I bought a 2007 Saturn Sky Redline for $4,500 a couple years ago. Gabe bought it after that and has been daily driving it since. The turbo decided it didn’t want to keep doing spinny magic after that, so he bought a kit to upgrade it along with everything to install it (well sort of). RPM Motorsports is updating the kit to include some or possibly all of the gaskets needed for the install so you’ll want to decided what all you need for your install. It likely won’t be all of these parts. Huge shoutout to them for listening to our feedback and trying to make this easier for the end user. Should be smooth sailing for you!

Found a Saturn Sky Red line in North Carolina (manual) in North Carolina with 42k
Need some time off work to make the deal…. I'll install the same kit.
Thank you.
Rtv? Really?? Just because others are doing ut doesn't make it right. After all that work. Other people jump off bridges as well…..hmmmm
Can i buy your stock intercooler
Doing this to a Kappa is a bad idea, imo. So many Kappa crashes are due to having super punchy torque that breaks the tire lose as horrible times and sends the vehicle out of control.
If you have the money, NA LS upgrade is the best way to go.
you probably found out that the "big wheel" turbo doesn't add any HP. all it does is stop the high rpm fall off the stock one does. The additional hp you got was from the tune and the tune alone. You could have gotten the extra ponies without replacing the turbo
Do I have to lift the engine 3" to be able to take out the Catalytic converter.
How does the factory-issued engine accomodate this add-on? I would be concerned about heat and residual heat generated by the turbo system.
Thanks for those links to the parts!
Sooooo final verdict ?
I’m confused. If you need the whole shopping list and they ‘fixed the kit’ did they add everything you guys put on the list or just the one copper gasket you needed and had to make.
Does anyone have the manufacturer/model info on the RPM turbo used and other components needed?
I like the Karate Kid shirt your buddy Gabe is wearing in your video
Probably I was living under rock I didn’t know those Pontiac’s had ecotec turbo
Is this car the same as an Opel speedster?
The red tubes add 10HP because they are “red”. But if you had just polished the stock tubes to a mirror finish it would have added 20HP. Just saying.
"Original and Extra-Crispy" Gabe has the best lines too : )
Glad to see Gabe, your friends are one of the best parts of your channel. Josh is a magician. Gabe has all-time best T-shirts !!
Saw some talk about this on the Forum…
I am here commenting to help you John Ross.
You should never delete a video, and reupload a second version.
Why?
Because the engagement on that new video will be lower, and YouTube will consequently lowers your ability to showcase your video on the home page and suggestions.
This will reduce your ability to earn new subscribers.
My advice is to reach out to companies before the video gets out, searching for an answer, and only release the video either after they get back to you, or after a week or so go by.
I leaved this video playing, liked it, and commented it to help you.
But not everyone will do that.
Thus, my advice is not to delete a video, and never reupload a new version of the same video.
JR and Gabe are hilarious with all their silly inside jokes and stuff.
