Billet wheels are a lot better than cast wheels for a bunch of reasons! Billet wheels are much stronger than cast wheels for one! Cast wheels can get tiny minute bubbles in the metal when being made & that in its self makes them weaker! Billet wheels are made a lot thinner than cast cause of how strong billet is & that means they’re a lot lighter, which means they can spool quicker & handle more of a beaten! They stay cooler than cast as well because they are thinner! Billet Vs. cast anything is always superior! Lastly because they’re made on a 5 axis milling machine, they can be made to be more aggressive & efficient!

as someone who has done a ton of my own research into the IWG EFR configurations I think some of the complaints about the IWG's are really stemming back from the early days. Now Turbosmart offers single and dual port IWG actuators with interchangable springs to fine tune the IWG. My application being an EJ25 powered STI, is known for very high exhaust back pressure. early on there were people blowing the high boost actuators open with less boost than the minimum on the spring. the dual port actuator helps solve a lot of those issues. the dual port essentially functions like an EWG as youre able to pressurize the top and bottom of the diaphragm. I would like to monitor pressure at the turbine housing and maybe i can get that in before the car goes to tune. ill be running the following set up to optimize the EFR for my 300-350whp goal 2005 STI, 5,000'-10,000' elevation, pump 91, stock cams, stock ports -EFR6758 T25/iwg .64 A/R -Turbosmart Oil Pressure Regulator 40psi P# TS-0801-1002 -Turbosmart GEN-V dual port EFR IWG actuator P# TS-0620-4012 -Turbosmart 4 port EBCS P# TS-0301-2003 -Turbosmart Kompact 34mm recirc valve P# TS-0203-1223 -SX-E Style comp cover 3.5" inlet w/anti surge P# 11671013004 -Vibrant 6" to 3.5" Velocity stack P# 10952 -Vibrant Air filter P# 10960

Garrett's turbine exhaust flow charts.....I noticed that you can use Borg Warners turbo selector (Match Bot) to produce exhaust flow numbers (lbs/min) which can then be used in the charts. How do you correctly use that data along with the charts when choosing different A/R housings? I assume you would need to chose a housing where all the points fall below the lines(pressure ratio by turbine flow) in the chart? Or does something else factor in? thanks!

This was a masterful class💪 thank you Andre and the HPA team for this. I must admit that i was always thinking i should figure out first, how much CFM of air any given engine could pump out at it's redline RPM, then find a turbo that could support double that CFM of air regardless of it would be used or not. I've owned the book "Maximum Boost" by Corky Bell since maybe 2002 and it's a great read and i never lend it out. That's where i learned most of my understanding on building turbo systems. I have a Dodge 2.4L, 4 banger that i plan on putting a GT3582R on. I'm hearing how it will take forever to get to it's boost threshold and that worries me a bit. I used to have a Turbonetics T3\T4 stage 2 on that engine and it made 336whp. The surge map portion was great and i feel that i understand it better. Greg @ car passion for a great lesson on the surge map that helped me as well. I have a question, when the exhaust manifold pressure is equal to or greater than the intake manifold boost pressure, will the vehicle feel like it hit a wall in the sense of not noticably accelerating or pulling as hard?

@weduhpeople8504 Жыл бұрын

Borg Warner with the introduction of their EFR series has significantly changed the turbo charger’s performance by using gamma- ti turbine wheels being lighter which allows for a very fast transient response that helps get back on boost into the power and torque curve between shifts. Besides improved aerodynamics and lighter materials is the use of the very low friction ceramic ball bearings. They also engineered their chra for racing demands while also improving the seal using piston style rings and steel cages for the ball bearings. Not sure if they’re still using investment cast aluminum turbine housings which was really an improvement from the heavier cast iron turbine housing. The only con is the race grade chra is alot wider than the Garrett g series in equivalent turbo sizes. Garrett g series has improved performance using the M mar made for extreme high heat as well as improved aerodynamics and wheel size and shape of the fins.

