  • Matt Ochoa has spent every dime he has from flipping burgers at In-N-Out on his turbocharged GMC Canyon pickup truck, turning an otherwise humble work vehicle into a quarter-mile monster. So when we called sport trucks "hilariously useless," he took personal offense and offered us a chance at redemption. Will the Canyon change our mind about sport trucks? Let's find out.

    Wow, 100k views. I never thought when I started digging this money pit that I would ever get such a response.
    A huge thank you to Zach, Thad and Matt for making this possible. And also a big thank you to everyone who has sat through this video. You guys are amazing.

      Dazdso Working with a friend to turn the 4L60 into a sequential box. After that, who knows. Probably an obscene amount of power, new seats, and a 4-point roll bar.

      thyringmaster They CAN smoke a manny when properly built, but generally speaking, the 4LXX are dogs. When they're tuned and built right, they're strong as hell and have OK shift times, but the stock trans with just basic stuff like servos and a tune is a dog.

      It was a free truck, and he chose to make it a decent looking but deceptively fast truck. And, it'll haul bikes out to the Baja, couches, and ass(if so requested), all weekend long.

    Dude was very humble, I love that he did something a little different than most people would. People criticize and say he should have gotten a lightweight car and done this, but the fact that it' s a damn pickup truck and it can run 12's probably brings him more satisfaction than any lightweight car would.

  • @raeshaunroman
    @raeshaunroman 10 лет назад +3

    I think of the truck as a modern reincarnation of a Syclone, I like it. And honestly I thought about a Colorado as my first car but I didn't have any use for a truck. And honestly if he's getting 20+ mpg from his little canyon then his gas mileage is comparable to that of my 99 SC300, from my point of view I really like that he went off the deep end with his build and made the best out of what he has, but hey, I'm just a 16 yr old with my 0.02 ..

    A rearmount Turbo I5 running, basically low 12's, 335hp/330tq? I'm impressed. So it's an auto, so it's a truck, so it's not a bay turbo. It's basically a one of a kind awesome.

      @XxXDOMINIONXxX 10 лет назад +1

      i dont see how this thing is running low 12's with only 335 whp and 3600 lbs of weight. I am going to say BS on the HP numbers. theres no way that truck is running low 12.s when a 5.0 mustang with 380 whp on drag radials runs low 12's and only 3400 lbs. It has to be making more than 335 whp.

    • @RobertJensen313
      @RobertJensen313 10 лет назад +1

      DOMINION PIE The Canyon weights in at about 35-3600 lbs. gross, where the Mustang weights in between 36-3800. Like Matt said, on shotty lanes and road tires it does high 12's. Being that it's an auto, it's going to shift faster. With the lag, I can see it doing low 12's easy with a flat, straight lane and slicks.

  • @Spearfisher1970
    @Spearfisher1970 10 лет назад +9

    I've been one of Matt's critics, but I think he did well this time. This is 'Americana' as it gets these days, and reminds me of the hot-rodders of the 1950's - they weren't rich guys, they were teenagers with old jalopies or whatever they could get.
    On top of that, it's one of 'our' builds in that it's a viewer's own truck. That's pretty cool.

    Passing this along;
    “It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”

    Very coincidental I stumble across this video, seeming that my father left to me his extended cab 2005 GMC Canyon that’s currently undergoing an ls3/4l80 swap as a tribute to him.. I could never get rid of the truck and we were always building wild rides throughout the years and I know he’d be smiling just to see it’s state now.. and what’s even crazier is the original i5 motor and trans have over 400k miles and still performed amazing.

  • @bmancodgta4
    @bmancodgta4 10 лет назад +16

    I was really hoping Matt would make the point he made around 6 minutes. This stuff absolutely does seem silly to put that kind of money into that kind of truck, but when it's all you've got, and you have to bust your ass to slowly acquire and install part after part and build a fun ride, you work with what you've got. It's about owning a vehicle that you can afford, and slowly personalizing/improving as you can. Overall I agree about sport trucks, but still I would love to test drive that.

  • @rbeaton16

I'd probably try to find a beefier rear end, manual trans, etc but for re-using the I-5 and slapping a turbo on it with some chassis parts, it's a great sleeper truck somewhat on the cheap.

    Nice and very clean truck. So glad he didn't add a bunch of plastic stuff to "customize" it. Cool thing about this is it can be used for going to work, pick up something no one's sedan can carry after work, then with the washing machine in the bed you light up the tires a blow past some show-but-no-go cars. I like it much.

    Respect for a burger modded truck. He's done quite a bit with the income he's got. I'd always suggest saving up and go do the college thing, but car hobbies are addictive. I too put thousands into a car with nary a dollar to my name. It's just what kids do, and it does certainly make adolescence a whole lot more fun.
    If Matt wants to get better at driving, he should really start looking at local autocross clubs and start going to some events. It's about as close to free as racing gets and a great way to get legal seat time. The time will also highlight shortcomings and let him continue to develop the vehicle in addition to being quick in a straight line.

