what is F-ing point of racing if they ban any new technology development that gives the drivers a competitive edge? it feels like these racing leagues are just propaganda machines for a hand full of already dominant Brands.
Yeah. But racing lives in finding the gaps in between regulations to get competitive advantage. This gap was then closed, but, was a very good one. Just look at formula one for an example
Racing isn't about going fast. It's about the people in the stands that are footing the bill for all of this. If one car has too much of a edge, all you have to do is look at Gordon in 94-95 he went from being the Wonderboy to being hated by the end of 95. People want a show not the same guy walking the field every race. And if the people aren't interested they don't show up or don't watch. Nobody watches, nobody sponsors.
New tech development? That happens regardless of bans, the bans happen to keep competition affordable and close for the teams that aren’t walking around with billion dollar budgets
iirc one of the benefits of this rocket type ALS is it does not reach as high exhaust temperature as just adding fuel and air into the turbo, it uses the air swirling around to keep it at a certain temp so it does not wear things out so rapidly as conventional anti lag.
I looked at regular ALS as fuel burning into the turbo, where rocket burns it before, therfore putting "exhaust" into the turbo. Saving temps & turbo wear as you say.
Rally cars back then just sounded more glorious especially with proper anti lag this type of system was a league of its own cant believe it was invented in the 50s !! I thought it was a prodrive thing.. and that glorious compressor surge absolutely love the builds and channel ❤
Audi Umluft system was also interesting utilizing multiple air paths and wastegates to accomplish less turbine spin-down between shifts back in Gruppe B days
Umluft is exactly what fresh air antilag is today. Exaclty. Was next used on Celica GT4s and Evos, then almost all WRCs after 1997. Just Turbosmart and others like to pretend it’s something new to sell stuff. And Ferrari and Alfa both used it before Audi did, but in F1.
@@dickard8275 it’s not really ‘fresh’ air, it just means air bypassing the engine totally, from boost pipe to exhaust manifold. And only works when boost pressure is higher in the boost pipes than exhaust manifold, which to be fair is most times off throttle with ALS on. Almost always needs some normal throttle bypass ALS to work correctly and to start it off, much like rocket does.
Fantastic. Always Loved Rocket ALS. Spent so many hours searching, reading, watching videos, patents, etc about it. This video puts it all in one. Time to build one for one of your cars. 😁😁👍👍
I relate to this. I also have a mind that's constantly trying to invent new and improved things, and it's frustrating continuously finding decade old patents for what you thought _must_ finally be an original idea. I often see it proposed that human technology peaked in the 1960's, and everything since has been derivative. I don't want to believe that, but the older I get and the more I learn, the more open to that proposal I become.

