    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!

    Hi Andre. I have a Dart 427 stage 2 cam with twin Garrett GTX3584RS with billet wheels and 3 inch downpipes 50 mm Turbosmart wastegates on C02. These are the biggest turbos and down pipes i can use on my car because of space restrictions. Do you think they are too small? I know these things will probably be at full boost by 3000 rpm.

  • @PANTYEATR1
    @PANTYEATR1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    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? Thanks

    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.

      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.

      ​@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.

  • @HeidiFegles
    @HeidiFegles ปีที่แล้ว

    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.

  • @BoostWang
    @BoostWang 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    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?

  • @turbo_brian
    @turbo_brian 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    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.

    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!

    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...

    • @cleveland2286
      @cleveland2286 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That's unfortunately just how turbochargers work. Some turbos can handle a wider range of airflow like the s366 compared to similarly sized turbos (GT45, G35-1050 less so), but that's up to you to decide. Personally I think a larger compressor and proportionally smaller turbine and A/R might be what you're looking for. Something like a T3/T4 or maybe just a straight T3 with a 0.6X A/R housing. High revving and small displacement engines don't get the luxury of having a wide range of boost.

    • @bingoberra18
      @bingoberra18 หลายเดือนก่อน

      ​@@cleveland2286 The problem is not width in my opinion. I get that you cannot make a turbo that is both efficient at high and low pressures. I think the problem is that there is not enough demand for my particular requirement so there are no turbos focusing on high flow-low pressure efficiency. A bigger compressor on a small turbine is not what I am after. I want the compressor itself to be efficient at lower boost while flowing enough for the engine requirements. No OEM turbo engine is flowing as well as a Honda K-series, so there has never really been a point for manufacturers to cater to this request. Unless for very low hp OEM engines. For example Saab 2.0t was a low pressure turbo engine doing 150hp stock. While an SR20 or 4G63 pretty much does 150hp NA. Now the K-series are basically flowing as much air NA as a SR20 or 4G63 are doing with a turbo...

    • @cleveland2286
      @cleveland2286 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@bingoberra18 You can absolutely have a turbocharger that is efficient at both high and low pressure ratios. The issue is how much air mass you want at those pressure ratios.
      The EFR 7163 is very efficient both at a pressure ratio of 1.2 and 3.8
      The difference is at 3.8 its flowing 7x the air in mass.
      The pressure ratio refers to the pressure at the outlet of the compressor compared to the inlet. Its impossible to have a turbocharger that flows more air mass (as the engine climbs rpm) at the same pressure without changing the volume. No turbo can do that. Ideal gas law.
      Smaller turbos do it better because of square cube law. Unless you want to slap two K04-2075s on your motor or some kind of VGT, its unlikely you will ever find the turbo you are looking for.

      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.

      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...

      @@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.

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.

      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.

      In my experience, not enough of a difference to be worth the extra money for bb. No major effect on boost threshold.
      Never really had a chance to compare lag, but if there is an improvement, it's only small.
      IMO, if you're on a budget and you have the choice between identical BB and JB turbos, choose the JB and use that 500 quid you saved elsewhere on your project 😄

    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?

    • @RwP223

      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.

      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.

  • @GroovesAndLands
    @GroovesAndLands 2 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    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.

    • @FastPaull
      @FastPaull 2 ปีที่แล้ว +23

      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.

    • @DOO00K
      @DOO00K 2 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      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.

      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.

      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.
