Man... it's very underrated the knowledge that Andre has, and the questions he asks the interviewers! It's such a pleasure to watch & learn something from his insight and perspective... and the humbleness of both Shane T. and Andre makes digesting complicated science easy for the layman without a degree to grasp the concept. Thank you HPA for another stellar interview... definitely one for the archives!!

IAT's 5 degrees above ambient is probably the most impressive thing in my mind. The engineering involved in those charge coolers is incredible. Think about how long the intercooler actually has to cool the air that is rushing past it, literally fractions of a second.
One of the few humans that says more than Andre during interviews :) These guys are a real treat to watch and learn from every time they speak. Another well done interview in the bag. Great work HPA
Formula 1 doesn't progress because it has a LOT of rules that basically put everyone at the same level of advantage, otherwise big companies would dump a bunch of cash into making cars with enormous advantages and smaller companies with less money would be in the shade.
@@TheFPSPower eh, small companies used to do fine. They used a lot of tricks to get around rules and what not with less money and they did fine. If it went back to that, we would see a lot more tech being developed though.

Diesel have been using compound turbo setup for ages, most stock semi truck diesel engines run upward of 65-80 psi and run 70.000lbs injectors , like he said nothing new really. But on a Gas engine its tricky to setup and get running properly. 3000 Hp on a small 4 cyl is damn impressive.
Its tricky to get the correct size turbos even on a diesel. Dudes have been doing it long enough that the maths are known much better in diesel applications.
RedmistAU well also diesels do not burn the same fuel and do not have have an ignition system. Diesels need compression to ignite the fuel , whereas gas engines to much compression is very bad for detonation unless your burning nitromethane.
I wanted to see the layout Nissan navara run twin turbos and, correct me if I’m wrong (probable) they run sequentially, sort of parallel, small turbo at low revs changes to large turbo at high rpm I think this set up is turbos that directly feed each other in series Would have been great to see how the exhaust was plumbed
As you said!!!! Diesels making around 80psi is a totally different ball game to a 2 litre 4 cylinder gas engine!!! ..... diesels make boost a lot more easily !!! Due to their design !!
I will never get sick of this podcast. The knowledge and inspiration gained is un matched. It’s brings a greater appreciation to the people that do these jobs and keep the aftermarket alive. Thank you for doing what you do.
I read about compound turbos back in 2006 but never really put aside a budget to do a full build to make use of the silly numbers you can make; seeing it finally starting to gain ground makes me happy.
13:08 .... My favourite part. This guy is still learning and trying things ... just on a massive scale. Great interviewee with all the informative answers, and great interviewer asking all the right questions. Top notch content.
This is one of the best interviews I've ever seen. So much in depth explanation and specifics like air temp etc really awesome to be able to listen to and understand exactly what these guys are doing with their motors at these extreme levels. Love how Shane T doesn't try to hide anything at all.
That just got me SO pumped. Shane T and Andre are so enthusiastic about learning and technology and they are so good for this industry. I'm proud to have a Mazworx built VE in my racecar:)
That's awesome! Glad you're enjoying the content and learning English. Just make sure you don't pick up our Kiwi accent aye haha. We caught up with Shane T again in November so you can expect that to come out in a few weeks as well =) - Taz.
I like hearing your interviews, I vote they compound charge a Yamaha r1 engine and race that. They will definitely get the rpms they want. Professionalism at its finest and follow up questions on point! Great work, I subscribed weeks ago.
I had seen videos explaining compounded turbocharging before this, and had a fair understanding about it, but no one had or is yet to break it down and explain such a complicated system so eloquently.
You guys just get better and better. Such an interesting channel you deserve more subs. Andre's insight and work to share all this info is awesome. Love you guys 👌
Loved the interviews you've done on this channel. The one you did on that time attack Integra was my favorite, however, each one continues to deliver on the quality. Really you deserve more subscribers such great content here.
I always wondered how they tuned the wastegates for compound turbos. Well now I know. That engine setup is going to be a heavy hitter for 5's. I hope they make it
The assumption is the more turbos the more complicated it should be. Kevin Jewer's setup is the same, takes the signal from the top of the port. He went from air-to air, then methanol which is what Jett is going to air to water which is what Shane explains the benefit over the added weight. Another 900 whp offsets the 80-100 lbs added, very easily. Actually more people are figuring that out, just make more power.
I think the easiest way to explain compound boost is compared to what baseline? Love the way Andre explains it. Shane has a great understanding and capacity to learn, process, understand, present and formulate good questions in a short time frame. I'm probably going to binge watch now....
Watching these videos makes me wish I bit the bullet and went to school for engineering...always a new challenge, always new things to learn in the tuning industry with very tangible and physically vibrant results.
