I Turbocharged My Daily Driver And Took It To The Dyno
Вставка
- Опубліковано 26 вер 2024
- The previous videos I built a custom turbo kit using a garret GT2560R turbo for my daily driver: a 2008 Honda Fit. In this video we take the car to the dyno to see how much power it'll make! Plus, we test to see how much faster it is!

Thanks for trusting us! Let us know if you need help in the future with other projects. Also thank you for making this a smooth day!
I'm thinking about slapping a turbo on the fit(been on the fence if I should or not) if so Im taking it to you guys. Im out in Savannah.
This just shows having less HP can be more fun than having more HP, my Mustang is basically stock power wise but almost all of the suspension has been swapped out and to me it feels perfect
i say the same, alot of horsepower only has benefits in motorsport... the only thing you do on the street is bragging rights which doesnt do anything for you. Ive always been into high power cars but come to realise more and more... why? i have more fun driving my 60s shitbox fast than anything else in the end.
@@eriksimca9409 I'm young and have gotten the chance to drive my dads friends highly tuned Subaru along with a gift from my dad to drive a Demon and a GTR Godzilla at a abandoned airfield, though there's something about my friends dad's little Seat Ibiza with a small turbo that just makes me giggle each time I drive it.
@@stellarose03with "gtr godzilla" you surely meant the r32 which is the only godzilla gtr
@@Blue__244 it was an R35 GTR, though it was just named Godzill. It was heavily tuned to about 650-750hp I think, so it was still a blast to drive!
Stop kidding yourself? You definitely have more fun if you mustang made a extra 100hp overnight and you are lying if you don’t agree. Sure you can always have fun but you don’t necessarily know what your missing if you’ve never had a huge jump in power on a car you have owned for a long time.
Driven like a true honda boy, smashing the limiter for a good 2-3 seconds at 1st gear 😂
You gotta spin yourself up to second gear speed 😂
Gotta let the VTEC slip the wheels into 2nd for optimal pull 😂😂
Bro wake up, gingium posted.
My exact feeling the moment I got that notification
The feeling I had when I saw it on my recommendation page.
Bro? 🤨
I’m in shock seeing this still. I am the designer of the ebtec logo. My blue S14 is in the front of the shop still today. I had to sell due to a family emergency and Emmino helped me out. He’s a great guy and he understood the pain of it. Thank you for putting ebtec high up. Brought a tear to my eye. I just recently started coming back into cars after quitting since to focus on my family and this brought me full circle. God bless.
It'd be cool to see another turbo economy car
Yaris would be dope
@@_Gingium_DUDE YES
@@_Gingium_ ooh didnt MCM do a turbo yaris? thatd be a fun one
@_Gingium_ could do some crazy stuff to a fiesta ST. With your crazy fab skills, you could make an awd one 👀
@@_Gingium_Fiesta ST maybe? They are turbo from the factory so all the stuff is already there, you would "just" upgrade the existing setup👀👀👀👀👀👀👀
Turbo LS400 would be pretty cool.
That car definitely needs a track day! I'm sure that thing would be loads of fun!! Also, a turbo mini truck would be top tier!
This is exactly what I’ll be doing to my ge8 Fit. If you all didn’t know “unequal fabrication” out of South Carolina makes turbo kits for our cars now. Time to get some boost!
Good to know, thanks!
Not gonna lie, this series was one of the first things I've seen of your channel and it was very fun
Lying is immoral: don't lie.
My all-time favorite content from you:
1. Shop builds
2. Drift truck/1G builds
Anything like those and I'm in. 👍🏾
take me back to the RX7 build ;-;
@aegistechreviews7410 i wasn't around for those. I was in a shop build rabbit hole, which is how I find him. Although I had seen the wagon once or twice prior.
Nice convertible Honda element 1:50 😅👌
I didn't notice that lmao
Definitely could fit a fridge in that thing!
