Thank You penetrus

[crazz234]

manusreekumar1 well go to ebay and look up t25 turbo charger for your engine size i bet you will have to make a custom kit you need a turbo for start the garret T25 will start you off good then you need a turbo exhaust manifold and charge pipe an intercooler waist gate blow off valve and some other random stuff good luck

[crazz234]

i know it sounds like a fucking vaccum lol what you expect it has an electric motor!

[myfeeling4you]

great , now measure the air volume coming from it, not pressure as without volume you have nothing

[crazz234]

@myfeeling4you verry true i wil have to find a way to do so my field test was enough prof for me but i need real test results for your prof

[crazz234]

well depends on which charger your talking centrifical super chargers and geared up to 10:1 or 52:1 ratio or what ever the compressor wheel spins alot faster than 5000RPM it is not a roots charger. Sorry for the miss spelling

dude at like 1:00 all I can hear is you breathing like a creeper.

[bo47hooker]

Whie the challenges are obvious, I wouls say keep it up man. I would also say you keep the progress to yourself before some asshole steals your work, especially if you come up with something truely unique that becomes key to the concept. Good luck to you either way.

The real reason why those kit cost so much because companies like Garrett are public owned companies. Means people own stock in the company Honeywell. Their main concern as a company is not to give you a bargin on a turbo/super kit. It to bring a return in profits back to their investors. In order to increase profits they will sell you stuff you don't need and teach FI princlpes their way. Ask any oldskool tuner is all this tech needed for only 5 to 6 psi. Thats business 101.

[omega3677]

A turbo/supercharger pumps in pressurized air. It is the increase in pressure is first were you get more power. Then you add fuel for anything over 6 psi that helps lower intake charge temps and increase HP. I was a tank machanic in the Army for 10 years. All track vehicles except the M1 has some type of FI. I know exactly how FI works. Now I am a business student and see how they will sell you alot of stuff you don't need just for 6 psi on a n/a car.

@omega3677 The reason those kits cost what they do is because they have all those parts. A Turbo by it's self is only a few hundred to a grand depending on the type it is. But, if you add air, you have to add fuel. That's engine performance 101. Even the most basic supercharger bolt on that gets only 20-40hp gains needs new injectors and few other odds and ends. Otherwise the added air does nothing for you. You really do not get what a supercharger/turbo is doing, do you?

[omega3677]

From a business point it makes more since to sell you a $2,000 to $6,000 super/turbo kit vs a 500.00 electric supercharger for your car that you could only run 5 to 6 psi of boost (30 to 40% HP gain) before you have to spin more money and build up your engine. Add an intercooler, fuel injectors, and other options to pump up the price. However there is no promise that performance will me much of an improvement because the kit was not made specific for a particular n/a car.

[omega3677]

A company could produce a real electric supercharger cheaper then what it takes to make/sell a forced induction kit. If a company like VORTECH made a 500.00 dollar electric supercharger capable of 6 psi then they could not sell you a super/turbo kit that makes 6 psi with all the other parts that will add to the kit just to make more money. Now 6 psi kits come with intercoolers. Do you really need an intercooler at 6 psi on a belt drive supercharger? No you don't.

[cbremer83]

@omega3677 If there was money to be made, those companies in that business would already be making the systems. As for BMW, they patented a system with an electrically assisted turbo. An electric motor will spool the turbo up before the exhaust pressure is high enough to take over. The idea is to combat turbo lag. It's a cheaper and more streetable alternative to the anti-lag systems like rally cars use. No word on a street date or if it will ever make it that far.

[omega3677]

@cbremer83 There are some examples of real electric superchargers on factory cars. Linclon head a V8 car a few years ago that used the Turbopac from Powerdyne. Currently BMW annoucned a couple of months ago that they have car with an electric supercharger on the way. Its not the auto industry that does not want a ESC, its the forced induction industry that is surpressing the technology. Its all about money they want you to shell out for an overpriced supercharger or turbocharger kit.

[cbremer83]

If "electric superchargers" had any promise of of working, the auto industry would have started using them by now. But they don't.

@marcandsebe probably because it was mounted to a stock motor to begin with...Or you chucked it on something bigger than 4cyl's. Ever think of modifying it before installing?
