INSTALLING The BIG 50HP+ Turbo On My OLD Saturn Sky Redline *UPDATE*
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 мар 2021
- I bought a 2007 Saturn Sky Redline for $4,500 a couple years ago. Gabe bought it after that and has been daily driving it since. The turbo decided it didn't want to keep doing spinny magic after that, so he bought a kit to upgrade it along with everything to install it (well sort of). RPM Motorsports is updating the kit to include some or possibly all of the gaskets needed for the install so you'll want to decided what all you need for your install. It likely won't be all of these parts. Huge shoutout to them for listening to our feedback and trying to make this easier for the end user. Should be smooth sailing for you!

that's very good of the company to look and listen and do changes - well done to them
Bro you're doing us GXP/Redline owners a huge favor by doing this and getting RPM to fix their kit. Mad props bro
I love the 2021 version of commerce. Influencers influence and suppliers are smart enough to listen. Thanks for having the balls to call it like you see it. And thanks to RPM for being responsive. It’s a win for everyone!
He said balls,....yum
thats good at least they saw your video and took some notes.
Should charge them engineering rates
Explanation at the beginning confirmed my sanity after being confused by my notifications 😅
Last time I was this early couldn't find an exhaust gasket
As someone who has worked in news for nearly 2 decades. It has always frustrated me how a company will do something to someone and then refuse to work with them to fix it. Then they call the news and we do a story calling attention to the problem. All of a sudden everyone is working with each other.
you see how much we love you guys, we will rewatch yesterdays video... Thanks to RPM for listening to its customers.
after what happened with Westen I definitely don't blame you for getting the big security doors to try and keep people who don't belong out of your warehouse/shop
What happened to him?
@@CR7659 he got robbed
@@Julian-do7bv Well I mean that seems kind of obvious...
@@CR7659 maybe try google? or is that also kind of obvious?
@@lefttea I don't care about it enough to go to Google, I thought someone would give more than a three word answer in reply with a few more details about it.
Very nice and professional that the company responded positively and will upgrade and complete the kit.
👍🏽 Gabe rocks cool tshirt once again.
Took them a RUclipsr to get them to add some gaskets 🤦🏻♂️
300K!!! It is about time. Keep up the great work!!
Congratulations on 300k!! 🎉🎉
Look at Kansas Autoplatz filling up with projects, almost looks like Wizards. Then there is Gabe, never ending project 🤣 Even brought in Jake
Forget everything else. The highlight for me was the sound from the GTO V8. Pure magic 😀
A cameo of all my fav OGs! Gabe, Josh, Jake! My life is complete!
Glad to see Gabe, your friends are one of the best parts of your channel. Josh is a magician. Gabe has all-time best T-shirts !!
🍻😁👍🏼
A company that actually listens! Wow, do you think they could talk to my wife about her listening?
LOL! As it turns out, I am a marriage and family therapist...
@@Gabe-ABNCW3 ROFL 🤣, you definitely need to be in more videos!
WOW, Interactive RUclips videos....sorta. Nice! Cool to know the company was watching and listening and then ACTED on it!!
Something about him is like.... soothing. Very calming car work
Congratulations on reaching 300k subscribers.🔥👊👏
That is great to hear that they are improving the kit. Glad they took constructive criticism the correct way.
2 years ago, man I've been watching JRG for along time 🤯
Good on RPM for making this right, not just for Gabe but future customers as well.
Congrats on 300k JR, 500k right around the corner.
My sister has one of those cars. She has serviced it religiously and it has almost 200,000 California highway miles on it. It's been a great car for her and it's surprisingly quick too. Hers is Sunburst Yellow and you can see that thing coming from a mile away.
I have to admit that after watching that 1st video I was thinking; oh-oh (It was posted to a few different FB Kappa Groups). So it's good to know that a positive outcome took place over your feedback. The Kappa community is very small compared to more popular enthusiast vehicles, so we really need the help of vendors that continue to support our platform.
Drove by shop on way home as I always do. Saw door open and thought JR'S in there! Lol. But can't be that guy who just walks up lol. The caddy said hello 😆 btw
Middle of the day upload! Nice!
"Original and Extra-Crispy" Gabe has the best lines too : )
Hell yeah its back up! Different kind of car, different kind of company! 😁😁🚀🚀
A roofing company should have copper flashing in 12" wide rolls and could cut you off a
foot. That might be worth checking out if you need to make a copper gasket in the future.
Another good video as always.
Thanks for those links to the parts!
I think that was the only video I didn't watch of yours. Sweet!
I don't know about everyone else but I'd like to see a full send with the draggy on the Sky now. In Mexico of course.
🌮🌮🌮
Taco Tuesday
Congrats on 300k!
Respect to them, wish more companies listened
After they got called out
JR and Gabe are hilarious with all their silly inside jokes and stuff.
🍻😁👍🏼
quid pro quo, they took your criticism, and acted on it, they corrected your video you played fair and updated, well done.
Great Job RPM.
I am looking forward to seeing the warehouse floor and balcony building content.
Finally more Gabe content...er ugh...I mean Saturn Redline turbo update installation video thingys. LOL.
😂🍻
This video is full of gems
Drop by Albuquerque on your way, it’s fun here, we have... meth.
