Sorry this happened...that's a bummer and I'm sure can be discouraging. You do a great job on your videos and make it happen without a big fancy garage. What did you finally do with the engine?
my skys engine idles somewhat the exact same from what i heard in your clip in 11:46, do you think that might have been some knock or is is it just lifter and slaps , i am now paranoid and wondering if i should get it checked out
@@REALETH3REAL I don't think so as the more I've read this usually only happens when you tune the car and raise the rev limit form 6200 to 6800 and there can be valve float above 6500 which is what can cause this.
A turbo is an air compressor. They increase the amount of air into your engine which allows more fuel. This creates more power. His turbo was shot and needed replacement
@Richard Myers it's not a bigger turbo. It's a larger wheel and slight upgrades from the stock k04. It's still a k04. These big wheel upgrades just require a tune. It's only about 50-70 more hp from the factory starting point. With other upgrades they're closer to 100hp more.

@@alexchavez1011 oh okay I been wanting the sky for the long time and planned on getting the redline, do you think this is a purchase killer?

R.I.P ✊😔
Ls swap?
Unfortunately not in the budget
@@alexchavez1011 Understandable. I enjoyed your videos on the sky . Such a niche car barely any content on it. I hope the best for you and the sky!
@@t.a-8469 thanks glad you enjoyed the content. I'll be diving into the problem to see what can be done
This is muy mal
It is
What is a 'tubro'. Why are people wrecking perfectly functioning cars that already have adequate power?

@@tim300wsm sounds like he went with a bigger turbo without upgrading the engine to handle it

@@fortysixandtwo34 "slightly upgrade" the pistons are cast aluminum. The GM Ecotec book recommends forged pistons for 300 hp and up.
@Richard Myers re-read what I posted. If I know what a big wheel upgrade is...chances are I know what the next would be after that...
