Dyno Testing a $2,500 ELECTRIC TURBO! 48 Volts of BOOST!!

[@CleetusM]

Guys it’s KZbin having problems not my vid. Try skipping ahead to 7:00 if you get stopped, that seems to be working for people. If it continues, perhaps logout and back in. I know there was a recent app update... ugh 😑

[@MajorMalfunction]

What you need is a second air intake with a flap valve that closes under positive pressure. So you can drive around naturally aspirated without losing the horses, and when you hit the turbo the valve shuts and delivers the boost. Or you could do an electric solenoid valve that closes when you press the button. Just some ideas. :)

[@scottborkowski4487]

was thinking the same thing. needs a way to save the 10 hp for bottom end and a throttle switch to control the turbo so it kicks in under full throttle. Was also wondering what it would be like if a guy ran twins on there, would that negate the boost drop in higher rpm

[@permagrin8742]

Well the Roadkill crew used gas powered leaf blowers, multiple, to get boost and make extra power. So electric would require an inverter for 12-120v and a lot of input power. But can be done

[@Pyrochazm]

The guys over at MCM did it a few years back with a couple of ryobi leafblowers. they got like 2 hp out of it. The thing about leaf blowers is that they can move a large volume of air, but dont create a whole lot of pressure.

[@PeterXChhanX]

@@Pyrochazm the problem with mcm is that they used it on a carb engine and did no tuning whatsoever. I'm sure the best they did was make it run a little leaner. I know carbs still depend on air flow but still. No fine readings done on an old tired engine

[@richierich8678]

[@WITTYFAM]

I got an idea: QTP y-pipe cutout so you can open and close the intake when not in use because of its restriction when not on.

[@tonycolantonio4640]

I was thinking some sort of clutch on a solenoid to put the electric motor in "neutral" so it spins freely or go the complex route and have an active spees controller that senses engine load and rpm and switches from 12v operation to 24v to 36v then 48v based on load. Basically it would always be on and generate no loss.

[@WITTYFAM]

@@tonycolantonio4640 Or maybe instead of a "Blow off" valve for overboost its a "Suck off" valve that opens to bypass the Turbo when its not on👍 Hell yeah SuckOff Valve!!!

[@hereinmissoula11]

I ws thinking this or check valve that shut under boost but would suck through

[@TorqAmp]

It's in general not really a restriction on such a car because gasoline engines need a restriction at partially throttle (throttle valve). For large turbo builds we have a bypass valve. Check it out on our Kickstarter campaign page: www.kickstarter.com/projects/torqamp/torqamp-electric-supercharger?ref=4rw3am

She’s a ripper for sure. You could use one of these to jump start a turbo to eliminate turbo lag.

[@luchighwalker4108]

If im not mistaking, you see that in a lot of higher end cars these days. A small electric turbo for the low end, and a bigger traditional turbo for the high end.

Guys I’m smiling ear to ear on this vid. When I was a teenager I learned to drive stick on a Mazda MX-6 it was a 2.3L turbo and it Chirped into 3rd.. absolute animal this was 1999 baby

[@ryanhoffmann9341]

There is no reason this shouldn't scale up to a larger turbo to work on a larger engine. Audi and Mercedes are already using electric turbos (technically it becomes a supercharger when it is powered by anything but the exhaust gas of the engine but that is being pedantic.) Keep up the amazing content gentlemen!

[@Whoiseaston]

@@mcgherkinstudios turbochargers use exhaust gasses while superchargers do not that is the difference.

[@Whoiseaston]

@@mcgherkinstudios sounds like your going off on a politically correct tangent, listen i was stating the difference between the way a turbocharger and a supercharger work. Turbochargers use exhaust gasses and superchargers use crank pulleys and fresh air its really simple buddy there was no room for correction on my last statement so im confused as to why you felt like replying to me

[@c0c0asauce]

@@Whoiseaston I use the same definition as you because that's is how it applies in my environment. His definition is correct but in a way that maybe irrelevant to me or you. Kind of like some automotive tech is just airplane tech repurposed. The use changes and so does the definition. Excuse my presumptions.
