What is Ecrew? When I had to uproot and move to Indiana, there was a car community called Bcrew (B for Bloomington, Indiana). These guys became my family. Instead of partying on the weekends, I was working on cars- and I loved it. Since starting youtube, I have started what I call Ecrew. It's not supposed to be some childish "Logang squad." It's a community where you get to take 10min out of your day and be involved in a build, but more importantly it's a family.

I would not fix the bumper. I'd keep it as war scars. Too much character to throw away by fixing it.

Emelia... put a Fueltech FT600 on this car. Talk to Anderson Dick of Fueltech in Atlanta. He is Brazilian, a very nice person and owner of the company, has the headquarters of Fueltech USA in Atlanta.

As a real car person, I find the way you did this a bit amateur and obviously your turbo kit doesn’t work. I get you’re making videos but others have built better setups. Anyone can buy parts and bolt them on and blow shit up.

You need a donor car to fix that OE stuff if you can't get it from a dealership. Might as well buy a wrecked one and part it out, and keep what you need.

Good Angel: The C8 stock or mildly modified. Bad Angel: radically modified 800 to 1200 horsepower C8. One of these two, one gets to drive all the time. The other of these, the car is in the shop more than it's on the road and on the track. No Emelia, there is another middle ground. You don't have to park it in the garage all the time so it will run. Look at what Austin does. Drives the heck out of the car on the road and then drives the heck out of the car on the track. It is kind of cool to actually see the damage on the C8. It continues to be really cool to see you jump in their to take your car apart to get into the materials, wires, harnesses and lines that all were burned or melted. It's just that having a car built up from the ground up to attempt to build reliability into the car from the gate. Although race teams have traditionally run into this type of thing for decades. The other thing is that you jump in and start to correct and repair, and that is a real winning attitude so I want to reinforce that. Keep at it. As for my car, no more modifications. I need to be able to drive my C8 around the town or to the track or a gathering or a show or where ever. But, Girl; go, go, go! AF

don't call it phoenix, call it marshmallow, cause everybody knows when you try to perfectly toast a marshmallow it ends up burnt.

Hi love your channel, I'm not sure but im assuming you guys did have the largest hole drilled in both your Rocker covers with custom baffle fitted below where you's would have welded a female fitting & the same in your crankcase, then all hooked up to at least a 2 litre catch can, otherwise increase in boost is just gonna want to push your oil & find its way out onto your extremely hot exhaust?
