Get a tractor flap for the hater pipe. Wish you guys posted more often but I understand how life goes.
Not only that I it'll protect it from rain
You mean the rain cap
Water would not do shit
@@stevenstanton8037 it would sit in the turbo
Since the turbo is above the manifolds, the truck probably doesn't make enough exhaust pressure to push it out. Could run the risk of hydro-locking the engine
been subed since the twin rear setup.,,yall killing it!
lmao ill see yall on 1320 soon
I can't believe I only just stumbled upon this channel.all the badass content I've been missing ,well since I'm sick and not much I can do, going to binge watch the hell out of this channel all weekend!!!!
The Tahoe is Back with a new setup and it's time to crank it up to the moon, what you think it'll make this time around?
Turbros Garage hmm 🤔645 horsepower and 610 torque
What do Ya use as far as a tune?
MASTurbros Garage
What manifolds do you have on there?
What obd1 tuning are you doing?
Hey guys, it’s nice to see your up to more making hp with turbros! I can’t wait to finish mine, I already have a 400 motor for my turbos second motor, in near future.
Great videos! Been following you guys for a long time. Keep up the good work
Great job guys. I run a small shop myself and time for your stuff seems non existent. I'm getting my car ready and will post the videos soon. Super job driveability shows you got some tuning skills passenger seat guy!!!!
That idle is NASTY bro!!!! Damn cool build!
Just got me a 96 2 door tahoe.....excited to build aomething similar and smoke every camero and charger in town. Good stuff brotha's.
Finally been waiting for another Tahoe video
My buddy did a l31 with the ramjet intake from parts performance. Procharger then went to turbo. Rest was stock. Made 500
Much better than this
Guys got me dreaming got 98 5.7 can't kill 220000 miles on it like to rebuild ground up I'm a hard driver still strong no oil burn guys are great
DAAAAAMN bro, I had no clue this was your channel. I been following your new stuff. I had the same 2dr obs Tahoe back in mid 2000s.with a 383 lt1 from a Caprice. It was stupid quick. And before I turboed my 1s son was born. 👍🏾🤙🏾👏🏾
What cam are you guys running and do you have stock vortec heads I would love to do a setup like that in my Camaro
But but but. You cut out the a/c. Smh. Where I live you cant live without A/C. Awesome build!
Love that sound at idle. Would be a fun truck.
I wonder if I can do this to my 93 2500 suburban 454
At 5psi I added an intercooler to mine and it made a huge difference.
I was gonna suggest like a dry nitrous nozzle with some water/methanol injection. Tie it to lean conditions and throttle position/gear of trans/mph etc.
Or drill a hole, wire up a single extra fuel injector, pulse that"ish based on same lean/hard throttle/mph conditions and friggin send that ish.
Y'all using the whack ass top end Vortec chevy development for the La injector setup for 1999? Or do you have the 6.0/6.2 v8 with the early early ls.5 manifold and external injectors?
That dang 3 year chevy 350 with the two piece intake has very little after market support.
And the LS is just way better.
A DUI driver wrecked my clean emerald green 1998 k1500 z71 about 5 weeks ago, so I gotta lay down the props for rocking the last "square" body style.
I got a 1999 round ish Silverado 1500, 5.3 l with the actual aftermarket supported ls1/lm7 engine. I'm trying to slap a big old blower out the hood with the insurance payout.
Just wham!
10:71 and party pulley, whirring/loping and surging wasting gas and lookin badass, yafeelme? I know turbos are where efficiency lives.
Bu5 that belt driven intake looks so hard...unless procharger wanna just send me a F1-c....i mean....ill shred the drive line for a procharger kit.
And maybe a 4 pack of tires all the way round...
Now ya gotta test the stock transfer case torque capability. Get some 4200rpm stall and a transbrake.
Maybe 60ft will be 1.20, maybe the 60ft will provide beautiful glittery shards to decorate the absolute brutal failure of the front shaft/transfer case chain.