I spotted that immediately
I followed this FIT saga here in Brazil, because I've had a 2008 Honda Fit 1.5 16V Vtec for less than two years and I love the car. Unfortunately, I don't have the knowledge or financial means to do all this with mine, which by the way is very tired, but it was really cool to know its potential and everything it would need.
Congratulations on your videos and content. I will continue to follow the channel with great joy.
Man this thing is so rad now!!
Yessir! So much fun to drive!
This has been really cool. I'd honestly like to see more economy car based turbo builds.
A light weight hatchback with some turbo spunk just makes day to day life so much more enjoyable. Still got room for friends and carrying cargo. But the noises that make an enthusiast laugh everyday. Well my FIst has done this for me at least. Thank you for years of enjoyable content.
Have the same car and love it, was hoping he could make 200 WHP and equal torque like a stock ST but maybe his car is lighter? This is a fun series and hope to see the car evolve further.
@@Blas4ublasphemy The only place to go next is to swap the motor for a K series and ditch the L15. The reason is the bore of the motor the K series has way bigger output and of course displacement and the L15 is more economic and has a small displacement and bore output so it's limited by default.
more boost and bigger injectors won't help?@@b4ssfunk3d
i love how happy he looks, he looks like he's genuinely having so much fun, keep going Gingium!!
I'd like to see a turbo e36. But the thought of the sound of a boosted 1uz sounds amazing!
This channel is #1 he needs millions of subs
There’s been a little extra spice added in your production and editing recently and I’m loving it
Yessss turbo e36 drift project needs to happen!!!!
Would be very original content nobody does e36s these days…..
Turbo e36 woulld be sick. I have one kitted out fpr XB autocross and its a blast
I have an e30 i would love to add an e36 but i should finish the e30 first lol
I was hoping for 220 ish but on 6 pounds this will be a perfect reliable daily
Turbo an older 2.3L Ranger (or a 4.0L). The Rangers had a 5R55E (or M if you can find one) transmission that was rated for 550 lb-ft torque. The 4.0L only produced 238 lb-ft, so you have some room to spare.
Just lost my fit last week on Friday in a rain storm, after 6 years of driving it I finally hydroplaned straight into the median barrier and totaled it.. seeing this still brings me joy, I always had plans of turboing it just never got all of the funds together, love the vids man, especially the fit ones.
i really like the intro with the drone and everything going backwards it looked really good
Gingium is proof any car can be fun.
Editing looks so premium! I appreciate the work you put into it
TURBO LS400 🔥
That is awesome. Perfect for the streets and spirited cruises
I think it was a super cool touch having all your friends doing a ridealong getting their reaction, I was smiling the whole time!
In Poland we have a few e36/e46 builds with 1.6 m43 engine with 1.8t audi/vag intake. It makes simillar power to 330i
Also IS200 1gfe with equal lenght manifold would be nice, sounds like 2f2f skyline r34
I love this series as well! And I would love to see a twin turbo rear mount setup on SOMETHING you build, I don't care what it is, but some twin rear mount turbos would be awesome
i love this series, im also considering getting a honda fit soon because of you
Who else thinks this sounds like an evo ?? Well done Gingium, really loved the Jazz turbo videos 😍
This video is like watching a beginner motorcycle rider go from a 300cc sportbike to a 400cc sportbike hha
I’ve owned some fast cars before. The Honda fit is by far the most fun car I have driven. I absolutely love my GD3 sport 5mt. I’m planning on throwing a turbo on it in the near future ✌️
Golf VR6 , turbo them... holy moly thats best sounds ever ❤
Low HP and light cars are the funnest to drive. My 9-3 turbo is stock, but makes all the right noises and handles great.
I can't imagine an GD with that much power lol, this is an awesome daily build. The turbo and L15 sound incredible
I love the Honda fits man they're awesome especially this one it sounds like a rattlesnake on deceleration
It will be a happy day when my Fit sounds the same, awesome work man.
