Super informative presentation, thx for for your work. Also no the way you did it with the bleed valve illustrated the differences in turbos better and the back pressure chart was cool

[@crw3673]

This turbo comparison, reminds me of cams. Smaller cam, more responsive down low. Not as powerful. Large cam, fall off down low, more power up top!

[@GnarshredProductions]

you are correct. Smaller turbo makes boost at lower rpm and better for torque but runs out of breath up top in the higher rpm's, bigger turbo doesn't light off until higher rpm's but when it does come on pulls like a freight train up top. An engine with a smaller cam would probably be better with a smaller turbo and bigger cam should have bigger turbo. It's all a balancing act where you have to choose components based on what sort of rpm range you want the engine to make the power at.

[@patlandymore7035]

Great test! At some future point it will be really interesting to see a back to back comparison of different exhaust housings on the same turbo. Suspect it will be a bit like the LSA cam test.

What would have been really interesting was advancing the cam in the larger turbo to see if you could recover the low end torque to match the smaller turbo at what cost to peak horsepower.

Hey Richard, been enjoying your videos for a while now. As soon as i saw this title an idea poped into my head for the junkyard guys. Would you consider getting a bunch of popular junkyard turbos together an testing then out? Hx35w, twins maybe? duramax turbos? Semi turbo (lol exhaust) im sure theres more but itd be sweet if it sparked an idea to test out some low buck junk again!

[@michaelblacktree]

I like this idea. Also, I'd like to see how turbos from diesel engines work on gasoline engines.

That’s an comparison I’d like to see , a junkyard turbo shootout.! I’ve got a home brew setup: Its a 5 ton deck carrier with HX35 huffing a blow through on 427 tall deck . 10 psi is where I’ve capped with big a increase in usable power .

A neat test would be to see what power each of these turbos would make on the same test motor maxed out. Put 25-30# spring in the wastegate and let them eat on race gas. That will really show the difference in the hotsides and back pressures.

[@kirbycleland2288]

I've been watching alot of your videos and I absolutely love them! I'm learning alot! I live in South Dakota and I want to build a sbc or ls twin turbo with a blow through style fuel injection from Holley for my 4x4 squarebody chevy pickup. I want this to be daily driven year around summer and winter. Is this a bad idea or I guess any do's, dont's, or advice on the extreme cold in winter for doing a twin turbo blow through fuel injection build?

Now I know this is difficult to do on the dyno, but would like to see the difference down low as well as up top. Thanks again for providing great information for all of us.

[@thehappytexan]

I assume a 2:1 drive psi to boost psi ratio always equates to more responsiveness, but at what point do reach diminishing returns? A 1:1 ratio is probably more ideal, but is also more lazy down low? I’ve heard so many horror stories about toasting exhaust valves from excessive drive pressure, and how you have to have inconel valves. What’s your opinion on ideal drive pressure at max boost while also having response for a street car?

[@corystansbury]

So I'm not Richard, but did a lot of work in Turbo Vipers and a very well known, record-holding 911 turbo. In my viewpoint, traditional turbos (I'll until recently) would drive like an OE application with max target EBR of 2 (and tuning needs to watch EGTs), had a good mix of power and streetability around 1.3-1.5, and became very racecar at 0.8-1. These days, I feel like a very power-capable turbo can be made to make power everywhere without needing to go to 2... More like 1.5-1.7. A perfectly streetable turbo is now in the 1.1-1.3 range, and race applications are well under 1. Some of what we see here is the issue with manifolding 8 cylinders into one turbo. You just can't use the exhaust energy that efficiently versus a well designed twin system. Puts you very much in my "traditional" category.

[@Hatcher426]

@@corystansbury this is why I would love a test like this with the same turbo s475 but with a nice turbo header hot side and see the backpreasure comparison. I want 700 wheel and still be a fun street car with a head cam fuel system 5.3 or 5.7 this looks like the setup with an ar change or headers on the hot side.

[@richardholdener1727]

back pressure is only 1 part of the response equation-and something you look at after you have done everything you can to improve na power production

[@ahoneyman]

Double the air and double the fuel gives you double your original bang. Big hotside impellers need a lot of wind to get started spinning. Before they start really spinning it's basically just in the way. Size your turbo to be on boost at the rpms you see most often.

[@Meineke-pm7eq]

Would have liked to see a 4.8 and a 6.0 and then two turbos. 1 a s475 with a 1.32 AR and the other a s475 with a .96 or 1.0 AR. That way you see what the hot side change is vs engine size.

[@foxairandheatinc8345]

Nice videos. Keep up all the great work. The reason one turbo makes more hp per psi on the same setup is because of where it is on the compressor efficiency map. As it becomes less efficient, it starts generating more heat and less airflow, thus reduced power. And it depends on the application. There is always a limit to how much octane, boost and timing you can get into a motor. Lowering the compression will allow you to run more boost and timing without detonation. If you exceed the turbo's efficiency map it can no longer produce enough air to keep up with the boost required. Thus is falls off.

