We're doing a 125cc TURBO swap! ukposts.info/have/v-deo/ept5ipeJe3tyzY0.html

The thrust bearing inside the turbo requires oil pressure to keep the impeller shaft floating in a film of oil otherwise it contacts and wears

I agree the turbo placement looks awesome, but you'd probably find it more efficient bolting it to the intake. That'll give room for the expansion chamber, while offering instant response.

I can't believe this actually WORKED?! 🤣Should we do a part 2 with boost gauge etc? We need to paint the frame too 🤔

I used to get into 2 stroke rc cars, I would think a bigger expansion chamber would help. You could maybe loose the gasket under the cylinder to get a little more compression (use some goo instead and check the piston isn’t going to touch the top of the cylinder). Not sure how the clutch works in that thing, in the rc cars they were two half’s held by a spring. We would use a heavier spring so the clutch would engage at higher rpm’s. 🤷🏽‍♂️

So good, I saw your thumbnail the other day, so Sunday morning got into the garage and finally welded my LCA to my 50cc drift quad. Still need supports and then chop the frame for the seat. But getting there. Love the tiny turbo!!

Every engine needs a expansion chamber tuned to its timing and rev range an displacement you can do your search.

Put nitrous on it

Another killer vid mikey!! Cheers mate, looked super fun!

A turbo 212cc 4 stroke would be even more insane! And tap a inlet and drain like that go to the bottom of the block in the oil "sump". Since 2 strokes dont have an oil sump, you couldnt get any heat relief from the hot oil inside the turbo. With. 4 stroke you would even be able to add an oil cooler in theory (which would cool the MOTOR down from the high pressure intake AND the turbo). Im surprised it worked using the same fueling as it did with n/a. Wow VERY cool many!!

Good job busting the myth of being able to turbo a 2 smoker. Me and my dad did it to a twin cylinder 440 jag smowmobile about 9yrs ago. It definitely works and definitely makes power! Awesome job man. New sub from me.

Yes you can turbo 2 strokes.. I live in lake havasu city, az, USA and I've turbo charged so many 2 strikes even in the 125f degree weather and they love it. Remember to use a 2 cable throttle cable so it dosent run away from you

If you'd want to make a 2 stroke exhaust that actually works well, you'd have to use a 2 stroke exhaust "tool"/calculator to get the correct measurements for the exhaust.

The homemade expansion chamber is not very good because the shape, curve, length and every other factor has to be considered for it to work. They are specially designed so that the exhaust gasses push any remaining fuel from the exhaust back into the cylinder. I suggest you get an expansion chamber of like a 50cc 2-stroke moped and use that. Expansion chambers can like triple the power output at high rpms.

I worked on tiny 2 strokes for years just out of my garage and the biggest and best horsepower upgrades were aluminium motors with bigger carbis top speed 80km an hour with my worked 50cc iron and 95km with the 73cc iron but over 110kmph top speed with aluminium lighter has such a significant effect when so small

Mike lake you savage! Look at how many like this video has!!! Bro I’ve been a sub since the bmw swapped, supercharged Corolla! You have grown my boy and my man I am so proud of you! Don’t stop baby don’t stop! Love from Nz

Very cool looking forward to future progress with this

you can definitely turbo a 2 stroke if your carb is a float bowl type you need to feed boost into the carb vent if its a diaphragm type its not necessary

😂 that's the basic of 2 stroke engine! An expansion! But have to be specific misure!😅 That's not an expansion, that's a swollen pipe!😂 It looks amazing anyway!😎 Good luck!

Expansion chambers on 2 strokes can't just be guessed at. There as important as tuning a cars ECU. Length of pipe between the carb and chamber, Chamber to turbo and exit. Cool little build. I've built many.

You need an external oil system or the turbo won't last. I give it a couple of days before it lets go. There needs to be oil pressure in the bearings in order for the shaft to not come in contact with them. They need to float in oil not just sit in stagnant oil.