@phantomflame0658 11 ай бұрын

Yep with the EFR you can get away with essentially oversizing the turbo (or atleast going for a bit higher A/R ratio housing) due to the extremely efficient design meaning you still get great response and spool, and have a very strong top-end.

@bmxriderforlife1234 9 ай бұрын

@phantomflame0658 hmmm this might be useful for insanity build plan I have. K48 engine twincharged. Oversized underdriven superchargers positive displacement. Big turbos(for essentially a 2.1 cylinder)that'll flow enough and still make enough boost that it can be compounded by the super to make the final boost I want plus more. But flatplane crank helps spool, hotvee helps spooling as they both help scavenging. Twincharger can as well via pressure differences at intake vs exhaust back pressure, while also helping detonation thresholds with just a bit of controlled valve overlap but also helps spool and cooling. Was trying to decide on turbos. Not picky. Bur gonna need alot of wastegate and blowout valve. Oh while also keeping the two stages at peak effiency and sizing and choice for other effiency. Using ac powered water to air charge cooling set up for both packaging reasons and the ridiculous sub ambient intake temps. Density flow pressure all controllable. But also gonna help cooling the combustion chamber further. Cold intake air air pressure and density being pushed into exhaust manifold with hot fresh exhaust gasses. Heat expands air. More pressure. Better turbo spool. Also helps detonation. And already working out plans to help the head and valve train plus try and get full clearance back for the vtec timing adjustments.

The Honda K24 can be pretty high flowing as standard or slightly modified. I feel like turbo matching is difficult when we are talking about lower horsepower figures since you are basically scraping along the bottom of all compressor maps and falling out of them at higher rpms. Is there any good turbo for the K24 as a low powered ~350 crank hp engine at about 7-8psi (high flow at low PR)? Looking at many compressor maps they seem to be aimed at pretty poorly flowing engines making something in the region of 85hp/l...

@user-nf3oq2ge3g 9 ай бұрын

We all know for a turbo to reach full potential you need forged (quality made) rods, forged pistons, balanced assembly by a pro that actually knows what they are doing. And with more air we need fuel on demand any rpm at any time. Do not scrimp on fuel. Just rip the whole factory system out and replace with nice ethanol rated line I’d say min 25% bigger but realistically do the math on your pump and fuel usage at full throttle high demand and figure out how much pump you need and then at a 20% min over so the pump is working in its efficiency range and then a good tune. Tune doesn’t do shit unless your fuel does what you want with no limit. Or go cheap and have 2 Subaru motors now, both 2 cylinders sitting in the hood about 6” apart.

@aywall5905 Жыл бұрын

@1:08:50 I would like to also add that BIGGER turbos over standard size turbos that come with cars COULD also improve MPG because keeping your car out of boost esp while cruising in highway will improve MPG simply based on by tuning you could reduce the amount of fuel your car will need at (in my case as far as my EVO 9 goes) i hit full boost at 5200rpm with my 6875 PTE turbo so i wouldnt need all the fuel at 3000-4800 rpms that a stock size evo 9 turbo engine would need because of boost basically i wouldnt be boosting at such low rpms doesnt mean i wont be in boost if i hit the gas but my boost levels would be minimal 1-5psi as compared to oem size turbo which would be at about 10+ psi at those rpm levels.

Wait, would it be that different though? 15 psi is wayyyyyy below choke flow for both of those turbos so I would expect almost the same power between a gt30 and gt42 on a 2 liter 4g at least through the stock redline. Maybe if you're running 11k+ you'll start choking that gt30 hot side and see the power fall off where the gt42 is still holding strong. Obviously the low rpm stuff will be quite different as the gt42 will be much laggy. What you really want to do to determine if there's gonna be a big power difference is plot your compressor operating point vs engine rpm (lug line) on the respective compressor maps and calculate the power the compressors consume in both cases. Then, you would add your fuel mass to your air mass and have to estimate your egts based on important engine parameters (ignition timing, cam profiles, etc) and calculate the required expansion ratio required to generate the power your compressor needs. Then the comparison between those expansion ratios would tell you if one is going to significantly overpower the other. Or use advanced software that does it for you like gt power or ricardo wave etc. As that's wayyyy easier. To use your breathing analogy, if you exhale through a coffee straw versus a normal straw you'll feel a difference, but if you exhale through a 5" pvc pipe versus an 8" pvc pipe you won't feel a difference. Neither of those turbos should be wasted on so little boost. Edit: watched the whole video and see you went over boost advisor and boost bot. These are easier ways to do matching but make a ton of assumptions.