That's a dope ride. Always wished chevy kept that full size blazer/Tahoe body around maybe 5 more years. As a competitor to the escalade, yknow?
I started watching you guys because of this Tahoe, please don't forget your roots!
I just got me a 99 gmc yukon 5.7 vortec stock pretty much .i wanna do me some upgrades for hp i am mechanically inclined to work on all my engines myself so my next question would be?? what and how should i get to achieve this?? Please and thank you
I LOVE JANKY BUILDS! More please...
Are y'all still running the spider injector or was it converted to individual injectors with fuel rails?
Did you get the headers made by someone or ordered online? Looks like a really decent set. Like that a 76mm can still squeeze in next to the alternator.
Dude savage build boys!
What cam you guys using?? Curious because I’m building my 3rd gen camaro with turbo vortec. I have eagle forged crank and rods already just gotta get the pistons and turbo setup
I just discovered this channel, so awesome, I got a 94 suburban that needs turbos I'm starting this summer, I'm a few hrs from 337 area code, maybe I'll run across y'all.
Aye what’s up, that’s gonna be a killer build!
How is it holding up haven’t seen any updates I want to turbo my 94
OMG that thing sounds sick! I want to do this to my Yukon! But no hater pipe lol
Do you guys have a video on installing the phantom grille? I want that grille it reminds me of the 81 customs trucks back in the day, but I’ve never seen how it’s put together. Any info?
Can someone please enlighten me on where to begin learning how to tune? im really interested in how he corrects timing, fuel pressure, etc from his laptop
Dusty Retterath google it.
So is it literally just a stick 350 with a cam and a turbo? No forged internals?? I thought with 400 ish whp you would need some sturdier internals? How reliable is it? Like is it gonna blow up in 100 miles? Is it long term? Is it sturdy?
I just brought a 1996 tahoe high miles 290k but that vortec pullin strong still gets sideways no problem.. Not bad 4 $1000
Sounds awesome got any more videos of this Tahoe. I happen to have a k1500 same motor I wanna Do the same thing
This is so sick wow. What did you guys like better twin or single? Im thinking about boosting my 97 suburban.
hey i know it’s been 4 years any luck on it, i want to boost my 1999 5.7l suburban and i’m trying to figure out how to do it
Luv da cam! Need one for my "B" 5.3!
What are the headers you have on this? Looking for something similar.
Is that the oem black box? How did u guys tune for boost ? Thanks, im trying to do the same to my 5.7
Ought to switch to Holley Terminator X with the self learn. Add a J&S Safeguard knock control regardless....it will save yer stuff.
Do you think if you would have done the 411 ecm swap on the Tahoe you would still be able to tune it for the turbo? And also can you run e85 if you had injectors and fuel pump they could support it?
Well yeah you can you kinda answered your own question lol
I have the same exact motor n im doing a single turbo as well 97 vortex 5.7 would I blow my lower end stock as well whats the max boost I can do without hurting it
How hard would it be for me to build this in my garage? I have a stock l31 in my 1997 k3500 and I want to build a turbo system for towing.
Man that BBQ top gives that truck so much character and personality. I'd keep the BBQ top. LOVE IT
I plan on boosting my 98 LT! Have a bit of front end work to get out of the way first though.
Did you do it?
Do some slicks and a custom 4 link, and some other suspension components; this thing would fly on the strip and street😎
“Shoots big flames and shit” 😂😂😂👍🏻 good shit
What size turbo did you put on it and what tune ??? I'll like this on my 97 k1500 4x4 with the 5.7 vortec . Thanks for the video . P.s. where are you guys located ???
Where do you run oil drain for turbo ? And is Tahoe still running today ?
I live in Abita Springs Louisiana. My Tahoe is on my profile pic. That things bad ass. I need to put a motor in mine right now. I miss driving it
Can I get a parts list of what I need I want to turbo my 99 chevy suburban c1500 5.7 vortec but not sure what intake and stuff stock motor
Nice was this a kit or do you have a list of parts that you use I put on l-31 in my 1996 GMC Jimmy 2 door is there a kit or combo and parts list that you used
Man i lost this channel for awhile now good to see the tahoe still killing it
Those single door tahoes are gangster
Subbed because I like cool shit done to trucks
Thanks my guy!