@StavTech I'd have to find it but there's a turbo 1.8 miata(mx5) here on TH-cam that runs a compressed air spool setup with a jatco auto transmission and it absolutely works great with a standard onboard air ride style air compressor at standard air compressor pressures(like 125-150psi). Unknown on what tank size or -an feed sizes and nozzle
No worries, this is just a basic video made from clips I did years ago, just realised I never uploaded it to TH-cam 😂 I’ll do a better and more detailed video showing my antilag etc on my car soon as I get a chance to
my old subaru wrx had this and it was really weird switched on to get used to. People actually laughed saying thats not antilag because its not popping flames or sounding like its on a limiter. it ate 5 speeds and td06's though as it was too much fun off the line.
@user13377d it was like 10 years ago so don't really remember. It was one of my only ever bought not built cars that I just paid people who knew more about them than me to sort it. I tend to stick to my Vauxhall's now.
to my knowledge, this or something similar was used in Group B (specifically Audi) where they injected fuel into the exhaust gasses when releasing the accelerator to keep the turbo spinning.
Whoa. I've heard of Subaru's rocket anti-lag, but I always thought it was just an special chamber with specifically designed inlet ports to create swirl. I didn't realize there was a standalone turbine!!
so i assume for this you need an electric oil pump for the turbo since it will be rotating faster then the oil can feed because crankshaft is at low rpm, and how would it work with a higher hp car?
even at low rpm, the engine is supplying 40psi of pressure to the turbo. They have restrictors to prevent too much oil, actually. No need for additional oiling.
Just saying.. my diesel vw variable geometry turbo can reach its max shaft speed in less than 2 seconds and result in a absolute intake pressure around 40 psi (26 psi relative to atmosphere. It is impressive to see it done here without any variable geometry. This is a pretty interesting concept and it is good to see someone other than car manufacturers innovating
Any one read about Soviet turbo charged WW2 aircraft and their anti lag systems? They essentially block the intake to increase turbo rpm! It works the same way as using a hoover! When you block the suction and the rpm greatly increases.
I’m very curious on how the turbo wear is with something like this as it won’t crest as much heat as regular anti lag especially if you can turn it on and off. Would love to try it on a drift car
The only useful bit of kit ive seen able to put any power down usefully was the car that was built then immediately outlawed for the pikes peak hill climb was the one that applied a vacuum down onto the asphalt as it aero package.. the thing was electric i think and completely dominated all times and impossible turn rate with the vacuum holding the tires to the road.. that shit was beyond crazy seeing how fast it was from takeoff to end.. like a slot car just go and friggn try to keep your eyes on it before it was gone..
Just as another commentator, I saw this video years ago and couldn't wrap my head around it. Now I own an 1.8T and understand turbos way better. So a question just came up about the turbo spinning at it's full speed at idle. Since the engine is idling, is there enough oil pressure to lubricate the turbo enough for it to spin this fast without damaging it? Or ist that the point you were trying ot make with the picture of the blown turbo? Greetings from Germany!
when the vehicle is at idle, where is all the excess boost going.. id imagine thru the crank case ? and maybe bov stuck open as well. i came from ig you post some interesting stuff.
I have a spark plug design it could use to fire water, esp saltwater which is more flammable as a mist/steam. It's too large a plug to fit into a normal head at 2.5" wide and 2.5" deep off the thread.
The crunchy resolution, choppy frame-rate, impact font on everything, the drum and bass. I feel like I'm watching a video from 2008 and it's all of my yes!! So how does this fare when pitted against the LSPI boogeyman? It's taught knowledge that having high boost at low RPM opens up the possibility of predetonation, but I'm not seeing that in play here.
The issue I think is more related to EGT, exhaust gas temperature. They go sky high very very quickly, within a few seconds, risking fires. It's a good launch control but after launch should be switched off otherwise it will melt the turbine.

Let me know when you find one.
What exactly is being switched when the system is on or off? Extra fuel that makes it to the combustor? A valve of some sort?
When the turbo spools at idle, doesn't it also induce a lot of stress into the combustion chamber?
Great tech and great vid
when the vehicle is at idle, where is all the excess boost going.. id imagine thru the crank case ? and maybe bov stuck open as well. i came from ig you post some interesting stuff.
I was thinking, what about the idle oil pressure of the engine and the work load on the turbo bearings. there's enough pressure to keep it protected?

Ok wait... Are we all just going to overlook the fkn INSANE deep-dished forged center-locks on my man's car @6:11!!?!?!?! 😱😱😱
I see someone found the patent or paper on the old combustion unit for turbochargers.
48v electric turbos are an alternative to this tech. Spools instantly, but only when you need it. No unnecessary wear on the turbo.
But in reality… They don’t exist in a form to make the amount of power and performance for the money yet.
Honestly, it sounds a lot like McMurtry Spierling at standstill.
Could you make a special 144p version of this?
And if so, why not do that the first time? Instead of stopping at 360p, and then upscaling?
What happends if you redirect compressed air from the turbo into the exhaust?
infinite boost
my first thought is good luck rodney 😅😅
What does the extra heat do for the lifespan of the turbo?
