Padric is such a killer addition to the team. Already feels like he’s been here since the start. Seems comfy on camera too. Keep it up dude! Loving the energy these days!!! What a crazy difference in speed. Really cool comparison
This is the first time I've seen someone encase the carb inside of the plenum box. That's brilliant! No boost leaks because there will always be positive pressure keeping fuel from leaking out (where it shouldn't) whilst under boost! I'm going to say that I appreciate Steve pointing out the time saving cutting the box lid without Arcdroid, I can see a mateship forming out of this 😎
As I've said before, adding Padric was the best possible addition to Grind Hard! Clearly a brilliant builder in his own right, and man did that turbo work infinitely better than I was ever expecting! ^^
@@trevorp5969my channel has old Sunrader stuff on it, and likely won’t see much love for a while as I’m super invested in Grindhard but I’m sure I’ll post some stuff soon enough 🤘🏼
So excited to finally give away a new truck! And you guys are going to be blown away by the level of tasteful upgrades we are about to do this thing 🤘🤘🤘 we cannot thank you enough for all of the support. This is all such a dream come true!
that is fcking incredible my guys. I hope you guys talk to some kind of legal guy before you do this because......... you don't want to get into mr beast kind of trouble with this.
i hope yall have talked to lawyers about this. the bigger you get the more likely it is you will run afoul of illegal lottery laws. "A giveaway becomes an illegal lottery when it does not comply with applicable laws12. For a giveaway to be considered an illegal lottery, it must have three elements: a prize, chance, and consideration (i.e., payment or something of value for entry)"
Bro, yer killin' it! I was unsure where this channel was going to go after Will left, but i'm certain as long as you stick around it will be places you can't even imagine!! It's like a whole new vibe we didn't know existed but needed.
You guys do great things with the mini road trips... I know you got plans for the hummer to go to Alaska.. but what about a "mini Alaska side trip" while you there?? Could be fun? 😉
Will's got his own channel called "BUM" now. I believe it stands for "Butt Ugly Machines" or something along the lines of that, so the exact opposite of Padric 🤔
@GrindHardPlumbingCo you gotta get progressive fuel pressure if you're gonna setup the turbo like this!! All of the boost you are creating is also acting against the fuel supply to the carb. Say you have 10 psi of fuel pressure, and then you add 7 psi of boost, you're only gonna have 3 psi of fuel pushing in. This will save this thing from exploding when it inevitably starves on fuel. You'll also have a hell of a time trying to get it to run right without a reference fuel pressure regulator. I can't believe the comments aren't full of this, it was the first thing I thought about when he started making the plenum.
yepp , this episode really made me question their legitimacy , does this thing even have a fuel pump ? how is fuel pressure referenced - regulated? where is the oil return line for the turbo , etc...
Oh so often they do brother. To deliver it to the carburetor from the tank even lawn mowers and shit with carburetors have a little fuel pump@@jalanihidup6119
Padrick is rad. His knowledge is great but the way he treats vehicles is fun to watch too. He knows how to be *safe-ish* while also pushing their limits. The team is really good right now. Padrick, if you wanna improve your test track time, watch how Ethan uses the shape of the track to carry speed thru and out of corners. He's hitting lines that you aren't even close to and it lets him enter/exit the turns with so much more speed. That lil jeep can't accelerate worth a crap so keeping any speed is hugely important. Best of luck!
Hey big guy, fill a 2ft or longer section of the pipe you intend to use full of sand. Cap 1 side, heat and bend. Let the excess sand escape from the top (pipe clamped horizontal) you can get pretty tight corners this way. Just be cautious, too much heat and stress it'll tear. Great work guys! Keep up the great content 👏
I've seen those mini jeeps on YT before. but now I to what you guys can do to one? AWESOME!!!!! Ethan is still the badest mo fo on the planet. he definitely has no fear behind the wheel or a set handlebars.
i have a question. why don't the easy way and put the turbo on the intake site of the turbo. a turbo can easily work with ready to ignite air/fuel mixture? great work, and i love that you are now part of a great team. looking forward. greetings from germany
Well done Padric on first official solo video. A great member to the team. Excited to see what he and all of Grind Hard Plumbing Company do. Hope Sema has been fun. Next year you will have the Humvee and the corvette power wheels powered by a harley at Sema. Im going to keep suggesting the harley vette until it gets made.