I’m great at tuning those engines! I want to build one now

Haha that's awesome love flutter ❤ good work mate that's what life about having fun just giving it a go 😎✌️

SOUNDS GREAT

Cheers for dropping this on my birthday 👌 few ideas, put a dose pipe on the intake of the turbo, fiddle around with the length and maybe we can hear some vl turbo dose noises coming outa this thing Also, see of you can hook up a wideband to this thing, its probably leaning out as I imagine the boost will push the fuel out of the carb, maybe add a vacuum line from the charge pipe to the fuel tank so that there is no pressure differential in the carb Make a new dump pipe where it separates the wastegate opening then have a muffler and a screamer pipe Im half tempted to go buy a little pocket rocket and try this stuff now 😂

Happy trails, Cowpoke

May God Bless And Be With You All Throughout Your Journey And All Throughout All Of Your Time Building Cars 💙

I build chainsaws and .020" squish is usually good to boost compression and port work. Nitros works as well. Cheers

If you really want to increase the power, you need to port it. Something like a wieder exhaust port and a higher exhaust Timings. Then you need a different expansion chamber. In general the champer should be shorter, but it must be tuned for your setup. You can also bore out the carburator or get a bigger one.

STUUTUUSTUUSTUU!🔥

did you play around with the ignitiontiming and colder spark plugs?

Hey brother, the only thing I would say is it’s a beautiful thing I would do is one I’ll get a different engine and make it a little bit more powerful I understand you like tiny motors. It’s really efficient and everything else but you’re doing the turbo outside, throw much bigger engine on it For stroke 110 engine so you can get rid of toppers and probably make something a lot better but you do have to worry about the field mixture and everything else then but if you need some help with that. Just talk to me.

Oil cooler, diesel fuel pump, very light weight oil, and oil catch can. Also a 12v source to power the fuel pump. Fill the catch can with oil. Bottom drain of catch can goes to fuel pump. Fuel pump, pumps the oil through the turbo. Drain of turbo runs to oil cooler inlet. Outlet of oil cooler goes to top port of catch can. Since you are adding a 12v source to power the fuel pump you can also add a small 12v oil cooler fan to the oil cooler.

i made a small turbo for a rc car and they run like a 2stroke and it worked i was supprised because alot people say you cant turbo them but it seem that you can

did you add the boost sound to the video or make it realy the sound ?

Cool dude this go kart rocks🤘

Well done lad

That turbo on there looks awesome

Can you use reed valves on the intake with a turbo? Also you might want to run it slightly on the rich side so it keeps the engine cooler

That's so awesome!!

Epic mate 🤙

You can probably make even more power if you use a real two stroke exhaust pipe from a moped. If you want to make it faster and I would recommend to engine swap it with a Yamaha yz 80 or Honda cr 80 engine and make a shifter drift kart.🤔 Very cool project!

Hi Mike, thanks for posting this video

OP modification bro 👍💪🥶

Hey Mike u will have to change the needle position too to get some more fuel in will run better too since u turboed a 4 wheeler

build an airbox that houses the whole carb, and boost into the airbox, you are having trouble with the pressure differance as its not a blow trough carb. pull the piston out cut it up to remove the piston port and make it reed induction, so that the turbo has more time to fill up the cranckase and cylinder.

Great job bud...sheesh I had just as much fun watching this vid as you did building it. Where did you get the mini turbo from? I wanna put one on my kit bike.

hey mike, the turbo flutter on the 2stroke was pretty awesome lol

I’m bout to pick up the same quad just because of this

lets go mate u told me it would be here today thanks for being honest. great Vid

Next video: "We slap a turbo on a ROCKET SHIP" 😂😂 Also i absolutly love that tiny air filter, adorable

ive wanted to throw a turbo on my 2 stroke jet ski this gives me hope it might work

If you think that's sketchy try doing the down hill drift trike on Okemo mountain! VT💪🏻

Thats wicked you've inspired me!

This takes me back to the time i shaw a turbo gy6 scooter racing and winning against faster cars like whaaaat

you should have a carbon seal installed in the turbocharger for a draw through carburetor system ideally!

thats insane

Why not get a pump and tank for oiling the turbo not a hard system to build fyi best to put carb behind turbo and using starter fluid to bump it off on first start

a new car. turbocharged motorcycles. I agree that the turbo placement looks great, but you'll probably find it more effective to mount it to the intake. The turbo needs oil pressure to keep the impeller shaft floating in the oil film, otherwise it will become exposed and worn.

