boost school's architecture in explanation is just a copy of High performance academy videos except for a few differences. #1; Andre Simon of High performance academy is far more knowledgeable and experienced especially concerning the performance aspect of vehicles having built thousands and his personal evo at one time being the fastest evo in the world before retiring it from drag racing. #2 Boost school is free, hpa is not although they do offer some free tutorials.. #3 Hpa doesn't push a product for profit but rather has tutorials on varied brands like Haltech, Link, Vipec, fueltech, Motec aswell as AEM etc being far more expansive, indepth and not limited. Don't get me wrong, I like what he's doing by providing basic guides to the consumer providing a theory that's free but if you want an in-depth tutorial on engine building specifics, wiring, tuning etc from a proven technician, hpa is where it's at.

[@Kj16V]

Since this is a "university level" series, I have to pull you up on your use of "turbo lag". What you're describing throughout this video isn't lag, it's actually "boost threshold" ; the engine rpm where the turbo starts making boost. "Lag", on the other hand, is the delay between mashing the throttle and getting boost *when rpm is already over the boost threshold.* Lag is predominantly affected by the design of the turbocharger and the length of your intercooler and pre-turbo exhaust pipework. Boost threshold is affected by turbo design as well, but also engine design (compression ratio, cylinder head flow, cam profile, etc.). Besides that though, I'm loving this video and look forward to the rest of the series 😊

In the early '70's, a good friend bought a 62 Monza convertible. In 1962, Chevrolet didn't have a special VIN for the Spyder, they all shared the same VIN sequencing. So, his red Coevair became the Spyder version, with a wee bit of work, and a Spyder, my brother destroyed. He ran that car, for quite a few decades. It shared a garage, with a 29 Model A Victoria, a 64 Impala, a 62 Impala, and a 57 Fliptop Ford. I changed out the engine, in the Model A, and changed main and rod bearings in the Skyliner. steve

[@nferraro222]

Loved this. Sounds like a pretty ambitious series. A little bit of fun history - Buick originally started experimenting with twin turbos in the mid-sixties. Single turbos of the time were too small to fit a big-block engine, so they stuck twin turbos on a 425 cube dual-quad nailhead V8. The engine cranked out around 750 pounds of torque and the project was immediately shut down by the legal department. Considering the brakes, tires and handling of the time, that was probably a good idea.

[@MrBlirre]

Correction, the SAAB 99 was released fore sale in 1978, 100 pre production cars were made in 1977 as test cars. It was also the first turbo car with a wastegate to control boost, is there any turbocar made to day without one. Saab or should i say Per Gillbrand, also invented the Automatic Performance Control (APC) system that all Saab 900 turbos were fitted with from 1982 onwards. In 1978 in the swedish rally, the first ever tubo rallycar won a world rally competiton, Saabs factory rallyteam 99 Turbo Driven by Stig Blomqvist. When saab launched the 9-5 in 1997, and the 9-3 the year after, you no longer could by a n/a Saab, they were all turbos.

This is an excellent video history, the best I have seen. The first turbo I ever owned came from a jetfire, but I did not own the car. I hoped to use it to hotrod something. That never happened, I would have gotten much more boost from the $100 I spent on it, by purchasing MSFT. In '79 I added water injection (sprayed right down the carburetor throat) more boost and a distributor recurve to a Mustang Pace Car 2.3 turbo. What a wakeup call in performance. Next a 79 900T, water into the Turbo inlet, 18# no intercooler! Still a turbo junkie. Played with Aquamist circa 89. Water methanol injection is the holy grail, and the AEM product is very reasonably priced. .. Keep the videos coming.

Just an added note.The turbo "charger" was called a turbo "normalizer" like mentioned in the video it started life on airplane engines to compensate for altitude. They didn't make boost they just pressurized the air enough to simulate barometric pressure at sea level.

[@zakpodo]

Kind of crazy that this original 1905 patent would have been for high altitude flight given that manned, powered flight had only achieved a handful of meters at that point. There was rapid development in the years to come but that the impetus for that patent was flight strikes me as bizarre.

[@ardennielsen3761]

yes if you have to use a different type of fuel to get the power goal you want, depending of the combustion rate of that fuel... if its not the same as for what the OEM system was tuned/able to self calibrate for, getting an aftermarket engine management system is almost mandatory if you intend of taking the rpm over what the starter can give it.

[@aterack833]

That “e-turbo” thing is something I’ve thought similar to since I learned that turbos work based on exhaust coming out of the engine being at a higher flow/volume/pressure than the air coming in and thus was free (or otherwise wasted) energy, except I was just thinking more of a exhaust powered alternator, later the whole accessory pack, at some point I thought maybe a variable ratio gearbox to join it to the engine and for a brief moment I thought of using it to charge a hybrid battery, I was close, just not that close, I was also planning on using a gearbox the whole time to bring the speed to that of an off the shelf generator or motor generator, seeing this brings new ideas to mind

I would say that the introduction of the wastegate in 1977 (Saab) and the PID controlled boost pressure in 1981 (Saab) massively contributed to the turbo evolution and improved engine behavior, quality and efficiency for daily usage.

Last year i did read about the jetfire. 2 days later i saw one on a american car party in switzerland. That was very impressive.

[@tomashton1781]

Back in my day, blow off valves were crude, and inter coolers were taking up space, If I had a choice between blowing thru a carb or having a carb in front of the turbo inlet, the fuel charge might help the compressor heat. The real deal with computerized fuel injection ,is each cylinder is equal in flow numbers plus the injectors are timed to each intake valve, so no fuel is wasted during the valve over lap, prior to that cat converters were just a band -aid.

Something notable (and kinda well known but still) is that one reason for Japan’s love of turbos was that taxes for cars were based on engine displacement, so turbocharged smaller displacement engines were more desirable.

[@Swervin309]

Also, in 1962, Allis Chalmers introduced the model D19 row crop tractor with an optional 262 cubic inch turbocharged diesel engine. The first tractor manufacturer to do so.

[@chibacha21_CarBoi]

Thanks for the awesome video, I really enjoyed it! There is more potential for electrically-assisted turbos. Current-gen F1 cars already demonstrate that turbo lag is virtually non-existent and the inertia of the turbo shaft can generate electricity for later use, replacing wastegates as the turbine speed is kept below the turbo threshold. With modern technology, this means that we can have almost perfect boost control depending on engine rpm and load, as well as throttle pedal inputs. Can't wait to implement that tech in a possible future build: a RWD Hyundai Getz powered by a quad-turbo, mid-mounted Viper V10 with a Nissan Exroid CVT. Let's see, I'm still a teen... 🤞