Someone in my neighborhood was selling what appears to the same Redline and I really considered buying it but he wanted all the money plus so I just had to walk away. Now I see Gabe cruising around and really wish I bought it.
Keep looking. They really are terrific cars!
Excellent. Great news. Sorry for having to redo it, but it's important to be fair to vendors when they respond to criticism.
Gabe practicing his TV spokesperson skillz...
Nice update
It’s like deja vu this channel 😆
You're going to be in PHX tomorrow??? That sucks! I have to work. Keep up the great vids!!!!!
Good on you editing and clarifying illegitimate brother of mine.
Haha, my man 🙏
thanks so much ;big help.👍👍👍
John you doit great for ather buyers to the kit 👍
Hell yeah brother
Nice tour, Kansas World Of Wheels is shaping up. Did we upgrade to turbo diesel fresh from a newer F250? Welcome back Jake, and love the old Pontiac.
Congrats on getting a good change through your video. Bet they were jumping at the chance to improve and delete those clips, since a ton of folks follow you.
Yayyy Gaskets!
Does the cruise control work on that xTerra? It went out on my old QX4...apparently it's an issue with a solenoid that fails. Never had this happen with another vehicle.
John, ever thought of doing an apartment build inside your warehouse similar to the hanger in some of Tyler's videos? You could save a fortune by not having the house mortgage, or do you prefer to have the property as investment?
He's said several times that he can't live there
The shop would have to be rezoned to mixed use.
Land of the free, eh? Okay thanks.
I'm already sold on the idea of building living quarters inside a commercial/industrial unit. I'll just keep it quiet and not seek the approval of some statist bureaucrat.
Wow, you guys actually made a difference! It's just weird that RPM didn't do that from the beginning. And DDM, see ya!
The power of the internet. Cool.
In the right hands it’s powers can be used for unlimited good...😉👍🏼
Phoenix on Friday? I'll wave at you as you land from the shores of South Mountain, lol.
I like the Karate Kid shirt your buddy Gabe is wearing in your video
300k subs 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Well, I'd call that a success. Company is a bit mediocre. Company gets called out. Company responds with a significant upgrade. New users benefit.
Win!
Wait! Where are you going to be on Friday? I'm in the Phoenix area!
How does the factory-issued engine accomodate this add-on? I would be concerned about heat and residual heat generated by the turbo system.
What is different? Have you done a retake with different parts?
Going to to warm here in Phoenix this weekend.
It’s “warm” in Phoenix EVERY weekend!!😂🤣
Do I have to lift the engine 3" to be able to take out the Catalytic converter.
Gabe, auditioning for a recurring segment in the WatchJRGo franchise.... Would be cool actually.... with a helping of Gabe's dry humour......
LOL... I’ve been here for years!
Damn man you're gonna be in Phoenix just in time for the first hot days of the year. Wear something comfortable
JR GO is the SH$T!!!!
#JR Changes The World!!!
Where and how long are you going to be in Phoenix?
Any time for the Phoenix chapter of Watch JRGOo fan club to get a meet and greet?
wonder when JR going to get a rolling road for the shop
That would be awesome! All these trips to Mexico for testing are wearing me out!
i Have an 08 Sky Redline. Stock Turbo I did 296 to the Wheels and 353 Tq.
My favorite Gabe joke at 10:40 😂
🍻😉👍🏼
While in Phoenix, hit up Ta Carbon. Best legit tacos in town. In the ghetto but worth it!
Found a Saturn Sky Red line in North Carolina (manual) in North Carolina with 42k
Need some time off work to make the deal.... I'll install the same kit.
Thank you.
What was the purple car in the background
I’m waiting for Gabe’s Opel GT. What going on with it?
It’s still on the rotisserie. Gonna hit it hard this summer.
Saw some talk about this on the Forum...
Jr making changes...simply beautiful 🥲
Nice ride but what's going on with the Opel GT?
Still in the garage! LOL!
@@Gabe-ABNCW3 I sure hope you do a series when the work on it begins!
Are you going to cameo on AAR on the way to Phoenix? You called during his latest Copart walkaround.
Clamps!
Gabe!
I was hoping the update would show you ripping on it a bit. Still doesn't though :(
Also Jake has some good rhythm
Listen closely to the moments before and you can hear us beatboxing to the ticking sound.
@@Gabe-ABNCW3 Is there anything you guys can't do?
@@kgb4187 .... that’s a really good question... 🤔🤔🤔
Sooooo final verdict ?
I’m confused. If you need the whole shopping list and they ‘fixed the kit’ did they add everything you guys put on the list or just the one copper gasket you needed and had to make.
Great question! We assume it means that they include ALL gaskets and o rings. Don’t know for certain, though.
Am I the only one who saw this & thought it was an April Fool's gag???
Where can we get shirts like Gabe's?
LOL! Great question! A lot of the companies I bought from are out of business now.
Can i buy your stock intercooler
Hopefully Gabe got a free turbo kit for having to do a re edit
Probably I was living under rock I didn’t know those Pontiac’s had ecotec turbo
They have two engine platforms- the 2.0 turbo (LNF) and the 2.4 NA (LNK?).
It blew up!!!
It did not lol 😂
@@WatchJRGo good to know 😂
Three Fitty !!!!
Daggum Loch Ness Monster!!!!
Is this a new camera? It looks better today
Nah, just cleaned the lens...😉
