This guy needs our respect. He mounted the entire assembly on the supra, then realized that he hadn’t said goodbye to his audience properly, removed all that stuff and put them on a table just to thank them for watching.
Always. I just wish Steph had special funding just to come up with more YT content! It’s easily one of my top 3 automotive/fabbing channels, but since Steph is so busy and this isn’t a source of income for his operation it doesn’t pay for him to put out much content. It sure makes the content he DOES put up YT GOLD!
I love every single one of these videos and eagerly await each new one. Which is funny, because I have utterly zero interest in drifting (no offense to anyone, it's just not my thing, sorry) and as a motorcyclist, only a slight interest in cars. These vids and the calm, cool, explanation of the intricacies involved by this professional, keep me totally absorbed and amazed!
I have a high German degree in mechanical engineering and always learn something from Papadakis' videos. Never heard of just creating an O-ring as needed but that's brilliant!

Really slick design on varying the volume of the plenum.......can be changed in a matter of minutes to match track conditions. Truly awesome application.......same with the throttle body spacers. Can hardly wait to see this dynoed and raced.
I did not think that was going to be that interesting but it was. It goes to show how good you are at making videos, no BS, no tattoos, no attitude. 👍🇭🇲
Looks awesome. The straight logs like that always have a couple cylinders that suffer. If you kick the angle of the throttle opening directs the high speed air into the top of the plenum it helps with distribution. Example Holley hi-ram
I get that the video has a 99.5% positive rating... BUT WHO DOWNVOTES THIS?? This is pure innovation, explanation, and execution from an automotive legend!
Wow, that looks immense, I especially like the spacers for potential larger capacity plenum and the fact it can easily be done so you can test on the dyno
Hey Stephan! I love your videos. Straight to the point with lots of knowledge. I love how you don’t drag your videos like other UA-camr. Please keep it up
Thank you very much for this video. I'm designing and building some plenums right now, and this makes a huge difference. Have never heard of viton cord stock, matching plenum size to the displacement, or many other details.
You could make a 3D printed jig to get consistent lengths on your o-ring lengths. I have made jigs for CF tubes, it saves a lot of time not having to measure them out if you have to make a lot of them.
Jesus that plenum spacer testing trick is God damn genius. I wonder if any gaskets are needed between to ensure a safe power. However that cnc stuff looks incredible and probably holds the power 😯😯
For fasteners smaller than 5mm or 1/4" you should use Loctite 222 (pink). Loctite 242 (blue) is medium strength, so small diameter fasteners may shear off when they are removed.
i like vdeos like this. showing things like this are very interesting and you can motivate some peaple do some sick build with knowledge you show us here.

Did you know you can edit videos?
@@OTechnology Did you know you can have a sense of humor?
@@TheXeago i genuinely thought you and the others giving a thumbs up were serious lol
@@OTechnology Well that's Poe's law i guess
Hey id love to see more of what goes into designing and making a part like this! Super cool. Thanks for sharing.
I second this
good coffee, solidworks and flow simulation 😉
There was definitely an earlier video where they prototype it and then mill the billet!

Jeez! Your level of perfection, and skill never ceases to amaze me.
It is really satisfying watching something get made by a very knowledgeable perfectionist with a budget that matches the perfectionism.
This dude is the driving force behind perfection! Keep it up!
Love the velocity radius plate for capturing the plenum plate bolts, really great idea!
thats one of those ideas only vast experience would deliver
2:13 that was a most satisfying noise, when it just fits so well

love this channel so much! tons of knowledge and straight to the point. can you make a video someday on matching up turbo sizes to engine sizes?
Go to Stavtech youtube/facebook page and watch/read up. Engine size is a small part of deciding what turbo to use.
The attention to detail and being able to watch him explain it all as he is working is just amazing! Great job mate love it!
variable plenum size is such a cool feature. You guys are so innovative and its super cool that you are willing to share this kind of stuff!
No stops or pauses, video continuously pumps out information. Perfect content.
I still can’t believe that we are getting “ALL” this information for “FREE” !!!! Love you bro! Your a Gee!!!

Art. The concealed runner bolts are a good example of how much thought these guys put in to these designs. Really really nice engineering.
Love the design , no welding required and all bolted assembly.
FINALLY!!!
wait a minute...
6 MINUTES!? ahh... that's fine I guess...
They really gotta fix their upload schedule
Finally they made a new video
@@lloyd9435 with papadakis UA-cam is almost last thing he worries about he has to manage a team build and repair the cars

Stefan Papdakis, the gift that keeps on giving. Brilliant work every time!
As a mechanical engineer, watching your solutions and your design decisions is always fascinating!
Papadakis, you are the true definition of Guru. May you live long 💯
Congrats on the win last event!!!
Love the volume spacer idea and how modular it is. Very well thought out design!

