How do you make more horsepower per psi of boost on your turbo motor? One measure of the Efficiency of a turbo combination is the amount of power it makes per PSI of Boost. You can always add boost, but how do you make each pound of boost more powerful? The question answered in this video--What is the best way to increase the amount of power your turbo combination makes per pound of boost?

The big thing: 1. Make the NA motor more powerful BEFORE forced induction, so the "multiplier" of boost has a bigger impact. (Example: intake, cam, headers, P&P) The little things: 1. Size of the turbo compressor/turbine matters. Make sure it meets the airflow needs of the power you want to get to. 2. Reduce intake air temps (IATs) via intercooling, active chilling, intercooler spray, etc. The cooler/denser air makes more power and is safer. 3. Make sure your downpipe and exhaust are as large as you can possibly fit after the turbo. More is always better, and spool is better.

The fact is that the engine needs to inhale and exhale an amount of air per hp. A) Bigger valves B) More lift/longer duration C) Faster opening and closing of said valves, as in roller cam behavior over relaxed, lazy, stock valve speeds D) Removing all restrictions possible from the intake and exhaust plumbing, even if the gain is somewhat minimal, as in, long tube headers. Then, temperature management: E) Biggest aftercooler possible. Dropping temperature to ambient is never bad for power. F) Aggressive cooling of the heads to enable maximum timing G) Aggressively insulating exhaust tract to preserve the precious exhaust gas energy to the turbine H) insulating the turbine housing More on breathing: I) Huge intake and exhaust ports to make sure they are not the bottlenecks. J) air intake that is fed from a reliable high pressure zone. K) large exhaust pipe diameter after the turbo(s) and Borla-style or just straight-through mufflers to reduce pumping losses. I have more to add, but it needs to be patented, so I will just leave this as is.

@Richard Holdener - How do most people apply what you're suggesting to their own cars? When you apply your formulas, the engine is connected directly to the dyno. Most people don't remove the engine from their cars to get a dyno reading. They get their dyno readings at the tire. I used the calculation on my car to see what I would get. My 3.7 V6 Mustang produces about 250 horsepower and about 240 foot lbs of torque stock. I Procharged it and at 9 lbs of boost my car now produces 420 horsepower and 352 foot pounds of torque on a Mustang Dyno. Stock my car my car produces about 17 horsepower at sea level. Under boost it produces about 17.7. The formula seems to work as an approximation. I think what happens is that the drivetrain losses decrease as a proportion while the power used to spin the supercharger increases as RPM increases. I would think that the horsepower per pound of boost would increase at the tire with a turbo because it is more efficient than the supercharger.

We're seeing growing popularity in our platform with turbos as well and seeing some really fast LTX 4th gen cars. I'd love to see you share a bit of love with our older LTX, maybe even including ditching the notoriously problematic Opti distributor and showing us how to make the Holley system work for us. LS PCM swaps ate becoming more and more popular with us but I'd kinda like to see an aftermarket ECU working and throwing some boost love at the LTX! Thanks man!

Not only the airflow of your turbo manifold matters, but I think that the heat and pressure differential matters more so the closer and shorter path from exhaust port to turbo is going to make for a more efficient turbo setup. Edit: dang I was wrong.

The more power you make N/A, the more youll make under boost. Since boost is just a measure of resistance to flow, if you increase the flow potential then youll make the same power with less boost and more power with the same boost. Cylinder head, cam, intake manifold, exhaust system, cubic inches, compression ratio. Not necessarily in that order.

Most engines that are streetable make 1 to 1.2 hp per c I. So if you can do that on 9.1 mechanical compressi9n then boost your combo to 8 psi then pump gas works and you won't double hp but it's still alot. So 600 is obtainable, so on 20 psi boost to double your initial n . A figure run e85 and get 800 to 1000 hp from e85. Bloodviking

Well, in your theory, the 300hp engine running three atmospheres (29.4psi boost) would make 900hp. To account for compressor efficiency, exhaust restriction (cant always run an open 4 inch exhaust outside of the dyno) id assume an efficiency of around 87% (first atmosphere of boost is usually almost double, but the second and third usually get up in cylinder pressure and you get octane limited) so 300hp of engine with two 87% efficient atmospheres of boost at 261hp each would make it a 822hp combination.

Sort of like, why would I install a TVS 2650 instead of a TVS 2300 on my stock LT1? Efficiency and room to grow. What's lag? Keep it up Richard, I'm liking the longer video format. I'm looking forward to the Turbo back pressure video. A friend of mine has a full length 3" catback on his turbo Camaro and I've been telling him he need a 4" dump.

I remember the article you wrote about the Kenne Bell 302 that made 500hp. A few of the cam sizes got messed up in the dyno charts but I think the conclusion was the XE274HE was the one you used to get the 500hp. What was the compression of that engine? Could the combination be improved on today? I would also be interested in seeing what OEM ECUs have done to power through the years.

Yes-EX274HR cam and there is a lot more power to be had but the stock block will ultimately limit that-I wish there was an iintercooler

Richard Holdener awesome! I’m going after Lisa’s record and I want to do it with a real Saturn not a general motors 2.2 eco-tech. So for I think my biggest restriction is going to be RPM as I do not have the aftermarket support for different gear ratios. I know the connecting rods that hold up to 30 pounds of boost but realistically long RPM runs probably 18. I plan on running the 1.9 L twin cam from a 95 to 98 the bottom and from a 2002 because it comes with the girdle when did tray and some rods. And a manual trans out of the single cam car . Over the years I have talked to Turk about this and he’s answered all my questions except for one because he doesn’t have experience in it and I see you do. And what were if any difficulties you had at slowing that car down being that it is a front wheel drive car?

I really appreciate all of your videos and information . Have you ever written a book or on video or tuning and or builds like how to build a 6 . 0 ls that can run pump gas boosted and be able to spin to say 6800 and make 900 plus hp . This may not be possible , perhaps less hp . I dont mind paying for good information its a lot cheaper than broken parts

If you had the 600 hp by adding one atmosphere, and then you add another atmosphere, that should double the hp again 1200 hp. Am I wrong ???

Dale Ostrom incorrect. Every atmosphere adds the stock horsepower one more time. 300= 1 atmosphere 600= 2 atmosphere 900= 3 atmosphere
