Budget Turbo Yukon: Cold Side Fabrication and Hot Side Welding (Pipe Cutting & Layout Tips)

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The presenter introduces the project, which involves installing a turbocharger, intercooler, and custom charge pipes on a GMC Yukon. He points out the turbo's current position, the intercooler placement, and the general routing for the charge pipes. He also shows the pre-fabricated crossover pipe that needs final welding.

Goal: Understand the project scope and identify main components

Tools and materials

  • Charge Pipes — Custom-fabricated pipes to connect the turbo, intercooler, and throttle body
  • Crossover Pipe — Pre-fabricated exhaust pipe connecting manifolds
  • GMC Yukon GMC — The vehicle undergoing modification
  • Intercooler — Cools compressed air from the turbocharger before it enters the engine
  • Turbocharger — Boosts engine power, to be installed on the manifold

you know don't split a 45 right in the middle because then you end up with two of the same thing go off a little bit to one side so you have other stuff to try cut what you think is right just make the cut the less you think about it the better just trust your gut and start holding it up to other stuff that's how you make things and if you don't know that story that analogy with the teacher in the jar i don't know if you even grew up in america so back in texas i ran into pennsylvania to get to monte carlo it's all finished got a fresh paint job now you haven't seen that video go watch it we talk about a little bit i'm gonna do another video after this one uh going over the car and what happened to it during the accident i'll show you pictures and they took like 80 pictures during the like the fixing process of all the stuff they did which is pretty cool we'll go over all that all the stuff uh together in the next video but today we'll be working on uncle rob gonna you know keep plugging away on this thing we are going to build the charge pipe that goes from the turbo to the intercooler we're going to put that other charge pipe on and figure out where the blow-off valve is going to go and i'm also going to finish weld the crossover that i made once it's finished welded then i can put it in there and start to eye up where the wastegate is going to go