I used to work for borg warner in Longview lol.
I have one of these, LOVE the way they sound 😁
Same
Good stuff!!!
All you need is a exhaust rain cap to solve that grill lid problem
Yo I just got a 2000 Escalade 5.7 vortec and if I could get a parts list or something I would love to turbo this thing mines bone stock so idk where to begin
Where did you get that phantom grille??? Ive been looking for an obs tahoe one for so long
Nice rig boys! 🤙🤘🇺🇸
Where do you conected the oil line?, From the oil pressure sensor or from where?
I’m really interested in turboing my 5.7 Silverado
much love from socal brothers. let's see some ripping baby
Where did you get the edelbrock intake piece or where can I find one
Where did u get the turbo from. I'm looking for one on my vortec 5.7
was hoping to see that again!
I have a 96 chevy Silverado standard cab short bed with an L31 Vortec 5.7 with 130,000 miles. Runs like a champ with strong oil pressure. Runs like new. I have been kicking the turbo idea around. After watching this vid, I am taki g it more seriously. Would a 2 bolt main handle a turbo if I kept the boost down? Maybe not going past 450hp or even 400HP???? I think a turbo kit would be a whole lot cheaper than building the engine to produce 400-450hp, do you think??? What did your kit cost??? Oh! Also, I did pick up a 99 5.7 L31 long block 4-bolt main out of a 99 HD2500 suburban from the junkyard as a exact drop in replacement. But the short block needs rebuild. I pulled it apart and crank is almost perfect. Just needs polished & Overall looks like its been well maintained and good condition but with high miles. The rods are the newer Powder rods and Not the forged steel like the older rods. I would rather just do the bolt on rather than rebuilding and swapping the engine for now. Maybe in the next couple years rebuild the short block and do the ARP bolts upgrade and reuse the crank and rods and new pistons, possibly bored 30 over and do a proper compression ratio and piston type for boost?? Do you think the 2 bolt will hold up? I dont plan on driving hard all the time. I am the type of driver that occasionally plays but drives easy and non aggressive most of the time. So with my driving style and a 2 bolt and not going past 450hp, you think just a bolt on kit with a mild to moderate setup in boost work with what i have under hood?? I just want to be able to "walk away" from a stock corvette, camaro, dodge charger, ect.....when they offer the challenge at the stop light lol...
How did you tune it?
Yo you guys got any ideas for my 99 Chevy Silverado 1500 extended cab Z71 4×4 I want to make my truck Hall ass if need be I go a lot of places that I need to get point A to B to C quick any ideas would be great thanks
What kind of turbo kit would you recommend for my 1997 Chevy Silverado truck with 5.7l Vortec? My truck has 58,000 original miles on it. I am the second owner.
People probably think it’s a diesel with the turbo spool
The Tahoe needs a drag pack
Yo wats up brotha ey i have a 5.7 yukon 4 door and wanted some some pointer as to what to do on it
Need specs for the truck I love it
Where did y’all order that off of? Because I got a 5.7 Vortech that I’m trying to supercharge
Hello, where to find this grille that goes in front of the headlights?
Ya’ll should try water injection like they do in prop planes lol 😆
I wanted to do a hood exit and tractor flap on my turbo LS but I think I'm learning more towards a fender exit
If you're ever going to actually drive it, and not just thrash it up and down the street, then you really don't want it dumping right on your windshield.
@@operator8014 Yeah, that's why I was leaning more towards just doing a fender exit, or just dumping it straight to the ground for now. I built my own crossover with the leftover stock exhaust piping (2.75" from an 02 Silverado) and I just wanted it to function for now so I didn't get too precise with it, so I don't have the room to fit a 4" downpipe between the crossover and frame rail. Gonna be re-doing the crossover with some 2.25" piping and then I can fit the 4" downpipe down and out the back of the truck
love the barn doors
What ecu are you using
Track time !!!!