I want to see a turboed enormous SUV like an Escalade or V10 Excursion.
I manual swapped a Lincoln Navigator and always had plans to supercharge it, but I sold it when I moved. It was enormous fun at drift events!
Those are some pretty great turbo noises!
Wanted one for these cars for years. Covid prices ruined it for me. So I bought an 03 SVT Focus for 3750. Zero regrets, love driving it so much. But still want a Fit for the economy one day.
next turbo a tesla
I absolutely love how well you built this car, so that it is an enjoyable daily that still sounds amazing when you want it to. Hopefully the good sounds don't make you drive this car hard as a daily lol.
This makes me even more excited to get my GT2554R on my Fit, turbo noises are the best.
When we talked about your turbo, I knew that this GT2860 would be slightly oversized for this engine but I completely understand why you used it to keep the rods in the block. From what I've seen the 2554 is much more responsive, but I am a little worried about not making any windows in my block (although I do have a spare engine).
Also super cool to see my sticker on your car!
This is actually a 2560! So in between the 2554 and 2860. Definitely a bit laggy but super responsive compared to some other turbo engines I’ve driven lol. Good luck on yours! Electronic boost control would be very helpful on these.
@@_Gingium_ That's right, I forgot you had said 2560.
I'm actually really considering doing a boost controller/boost gauge combo like the AEM unit to be able to ramp the boost in appropriately and make the tune safer. I'd also like to do a flex fuel setup, but I haven't dug too deep into what that would take with the Flashpro yet.
Keep wrenching on this thing, maybe run thru really simple (but tedious) stuff like wire tucking, polishing an intake manifold to make it look better, just doing like stuff that makes a build a real build. Lots of people afraid of wiring, lots of people act like polishing aluminum is more work than it’s worth. I like your channel because it makes really complex projects achievable because you’re just a guy, doing this mostly by yourself. In a place you found and made it work, for yourself! Across the country too. That’s fearless my dude! A lot of people just can’t get out of their own way, and any OG followers watched you do it.
Personally I just picked those two things (the wiring, the polishing) because I don’t think there’s a lot of cost involved it’s just that people are too intimidated to dive into that stuff, there’s not a ton of quality video content (like yours) on how to do it and it’s kind of in your lane of just diving in and tackling. If that makes sense.
1:48 and I thought tile puzzle games didn't exist in the real world😅
I remember playing those games on my moms old blackberry while at the doctors when I was super young. I miss 2007-2011.
The second you said LS400 I was hooked. I would love to see you build a street/VIP/Monster sleeper of a Turbo UZ (Again I guess) but with the Lexus flair. Plus UZ’s just sound so good and its not a common build
Great video! Turbo super high mile ls400 would be really enjoyable too!
I built myself a supercharged daily driver. I like the turbo fit. 👍
Turbo LS400 would be gnarly
9:06 dude 😎 last video I complained about this subject and here you are!
I appreciate it 🙏🤞🥲
It's a little car, that's a good amount of power to make it fun.
If it blows up id reccomend swapping in a stock k20a3, it makes the exact power youre going for
Would love to see you turbo an IS250. Nobody touches the 4GR-FSE but it has potential! They're semi-forged from factory and are high compression too. Easily get 350hp!
They have a longer stroke than the 2gr so nobody takes them seriously
What about an E30 track car to compliment your drag cars? Cage, twin? turbo, weight reduction, aero, diff upgrades, suspension, etc. You could do lap time comparisons at say Road Atlanta between each stage of the build too to see what gives you the best time improvements. Set a target, 25% reduction in lap time compared to the stock car.
You should be an absolute menace and turbo a Dodge Caravan! 7 seats plus BOOOOOOOOST!
Gotta do a 3 row SUV for RWD drift party action!
All the High horsepower Builds on youtube have ruined me, I immediately thought "Mhh now rods and pistons and headstuds and mo...ore boost" but this is perfect as it is for a daily driver.