Where are the rubber grommets? gas line into boost chamber and throttle cable to get a tight seal on it then only a dab of silicone seal to be tight. always a slight under size drill bit
Please go full power wheels spec with this. Big full suspension and tires just to make it more ridable and capable. Keep up the amazing work guys, much love from New Zealand
Okay, so here's some unsolicited advice, but hear me out. What if Grind Hard invested in some kind of axle-driven mini dyno? I mean all the butt dyno tests are cool. Just an idea.
The fuel pressure has to be rising with the boost pressure. If you have like 3 psi of fuel pressure and 5 psi of boost the boost will push the fuel back in to the tank
@masterblaster1676 maybe; I just figured you'd get fuel delivery issues with the extra backpressure on the gravity fed fuel line. I don't think there's a pump in that thing
Gotta head to town, I'll be back later to watch, just wanted to say, I'm stoked! I think the boys will understand, I live (I think) about as far out or farther than they do. No service for a ways. It's nice to be out here. Not like some of the views in Idaho though. Be back soon to watch the awesomeness!
@leviweber1384 oh yeah, I mean I have fiber internet, so im not WAY out there like some. so I watched the second I got back. I'm impressed with the thing actually building some boost!

Assembling an engine, especially for a 2012 Subaru Outback (which likely has a 2.5L Boxer engine), is a highly detailed and technical process that requires considerable expertise in automotive mechanics, specialized tools, and access to high-quality parts. If you're planning to rebuild or assemble an engine, it's crucial to have a repair manual (such as the Subaru Service Manual) and a clean, organized workspace. That said, here’s an overview of the key steps involved in assembling a typical Subaru boxer engine. **Note that this is just a general guide, and you should always follow the specific service manual for your engine model.** ### Tools & Materials Needed: - Torque wrench - Engine assembly lube - Gasket scraper - Clean rags (lint-free) - Engine assembly lube (oil, assembly grease) - Specialty tools (such as valve spring compressors) - Gaskets and seals - Socket set - Wrenches - Crankshaft pulley tool (if needed) ### Steps to Assemble a 2012 Subaru Outback 2.5L Boxer Engine #### 1. **Prepare the Engine Block** - **Clean the block**: Ensure that the block is thoroughly cleaned to remove any debris or contaminants that might affect engine performance. Use a solvent or cleaner and a lint-free rag to wipe it down. Make sure all passages, such as oil galleries, are clear. - **Check for cracks and damage**: Inspect the block for any signs of wear, cracks, or damage. If you find any, you may need to machine or replace the block. #### 2. **Install the Crankshaft** - **Position the crankshaft**: Apply assembly lube to the crankshaft bearings and the crankshaft itself. Carefully place the crankshaft into the block, aligning it with the bearing caps. - **Install the main bearing caps**: Place the bearing caps over the bearings and torque them in the correct sequence and to the specified torque setting (found in the service manual). - **Check end play**: Verify that the crankshaft end play (the amount the crankshaft can move back and forth) is within specifications. #### 3. **Install Pistons and Connecting Rods** - **Prepare the pistons**: Apply assembly lube to the piston rings, piston skirts, and the connecting rod bearings. - **Insert the pistons**: Insert the pistons into the cylinders, ensuring they are oriented properly with the connecting rods. Use a piston ring compressor tool to help slide the pistons into place. - **Install the connecting rods**: Attach the connecting rods to the crankshaft, making sure the bolts are torqued correctly. #### 4. **Install the Cylinder Heads** - **Prepare the cylinder heads**: Clean and inspect the cylinder heads. Replace the valve seals and ensure the valves are in good condition. If you are replacing valve springs, guides, or seals, do so now. - **Install the cylinder head gaskets**: Position the cylinder head gaskets on the block. Make sure they’re correctly aligned with all bolt holes and water/oil passages. - **Torque the cylinder heads**: Carefully install the