How To Install Turbo Wastegate
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- On this episode of The Fab Forums I work on getting the turbo wastegates installed on the fox body hotrod build. Really the hardest part about doing this is getting both of them exactly the same. One more thing checked off on the fabrication side of this build.

Welcome to The Fab Forums. My name is Kyle Voss and I am a automotive fabricator that produces Custom Automotive Fabrication content of all kinds. Including Carbon Fiber, TIG Welding, Metal Shaping, Hot Rods, Muscle Cars, Custom Choppers, and everything in between. I work hard to bring you new content on a weekly basis.
Here are some of the builds you can find on this channel.
I have built several Chevy trucks. The first was my 1964 C10 named Crown Spoyal and the most recent C10 truck project was the 1969 I recently sold to a friend named the Black Pearl.
I am also finishing up a custom twin turbo Ford Mustang build I call the Gray Goose. It’s a 400 cubic inch Windsor style engine with twin 70mm turbos. I am hoping to make around the 1000 horsepower mark to the tires on this particular build.
Last but not least is the one off custom hot rod build called the Bibbster. This is what I call a modern day hot rod. It’s made from an old Ford Mustang foxbody, but made to look like an old school open wheeled hot rod.
I also feature other fabricators and shops like Cutworm Specialties hand formed aluminum wide body kit for a BMW e46. Jeb Greenstone has also built a twin turbo, coyote powered model A style hot rod from scratch, and is currently building a Toyota TE72 wagon drift car powered by a 1UZ Lexus v8. Jeb’s custom fabrication skills are fun to watch and always make for good videos.
Check out my playlist to see some or all of these builds.

The full-time shops and the pro RUclips channels that knock out the projects fast are not "real". The magic of editing and the many hands behind the scenes make it look like easy. You keep it real and honest. Priorities change all the time and projects have to go on the back burner. 30mins in the morning or evening keep the fires lit and the ball rolling. Eventually you finish "eating the elephant" one bite at a time. Kudos to you for taking care of your own priorities and still keeping the projects moving forward. Most projects don't even get finished. That won't happen to you.
Another option is using some pvc to do your mock-up. Nice and cheap and allows you to setup the notcher perfectly ahead of time
limitliss
Can confirm. I use PVC as templates and it's easy to handle
I don't care how long it takes to build, it's a piece of art! I just want to hear it start up the first time..
Good to see you got your priorities straight 👍
Dude dont even worry about the haters. You finish bibbster when you finish. 3 things to never mix the order up of. 1)family 2) full time job 3) play time with your projects. So far you seem be doing a damn good job of balancing it all so kudos 👍.....fyi you technically working 2 jobs 1) the day job 2) the dad job taking care of 4 kids and the honey do list is a job on its own. Good job dude keep it up look forward to seeing whats next for the bibbster. 👍
I also try balancing work, kids and car stuff. New exhaust I thought would take a week is up to 3 weeks now... Every build video you put out motivates me to go out in the garage a few more hours even though I'm tired as hell
glad I could help 😉
It took me about 10 years to get my foxbody to where I want it .. ppl ask me why did it take so long … I say first off I’m leaving no stones unturned before I bring it out .. 2nd my priority is my kid and my Child support .3rd I paid off my house in those 10 years .. now I’m wrapping it up … just got done putting my exhaust on while watching your video in the garage .. most of all I don’t owe a dime on any part I have bought for the car !!! When I bring it IM BRINGING IT !!!!
Man, i'm in the same boat as you except the RUclips thing. Thanks for reiterating the fact there are no excuses for not getting things done. "Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hour days." - Zig Ziglar
Those valve covers look kick ass... well so do those wastegate's...
I’m right there with you. Couple of kids, real job, late nights. The project is the passion but not the priority and my channel is just for fun. I often say that if I were a trust fund baby, I’d finish the Scout in two weeks. I’ve been following you an long time and you have definitely earned your fan base. Your attention to detail is heroic. Keep it up.
thanks man
Kudos to you, in spades, for juggling all those balls - family, work AND building fun cars etc. - and not dropping any! 👍
The longer you take to build that very delightful machine the longer you keep us entertained and the more we learn, so you just take your sweet time. 🙂
Looks great brother!! Super slick and dont worry about comments from keyboard commandos lol.. your doing a QUAILTY job on these builds and I for one appriecate the fact that your paitent and fab this stuff up correcty..iam a fabricator/welder in wisconsin and i understand that time and dedication involved in building and welding things from scratch. Thanks for the content dude and i look up to you in many ways..