Sounds bad ass looks good
Your losing 1/3 of your hp without a intercooler bro. eBay cooler that mother be haulin
Did you not hear they run methanol??
john preston apparently you heard wrong ....he said methanol in the future but on the boost they were running he believes it wouldn’t benefit 🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Loosing 20 or 30hp without an intercooler.
Darrin Curtis notice the short basic intake tract anyone? Quicker spool over top end
It's a little bit ghetto but it works. Story of my life
What rear end gear are you running
Where did y'all get the headers I'm in desperate need of a set
Would you guys be willing to make and sell a set of those headers with the t4 flange??
So I have a 98 gmc k2500 with the 350 5.7L OBS 4x4 kit 😭 I’m turbo tuning it soon
you need an intercooler. You'll be able to run more boost and will be safer. no intercool= extremely high intake temperatures an ebay intercooler will do
What are you using for a ecu
Any updates on the taboe?
Feel like it has more power now?
Is that turbo not gonna get hot on the alternator?
How much would this turbo set up cost ? I have a truck with the same engine . I just want to make around 350- 400hp .
I have the same engine too, do you know from where the oil line Is conected in the engine?, I bought a turbo and i want to install It but i dont know how to lubricate the turbo
Cool vids !!!
Definitely get an intercooler though! You guys will make difference in power and safer. Nice setup
Provided I do the same thing in my 2Dr with intercooler Will reliability be there still?
What cam do you have in the Tahoe
Where did you find your turbo kit?
About how much would a setup like that run me?
Can you explain what you're running with your PC to be programming the truck? I want to get a tuner and get into tuning, and remembered that they used to use conputers to tune, so I'm trying to figure out what's needed to do so, and if it's any cheaper than buying a handheld.
If you have to ask your far from getting into tuning not to be a dick...i would do lots of research before u just jump into it and blow up your engine ...it looks to be a hp tuner program honestly..its not as easy as u think it is..has taken me yearssssss to Learn what i know .and im still learning daily .
But for your ? .you need a program like hp tuners or sct tuner..depending on what u wanna tune..anything before 94 95 ish depending on vehicle you cant tune with a computer..obd1 has to be chip.basically like you would build a computer hardrive .. un less you go stand alone .like haltech or another brand ..hp tuners i have found to be the easiest to learn on ..but there are many options.but if its a obd2 setup .all you need is a program like hp.and the cable. To plug into the ecu..not the obd port btw..and a decent computer to run the program...and the knowledge to know what your doing .its all about tables like fuel and ignition..you change one thing down low it all changes .its not easy bud..theres tons of good 2 hr long videos on RUclips to get you started..and for price wise its definitely cheaper to go with a programmer still willbbe paying 400 to 500 for a decent one ..sct tuner arent bad...but a setup to fully tune your ecu.your looking at $1000-1200 with a laptop .unless u have one thats decent
Oh and forgot to mention..not all ecu are tunable..alot of newer vehicle there ecu are locked..you can only do so much with out going stand-alone
@@nick-zi4bs I can appreciate that. I would've most likely gone with a simple SCT tuner and get Lund's lifetime personalized programming or something similar. I was more or less trying to figure out if tuning with PC was still a thing, and if the setup to do so could be accomplished for less than the $400 tuners. And you're right, I do have a lot to learn. And anything I would be doing wouldn't be anything crazy. I know how to tell myself not to if I know I can't. But what I can't do is pay somebody to do all my tuning every time I need it. I'm just trying to keep things as quick, easy, effective, quality, and budget as possible.
@@nick-zi4bs it's going to be on a 2010 Mustang GT. I'm pretty sure those are very tunable lol. I appreciate all your info man
Lol longish time fan. I am throwing a 2nd gen 350 with a powerglide into a 2door 4runner wanna feature it?
I wanna see it