cylinder heads and torque the bolts in the correct sequence (typically starting from the middle and working outwards). Use the specified torque values. #### 5. **Install the Timing Components** - **Install the timing chain/belt**: For the Subaru 2.5L boxer engine, this will likely involve a timing chain. Ensure the timing marks on the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets align with the corresponding marks on the engine block or timing cover. - **Install the tensioners**: Install the timing chain tensioner, making sure it’s properly adjusted to maintain the correct chain tension. - **Double-check timing**: Ensure that the camshaft and crankshaft are in the correct position according to the timing diagram for the engine. #### 6. **Install the Oil Pump and Front Components** - **Oil pump installation**: Install the oil pump and the front crankshaft seal. Torque the oil pump bolts to the proper specification. - **Install the front cover and timing components**: Attach the timing chain cover and front seals. #### 7. **Install the Valve Train** - **Valve lifters and rockers**: Install the lifters and rocker arms (or cam followers), depending on the engine configuration. - **Camshafts**: Install the camshafts, ensuring they are oriented correctly with the timing marks. Torque the camshaft caps properly to the specified values. - **Install the cam gears**: Attach the cam gears to the camshaft, making sure the timing is correct. #### 8. **Final Assembly** - **Install the intake manifold**: Once the valve train is assembled, install the intake manifold along with the fuel injectors and any associated sensors. - **Install the exhaust manifold**: Install the exhaust manifold(s) onto the cylinder heads, ensuring all gaskets are properly seated. - **Install the water pump**: Attach the water pump, ensuring it’s sealed and torqued correctly. #### 9. **Install the Oil Pan** - Install the oil pan and ensure that it’s properly sealed with a new gasket. Torque the oil pan bolts evenly. #### 10. **Finishing Touches** - **Attach the alternator, power steering pump, and other accessories**. - **Install the timing belt or chain cover**: If there’s a timing cover, install it and make sure all bolts are torqued. - **Attach the belts**: Install the serpentine belt, ensuring proper tension. - **Check for oil leaks**: Before starting the engine, double-check that all seals and gaskets are correctly installed and there are no oil leaks. ### Final Checks: 1. **Rotate the engine**: Manually rotate the crankshaft a few times to ensure that all moving parts are functioning smoothly and nothing is binding. 2. **Add fluids**: Fill the engine with oil, coolant, and any other necessary fluids. 3. **Perform a compression test**: To ensure that the engine is properly assembled and there are no internal leaks. ### Starting the Engine: - Once the engine is fully assembled, carefully follow the manufacturer’s break-in procedure. This usually involves running the engine at varying RPMs during the first few hours to properly seat the piston rings. --- ### Important Notes: - **Always follow torque specifications and tightening sequences** to prevent damaging components. - If you’re not confident in your abilities, it might be a good idea to enlist a professional mechanic or seek additional help. Even minor mistakes can lead to engine failure. - Rebuilding an engine can take significant time, so make sure you have the proper space and organization to complete the task.
I feel like a pull through setup makes more sense for this, the flange on the intake of the turbo looks real similar to the carb flange, instead of making the weird boost box, not like hes running a bov or anything so no saftey issue there
I found you guys way back near the beginning looking up Tacoma stuff. I've had 2 Tacoma's over the years. A 1st gen, and now a second gen. Absolutely love those trucks. Glad to see you guys have blown way the fuck up! I got my entry in!
I had a TaoTao 125cc Jeep Dune buggy as a kid with the same exact motor! It couldn't survive the Texas heat and would only run for about 30 minutes during the summer before overheating.. it didn't work half the time, and mine only had 1 gear, but it was so much fun when it worked. All i could think when i saw this video was "TURBO DUNE BUGGY!!"