A man with comprehension of the planning and fabrication.
Oh and g'day from West Australia 38yrs in trade life totally agrees with you😉🙂👍👍
I feel your pain Kyle I have 2 little ones and it’s tough to get anything done keep your head up and the coffee brewing ☕️👍🤘🏻🇺🇸😎🚗💨💨💨💨
lol...appreciate it
Always a good day when I get that new video notification! Keep up the badass work man!
Perfect. It's amazing when you build a car how centers and perpendiculars and parallels creep into your plans. I hate it but it's what keeps the creativity moving instead of stale and uninteresting. This build is beyond interesting...it's captivating.
All sorts of truth in the last minute of the video! Really enjoy seeing the project come together-so clean and carefully done. Makes it all the more impressive considering the other elements of “real life” are involved!
Could prob get a hole saw in there being that the tube is so short. Maybe put an extension and socket on the end of the arbor if you got one that's a hex, that is if the far end is too far. Use the tubing as a "pilot" instead of a drill bit. Cut a close to perfect hole for yourself. And as car builder myself, take your time man. Getting things done right takes a while. Looking forward to some content on this build.
i will have to give it a try
It's hobby, no pressure. Have fun!
Man I don't care how long it takes you to build the Bibbster, I've enjoyed the journey watching your creative process on it. Plus it just means more weekly content!
Long time fan haven’t commented in a while.Thanks for another video you inspire me to want to do better work. I just picked up my new tig welder lastnight thanks for the everything you do! 🤙
awesome, glad I could help in some way. appreciate you watching
I hear that man! I will forgo sleep to do garage and project things. My wife and kids are priority. Who needs sleep anyway, over rated lol. That's how we got the SEMA rat rod done. No sleep = productivity. See you there.
Almost time...see you there
@@Thefabforums Booth 43049 is where we will be. Are you going as media or at a booth?
Oh yeah, more of the Bibbster.👊 The placement and fitment of those wastegates looks so good, Kyle. To this point, I haven't built my own turbo setup, but I have studied it quite a bit. Some people put their wastegates at weird angles that aren't conducive to flow and I can't see how they work properly half the time. IMO, the way you have yours positioned is pretty much ideal. As for your balancing act, we only know what you show us, and that's probably only the tip of the iceberg. From what I can see, it looks like you're doing a hell of a job, especially considering all the big things you have going on in your life right now. No complaints here, brother. Like most of the Fab fans, I totally get it.👍😎 Looking forward to seeing the Gray Goose again in the near future. Keep diggin' and we'll see you soon.
Real life is for people who does not know what is it about keep doing what you do bro that is why you have what you have hard work
Awesome job!! That's attention to detail. Hard to balance family life and projects. Nice shop and good organization helps. Worked till 3:00am last night too, brother!! Keep it up!!
Man! I really appreciate you sharing your shop life with us! It's a ton of work with the editing, family, work life balancing! I also like the vlogging type stuff you do! It's great seeing the family bits too!
Thumbs up for your honesty at the end. Keep up the balance! 👍
I hear you on the work-life balance. Stealing time in the early mornings and late at night. Rolling into work with bloodshot eyes. If you're not careful, you'll blink and 2 year went by with you in zombie mode. That's where regrets are made.
@T Web Same here. Lost 3 years of my kids' early years trying to get a business off the ground.
agreed...I try to maintain a good balance
@@Thefabforums keep at it man.
I know fabricating takes a long time specially from scratch I think it’s just such a cool project that people are just getting impatient like me we just want to see it finished curious to see the Finish project you’re one of the best fabricators I ever seen
great looking shop
she's looking good man! i think the grill shell is a great idea, make a frenched inlet on one side and exhaust outlet on the other side and the wastegate dumps below the frenched inlet & outlet. i think that would look pretty sweet. keep it up man!
