Budget Turbo Yukon: I Got the CHEAPEST Crossover Manifold on the Internet! Uncle Rob Gets a Hot Side

Watch on YouTube

What happens here

The new T4 crossover log manifold is placed into position on the engine for a preliminary fitment check. For this mock-up, no gasket is used, and only two bolts are hand-threaded to loosely secure it. The turbocharger is then temporarily positioned on the manifold. The creator identifies potential clearance issues with the coolant reservoir and the dipstick, noting that these components might need relocation or modification. Despite these minor issues, the initial placement of the turbo is deemed satisfactory.

Goal: Perform a preliminary fitment check of the new turbo manifold and turbocharger.

Tools and materials

  • T4 Crossover Log Manifold — Checking fitment onto the engine block
  • Turbocharger Coley — Checking fitment onto the manifold and within the engine bay

so let's go i'm not even going to put the gasket in and i'm only going to hand thread two bolts in just because we're doing this for mock-up i'm gonna build a turbo kit and then everyone's gonna come back apart and you know get reassembled the right way i honestly have no idea how this is going to fit on here so we're gonna see it looks like you know with the turbine housing clock the right way it'll put the turbo in about a perfect spot maybe have to get rid of this cap the long neck one for just a regular flush cap which by the way if you didn't know okay so you know you go like that or do it do it to do take this neck out here it's probably never been taken out in its life one of these i'm cool was them cool oh oh was that was that boom if you didn't know that you're welcome if you did just hear me here it's cool okay i think it's gonna fit pretty good we may have a little clearance issue with here i'm probably going to have to relocate this or make a new one or something uh this is probably going to have to move but this dipstick is about to break off of the block anyway so that's cool yeah i don't know this this a seam line may be able to survive here with some heat wrap bend it out of the way but we'll find out in a second that's basically how it's going to be dang yeah we're gonna have to move that well shoot that's pretty freaking clean the turbo