The new Tacoma is a beauty. Insane almost 300 Hp out of the new I4 engine. I wish I could donate to support buying merchandise. Will always continue to watch 📺 🖥 📺 from Michigan. ⚙️ ⚙️ ⚙️
"We are immediately taking it to the table top......" Hahahahaha yessssssssss! Padric is owning the joint for real. What a fit: The Grind Hard Boys seem very complete now.
as a welder when i started working i like to see your stuff making good welds and overall nicely engineered i hated aluminium back in the day its so hard to weld especially when you did the 1mm thick tube that stuff is hard
i think the transmission is semi-automatic clutch like much 100-125cc moped transmission. if im not wrong, if u hold the shifter at the start to put the transmission into clutch (ex. from neutral to 1st gear, hold it and release the shifter), you can make the start at better rpm
Cruising down the strip next to Ethan Friday night & seeing the Monster Chopper in action was not on my bingo card! It was one of the highlights of all the SEMA weeks I’ve had though! Props to you Ethan & your insane skills & builds.. Y’all are slaying it! I literally flipped a b**ch not even 2 minutes before I heard that thing coming down the strip… looking in the mirror & I was like what the hell is that with just 2 yellow lights heading towards us… so overwhelmed by all the builds cruising my mind drew a blank for a sec ha, then it clicked!!!
That thing needs a role cage!!!! 😂 Did anyone notice that C90's engine is in the front and this one is under the seats? The manufacturers have obviously been watching C90 and realised that these were bing used in the cold so heated seat would be good to have 😂🤣😂 Awesome video, thanks guys 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This video reminds me of a mini jeep that the Peck Bros. are working on now on their channel. They found a wrecked ATV that they're using as a donor vehicle. It should be a monster when they're finished with the ATV's drivetrain & suspension!! I'm looking forward to seeing what y'all do with this mini jeep. Check out the Peck Bros. build too!!
I know the majority of stuff you guys make isn't necessary made to last beyond a yard toy past a few years. But it really intrigued me even Edwin didn't mention those exhaust welds. You have An amazing tubing bender no reason for so many separate cuts... Edit: nevermind later into the video it's more clear. Lots of heat going into those bottom welds before changing direction down the stream. Make sure to stick the camera down there I'd love to see it glow 😛
2024 Tacoma giveaway! Enter here www.grindhardplumbingco.com
what does a chinesium jeep like that cost ?
it seems pretty well made.
yes have to fully weld the frame but still.
And you still haven't invited Ed March to your property to play with all the machines? DO IT!!!!!! Get him there! 😉

I'm going to say that I appreciate Steve pointing out the time saving cutting the box lid without Arcdroid, I can see a mateship forming out of this 😎
If you dont pressurize the float chamber it going very lean on boost, the venturi cannot function properly due to the changed pressure ratios.
Its the proper way to turbo any carbed engine

### Tools & Materials Needed:
- Torque wrench
- Engine assembly lube
- Gasket scraper
- Clean rags (lint-free)
- Engine assembly lube (oil, assembly grease)
- Specialty tools (such as valve spring compressors)
- Gaskets and seals

- **Torque the cylinder heads**: Carefully install the cylinder heads and torque the bolts in the correct sequence (typically starting from the middle and working outwards). Use the specified torque values.
#### 5. **Install the Timing Components**
- **Install the timing chain/belt**: For the Subaru 2.5L boxer engine, this will likely involve a timing chain. Ensure the timing marks on the camshaft and crankshaft sprockets align with the corresponding marks on the engine block or timing cover.
- **Install the tensioners**: Install the timing chain tensioner, making sure it’s properly adjusted to maintain the correct chain tension.
- **Double-check timing**: Ensure that the camshaft and crankshaft are in the correct position according to the timing diagram for the engine.
#### 6. **Install the Oil Pump and Front Components**
- **Oil pump installation**: Install the oil pump and the front crankshaft seal. Torque the oil pump bolts to the proper specification.
- **Install the front cover and timing components**: Attach the timing chain cover and front seals.
#### 7. **Install the Valve Train**
- **Valve lifters and rockers**: Install the lifters and rocker arms (or cam followers), depending on the engine configuration.
- **Camshafts**: Install the camshafts, ensuring they are oriented correctly with the timing marks. Torque the camshaft caps properly to the specified values.
- **Install the cam gears**: Attach the cam gears to the camshaft, making sure the timing is correct.
#### 8. **Final Assembly**
- **Install the intake manifold**: Once the valve train is assembled, install the intake manifold along with the fuel injectors and any associated sensors.
