triggered input to do tune map manipulation and I dont believe the stock GM ecu can.
man you and b is for build be interesting see which car races and challenge. but b is for build he builds cars. but be interesting :) computer vs car XD
careful you'll get copy right striked XD
reminds me, i need to change my manual transmission fluid..
Idea for a stupid video for computer channel. Water cool a pc with car grade pump and rads
Second
shout me out plz
No
@@Jayztwocents ok cries in digressing
