Fixing this s**t show of an engine bay 👉🏼 Recap! 🫣
-
What was happening in the engine way? 👇🏽
There has been a few things in this engine bay that have made me question why do people half ass things when it comes to cars?! 🫣
For instance to give you a picture, the top mount intercooler when I bought it was just sitting on top of the rocker cover just being held on by the silicone piping.
So as you drove it would bounce around!
It also wasn’t sitting close or placed properly to seal to the bonnet scoop it had! 🫠
It also didn’t have a proper air filter setup which I quickly removed and replaced.
Then I had some gremlins which needing sorting one major component was the old turbo was pushing oil through the seals so I removed the exhaust manifold, gave that a makeover and bought a new 18G to replace it.
I then also had some fueling issues which turned out to be my fuel pump as it was blowing white smoke and sucking in air. So I chose to buy and upgrade to Built 11mm pump, and also went and redid my injectors while I was at it!
Once those were in, diesel pump also gave him a tune up and safely came out healthy and running 210hp!

🔥 Kinugawa Ball Bearing 15T — Dyno Tested vs DR750, 3SX Executioners & IPS 19T
We put the Kinugawa TD04 15T through its paces on a stock 1991 Mitsubishi Stealth TT running 93 octane pump gas. The results speak for themselves:
• 413whp / 410wtq at 19–20psi
• Full boost by 3,000rpm — 500rpm faster than every other TD04 tested
• 25+ hp and 50+ tq advantage over all journal bearing TD04s between 2,500–3,500rpm
• First and only ball bearing, stock-frame, drop-in replacement for the 3000GT/Stealth
Ball bearing turbos spool faster, handle higher back pressures, and last longer — especially under hard driving conditions.
