Nice job on the engine! Sounds absolutely amazing, plus glad to hear you're doing well. Would love to see them around a track, maybe in a pre built car?
@Curiousgamer20 that first 4cyl turbo truck engine is already a very close analogue. From what I know, they were feeding ~85PSI of Boost at it to achieve that performance, and drivers said that it was constantly toeing throttle in turns to maintain boost, then full throttle exiting turns to maximize boost output. A real "all or nothing" setup.
@@Curiousgamer20 The story of those F1 motors is almost comedic... BMW bought road cars with at least 250k km on the odometer, and left those engine blocks out in the snow, occasionally urinating on them. This was a combination of near-Cryo treatment, causing the metal to shrink and stabilize the metal grain structure, and relieving stress. Since the engines had already experienced heavy use loading, they were machined flat, and any warpage they assumed was left as is, because if it was a weakness, it would have already failed. The various chemicals present in the urine formed a Nitride layer which toughened the metal, and BMW later learned how to industrially do it, but the urine was an accident... They didn't want the blocks to crack from freeze expansion of water in places, so they peed on the blocks to remove ice 😆 it wasn't maltreatment, and it wasn't a purposeful action, but the beneficial Nitride layer was found to be a simple surface hardening technique, much akin to Anodizing or Case hardening other metals
@Karl_Kampfwagen I love how comedic and awesome that was it is straight up wild because in today's world that would not be allowed thank you for the indepth expination 👽

Thank you for the kind words, I appreciate it! Yeah, I'm thinking about testing the engines in a car, ill keep everyone informed on YT and on X.
I always loved the BMW M10/12 F1 engine. Made from a standard consumer engine with a massive turbo, capable of 1500hp
That engine sounds awesome and rev's very high I'll have to look into that and build a awesome version thank you for the suggestion

@Karl_Kampfwagen 😂yeah no that sounds like the engine I love to mess with

make a supercharged 2jz, always wanted to see one
Yeah that does sound very intriguing
