PLEASE NOTE: When disconnecting the battery, make sure you disconnect the NEGATIVE terminal first, then disconnect the POSITIVE terminal. Also, at the 1:31:56 mark, this is the point where you want to connect the battery terminals back on to the battery. Begin with the POSITIVE terminal and end with the NEGATIVE terminal. They are secured using a 10mm socket.
I love your videos. They're so informative and well filmed. Shame you're not in the UK. I have a whole list of upgrades you could do to my Spider. Keep up the great work.
Hi, thanks for the video. A couple of questions. Why did you remove the down pipe? And if you did wasn’t that a good opportunity to upgrade the down pipe? Next, why can’t the exhaust manifold be removed with the turbo attached? Since both will be replaced why is disassembly required? And can’t the new turbo be mounted to the exhaust manifold before it is installed? It seems like you did a lot of work that could have been done prior to the installation. Just observation.
brian you guys are the best. great video. i reallly wish i had this when i did my 1446+ install. helpful tho, gives me confidence and a couple of key steps i didn't take will benefit getting back in there to fix the walked out turbo mount studs! thanks much
Knowing what we do now about the studs to turbo flange, would you still have access if you installed the turbo attached to the exhaust manifold as an assembly? Allowing easier tightening or the use of safety wire bolts instead of the stud and nut combo?
Is it possible to install the turbo impeller housing to the manifold before installing the manifold? Seems it would make torquing as well as safety wiring the bolts much easier.
We replaced the factory Downpipe with the Goodwin Racing SportCat Downpipe. We made mention of it in the video when we were installing it. As for preload, it was set to standard preload for the Forge unit. However, the focus was not on the Forge unit or Downpipe, it was on the turbo. We will have separate videos on those.
@@NGENCustomsandPerformance top notch... I usually re set the preload like letting the clamp stick on to the valve(pin) and then hook it of and two laps back. What spring (color) is in your wastegate? Curious. Max
So we have one full turn from max on the forge unit with a yellow spring. We have found that it works well at that setting with an upgraded turbo/manifold and two full turns from max when using the stock turbo/manifold.
Common problem #1: People constantly telling you that the MX-5 is better (It isn't) #2: People constantly coming up to you and saying "Fix it again Tony!" and fighting the urge to beat them to a pulp with a torque wrench. #3: A lot '17 124's had a bad batch of AC compressors #4: Minor Evap leaks
I heard a batch of 124s in 2018 had water pump issues (leaking). Besides that most things I find on the forums are in regards to misfire codes associated with the multi air system/brick which scares me. Also they’re not playing when it comes to spark plug service intervals lol
I would need my 🤓 for the C clip as well!! Unlimited income- ( pick up the car, NGEN Performance "Do your worst!!" And have a monster of a daily driver/track car!

This is the best instruction for removing the turbo on the 124.
Fantastic video. So much patience, precise & informative. Thank you!

Really, really well done video. So good it even gives me confidence that with my ipad and this to follow in front of me, I could do the work.
Brian you have to live 💯 years!
When I'm ready, I'm doing this. Brian keep one on ice for me.

This is a great video man thanks!
I don't have the time nor the patience to do this. What is the net HP gain?
Awesome! Love your content bro!
Can you do a video review of how the car drives and sounds?
Will you be doing a turbo install video for the 500 Abarth anytime soon????
We should have it out in two weeks!
Is it possible to install the turbo impeller housing to the manifold before installing the manifold? Seems it would make torquing as well as safety wiring the bolts much easier.
I don’t see why not. For the 124, I would definitely still split the turbo though until the manifold is 100% on. Let us know how it works out.
fantastic everything!
Hey man can you do a big turbo upgrade for the abarth 500??looking to get one and you are the best channel for how to do it!!!
We start filming tomorrow for the 500 Abarth
@@NGENCustomsandPerformance Sick man thank you so much!🙏
Hey.
Good video. But wy not install a 200cell cat? And did you adjust the wastegate preload? Didn't se that in the video?

You should make a common problems video for the 1.4l. I want a 124 bad as my next daily

Bonsoir je voulais savoir brancher tuyau pour le baromètre turbo sur 124 Abarth merci
I was hoping for a start up comparison 😭