- **Install the exhaust manifold**: Install the exhaust manifold(s) onto the cylinder heads, ensuring all gaskets are properly seated.
- **Install the water pump**: Attach the water pump, ensuring it’s sealed and torqued correctly.
#### 9. **Install the Oil Pan**
- Install the oil pan and ensure that it’s properly sealed with a new gasket. Torque the oil pan bolts evenly.
#### 10. **Finishing Touches**
- **Attach the alternator, power steering pump, and other accessories**.
- **Install the timing belt or chain cover**: If there’s a timing cover, install it and make sure all bolts are torqued.
- **Attach the belts**: Install the serpentine belt, ensuring proper tension.
- **Check for oil leaks**: Before starting the engine, double-check that all seals and gaskets are correctly installed and there are no oil leaks.
### Final Checks:
1. **Rotate the engine**: Manually rotate the crankshaft a few times to ensure that all moving parts are functioning smoothly and nothing is binding.
2. **Add fluids**: Fill the engine with oil, coolant, and any other necessary fluids.
3. **Perform a compression test**: To ensure that the engine is properly assembled and there are no internal leaks.
### Starting the Engine:
- Once the engine is fully assembled, carefully follow the manufacturer’s break-in procedure. This usually involves running the engine at varying RPMs during the first few hours to properly seat the piston rings.
---
### Important Notes:
- **Always follow torque specifications and tightening sequences** to prevent damaging components.
- If you’re not confident in your abilities, it might be a good idea to enlist a professional mechanic or seek additional help. Even minor mistakes can lead to engine failure.
- Rebuilding an engine can take significant time, so make sure you have the proper space and organization to complete the task.
Just copy/pasting chat gpt replies? 🤔
@@KING_PHILLIP pretty much
@@WenieVR lol at least give the little robot credit 😅🙏

I feel like a pull through setup makes more sense for this, the flange on the intake of the turbo looks real similar to the carb flange, instead of making the weird boost box, not like hes running a bov or anything so no saftey issue there
What a wholesome crew, just fun vibes from start to end - easily one of my fave YT channels these days 🙏
I found you guys way back near the beginning looking up Tacoma stuff. I've had 2 Tacoma's over the years. A 1st gen, and now a second gen. Absolutely love those trucks. Glad to see you guys have blown way the fuck up! I got my entry in!
Two weeks ago i asked to see the taco again and you guys didn't disappoint 👏🏽 GHPC is still my favorite RUclips channel. Keep it up guys 💪🏽💯
That limousine truck in the back💀 5:20
Here’s my WA buzz breakdown: start with 1405, following with 473, and finish strong at 8042. I'll be expecting it on WA!
Padrick is definitely a good fit. The vibe he has is awesome. Always smiling and laughing.
Haven’t been super intune with Grind hard as of lately but the new guy had me hooked on the video the whole time
Man, that thing has way better suspension than it should have. I love these builds!
Only thing around when I was a kid were those stupid Barbie Jeeps
Man if I got ahold of one of these...still laughing, I get the stupid fun stuff!!
Having everyone enjoy the mini jeep is awesome to see.
Welds are starting to look pretty good! No ones ever perfect but you're definitely getting a lot better Good job man keep up the good work!
Polish the head + bigger carb + bigger jets...!
I forgot his name, but this dude is a great addition to the channel!
what a fun little thing lol, I was amazed how fast the turbo made it!
I had a TaoTao 125cc Jeep Dune buggy as a kid with the same exact motor! It couldn't survive the Texas heat and would only run for about 30 minutes during the summer before overheating.. it didn't work half the time, and mine only had 1 gear, but it was so much fun when it worked. All i could think when i saw this video was "TURBO DUNE BUGGY!!"
The new Tacoma is a beauty. Insane almost 300 Hp out of the new I4 engine. I wish I could donate to support buying merchandise. Will always continue to watch 📺 🖥 📺 from Michigan. ⚙️ ⚙️ ⚙️
Turbo ice engines today never last
Dude! I want one of those with a turbo now! ♥ Padrick , great job man 🙂
"We are immediately taking it to the table top......" Hahahahaha yessssssssss! Padric is owning the joint for real. What a fit: The Grind Hard Boys seem very complete now.
you guys are the reason I'm reminded that with enough money, time, space, and fabrication knowledge, you can do pretty much anything to a vehicle.