It's about the journey... I always appreciate the fab tips and tricks along the way. Keep up the good work and don't worry about the haters. ✊
Yo brother take your time forget what these people say . I have been watching you for over a year and waiting to see the bib-ster . You cant rush perfection stay cool stay chill and take your time
Nice quality work as always. I like the idea of the slant back grill shell, cause it could give you one of the prime elements of putting a "face" on the car. I can almost picture a '29 track roadster type oval or even Bugatti shape, but with some other kind of inner grid rather than vertical bars. Maybe you could English wheel a perforated sheet to fit in a frame and have a convex bulge. It could be the nose to go with your headlight eyes. PS; You never have to justify or apologize for how you prioritize your time and energy. We would all love to see more of your content, but it's YOUR life to enjoy as you see fit.
It DON'T MATTER How Long it Takes For ANY of Your Projects Kyle, KUTAW n God Bless All.
Yo I totally get the time it took me 5 years to get to the point of even going to the track to make test hits so hats off to you brother keep on the grind like we all do 💯 👊
Good stuff man. Thank you for showing me this. I was trying to figure out how to do these on a cheap turbo log.
Screw the haters bro,perfection takes time,this a quality build if people want to see something slapped together go watch cleetus McFarland,great work brother
Great channel always pick up something new to help with my C10 build. Thanks👊🏻
I always like when I can check something off the projects' lists.. slow and steady I'm chewing on them. Cheers!
Oh yeah. One restoration started almost 11 years ago... time flies sometimes.
Looking good! Shop is coming along and can’t wait to see the goose done!!!
You are an inspiration to all !! Keep it up . We love the videos over here in Australia .
I've always wondered what it is that yo do for a day job. I've been a tech for 30+ years and I see some of your work and the things you know how to do, and think this dude isn't just some average guy. You do things that most people wouldnt know and do them very well. Hell even I have learned some cool stuff from you.
Thanks Ron
Thanks
Love seeing the mechanical fab but I can't wait to see how you decide to tackle the design of the rear body panels. Going to be badass!
yeah that should be the next project
everything i see on your channel is top notch
Good stuff right here
Another great video 👍👍👍
Awesome as always! Full time! WOOT!
Man dont worry about keyboard warriors. I run two companies and a family, I couldn't imagine adding RUclips lol. And I have used pool noodles to mock up for my tube work. It worked for me but I'm not to the level your at I have only done my cage for my mud buggie. You do what ya do man, that's why the true fans are here and support ya.
I will be honest, I can’t wait to see this thing finished, however respect for putting family before the car
Those look super COOL!!!!
It looked like you were doing the limbo tiggin' under the string. lol
lol...it felt like the limbo
Great vid brother
Yessss, the goose, I asked, you listened, thanks Kyle
Good echo now from waste gate location. Thinking about running audio into oscilloscope I happen to be using right now to see if it reveals how far away the offending surface is located, for curiosity's sake.
Check out Draco's owner and previous pilot. He hardly requires any sleep for some very fortunate reason. Peace.
Keep up the awesome work man. You are very inspiring.
Alright meow! Don't pay attention to KB warriors man! just do what you gotta!
Awesome work man. Clean
Flow of the exhaust and wastegates might give you issues with controlling boost. Awesome fab tho!!👌
Its actually setup in the most optimal location and direction for proper control of boost
Great videos !!! im working on a pro street 72 GMC fleetside 4 years. takes time if you want to do it right !!
11.34HRS...Get to bed Bro'...always good to see the progress you make on any project...Real life...gets in the way of 'stuff'...but you are making headway...Full Time RUclips? Well, if you think it will work....DO IT!!!
"How long is it going to take?". F em, your work and vids r top notch. Keep it up.
Just gotta do work, son! Keep grinding!!
Awesome work brother! 🤘
Nice A.. work as always! Keep it up!!!
Anyone that complains about your production speed has never built anything or works on their stuff full time. You get more done now than I did when I was single with no kids. Chasing skirts was pretty time consuming, but it wasn’t all day every day like kids and a wife. Of course I might have gotten a lot more done if I had all of the fab tools that you have, but I pissed away too much fun money on women and booze. If I only knew then what I know now...
I was just explaining to someone a week ago who was complaining about how he just wants for RUclipsr creators to just upload their project video's when the project is done. Because he hates it when people "milk" their projects, by taking years to finish and just updating with progress videos. They didn't seem to understand that actual fabrication work, or restoring a car from the ground up takes TIME!! skill, equipment, experience. Hell my own restore build have taken me about six years of weekend work. It's always people who have never picked up a wrench before that talk the most junk. Rome wasn't build overnight, and neither are project builds. There is a difference between a TV show with unlimited $$$$$ and labour vs the real world.
