The part about psi making the same HP I don’t think that’s the case going from a gt28 to a gt35 you will see significant gains at the same psi. It’s just the CFM on larger turbos is much higher allowing for more air to flow at a given psi. Think of it like this you have a hose that has 1/8” ID and one with a 1ft ID now pressurize both to 10psi. Which one will have more force behind it if you could theoretically could hold your finger over both?

@vettedoctor66672 жыл бұрын
The dyno is an artificial situation, not real world driving. Most turbo modifications are intended to allow the turbo to spool up quicker, increase pumping efficiency, allow higher boost levels, increase reliability etc. If you are limiting the total boost to a reasonable level (15 PSI) many of these modifications don't matter. On the dyno you even load the engine against the dyno before the run so it masks some of the turbo lag. Since this competition is measuring the max power achieved, even turbo lag doesn't matter that much. As Richard said before, boost is a multiplier. Barring a really bad turbo size selection, you will likely only see minimal changes in the max power output based upon tweaking the AR ratios to reduce backpressure.
@ChurchAutoTest2 жыл бұрын
Cool idea Richard. But I gotta say I'm betting most manufacturers won't bite. I hope I'm wrong and you get a ton of stuff to tests, but no optimistic. Why? Because its the whole system that matters. A more efficient compressor wheel may not put as much heat into the charge, meaning you can change the size of the intercooler. A better design might have all kinds of boost response improvements (maybe even a smaller turbo to begin with) but make the same power. I'm sure there are some combos that will have a big enough difference in back pressure and/or compressor drive power to make a little extra power on the dyno, but it's unlikely there will be huge differences at the same pressure ratio, especially if we are correcting the dyno results for charge temps. Turbo improvements over the last decade seem really focused on getting smaller and smaller turbos to be capable of making more and more power so that we have broad power bands and good fuel efficiency. It was always possible to have a turbo that could feed 2000 hp. But until not long ago it wasn't really possible to put that turbo(s) in a streetable engine/chassis setup. Now we can.
@richardholdener17272 жыл бұрын

@ChurchAutoTest2 жыл бұрын
@@richardholdener1727 Sorry, that was ill phrased. You're basically regulating charge temps in a non-realistic way for real world applications by using dyno water. It's an infinite supply of constant temp water. I haven't done any Bonneville cars in a while, but when we were doing the 1000+ hp 4cyl stuff, using 20 gal intercooler tanks (or bigger) we'd still see massive increases in water temps over a 2 min run cycle. Street cars with minimal reservoirs are worse. And a more efficient compressor will show far more benefit when you don't have the unlimited thermal capacity of a 300+ gal cooling tower. Beyond that, I appreciate trying to dispel myths. But the turbo manufacturers aren't promulgating the idea that bigger is automatically better. It's the corner speed shop guys who also tell you that your engine needs backpressure. I don't think the turbo companies have anything to gain in this situation. If we ever talk, ask me about the turbo comparison we did for Garrett with Toyota between the old GT35R, GTX35 and the GTX35 gen II on a 600 whp 4cyl race car. Very nuanced results that address a lot of what you're getting at.

@@ChurchAutoTest though the people doing serious drag racing mostly use iceboxes for their intercooler setup, which for that short 1/4 mile run will actually outperform dyno water because the intercooler is colder than ambient.

@OCofthe32 жыл бұрын
I don’t think the parameters of the test will highlight the difference in turbo efficiency and actually will make it harder to see. The big air to water intercooler and e85 will act to lower the charge temp which is what you are actually trying to test.

The charge cooler is going to minimize differences and with the dyno water it's not really representative of the reality of a turbo motor in a car. A better test is designed to maximize or highlight differences. So if you ditch the intercooler, you would see many larger turbos that can create the same boost level with less back pressure and lower charge temperatures at (and above) the power peak. The greater charge density and lower back pressure should show up in power but if ignition timing can be increased, that's another potential power increase.

I am willing to bet the Length of the Y pipe sides will put both on different power peaks just like intake will the shorter side better power on top end and longer side better on bottom.. you need to test it with equal manifold pipe lengths instead of the crossover deal from the factory see if there is a difference with both long or short equal not the factory miss matched y !

This is a really great idea, Richard. I encourage more of these challenges. There are a lot of brilliant innovators out there and hopefully the best is yet to come and we'll see the best right here.