This thing needs to be turned into a mini rock crawler would be so premium !
You guys are awesome!!! I was smiling the whole time yall were ripping that thing around !! 👍👍👍👍
This is the first turbo setup i have ever seen enclosing the whole carburettor and damn it actually works🤣
Stop and take a moment to appreciate how hard it is to TIG overhead like that. Good job sir.
as a welder when i started working i like to see your stuff making good welds and overall nicely engineered
i hated aluminium back in the day its so hard to weld especially when you did the 1mm thick tube that stuff is hard
Man it doesn't matter what yall do I've been with yall for over 8 years now I love yall vids please just keep up the damn good stuff yall do.
i think the transmission is semi-automatic clutch like much 100-125cc moped transmission. if im not wrong, if u hold the shifter at the start to put the transmission into clutch (ex. from neutral to 1st gear, hold it and release the shifter), you can make the start at better rpm
Here’s my WA buzz breakdown: start with 1405, following with 473, and finish strong at 8042. I'll be expecting it on WA!!!!
Cruising down the strip next to Ethan Friday night & seeing the Monster Chopper in action was not on my bingo card! It was one of the highlights of all the SEMA weeks I’ve had though! Props to you Ethan & your insane skills & builds.. Y’all are slaying it!
I literally flipped a b**ch not even 2 minutes before I heard that thing coming down the strip… looking in the mirror & I was like what the hell is that with just 2 yellow lights heading towards us… so overwhelmed by all the builds cruising my mind drew a blank for a sec ha, then it clicked!!!
26:42 dive cylinders are 3000-4000 PSI. spray cans/ wd-40, crc etc are like 100psi. 10 psi is no worries.
If it produces uncontrollable giggles and laughter it's good. 😂👍
These guys aren't just living their best lives, they are living mine too.
Padric adds a great dynamic to the squad. Looking forward to the Winter season and GHPC 2025!!
“He’s ballsy around that corner, like no one has a right to be” 😂
Bro you video was just calming, and this might be my first video of yours to watch, buttt I will subscribe because its to beautiful not to do so❤
Welcome!!

Good to see the new guy can carry a solid episode. Happy days at GHP.
Intercooler and filter for that system be pretty awesome
Definitely more of a mini FJ40 imo over a Jeep. Still super rad!
I agree, I’m getting it a Toyota badge and it will be my Toyota but the title stays jeep for clicks 😭😭
Crisp editing on this one boys 👌🏼
Where do yall find all these talented guys! Truly gifted! Praise God, I love watching yall work!
I am looking forward to seeing how that Tacoma turns out. I have had my eye on one for a few years now. Nice units in my opinion.
WHERE WAS THIS CHANNEL BEFORE THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR MY ENTIRE LIFE
Here’s my WA buzz breakdown: start with 1405, following with 473, and finish strong at 8042. I'll be expecting it on WA!!!!
The editing on this is top notch! Chef’s kiss 🤌🏻
That little Jeep is pretty cool. Would have luved it when I was a kid! 👌👌
That thing needs a role cage!!!! 😂 Did anyone notice that C90's engine is in the front and this one is under the seats? The manufacturers have obviously been watching C90 and realised that these were bing used in the cold so heated seat would be good to have 😂🤣😂 Awesome video, thanks guys 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
This video reminds me of a mini jeep that the Peck Bros. are working on now on their channel. They found a wrecked ATV that they're using as a donor vehicle. It should be a monster when they're finished with the ATV's drivetrain & suspension!! I'm looking forward to seeing what y'all do with this mini jeep. Check out the Peck Bros. build too!!
I know the majority of stuff you guys make isn't necessary made to last beyond a yard toy past a few years. But it really intrigued me even Edwin didn't mention those exhaust welds. You have An amazing tubing bender no reason for so many separate cuts...
Edit: nevermind later into the video it's more clear. Lots of heat going into those bottom welds before changing direction down the stream. Make sure to stick the camera down there I'd love to see it glow 😛