Will a compound turbo improve performance?

look into taking an expansion chamber off another quality brand 50cc-80cc bike engine to fabricate the manifold from. Not sure if anyone has said it yet in your comments but its good to add an air capacitor to help hold the boost in the charge pipe, about 200cc-250cc volume for your engine. Also blow through setups work well, just focus on getting it running well off boost first, and add a pitot tube with a straight section somewhere in it, and plumb it into the vent for the bowl. And last its common add a boost nipple somewhere to pressurize the gas tank when boosting. I dont think the turbo will last too long if everything else works right since the oil u put in there will never get a chance to cool down without circulation(the oil helps cool the turbo too), i would get a cheap fuel pump and make a small oil drain tank to scavenge oil from and drain to, just dont test it too hard before you get to doing this lol

i wonder if u could put either daul motor or super charger

Love the sound of it dumping

They do turbo 2 strokes.. for snowmobiles.. I suggest u build an oil system for iT with a pump or the turbo won't last

How does that carb not spew fuel everywhere when the bowl gets pressurized under boost? My understanding is that carb turbo applications need a sealed carb and boost referenced float bowl and/or fuel pressure to contain the boost so it doesn't simply blow the fuel back through the jets into the bowl, which is vented to atmosphere. The only thing I can think is it's simply not even making enough boost to cause fuel problems, which means not much at all considering how little the carb is....any thoughts?

The little waste gate sound is much needed

Larger expansion chamber on the exhaust should help it rev a bit more because total exhaust volume will be larger allowing more total exhaust out but at sacrifice of lower rpm and mid range power

Cheers Mike ,, I reckon throw the other carby on the front of the turbo, , twin carb turbo drift cart🏎💨💨💨

you should get the 19mm carb with the uprated intake for this so the carb isnt a huge restriction

hey my dude, won't the boost push the fuel back into the fueltank, since a carb works with the venturi effect, what builds a slight vacuum to pull the fuel into the carb?

If you can somehow make a smaller exhaust straight pipe it may create more compression I did it to my Yamaha banshee it added compression and sounds good

Lol this is so much like my budget drift kart! Same base quad too lol. Ive just swapped a gx200 clone motor. 100$ for 6,5hp

You should make coloured smoke on the wheels, that would be sick

THIS IS SO COOOOOL :)

My chevy cruze 1.4t 2016 has a 31mm opening on the intake of my turbo, stock

u should get one of those scooping filers for the turbo and maybe make a better expansion exhaust and intake or probably upgrade the engine like a big bore kit or sum for the turbo to work better cuz i lowkey wanna see the limits of that engine

Does it feal faster? I am just wondering for a vary simular project.

How dose it sputter how did you get it to do that

¿Que turbo es ese? Por favor el link de compra 🛒!

The world's cutest turbo 😂its a key chain bro

Could you put a oil system of the crank. Tank radiator and pump of the shaft. To cool down the turbo? More guys. Please. Thank you. Do the Max. Think out of the box guys. ❤

Nice work. Your not a nob either which is great :) New subscriber.

I wanna see 2 of these on a little 4 cylinder

I was thinking if you could use the Honda Dio engine and the CVT too

Possible to compound or twin turbo this thing???

I can’t see any other comments mentioning this and I could be wrong but I don’t think I am. Shouldn’t the fuel bowl be at the same pressure as the boost pressure? And the fuel pressure needs to increase according to the boost pressure so that the fuel bowl can fill. Otherwise the engine will lean out because the boost pressure is stopping fuel from entering the fuel bowl or if the fuel bowl isn’t boost referenced then the fuel won’t flow out of the jet as it should because there’s a lower pressure in the bowl than in the carb.

So good!

Can you put 4hk motor on it

Yes you can turbo 2 steoke.. tell me why it wont work ?

you earned a sub from me dude I need a turbo go kart to get around on

Look at snowmobiles ya there's Turbo Kit's we put on 2strokes

Put a bigger jet in the carb can get a windowed piston for it will go a lot harder

rig the pipes get a second mini turbo and make a head light kinda thing it would look sick

A instalação ficou muito boa, mais não me parece que mudou alguma coisa.

i need to buy a mini turbo for my kart too

You need a Normal resonator you can use from 50cc scoter or mini 2stroke dirt bike Expansion chamber has 60% power from all engine an if it works not on correct rpm engine can’t reach high speed Second you need a Flap valve this thing prevents emissions of gas from combustion chamber actually makes the same thing as a resonator But on intake

Not on topic but I love the z!♥️

Nice mate

Next you need to manufacture for sales 😂

Have thought about a small oil cooler on the turbo and I've been trying to find someone to help me build a sleeper to take on a favorite vehicle of everyone