@BoostWang 2 жыл бұрын

Andre, If you had an auxiliary part that can force an increased velocity of exhaust gases in lower RPM's to drive the turbine ratio up higher in ways that is not naturally possible given a displacement, E.G, a Quick spool valve - it would normally plot the compressor into the surge zone correct? Since a WOT surge is having air mass being backed up against the compressor instead of flowing into the combustion chamber, can the surging be solved by changes to an engine's physical air mass capabilities E.G, cylinder head porting? Or is it simply futile to try to reap the benefits of a large compressor, if you had a method to manipulate the velocity of exhaust gases in lower RPM regions, because the surge zone on paper would actually dicate that it would surge on any engine?

I am not familiar with your specific car sorry but for a car that has been around a while you should be able to find some off the shelf kits and see what they address to make such power levels as well as what they include. From there you can buy the parts that make up the kit one at a time when and as you see a deal to do it the cheapest way possible. The quickest and most simple way is to just buy such kits, again noting this is assuming they are ones that have been well tested and reviewed over the years, as not all kits are made equal! Don't forget the engine management side of things and to make sure you double double check the limits of your driveline etc. No point making 400whp if your transmission is likely to grenade at anything over 360whp for example - Taz.

I have a k24a2 that's got a fully built bottom end utilizing a stock top end except it has springs and retainers. It's a street build so I wanted something that can drive nicely on the street and be reliable. It has stock cams etc. Only thing done to the cylinder head is titanium springs and retainers. It has a precision 6875 T4 .96 ar housing. The car made 676whp on the dyno at 29psi. Ok Here is my problem haha... my friend has a similar build everything basically the same except that he has a smaller turbo. He has a pulsar 3584r T4 and he made 760whp at 29psi, same psi that I told my tuner to leave it at. We both have the same tuner as well. We are talking about 80hp difference and he has a smaller turbo then me. My tuner told me that at 29psi, my precision 6875 is not where it shines and would require more boost somewhere along the line of 38+ psi where it starts to really rock. My question is, is it possible that with a larger turbo like my 6875 at 29psi, its not efficient and a smaller turbo would be more efficient in this psi range and have you ever seen anything like that before as a tuner. I hope i explained everything properly. Idk man i just find it very hard to believe how my buddy with a very similar build as mine is making 80hp more then my setup using a smaller turbo.

depends what those restrictions are, you need to remember the point of a wastegate is to vent excess exhaust gas to maintain a given turbine shaft speed and thus boost pressure for your application. If you are tapped out on the turbo and physically cannot spin it any faster or youre that far out of the efficiency map that you cannot make more power per psi than an external gate is NOT going to do anything.

@GroovesAndLands 2 жыл бұрын

I don't see why not. This would make an interesting test. Build a hybrid turbo with an 800hp capable compressor - with a 0.63 T3 exhaust side. Install 3 or 4 big external wastegates that have enough flow to accomodate 800hp worth of exhaust. Why wouldn't this allow for super fast spool on account of the tiny turbine, but no uneccessary backpressure up top? Obviously you'd be wastegating 90% of the exhaust...

@ho6b9s 2 жыл бұрын

@@GroovesAndLands I think the main issue with this type of setup is trying to get the turbine to spin at the speed necessary to drive that 800hp worth of compressor. The more exhaust that gets wastegated, the less drives the turbine. It may take that full exhaust manifold pressure to drive the turbine hard enough (if it can even handle the speed). Still, very interesting theory I'd like to see explored. .63 housing on a 35R size turbo with like a 60mm wastegate doesn't seem particularly abnormal to fit (depending on the chassis), and you could neck it down to compare to a 40mm gate.