Thanks for your support and comment mate! I couldn't wait any longer to release this one haha Still have heaps of great ones in the vault for the coming weeks too! - Taz.
Fantastic vid with great info on his compound setup. When it comes to compound turbocharging gasoline engines I always see people implement it with the goal of obtaining some low-end/midrange power with a strong top end. This setup is designed to run super high psi for extreme hp which I haven't come across before. Great stuff!
Wow great info coming from both parties here. Excellent! Good to know even the best hook things up incorrectly once in awhile! I recently started my car having forgotten to reinstall one of the spark plugs. Sounded hellacious
I remember Norwood did a total billet engine for an Acura integta running two Y2K turbos. Interesting article. However this compound setup is something else, ShaneT will definitely figure it all out.
Love getting to hear from someone who can explain the math behind the reasoning very clearly! Never understood how compounding worked mathematically - now it makes so much more sense! Also, 380 pounds of boost. JESUS.
imply amazing! Congratulations Ben....you certainly are talented when it comes to interviews and developing teh info in such an approachable manner! Thanks so much! 👌🏻
I love how he talks about how impossible running a 5 sounded years ago. And now they’re knocking on the door of 5’s. Yet they had to turn down the power they could possibly make. I wonder in how many years 380psi is not gonna be enough just how if you talked about running 75-80 psi 10-15 years ago on a 4cyl they would of though you were crazy. But now we’re their. When will we actually use 300psi? But in all seriousness 3000hp on a 4cyl is absolutely astonishing. That’s 750 HP PER CYLINDER. I struggle to make that with 8 cylinders 😂.
Shane is awesome eh! We've been lucky enough to chat to him a few times over the years to make sure you have a quick search on the channel and we have another interview with him lined up for release in the coming weeks too 🤘 - Taz.
What Shane just mention about making the same torque at a higher RPM is right on par with what I’ve done with the stock internals Hayabusa Dyno Tune it could handle 200 foot pounds of torque early on in the booth strange went to a larger turbo and made 200 foot pounds of torque near red light hence a stock internal Busa made 320 hp at red line 350 was possible but I ran out of injector i’ve been wanting to build compound turbos for a while now I’m glad to see somebody’s done it that’s making real power in numbers
Andre the man ! Love this channel ! so underrated in views & subs. HP academy should be smashing it but I guess the following will come - keep up the good work and doing what your doing 👊🏻 Big love from the Uk 🇬🇧
I think this is one of the best interviews Andre has done. Sure is satisfying to listen to such a complex setup explained so well 👌👌 Was curious as to Collins setup when he went compound and how it worked. Shane and Andre are like the living version of google without needing to search for anything else cos they nail everything you are wondering. Unreal guys! 👌💪
Shane is an animal and Andre is simply the best interviewer in the industry. Having at interviewer that understands the topic at hand at such a high level really brings out the best discussions. Bravo.
This bloke is amazing. The last time you had him on he was just as informative. Also I think he should let the engine hit 380psi. Just once, just to make sure his math is correct, make sure it's being filmed tho. So one thing I'm curious on, if you had a compound setup that used supercharger then turbo, isn't the power going to eventually be limited by how much air can be dragged thru the supercharger, or for that matter, pushed out the exhaust housing of the turbo? Surely there is a point at which the whole system either chokes the intake, or back pressures the exhaust?
That’s funny I had a customer hear me say something about my teacher and he made the comment ,”oh no your in training “ and I said the day I stop learning is the day I stop tuning . God Bless !
Personally I'd be more worried about someone who claims to know it all, the learning never stops and people at the peak of their respective industries are always really open about that. It's also why they're at the peak and others are not...😂 Happy learning! - Taz.
I have a feeling that Shane found compounding turbos "easy" because he'd crunched plenty of numbers before picking the parts to assemble the whole thing. Just as I know I'd have blown many engines trying the same thing. Fantastic interview explaining lots of complicated ideas in a way that even a simple guy like me can intuitively understand.
ALL competition engines are built by crunching the numbers first. That's the ONLY way to do it. Successful engine builders don't just guess at a bunch of parts, then throw the motor together and pray. That would be just stupid.
Really well explained. I wonder if the 1.4 TSI engine from VW had used a compressor and a turbo in order to keep each component in the most efficient range. Great video as always.
Everyone talks about compound turbo charging, but how are they plumbed? Where does the waste gate of the larger turbo charger go? Atmosphere? Which turbine is fed by the engine first?
We had no time to film anything else this year. They packed up and turned off the lights at PRI right after this interview, so we're lucky to even have this at all - Taz.
Speaking on the part of the 1:1 pressure ratio across the cylinder. Where would you be measuring the backpressure in the exhaust? Would you measure in the header runner on the cylinder you're looking at, would you measure at up-pipe right before the turbo or would you measure the pressure after the turbo?
