DIY Turbo Manifold: Mockup and Welding Jig

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

With the merge collector done, it's time to move on to the manifold mockup and welding jig. I 3D printed parts to model the various runners. Printed in ABS with a 0.6 mm nozzle and a 0.3 mm layer height (these ones worked - the 0.4 mm nozzle and 0.2 mm layer height were not great). I didn't spend big $$ on the parts and it looks like it will work.

    Great job. Struggled with the same process. Learnt that making a solid jig is the most important part. And quitted using 3d printed mockup pieces; now I design the tubes in CAD after the jig is done. Sometimes you need, lets say, 42° instead of 45° and it's hard to tell. But 3d printed cutting jigs are awesome and I use them all the time. Keep up the good work!

    Really really amazing work! I love the practical 3D printing. One observation about aluminium plate I found when machining is that a lot of stress is built up in the plate surface. When milling off the surface of plate of 20mm or less it tends to bend in the direction of the unmachined surface. You have to machine it 4 times to get the surfaces parallel. Top, bottom, top, bottom. So, first pass makes the thing go like a bananna. Second pass on the other side releases the stress on the other side so it'll go relatively flat again but the surfaces will still vary in thickness. Now the stress is released you can actualy do the top and bottom again to make them flat and parallel. Could get pretty frustrating if the plate was also wide enough to bend in 2 axes though!! We only had a 120mm facemill at our place.

    Great result! Those printed parts will be stronger if you tilt them in a angle when printing. Then the layers will go through the snap lock without making weak breaking points. I guess that's why the straight fittings was so brittle. Also the lenght and numbers of slots, between the snap lock, should be increased. You know when you bend a quarter of a tube, it will flatten at the bend. In the plastic print, these forces just rip the layers apart. Also, if you put some degrees of draft on the locking surfaces, it should be easier to get them apart as well, without breaking the snap lock.

    @@ThrottleStopGarage Yes, the end result was top notch. I have been in the plastic business for 25years, and making perfect snap-locks on the first try isn't always that easy. When making molds, I always make them too loose on purpose, since it is easier to make them stiffer when adjusting. When 3D printing, you want to make it stiff enough, and then remove excess plastic with a dremel etc. Keep the videos coming! I really enjoy them, and learn a lot by following you through this journey!

I did further refine a few runners once on the bench (next video) and that worked.

    i was thinking if maybe you've made the pieces for the manifold mockup with press fit neodym magnets they'd be easy to print and probably wouldn't fall apart as easily. you could still detach the individual pieces from each other without any problems by sliding them apart. I know this is kind of redundant now since the manifold is already built but maybe its something to consider if you plan to build another one in the future

    The ICE Engine Works modelling kit is $550 at Summit Racing, and the expansion kits are $89 - $99 each. I know zero about 3D printing, so I can't say how that compares to the cost of a 3D printer rig capable of making your DIY modelling elbows (plus consumables).

    Interesting question. To get this done I would have needed to get the larger kit - it's $900 - but either way let's settle on $650 and see where we get. The printer was $250 (and I made the first parts with that machine). I also designed and printed the cutting jigs (those are a couple of hundred dollars each if you buy them) so I'm guessing tooling (store bought jigs and lego blocks) would set you back $1000. I've made headers before and did it without blocks or cut jigs and it was fine. It did take more time and was less precise - and these blocks and jigs really do make it easier to do. 3D printing isn't very turn-key and printing ABS is a challenge...but I've done all that learning and working out best practices to the point that I switch my printer on and tell it to print and I walk away. I've done a lot of printing - I need parts for my real job, I use it for prototyping parts for the car - lots of stuff. I average 8-10 kgs of filament per year. Newer 3D printers are better than what I started with. Filament to do the parts was about $100. So if I was doing this for real - hands down buy the real thing. No question. If you're making one every once in a while and have other uses for the printer and don't mind tinkering with the process - do it that way. When I go to do the exhaust - I'll just print out 3" models. Cost - less than $50. I need lots of other little parts here and there...just print them.

    can I ask you how you calculated the runner length of each tube? or more specifically, how you work out the length of the elbow sections? i have been using the radius to the center for the tube, then working out the circumstances dividing that by 360 and then multiple that by what ever angle ive cut (so basically a line running down the center of the tube) but i am trying to mock up the last 2 runners which ended up too long so ive been trying to shorten it by making it a straighter run (so removing bends and doing a long straight section) and the calculated "lenght" is get longer but i am visibly making it shorter, I've been scratching my head for the last 3hours trying to figure out where i went wrong. could you help me? love the channel by the way, I was inspired to make my own exhaust manifold after watching your videos. The info has been very helpful, thanks. my next project is the intake manifold with a carbon fibre plenum 👍

    Each bend has a centre line radius and you know how many of the parts as well as straights you've used. That gives you the length. It's just adding up the various blocks.

    LOving the content! broke down and got a 3d printer myself to help with things. question: what size am I scaling the parts to in order to get the size you've achieved? when I open the 3d files you have posted on thingiverse in my slicing software (cura) the models are tiny and require scaling up to be viable. basically what should the axis mm values be for the weld el body model to scale properly and fit the piping thank you so much!

    Ah - sorry about that...I designed these before I was print savy. Set the scale to 2540 - that will convert the units to correct size (they were drawn in imperial and Cura is only metric). Are you printing in ABS? If so - get a PEI sheet to print on and measure your print bed thermal offset. Test the surface temperature and adjust in Cura until you get 100º C at the bed surface (my offset is 20º C and I heat with an AC heater because it's a lot saver (separate PID controller). Get a 0.6 mm nozzle.

    Now, I don't want to discourage you, but from what Turbo Yoda of "Mighty Car Mods" and "The Skid Factory" fame has said, a log style manifold wouldn't perform very much worse at all in a turbo application... And it would make packaging and manufacturing much easier! You could even keep the inner fender maybe?

    Not at all discouraged - in 2016 Mercedes ran a log on the first generation turbo hybrid F1 car. It works. Everyone knows that...but after having heat problems, in 2017 Merc went to a tuned header. There are also very good reasons to go tuned length. Oh, that fender had to go regardless of log or not - it's just in the way.

    Out of curiosity, why you did this process instead of designing the header in CAD, test printing in ABS as a single unit, and then using a lost-wax castable 3d print material for a cast header? I image the answer has to do with the size of your printer and not having a forge to do cast iron or steel at home :)

    Thank you for running thru the process. It is a lot of work. When I did mine I spent the 800 usd for the commercially available. As you point out the time to print, rework and failure all take time and you have to factor in the cost of that. I used mandrel bent U bend, so the purchased ones have clocking witness marks built in so you can see if you are cheating the bend with rotation. Great pointer on mounting the merge collector firmly and in it's happy place, or you just end up chasing your tail. Very nice jig fixture. Much better that attaching the head flange to a table because you can spin the part and not have to work around the table. The aluminum also acts a nice heat sink up to a point. Glad you showed the amount of touch time and illustrate why well fabricated custom manifolds are not cheap. Only took me 2 1/2 years to do my build. saabrally.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=3863