If you want to run a Turbocharger a supercharger how to mach for maximum horsepower

@Gidanski 2 жыл бұрын

So what about a High comp/large turbo E85 build? Will some of the downsides of the larger running a larger than recommended turbocharger (Eg something like a GTX3584 or G35-900 on a 2l) be offset by the higher EGT's (Comp) and more mass flow of running E85 compared to regular petrol?

It would be a dog until late in the rpm range. High compression high boost would be fun but a huge turbo would produce extreme cylinder pressures. Have you looked into using small nitrous shots to help spool oversized turbos? This way you can build the engine to handle the huge turbo while patching up your low end torque.

@@RwP223 With what I was thinking it wouldn't actually be that bad as a car to drive from stoplight to stoplight, think mildly tuned NA car that if poked will try to rip your face off. Also Nitrous on a actually 100% legitimate legal street car isn't a thing where I live, and if you're racing on a track day chances are you can keep the engine up where the turbo stays somewhat responsive anyway.

Could try methanol for racing and ethanol on the street. I know for sure all the extra methanol could get a somewhat oversized turbo spooled up and can handle high comp and boost

It has NOT been my experience that 15psi from two different turbochargers makes a "vast difference" in power, until you are in sizing territory that is extreme for the engine. Assuming both turbos are relatively efficient at producing suitable airflow for the boost pressure, both engines will make very similar power.... Again, unless there are WILD differences in EMAP. If one turbo makes the boost pressure with a MAP/EMAP of 0.75:1 and the other turbo does it with a MAP/EMAP of 3:1 - yes there will be a big power difference. But this would imply wildly different (and extreme) turbo sizes - neither of which is suitable for engine to begin with.

The example he gave though, (3076 vs a GT4202) would be a vast difference at the same boost in regards to peak power at least.

Perhaps not a vast difference in outright power, however, the same turbo with different AR can provide noticeable difference in performance on a car built for circuit racing. E.g. I found that a GTX2867R with .64AR provided superior performance over the entire rev range over a .86AR. The .86AR version could provide a higher peak output whereas the .64AR provided less lag and could provide more overall (not peak) power across a wider range of the RPM. This was on the 2.0l F4RT engine. So sizing considerations in this instance can make significant differences on track.

@@DOO00K No argument there. I'm just saying that 100kPa boost is gonna generate the same amount of torque (give or take a few fiddlebees) regardless of what turbo it's coming from - that is, unless the hot sides create WILDLY different EMAP

If performance doesn’t change between turbo sizes, then something isn’t optimized. Even the idea that there is a “too big” turbo is subjective. Some people have a 40mm turbo on a 2.0L and some have an 86mm turbo on a 2.0L. Optimize it for your needs. There is no sweet spot where turbos are too small/big, or all the same. The world of hybrid T3/T4 turbos 20 years ago lead to people creating imbalanced turbos trying to cheat physics. T3 housings bored out for T4 turbine wheels were awful and so were huge compressor wheels packed into factory compressor covers. They are still bad today but people don’t want to change fitment.

Think you could go into greater detail on diesel turbo selection? I tried making an account on garret to use their turbo selection guide but seems you need to be a dealer or something. I'm currently working on a project 2011 bmw 335d and have a custom t3 turbo manifold made by diesel pump uk..... ill be using their quick spool valve as well but my goal is 600hp to the tires with the fastest spool I can get though I'm aware I'll have a higher boost threshold but I'd still like the best option I can but finding 3.0 diesel results is proving almost impossible.

I believe his point was to draw a distinction between surge/boost threshold as the minimum flow to begin building boost under steady state conditions and lag as the effects of rotational inertia on boost responsiveness. By that definition they are two very different concepts

but what if you measured boost pressure at the manifoild opossed to the turbo itself? wouldn't the same boost pressure from two diffrent turbos still mean the same airflow? since the volume of the manifoild is constant

@jcadlols 2 жыл бұрын

That would be correct if the temperature was the same. A less efficient turbo will have a hotter charge. Gas gets bigger (less dense) when it’s hotter. Also, more exhaust back pressure will increase pumping losses and further reduce power.