The compressive side of a turbo is basically a centrifugal compressor like was used in the aircraft superchargers in the 1930's and 40's and they ran multi stage setups. They then were used in some aircraft driven by the exhaust gasses just like a modern turbo (p38 p47). in the mid 40's some jet engines used them as the compressor (RR derwent etc). has anyone tried using a multi stage axial compressor instead like a modern jet (j57 rb199 et all) or a compound axial/centrifugal like the RR clyde turboprop?
the performance diesel tuners have been working with compounds for years, they call the first stage the Atmospheric stage, and the 2nd stage the high pressure stage. of notable mention about the high boost diesel builds, they found that when running near or around 150 pounds of boost boost pressure they were actually pushing the pistons down during the intake stroke, they were actually recovering power from the exhaust due to the extremely high manifold pressures!
so how big does the intercooler have to be for cooling, how many intercoolers are used, and how much real estate is that going to take in the engine bay?

You don’t need a degree to understand this stuff lol
"The dimension between the valve cover and the oil pan would for sure get longer" is the best way I've ever heard "engine go boom" worded.
IAT's 5 degrees above ambient is probably the most impressive thing in my mind. The engineering involved in those charge coolers is incredible. Think about how long the intercooler actually has to cool the air that is rushing past it, literally fractions of a second.
Physics/thermodynamics ftw baby!
don't forget that they're using ice water to cool the air, not ambient temperature air
@@Technoflicks thanks
Dry ice and Isopropyl alcohol = -77°C or -106.6°F
Ice and water = 0°C
Ice + salt and water = -21°C
Soon people will be running charge coolers with liquid nitrogen. "What are your IATs? About minus 180 C... o.O"
We ARE going to make 3000hp. We WILL THEN figure out how to USE it.

Should lock these two guys in shop together and see what comes out. Im sure it would be impressive!
Everyone talks about compound turbo charging, but how are they plumbed? Where does the waste gate of the larger turbo charger go? Atmosphere? Which turbine is fed by the engine first?
i run 1lb back pressure just over 2 lbs of boost ratio... running a VGT and ebp to control the veins
Dang and I was proud of my 420bhp 400lbft det this is crazy!
Wow this video is amazing it absolutely blows my mine .... good job
I had to watch this 4 times to fully comprehend this but what I realize is that compound set ups are the best for high hp 4cyl.
Not just 4 cylinders....
dang i wanted to see the setup , should have done a audio overlay on some video of the system
We had no time to film anything else this year. They packed up and turned off the lights at PRI right after this interview, so we're lucky to even have this at all - Taz.
But just to add, we will get an update on this at some stage and I promise some more footage for you @mazda2284 ;) - Taz.
@@hpa101 thanks ! I'm learning about turbo builds for a project I'd like to do in a year or 2 .
This guy for sure knows what he is doing!
Speaking on the part of the 1:1 pressure ratio across the cylinder. Where would you be measuring the backpressure in the exhaust? Would you measure in the header runner on the cylinder you're looking at, would you measure at up-pipe right before the turbo or would you measure the pressure after the turbo?
Anywhere before the turbo
best content on the internet! Brilliant vid.
That was solid! Cheers for the [TECH TALK] Churr! From New Zealand!
Shane.T knows his stuff, and Andre askes some damn good questions!!!!!!!!!!!!
The compressive side of a turbo is basically a centrifugal compressor like was used in the aircraft superchargers in the 1930's and 40's and they ran multi stage setups. They then were used in some aircraft driven by the exhaust gasses just like a modern turbo (p38 p47). in the mid 40's some jet engines used them as the compressor (RR derwent etc). has anyone tried using a multi stage axial compressor instead like a modern jet (j57 rb199 et all) or a compound axial/centrifugal like the RR clyde turboprop?
the performance diesel tuners have been working with compounds for years, they call the first stage the Atmospheric stage, and the 2nd stage the high pressure stage. of notable mention about the high boost diesel builds, they found that when running near or around 150 pounds of boost boost pressure they were actually pushing the pistons down during the intake stroke, they were actually recovering power from the exhaust due to the extremely high manifold pressures!
It takes even less that 150psi of boost pressure to "help" the pistons go down during the intake stroke.
so how big does the intercooler have to be for cooling, how many intercoolers are used, and how much real estate is that going to take in the engine bay?
Priceless video !!! Shane T is the best!
Seeking bolt on lawnmower mods for flight. Thank you TH-cam this recommendation will do.
nice. 3000HP is crazy. I'm just going for 400hp on my compound turbo Subaru
I'd like to see that engine with the Koenigsegg bell-shaped clutch and electronic valves.
@@dieselgeezer18 No, it would disintegrate into little pieces.
Shane. Living legend. Perfect explanation.