[@richardholdener1727]

the amount of power a turbo supplies is a function of the na power much more than the map position

[@foxairandheatinc8345]

@@richardholdener1727 I would rather drop the compression and run higher boost and make more horsepower than run a high compression na motor that makes great power off boost with limited boost due to getting into detonation

[@stevesolo16]

One issue that should be looked at is whether or not it is worth spending the extra money on dual ceramic ball bearings or does the traditional film layer/journal style better suits your needs? Not everyone needs pricey ball style bearings. Most people don't even know how to run them correctly. They flood the bearings with the wrong type of motor oil, which will hinder the balls from spinning in the races. Ball bearings actually need very little "race" oil. A fine mist is what high-quality bearings are designed to work with. They need just enough to keep them cool and from making metal to metal contact with their surroundings. Many times film layers/journals are superior to balls if it is going to have a super high shaft speed(small turbos) and only a hydro-dynamic layer can cope or the engine is going to get street use. Research before dropping $2500 bucks on a turbo when a $900 dollar unit might meet all your goals and even last longer, in some cases. There are some really good companies here, in the U.S. who make their own niche' turbos. There are some really smart guys here in America ready to help you with one phone call. Try getting genius-level answers when calling an overseas manufacturer. If you are watching Mr. Holdener's videos, take notes. His experience is invaluable.

[@russelljackson7034]

[@bluejay693]

Awesome video! Got a video idea. Could you do a test on a centrifugal blower where you pulley way down to try and bring on boost harder and just use a watsegate to vent any extra boost up top? I always wondered if that would work. Would probably run into belt slip early but I'm not sure

[@richardholdener1727]

I do love these tests. However, I do wish the comparisons were more apples to apples. In this case I would have liked to see an electronic boost control used because I think the top end difference would have been a lot less drastic. Just my opinion.

[@BrockJaden]

Isn't that where looking at the compressor maps come into play? Figuring out the efficiency of the turbos at the power levels you're looking for. Now, obviously the compressor map isn't going to help you choose a hotside, but it's definitely needed when selecting what turbo to use for your power goals. I'm in the process of selecting a turbo for a twin charging application on a 4.6 2v modular and it's looking like I'm going to need an s488 for the power levels I'm wanting at the boost levels I'll be looking for. It will be feeding through an intercooled m122 supercharger. Most people when twincharging make the mistake of not selecting a big enough primary to support their goals at the boost level that the primary will be running at and then they get frustrated when they can't make the top end power they were expecting. Maybe you could do a twincharging test to showcase how choosing the primary is so important in a twincharging compound boost setup.

Richard, Looking at your graphs, at around 5,800-5,900 both turbos are producing the same boost, with the larger turbo making ~20-30hp more. Is this a result of the lower back pressure of the larger turbo, and does the larger compressor wheel have any part to play? If it’s purely a function of the back pressure, is there some sort of formula that you can apply to work out how much Torque you would need to sacrifice to drive the differential back pressure over boost pressure?

Does it not seem like maybe your wastegate could be undersized? You can see where the gate opens at 4700 (475) and 5100 (480) and they seem to not bypass as much exhaust flow as needed to keep a flat boost curve after wastegate opens. Just a thought.

[@2GSpyderTurbo]

Or is your correlation of backpressure to boost responsible for what I'm seeing in the boost curve with a rise in boost after the gate opens?

[@bdugle1]

This is another super informative video. Thanks! I wonder though, when a different size engine (like 4.8 vs 6.0, like you were using as examples) makes the same power, isn’t the hot side flow the same? Lbs/min airflow in would have to equal lbs/min out, seems like. The little engine would take longer to get there, but the resulting flow should be the same-or not? Would pinning the waste gates closed with CO2 affect the way the boost comes in? Is there a solution using variable A/R, like a diesel turbo? Is there a way to get the back pressure curve you showed on the BBC with twin eBay turbos on the little LS? Inquiring minds...

[@lordhumungous7908]

I thought pound for pound flow was a good measure when looking for junk yard diesel turbos to use on a gas engine. I figured that my gas engine will run half the boost and double the rpm of the diesel so it all works out. But it turns out that it's not about matching mass flow but matching volume flow. So a 7.5L gas engine that turns to 5000rpm will need a turbo from a 15L diesel that turns to 2500rpm.

[@boosthit811]

This is why I would always choose to use twins on V engines. Back pressure is too high and the crossover point is so early in rpm range.

[@alj2264]

Is it possible to run a quick spool valve that chases boost pressure for example { 8 LB of boost @ 12 LB of back psi } { 16 LB of boost @ 24 LB of back psi } { 28 LB of boost @ 28 LB of back psi } This would be achieved by using a quick spool valves on a twin scroll housing With an actuator spring psi of 29.4 PSI { atmospheric psi 14.7 x 2 = 29.4 } To avoid choke flow

when a test about oil pump and how much hp we can have when we "decompress" the block, how many hp can give oil pump sistem or exhaust sistem? also a question, if i boost an na engine, i should increase the oil pressure or i leave the same? when an oli pump upgrade have sense?
