When you want to produce 2000HP from a turbocharged 4 cylinder engine it is logical that you’re going to lean heavily on your turbo setup. Shane Tecklenburg, the Mazworkz Racing Engines and Tekno Toyz team reached this goal with their MoTeC controlled 88mm turbo setup some time ago, but when reaching for 3000HP it was evident a single was not going to cut it.
Shane and Andre explain some of the cooling and packaging issues around large single turbo setups before explaining how the current 380 PSI capable compound system consisting of 2 large turbochargers, which technically due to pressure ratios operate at around 30 PSI a piece, are feeding one smaller turbo which combined enables them to push past those 2000HP limits and reach higher power outputs.
Also discussed are the advantages and disadvantages of intercooling while running methanol fuel and the decision process around it as well as how you control boost in a compound turbo setup and the parameters that must be considered to ensure the boost is kept at the target levels.
Lastly, Shane shares his goal of hitting 5 seconds with this 4 cylinder SR20 based engine in the race with Jett Racing to be the first to do so.

Man... it's very underrated the knowledge that Andre has, and the questions he asks the interviewers! It's such a pleasure to watch & learn something from his insight and perspective... and the humbleness of both Shane T. and Andre makes digesting complicated science easy for the layman without a degree to grasp the concept. Thank you HPA for another stellar interview... definitely one for the archives!!

IAT's 5 degrees above ambient is probably the most impressive thing in my mind. The engineering involved in those charge coolers is incredible. Think about how long the intercooler actually has to cool the air that is rushing past it, literally fractions of a second.

Formula 1 doesn't progress because it has a LOT of rules that basically put everyone at the same level of advantage, otherwise big companies would dump a bunch of cash into making cars with enormous advantages and smaller companies with less money would be in the shade.

Fantastic vid with great info on his compound setup. When it comes to compound turbocharging gasoline engines I always see people implement it with the goal of obtaining some low-end/midrange power with a strong top end.

Wow great info coming from both parties here. Excellent! Good to know even the best hook things up incorrectly once in awhile! I recently started my car having forgotten to reinstall one of the spark plugs. Sounded hellacious

[@geluix69]

Diesel have been using compound turbo setup for ages, most stock semi truck diesel engines run upward of 65-80 psi and run 70.000lbs injectors , like he said nothing new really. But on a Gas engine its tricky to setup and get running properly. 3000 Hp on a small 4 cyl is damn impressive.

[@RedmistAU]

Its tricky to get the correct size turbos even on a diesel. Dudes have been doing it long enough that the maths are known much better in diesel applications.

[@geluix69]

RedmistAU well also diesels do not burn the same fuel and do not have have an ignition system. Diesels need compression to ignite the fuel , whereas gas engines to much compression is very bad for detonation unless your burning nitromethane.

[@mrbumcraic5046]

I wanted to see the layout Nissan navara run twin turbos and, correct me if I’m wrong (probable) they run sequentially, sort of parallel, small turbo at low revs changes to large turbo at high rpm I think this set up is turbos that directly feed each other in series Would have been great to see how the exhaust was plumbed

[@robmotown1]

As you said!!!! Diesels making around 80psi is a totally different ball game to a 2 litre 4 cylinder gas engine!!! ..... diesels make boost a lot more easily !!! Due to their design !!

[@bill2178]

diesels are ridiculously simple compared to spark plugs where there is a hundred different areas trying to scatter the engine

I wonder in how many years 380psi is not gonna be enough just how if you talked about running 75-80 psi 10-15 years ago on a 4cyl they would of though you were crazy. But now we’re their. When will we actually use 300psi? But in all seriousness 3000hp on a 4cyl is absolutely astonishing. That’s 750 HP PER CYLINDER. I struggle to make that with 8 cylinders 😂.