Amen to that. TV shows take clips from a year's worth of footage for a 60-minute show.
You are straight up killing it for all that you have going on ! What is your day job ?
I do IT work for local government
@@Thefabforums that's COOL I wish my hobbie was more different from my day job I am a service mechanic for a tank truck mfg company …….
Don't listen to the haters....I'm 5 years into my project car (89 Honda CRX).
There's always that problem called "LIFE" that slows us down.
do you do any drag racing with the goose?
I haven't in years. Drag racing used to be my main passion but as I have got older the creative side has taken over. I am sure the Goose will be back to track for some testing but dont have much interest in doing what it takes to compete.
@@Thefabforums nice! that's cool i didn't know that. when i get my little truck all together i'm making a trip to see ya. maybe talk ya into a little run for fun.. lol keep making that killer content!
What lines does the wastegate connect to ?
Yeah if people only knew the balance. Not easy.tje shop is a great relaxing part most time though
Great video - whats is that tool calls to wrap around the pipe for mark up minutes 3:11 ? thank you .
Awesome video as always. Bibsters coming along nicely, especially with everything else you have going on. I think people outside the industry/hobby really do not realize the time commitment required to do these things.
Keep up the good work!
Here's a "It's Friday Fool you need this tool" idea. A nibbler.
Love it great idea 👍
I don’t do metal fab like you are doing l do fine wood working and I get the same stuff why is it taking so long da try it sometime nice job
Kyle by the looks of things you still have ROOM for a Lift and a engine lathe 14"X 48"and don't forget the 9"X42" mill 😁 Hey Kyle it's only 💰💰💰😨.
You got to love keyboard heroes
Hey nice video man , what band saw blade do you use? Thank you
Could you have just fabricated a "y" pipe connecting both hot sides into one Wastegate? Is that a "no-no"? Im currently doing a build and am trying to figure my wastegate situation out...
Just out of curiosity on the grill shell, is it possible to fab a dual purpose air damn/shell?
dope
It took me 5 years to build my 5 window on the same schedule but everything was right and was turn key when last bolts installed, screw the naysayers.
It gets done when it gets done...
Please post a link to the little guide tool you slapped around the tube to mark a straight line!
it was just an old slap bracelet
Fab what waste gate brand are you using
Who cares wht they say man dudes aint doing crap but finding things to talk down on no work just negative comments is what they do the only thing that matters to me ars the pointers u give and the end product so to all the haters out there shut it and go do work S O N !
Just imagine taking all that stuff off to weld it. Also test fitting it. That's why fabricator charge a pretty penny or shops for custom work. Keep up the amazing work, god bless. Why dont u become a fulltime youtuber? What is ur other job?
basically need the insurance for my family
yo fab what waste gates are those???????????
Where did you get those valve covers ? Speedway has two different sets of sheet metal covers like that but I'm not sure what the difference is.
ebay
Can't you holesaw down the center of the pipe you welded on so you don't have to dremel as much? And it'd be the size of the hole it needs to be
I may be able to. If I have a close hole saw bit I will give it a shot
cardboard brilliance!! some many times.. and i never thought of that!
We call it CAD. Cardboard Assisted Design.
@@chrisallen9154 that's awesome! Lol it's the little things that make one great!
Skip past the negative comments, so not worth fussing over. You go do work son....at the pace that fits You
Whats the name of the intro song please?
So not to many realize the work it takes to build a shop a house,move all yer stuff get the old house ready to sell, find a buyer, make that happen then back to the new house and shop because you didn’t finish doing that all the way and all the little nonsense in between 😬🥵
yeah even I didnt realize what I was in for
Ha ha. I get called gay because I swapped a jz into a foxbody. Then in person it’s nothing but love. I laugh at it. 😂
Fuck the sooks mate, my 6 week project has blown out to 4 months, and I don't have a family to look after😂
👍👍👍🙌
Are you going to cut off the flanges off the headers. they keep poking me in the eye.
yeah
🔥👌👍💯
What kind of wastegate setup?
twin 38's I think