      I'd bet that 5 cylinder cost right at what you can get a 5.3 out of the junkyard for, under 2k you can pick up an engine and tranny with very low miles. www.nordstromsauto.com/

      Eric Johnson Why do what everybody else does? I bet if he put an LSx in it Matt wouldn't have looked twice at it or selected it for /tuned. You pull up at a track and people will yawn at an LSx swap which have been done, but a turbo 5 cylinder putting down some respectable numbers now that's going to raise some eyebrows. I have a lifted colorado with a powerdyne running 7psi on the 5 cylinder and although it isn't really fast or making crazy power everyone wants to sit and talk about it everywhere I go.

    I drive a 1990 Chevy Silverado 454SS to work everyday, has 263K miles (engine is newer) and the rest is original 400 turbo and 14 bolt rear. I give my truck absolute hell and it never leaves me stranded. Sport trucks are about what you buy honestly. Mine is stock mostly besides headers exhaust etc.. just my two cents

    • @brian5o
      @brian5o 10 лет назад

      Those old 454SSs were awesome trucks and you are lucky to own one.
      I remember when they first came out, I thought they were so menacing-looking and absolutely loved them. I still do.
      The 4th gen C/Ks are among my favorite GM trucks, along with the 2nd gen S-10s. No GM truck since then has looked nearly as good as those body styles in my opinion.

    This reminds me of myself. I work at a detail shop and put everything into my 1996 VW Golf GTI VR6 which I bought myself. I have installed a 60 trim Garrett turbo, Raceland coils, a stage 2 clutch, a short throw kit, and a full turbo back exhaust. She looks stock but I ate up a 6 speed LS2 GTO last week, haha.

    Maybe the kid likes trucks better than cars, especially foreign cars, but didn't want to say that because of the idiots that rag on people from the safety of their computer chair. At least he's out building something, not just dropping it off at a shop with one of daddy's checks.

    The people bashing this build are whats wrong with the Automotive community. Who cares if you think its useless or he shouldve bought a car etc. Its what he loves and thats what matters, hes not building this to make you like it, if you like it, thats a bonus. But dont expect him to just not do something he loves because everyone else dislikes it.

    An interesting, stealthy, original build, and it didn't cost 60K over the purchase price. Would have liked a bit more info/footage on the engine (had no idea GM made an l5). I like how you are heading back toward "roots" tuning, Matt!!

    Rear brakes:
    I woke up this morning, and one thing hit me while lying there in bed... Not sure if Matt has ever owned pickup trucks other than his modern and heavy Ford, but when I've jammed the brakes on in empty trucks, it's not as if rear disk brakes would have done anything different - as long as drums are set up correctly, there is only so much braking the rear can do before they just lock up from being un-weighted. Mere rear disk brakes on the rear of this build would mean next to nothing if the additional technology of rear anti-lock weren't with the system... and while I'm not sure such aftermarket rear disc brakes are to be had on the market, if they do exist I have to imagine they are a pretty penny indeed since they'd have to come with their own sensor and pulse system.
    IMHO, not worth it on a truck that doesn't have its bed loaded down.

    • @maximilianlindner
      @maximilianlindner 10 лет назад

      Not sure if you ever realized it, but the performance of brakes in sporty cars is measured by how fading resistent they are. I just upgraded the brakes on my mountainbike as well, even though I could easily block the tires with the old brakes. My new brakes (2013 Formula The One, a hell of a brake !) hold up much longer when going for a long downhill where you have to break often.
      Additionally I am going to upgrade the brakes on my bmw 525i E39 as well in near future. If you have to brake down from 240 km/h to 80km/h the brake is at its end. Bigger rotors from an E46 M3 and a brembo 4 piston fixed calipers from the older 7 series will do the job!
      I hope you could follow my explanation...
      Cheers

    • @Spearfisher1970
      @Spearfisher1970 10 лет назад

      Max Lindner You make sense, and I did think of the fade benefit when I was writing it, but for the uses this guy has - daily driver, drag racer - I was thinking drums may be just fine.

    • @maximilianlindner
      @maximilianlindner 10 лет назад

      Ok, this might be your let me call it "american-point-of-view" :)
      Here in Germany brakes are a highly inspected and important part of the car, because everyone is allowed to drive on the autobahn as fast as he/ she wants. Imagine a bmw 7 series coming with 160 miles per hour from the back having insufficient brakes...
      In the US you don't have these strict laws, that forbid you to tune your car in any ways like it is in Germany. Every single modification has to be approved by an instance that is called TÜV. Unfortunately tuning in Germany has become very expensive and complicated because of that. It's even illegal to change your wheels (the wheel type, not the act of changing itself) without getting a fine if not approved by the TÜV.
      Cheers mate

      ***** Unfortunately, yes. Once I have been in Cleveland for a few weeks. I helped building an E36 M3 Track car for the Oktoberfest at the mid Ohio race track. When the owner told me he could literally drive that thing on the road - My mind was blown...
      My secret evil genius future plan is to combine US automobile laws with german Autobahn. This would be a paradise!

    I had a 1999 Tacoma xtracab (still a very small truck) and I was thinking of going turbo. I loved that truck. It ended up being totaled after I tried drifting a sharp turn at 60mph at night (I know stupid no need to flame) Plus it had 4 seats& I could fit a ton of stuff in the bed. It's functional and fun and people won't be ready for it. Why be like the thousands of other people with little stanced miatas when you could have a unique sleeper, especially when you only have to pay for the upgrades