Man the L15 is great sounding motor… I daily a wrx and want to start daily driving a Fit😂
E36 sounds sick, I´m on my 3rd after 2 miatas. great cars, fun to build them
Holy turbo surge Batman!
That thing is about to die.
That thing is about to die = probably last 20+ years doing it.
Firstof all, I Iove your Videos! Since the Day I saw your Drag Racing with your Volvo Sleeper I fell in Love with your Creativity of your Builds. Not to mention how well build every Car is 💯
I´m curios, have you ever seen or even drove a modified Honda FR-V, I found Turbo Kits for it but have found near to nothing about.
I found the Model per Accident and immediately thought, this could be a awesome Project Car with so much potential.
Anyway love your Channel and seeing you so excited and happy gives me a smile evertime ☺
Being that Caleb is a Mighty Car Mods fan according to his music tests, I think it is safe to say that "his car goes pshh-pshh" now...
A turbo minitruck or something like an old Vitara/RAV4 etc would be so sick!
Cant emphasize how clean that into is, no matter how many times I see it
The turbo won’t destroy itself. Any modern ball bearing turbo doesn’t need a bov
This cahnnel is turning slowly to a honda channel ❤ love it hopefully you get the boostedboiz for the beat build? 😊
Gingium posted :0 GOBLESS
I wanna build a turbo yaris. A turbo Yaris would be SO sick
A turbo 2.3 ford would be cool. It’s an underrated platform with a very low entry price
I love that your not babying it an giving it some stink. Your hard works paid off! Are you going to change out the ecu at all and give it some more fuel.... cage and go racing....
You guys live in a lovely part of America, cool project 👌🏼.
I've thought about this a few time, getting a Fit and throwing a turbo at it and see what it would do. 6.6s is pretty good ngl.
love to see your take on a e36 turbo :)
A LS400/Celsior build series in the style of Bippo/VIP Executive would be sick.
What a sick car!
1:50 is that a Honda element truck?
Loved this series. Great exhaust sounds too.
Hope you are still enjoying our Shifter!
Please keep us updated sir! I'm hell-bent on doing a Kswap on my GE, but this possibility has extremely piqued my interest, especially since it's about $5,000 cheaper than doing a Kswap. I just wanna see how this holds up over time. Cheers!
I know you just got the Honda Beat, but man would I love to watch you build a Del Sol! Maybe even revisit fabium and make it mid engine?!
I don't know how difficult it is to get a fiesta street out there But it would be amazing to see one with a turbo, it would be
Man that sounds so good
Next time on the Gingium youtube channel: First Ever Turbo Beat In The US!! (Sounds amazing)
Need some pure under the hood exhaust sound? That would be my New Ringtone 😀
What happened to the passenger fender? Was it always so banged up?
Dude turbo a 4cyl 5 speed ranger, you would not regret the sound of that 2.3l lima
E36 NEXT PLEASE
love the stuff keep it up brother
Thats really dope and incredibly inspiring 💯💯 need a ripper like this
I know that kind of defeats the purpose, but would be cool if you swap it to a B or even a K series. Love the videos :)
I hope aftermarket companies pickup on how the fit/jazz communities are dying for more FI options.
Specifically Rotrex so they produce the sc again.
i´d love to see you turbo an old 302 V8, like an f150 or something cheap like that
MY MAN! you should R18 swap it! They make 300 HP easily and you can pull them out of junk yards for $300 all day.
Would love to see a basic piston, rod, head stud build go into the fit and let that kit you built EAT
These l15's have such small rod bolts it's not exactly worth it
I feel so bad, bruh…I’m all in the way at the dyno at had no idea 😂
2:10 he's right!
on car like this speed is not the point
the noise, the engagement and fun are the important things
even the wheel hop in things like this i thing is cool lol
Had a civic with the same engine always wondered what it’d be like with a turbo
