your channel is so underrated, you dont only explain turbochargers in detail but display graphics to better understand them in detail i havent seen anywhere else on youtube, i really wish you the best man and thank you

By far one of the most informative turbo videos I've seen. I'm looking to upgrade my 2004 Honda Civic with a custom turbo setup, and I learned more in these 13 minutes than all of the hours and hours I've spent scouring the internet for information.

Never understood compressor maps from any other YT explanation. You are a gifted teacher. Went through the math with you (using my numbers) and can't thank you enough. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.

O.K. 25 years ago I bought a book and read through it and for me it took some time, this guy explains it so quickly and accurately, he did skip the exhaust housing size, but they are easy to swap, one of my cars I went from a 0.86 to a 1.02 A/R and gained a lot top end and lost very little at lower RPM. Current build is a N54. I'm a full time dyno tuner and a mechanic for 37 years and this was a great refresher

I just want to share my personal lesson learned from sizing a turbo using this exact method - which resulted in lazy/laggy setup for street driving. I learned that you don’t need peak compressor efficiency at max RPM. It’s actually okay to be tapering off to the choke point at max RPM in a street application, which is what most factory turbocharged cars do. It is better to optimize peak compressor efficiency for the RPM range where you want to make power. With that in mind I would do the calculation at various engine RPM levels and compare the plot - looking for max efficiency at, for example, 5k RPM. It’s a good sanity check to plot the max RPM too, but not the number I’d care the most about.

Such an underrated channel, here's to 10k by the end of the year!

Just discovered you, you get my sub for sure. This is such an awesome and high quality video and has definitely been saved as a reference. Thanks for teaching me something new today.

Very informative ,explained in detail with graphs ! Thank you for better understanding of turbos !

This content is gold. High quality information, no crap, all functional and delivered in a clear and concise manner. Big +1 to this.

An underrated informative channel if i may say so myself . . . I learned something new about turbochargers . . . Keep it up, and I'll keep watching for sure . . .

Awesome video! Very new to this world, so its great to have something like this to learn. Ive thought about putting a turbo on a 5.3L LS btw

I just found you recently and I know that I’m late to the party, but your videos are amazing. Short and straight to the point. I’m interested in trying to turbo charge my 2011 Lancer ES as my first project car.

You're an absolute LEGEND for posting this type of information and making it so easy to understand. My brothers and I recently picked up a Z32 twin turbo and we plan on converting to single turbo for power numbers around 550-600whp. Now I can figure out exactly what turbo would be best for our goals with this car. Thanks bro :') Keep up the good content!

Thanks this was really helpful for understanding turbos and how to choose one, im gonna try to turbo a nissan 1996 pick up with a KA24E the Brother of the KA24DE

Dude, anything that educates a true power enthusiast truly enjoyed your condensed video. The only thing I regret is that it ended! I'm subscribing, keep up the great work!

Finally! I have always wanted to know this 😭 thank you for the video.

I’m trying to turbocharge my 02 rsx type s and your video has made it more clear for me to choose a turbo, I also want to learn how to tune as a dream job! Thanks so much for these well informed videos 🙏💯

Love the video, the equations make this much easier. I’m turbocharging a 2003 Lexus IS300 with the 2JZGE VVT-i engine. Sitting in front of a W55 5 speed for now, eventually swapping for a 6 speed CD009. It’ll be a street/drift build!

I love the way you put stuff into detail , I was studying how to choose the right turbo to make my rb25 hit 350hp to 400hp

I just want to say your channel has seriously helped my knowledge of vehicles!!! Honestly dude you are my favorite content creator and I can confidently say you might be the best out there!

Appreciate your content - exceptionally made and thank you very much for your efforts!!! Would love to see more! FYI: CALCULATION ADJUSTMENT: Die Volumetric Efficiency rate of your given values 95% should be added at respective 0.95 (not 95) --> or you have to calculate the result again with *100 which makes it more bulky.

I'm trying to get around 650 wheel horsepower from my 2jz gte vvti, so I am looking for the correct turbocharger for my setup. It is going into my Volvo 940 which of all the cars is the one I love (driving) the most. 😁 Thanks for this video I will soon sit down and calculate if the turbo that I was gonna buy is the right thing for me. Cheers from The Netherlands!

Amazing video, this helped me learn tons about which turbo I will need to use on my G37 coupe street build, ill keep coming back to this video just to make sure I get the right one in the near future!

And thank you so much for the effort to explain all of this I haven’t really found any KZfaqr that takes the time to break it down like that for those of us that know cars but don’t know in depth numbers like that

WOW. Thank you so much MZ!! I just learned something ill never forget, took mad notes as always, damn dude, cant thank you enough I'm doing R&D on my LF 2.0 Sonata to build it :)

Great informative vid! I think I've watched tons it turbo related vids now and definitely learned a whole lot in this vid about actually selecting the right type. Despite watching so many vids on this topic, I still have a hard time understanding how to set up the different gauges with the wiring, where to tap into what etc. Hoping you go into as much detail as you did with this vid when you get to that part of the build!

