Turbo BS Thread

Is there such a thing as compressed air on a switch that will instantly spool up the turbo?

 

Sounds like a tuning nightmare, going from zero to full load nearly immediately lol

 

Would take a little work, I think would satisfy my desire for twin charging and maybe a tad better.

 

No but you can get a computer that does rolling anti-lag

 

Bang bang bang bang!

 

I usually just downshift to get my rpms over 4K. Dropping the clutch was fun until I lost 2nd.

 

Yes, it usually results in danger to manifold though... aka nitrous.

 

yeah, my Haltech can do it but I don't care for the "bang bang" haha

 

I could get one of those little compressors and put under the hood like everyone else on TW, people thinking I'm airing down on the trail haha

 

Put a flapper on a twin scroll housing. About as quick as it gets.

Isn't that nos lol

 

Yeah. RHD manifold doesn't like A/C lines on the LHD Tacoma.



Even without the A/C lines issue, the header was too close to the fender well. The design with the w/g on the BW EFR 6758, would have contacted.

Not ideal, if I want to make more of these for other people.

The new design, raises it, obviously. Allow for a larger sized turbo. Up to the Borg Warner EFR 9180, I bet. Should someone be so bold.

Now if I could do a hanging style, that would really make for an easy down-pipe routing. As is. Should be very easy intake routing.

 

The is the post engine exhaust rocket combustion chamber. Named something like that. It is on the website www.motoIQ.com. Used used to keep Turbo's spooling without lag. Used in Rally cross and rally racing. Maybe try searching the external combustion chamber perhaps.

 

This seems like it'll be in effect all the time.

 

I think this is it

That's the one! Really good read. I have wanted to make one, for years. Just need some inconel now, since I can weld.

 

That’s good stuff right there. Basically an afterburner. Anybody have any jet engine background that can decipher what they’ve done?

It’s possible to tune a ‘boost ready’ function that keeps the turbo spooled to reduce lag. It makes the car sound kind funky because the blow off is open more often, but lots of BMW, Kia, etc tunes utilize it.

 

that’s the sweet spot for fitting any turbo nicely up to the big boys. My current manifold is very close to your latest design.

 

My idea is on demand yet not full time
