i've learned more from this video than i have in 20 years. Having never had access to tools and ramps etc i've always paid other to do the work. Wish i could start all over again! very informative Adam cheers 👍
Ron will give you $$ for that turbo! Nice tip on coolant reservoir, HEY I have that electric angle grinder, used it when I installed the last turbo that was recalled by the vendor, took me less than 5m with that 15$ grinder, thnx for videos cant wait to hear it!!
Just search #TrashFiesta On Facebook or Instagram and you’ll find all the results and post. Also there is a video on my channel of the car after the install.
@AdamBrunson Priming the turbo. Just accel/clutch in start let it prime through a few passes or are you actually manually cranking the engine over, getting fluid out the supply line, then through turbo blah blah like TT states.
i have a 2014 fiesta st and i noticed the coolant resovoir has a housing next to it, not the same set up as yours, im curious on how i would hook up the lines to the turbo.
What is the inlet size on the turbo? I have a 2J intake that I’ll eventually install with this turbo assuming it’ll work. Thank you for making these videos. I’ve been eyeing this turbo for a while and I’m looking forward to seeing your results
If you watch the full video, you will see the modification that needs to be done. Anything that can grind aluminum will work. You can't grind with a cutting disk.
I’m going to use 93 pump gas and will use aux fuel if I get the s280 but won’t if I get the hybrid (not needed, unless u think it would help). Although which do u think is better setup for only running 93
@@AdamBrunson Great! I'll get you a log tomorrow. You've got it limited to 5psi, but it's spooling quick as hell and making great torque for such low boost. I can already tell it's going to be a beast!
@@AdamBrunson I had some lines reversed, but after correcting the issue it still didn't hit more than 15psi today. WGDC didn't go over 42%, so I'm assuming you've got it limited. Love the quick spool as it's literally hitting the same boost numbers as my GT2860RS with new cartridge a full 1K RPM's sooner. Definitely a night and day difference! Very happy so far!

@Ty Lane Definitely, I've been watching on Instaflixxer for months myself :D
DUDE RADDDD VIDEO. i just ordered an S280 this is super super helpful thank you man!
I ordered mine a month ago too

pro tip: when you get ur tools from Harbor Freight make sure to always get two for when the first one doesn't work.
meant to comment a while ago but really would have been cool to see how the fiesta performs after the s280 upgrade

It is possible to remove the exhaust manifold of an S280 without removing the turbo?

in a pinch you could double nut the studs
Where’s part 3? I need it lol
Interesting that that my 2015 oil drain line is not all metal but a rubber hose with a heat sleeve on it.
That’s not stock.
as far as the bov goes, what if i’m use the cp-e exhale kit? I don’t have the stock diverter valve anymore
Ported Exhaust manifold a good idea? Or necessary ?

It will work, though I hate 2J intakes lol.
@@AdamBrunson which Intake would you recommend for this turbo?
i just ordered a s280, how long would you guess it would take to install, without removing the subframe?
what about a dremmel with a cutting disk?
If you watch the full video, you will see the modification that needs to be done. Anything that can grind aluminum will work. You can't grind with a cutting disk.
Question, for a turbosmart bov do i connect the vent line to the turbosmart right? If so can i close the bov adapter nipple?
Stock or aftermarket?
Im running that BOV on stock turbo, closed off nipple.
If I want to stick to 93 pump gas and maybe aux fuel idk yet, should I go whoosh hybrid or s280
I’m going to use 93 pump gas and will use aux fuel if I get the s280 but won’t if I get the hybrid (not needed, unless u think it would help). Although which do u think is better setup for only running 93
Just finishing up the install and wondering if it matters which hose I run to the coolant reservoir, the upper or lower port on the turbo?
Anthony wheelus it does not.
@@AdamBrunson Great! I'll get you a log tomorrow. You've got it limited to 5psi, but it's spooling quick as hell and making great torque for such low boost. I can already tell it's going to be a beast!
Anthony wheelus it’s not limited to 5psi. You have a boost leak or something isn’t hooked up correctly.
@@AdamBrunson I'll dig into it tomorrow and see what I find. Thanks

Random question, where'd you pick that drain pan up at? Haven't seen one like that before
Amazon
What tools did you tighten the top 2 oil drain line bolts ?
Nasario ST PAPi it’s Torx.
How much do you charge for this install?
*ripped out and trashed both heat shields when doing downpipe install* Umm.. what heat shields..?
Me too f them heat shields lol
@@midnight347 I mean if you've got a decent tuner, like Adam, heat management doesn't really become a concern
I challenge you to do this same turbo swap without removing the subframe
Challenge not excepted. Why do something that takes longer when there is a clear easier way being outlined in the video.
its not all that hard to put it in from the top. that's what we did on my buddies FiST
Any turbo priming ?
nasa moonman hold clutch and accelerator pedal to floor and crank engine over 3 times. Done.
Part 3??
The install is finished, so no part 3.
AdamBrunson no dyno numbers or pulls? Was hoping to see your results. Looking at this turbo and the x57