Just wanted to say thank you for the clear explanation. Helped immensely.

This was actually very helpful in finding out how big of a turbo I would need in some cars and some physics on how to get certain horsepower. You definitely need more recognition

8:47 Volume Efficiency is 0.95** when doing the formula :)

My apologies for the ignorance, but I’m not able to get my final equation to work out… I DID PEMDAS 😂😂😂, I’m getting like .13…. Any help is appreciated

yes keep it up we are out here looking for detailed info on stuff and you are putting out great videos

Just showed up in my feed. Saw the video, instant sub. Great and simple video of a topic often left behind. Greetings all the way from Argentina!

MZ, I just stumbled upon your channel by chance. Oh my… you are one of the best thing out there on KZfaq for the car enthusiast community. 🙌🏾

Been on KZfaq on and off all day. So far best explanation of turbo sizing

This is an awesome video. I understand turbos so much better. Having the formulas to find the correct turbo is awesome.

This, and the video before this one, was an awesome video! I’ve been wanting to turbo my 05 Mustang GT, and this helped me a lot with where I need to start!

That’s was everything I need to know. Good video! Turboing my m54 3.0 z4

Thank you for this video! Not sure where I’d find these values as in the constants and formulas that you mentioned! Amazing I am aiming for 300 horsepower so thank you!

Great content man definitely helped me out finding the right turbo for my built 1.9L miata

I really do appreciate this video. While I may never build a turbo engine, I had often wondered what went into picking specifications.

Just ran across this video. Thank you. I am now enlightened (and picking a turbo for my car)

I love this video! I am working on finding a larger turbo for my 2018 WRX with the 2.0 FA20F engine, but one that has the best balance possible between fast spool and power up to at least 8k. After watching your video, I FINALLY have a grasp on how to make some sense of compressor maps and use them as a guide to select my turbo!

Amazing video dude I'll be checking out alot more of your videos

I have been searching for years for this video. Thank you!

best one i've seen yet. Great

Finally a great video on how to pick your turbo!

came across this while looking to turbo my m50 e34, this video is a huge help in deciding what turbo kit i should choose and what turbo i should get as well.

Thank you brother! Looking for a bigger GTX for my sti and this helped a lot.

New to your channel, love it, love your delivery. I may have to watch it a few more times however, with extensive use use of the pause button. ✊🏼

Haven't seen a better video about slapping turbo in a car. Wonderful information quality. I'm working on Citroen Berlingo B9, making it as nice and fast as a work van can get so turbo is on the way.🛠️

The best and most clear video on how to choose the turbo! In my case, for a turbo D16z6 that will be in my Honda logo! Many thanks bro!

This has got to be one of the best videos I’ve ever watched. It’s detailed and entertaining at the same time. I’m trying to turbocharge a 2012 Toyota Venza, yes I know, mid-life crisis.

Great vid, gonna plug in the numbers later for my 3rd gen coyote engine that I'll be doin a twin turbo set up on for my 62 fairlane

Best explanation of how to size a turbo I've heard or read ever. I've seen several other KZfaqrs try to explain it and not get it this well executed. Maximum Boost's publisher should ask you to write the next book for them.

Crazy useful. Thank you. Setting up a 331ci notch Fox. Considering a turbo build.

Dude you are hilarious! And SO GOOD at teaching these concepts. Corky Bell's book Maximum Boost puts me to sleep. I learn more in 5 minutes from your vids and laugh while I do it. Well done!

Im tyring to turbo my 09 civic si. Got everything I need from this video

I just wanted to leave here an appreciation message for all the work you do. You make the automotive space understandable for everyone. I deeply appreciate the way you explain things, using drawings and graphics to make sure the viewer knows what you are talking about, also you are able to make those math related videos entertaining. I wish you well and keep doing your best:)

Really enjoyed your video. Trying to get something out a 91 toyota celica st 1.6.

bro you're amazing! Learned a lot!

I'm looking to size twins for an Olds 455 in a 69 cutlass. this has been the most helpfull video i've come across yet

Turboing an 09 harley. This is exactly what I needed for the math side of things! Thanks

I love the way you explain things, great job! I'm gonna turbo charge my MB E230 it has a lot of potential. Aiming for first step at 300 HP, then will go up from there.

After watching this video I imediatly subbed and liked because that is the exact info ive been looking for to have the cofidence to start looking for turbos for real. I am starting a project on my 2006 infinity m35. fun car same engine as 350z g35 and a couple other well known cars and im planning on doing a turbo, cold air, exhaust and wheels. Keep looks mostly stock and just have as a fun daily
