in almost every episode on this channel where i have the supra in the background
people blow up the comments section asking me to do a video where i show
more of this car i haven't had anything exciting enough
to put this car in until now
this is my toyota supra in its entirety
this car has been in the garage for quite some time now it's a long story
I had a triple disc carbon carbon lightweight clutch assembly
paired up with a huge turbo and a 100 millimeter throttle body giant
and to give you an example how big that is
i came up with the idea to mount the camera inside the intake manifold of the
supra a few months ago when i was switching over from 100
millimeter throttle body to this 75 millimeter throttle body
right here i thought it would be really cool and interesting to see
what's going on inside the intake manifold
as i drive around the city the way i normally do and that includes a lot of
wide open throttle
well it looks pretty cool in there oh man check that out
you can see all those velocity stacks
i'm all done i got the gopro inside the intake manifold
it looks amazing check it out it's a little glitchy but
that is our point of view so now the next thing i'm going to do
i'm going to get in the car start it up and uh go for a drive this is going to
be super interesting to see how the throttle body is working if you
can hear the turbo through all of that intercooler piping
because that's directly connected to the throttle body
and i'm also really curious to see what the air is doing inside the intake
i'm only going to run about 14 to 16 pounds of boost i'm a little worried
about those back two cylinders because the gopro is like right in the
way of the airflow coming into the intake
but i am curious to see what happens with that air
inside the intake when it goes from about 15 pounds of boost
right into a vacuum when i let off of the accelerator
and another cool thing is we can see right into that number four cylinder we
can see the two valves the two ports the injector right on top
and the intake runner and the velocity stack
came out way better than i thought let me get this thing started up let it warm
up and then hit the road

i'm gonna just drive easy and then i'm gonna do a few
full throttle runs and uh that's my plan

Watch it Again
This run was at 1.5 Bar
let's get this gopro out of the intake i'm assuming
maybe the camera overheated because uh yeah it just won't connect
here's the gopro and uh yeah this sucker is hot
and i know i'm touching with my hands it's about i don't know maybe 200
degrees it's not that hot because it's plastic
and like it's like rubberized plastic but what i found really interesting is
look at the back screen now the gopro turned off i got most of
the footage but if you look at the back screen
there's like a weird oil pattern where like there's only oil
in the top and the bottom of the gopro and in the middle i don't know there's
like no oil there it's just i found that weird that it has like that weird
pattern on there but if i touch the glass it
will burn me it's very hot pretty impressive that these gopros
could take this much abuse i mean this thing
i don't know where all that oil is coming from or if that smells like
oil to me all that oil wasn't in the intake when i started it up but uh
it is now interesting i'm gonna look into that that's for sure
i don't know what that oil is from but that was really amazing footage
the smile on my face was from ear to ear when i pulled the gopro out of the
intake and i saw how cool that looked when i did that burnout
i've never seen anything like that before but that being said
i didn't push it any further simply because i didn't want to damage the
engine i don't know what's going on in those
back two cylinders having this gopro in the way
and before anybody goes and tries to mount the gopro inside the intake
manifold of their car i actually built some very specialized
rigging to make this happen which took me about
three or four days that i didn't show on camera don't be mad about that
that's just how i get things done and how i get some of these really cool
shots but that being said don't try to mount a
gopro in the intake of your car unless you call me first so that was
really amazing tell me what you think in the comments
below and that's all i got for you in this episode this episode was all about
the footage and just mounting a gopro inside the intake
manifold of the supra so thanks for watching
check out all the other videos on this channel
see you soon
I ended up Finding out that the oil was power steering fluid
coming from the power steering vacuum switch
which is bypassing power steering fluid from
the pump into the tube connected to the intake manifold
everybody thinks having a thousand horsepower car on the street is a blast
to drive and that's true sometimes but i think
the most pleasurable driving experience lies in between the drivability of the
car and how much power it's making