Stephen, you got the coolest job in the world man.
Damn, kts been a while, Welcome back
Bro. That O-ring trick is most important thing I've seen in years. Great idea!
everything seemed very standard to me, which trick were you talking about? maybe I missed it.

Papadakis definitely puts quality over quantity and I appreciate that because this are damn fine videos don’t care how long they are
I allready put a like since i know the video is going to be awsome
Haha! Same here man!
Loved that bolt securing detail!
I love your videos! It’s very informative and goes to the basics so even noobs can understand what’s going on. Thanks :)
I don't care if the videos are few and far between, the quality is always excellent!
dat knowledge.... just amazing
Wish i could hit like more than once. Please more of this stuff!! This chanel is the best on UA-cam!!!
I presume I have got OCD, cause this build make me calm and comfortable :) Grate job!
wow love the Engineering behind this Build..
Thank you for taking the time to put these videos together. I'm sure this de-mystifies the building/manufacturing process and inspires many!
SP is genius when it comes to this stuff
Hey Stephan! I love your videos. Straight to the point with lots of knowledge. I love how you don’t drag your videos like other UA-camr. Please keep it up
need to see more more more... like 5 times daily would be a start Mike !
A genius that shares his knowledge. That's rare these days.
2:12 that noise🤤
you are a legend all you do is very special and you have your own character all wishes for success always

The way of tuning its awesome. Sick.
HELLO FROM GREECE THE BEST TEAM PAPADAKIS RACING!!!!!!!
Such clear and clever engineering. Interesting about the superglued gaskets 👍
B58 Engine is in this winning Car 💯💪
I LOVE this type of stuff. Well done
Papadakis Racing :)
Thumbs up,professor stephan papadakis..👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Steph, you're an engineering marvel......
I really love to see a dyno run w/o spacer and a other one with spacer.
When something is done just right... Love it
Man I love your videos. The best videos on this kind of content I've seen. Period.

Beautifully machined pieces. Thank you for showing us.

Thanks for sharing more behind the scenes Stephan! Would be really interested to hear the results of the different plenum sizes on the dyno too :)
same
I love these technical videos
I love your videos! The ingenuity, creativity and forethought is always superb. Thanks!
First time i hear about plenum spacers, respect!
For fasteners smaller than 5mm or 1/4" you should use Loctite 222 (pink). Loctite 242 (blue) is medium strength, so small diameter fasteners may shear off when they are removed.
Thank you Mr Papadakis for sharing the knowledge ,keep it up !
That’s a whole lotta work! You definitely have a creative mind
Thanks for the tip on the o-ring cord stock / superglue!
Man, you give me the inspiration to work harder to make my Supra more badass! Keep it up!
Absolutely wonderful as always
i like vdeos like this. showing things like this are very interesting and you can motivate some peaple do some sick build with knowledge you show us here.
great value mr clean out here doin work BABY
wow, i just found this channel and im so glad i did
Man the Supra is looking so good!
Can’t wait to see it back on the track🔥
As always love the thoughtfulness that goes into every part
Keep the great videos coming!
congrats on the latest win
Love, love, love, this channel. 🤓 So much great content.
Love the idea of the spacers to experiment with size!
Cool assembly! Great design job
Your work is art.
2:00 , 3:45 Genius!!
Absolutely loving every video.
Always learn something new. That viton noodle looks interesting but I'm sure making your own o-rings would get old fast.
Freaking love you guys!
Really kicking butt this season!
Awesome vid man! Beautiful parts. Cool to see how you work with O rings, too
I would like to see it polished. Not necessary but the manifold looks like art, may as well give it that finishing touch IMHO.
Awesome build process, great video as usual. Can’t wait to see it back in action soon
500k subscribers? Wow, I remember when I joined at 40k. Still deserves more subs!
I just learned the o-ring trick and next day I need ed it for my HPA tank high pressure regulator and it worked😝
order some Papadakis Racing custom hand built O-rings! saw that yellow bee take a podium! good job!
Thank you for the tips and inside information Mr Papadaki !
You're an amazing source of knowledge Stephan! thank you for all the effort of showing these videos!
I can watch videos like this 24/7
A man truly dedicated to his craft.
Work of art
Damn that's some 1000iq manifold design
Great video guys you should put these custom components on the market i have a m140i and all this stuff should work it would fly out
