i remember you showed you had a turbo, never thought this is how youd add it, awesome

[@RadFactoryGav]

Honestly it fits better than I expected

[@boostedproblems5139]

You would have better results if the turbo was before the supercharger. With twin charging you always want the larger unit first, that way it can flow all the air needed, provide some boost, and then the smaller unit further compress the charge. Basically if you are not force feeding the small supercharger (good for 150hp) it can’t flow the 350hp the turbo is capable of

[@RadFactoryGav]

The goal is to build a second I take for the turbo to pull from once at revs. Just blew it up before we got to start lol

[@boostedproblems5139]

The typical way to plumb a compound twincharged system is: Air filter/maf/bov/turbo/throttle body/supercharger/bpv/intercooler/manifold You can even go as far as to use the supercharger bypass valve to shut off the supercharger and let the turbo take over for increased power to the wheels. I did this by using an aux channel on my boost controller that opens a solenoid that supplies vacuum to the bpv actuator, works good for valet mode too because the turbo spools very slowly without the superchargers assistance.

This is awesome. Sucks that it blew but it definitely needs to be tuned. Not sure what you guys are running for engine managment if anything at all, but you should really consider a microsquirt ecu.

The 2.5 unopened is good for 350-400hp and they can be had for fairly cheap. For a trans a good option for that miata would be the 2004-2015 miata NC 6 speed, they came with a 2.0 duratec.

[@lynel1985]

Im building a twincharged lancer. Im pretty certain the turbo chould be feedibg the supercharge not the way you guys have it. Roots style blowers multiply a fixed amount of air pet rotor per rotation; it will be a restriction for the turbocharger when trying to "pull" more air than the fixed amouny of air supplied by the supercharger.

[@RadFactoryGav]

The next step for us was to build a second intake for the turbo to pull more air from at high rpm. Based on a very cool build some guy did with a Saturn sky.

[@claudedottin1312]

@@fastinradfordable 😂 hol up lemme cook

[@jacobslay2527]

@lynel1985 Depends on what the goal is for boost, whether you want stable or compounded. You are right, the blower will displace a fixed amount of air per rotation, and will eventually act as a restriction, however there are 2 positive effects you are ignoring: 1.) It allows for stable boost psi from idle to max rpm, allowing for much more consistent and predictable ride. 2.) As the turbo spools up, it will create a vacuum IN FRONT of the blower. Reducing the load, and power, the blower is using to compress the air, which increases efficiency and results in a net power gain. What you are suggesting is compounded boost. This could allow the engine to go to 15+ pounds of boost. Some systems can even achieve 20+. The problem is that the engine will not survive that. The rad factory guy said in the video that they don't have to worry as long as its between 250-300 hp. Likely going above that will result in overheating, warping, or atworst piston failure and throwing a rod. Edit: That type of system is also prone to surging from what I have gleamed from other videos or articles that cover this. A turbo into supercharger a lot worse for sudden spikes in boost resulting in inconsistent or unpredictable power changes. Again, the turbo into super will undoubtably create more power. There are just too many other factors at play here that make it the wrong decision for this engine and intended use. (Especially if they want a drift car, where predictability is really important)

[@Lagithasubie]

[@tss200]

I really enjoy your video’s. I am not the type to ever comment on videos but felt I might add in some thoughts to consider as I have done a setup like this in the past and had to learn the hard way with damaged turbos. To find out that turbos generally don’t like to have a lot of vacuum on the intake side causing The bearings to fail. Sure before the turbo spoils it will have positive pressure on the inducer but once it starts to flow more than what the supercharger can flow it will be well within a negative pressure.Again I enjoy your videos and offering maybe some food for thought.

[@The.Rad.Factory]

Definitely good to know. We do plan to add some type of valve in between the super and turbo that opens up around 5k. We were just hoping to get it to run for a bit first. Appreciate the thoughts 🤘🏽

[@mohamadnoormdyusuf9483]

I think you need to make the gab ring bigger, when the boost is high, the engine will be hotter, if the gab ring is too close, the piston will break easily, because the piston ring has expanded and meets end to end of the ring

[@RadFactoryGav]

The rings were gapped for boost idk if that was the issue.

[@TheColorsInGreyLife]

Love it! It sounds lean at the top end with possibly the valve timing being off? I dunno, it's a start of the engine with twin charging, tuning is always needed. I like what other commentors said about the o2, idle would be helped with tuning at speed because possible backflow will get worse at higher speeds thanks to wind speeds. A cover or a exhaust pipe heading down will help that. I have to go with gavin on that lol. With 0 compression it could be a head gasket failure, which can happen thanks to high heat and boost. Which could mean too lean but also the boost air wasn't cooled enough as well. Maybe some water injection? Or water methanol? Helps with lean out, but also you have another pump and some other injectors! Anyways, he was saying it was a hot day so it's why I'm "leaning" that way lol. If it turns out it's not any of that, it could be a combo of things. Spark plugs loose, compression rings went, hydrolock from too much fuel from o2 sensor thinking it lean. Like others said. Or valves becoming stuck as well. Unfortunately a good tear down and once over will probably help the most. Side note, from this edit after reading some comments. This is something I noticed too, but typically you would have the super charger feed in from turbo because at lower rpm and lower boost they are pretty okay. The compressor of a turbo becomes more effective & efficient at higher RPM and higher boost. It won't harm the supper charger. But! While I would love to see it, I know how much work that is to a degree. So it might not be considered worth it unless you wanted to push that boost up and drop temps from it. I hope you figure it out and still have fun with it. Love the content.

[@RadFactoryGav]

All good points!! We definitely learned a lot with this first attempt. The O2 is why I want to build a proper exhaust lol. We also want to build a secondary intake for the turbo to get extra air once spooled. There is a guy with a sweet Saturn sky with a version of this set up that we are trying to base the build off.

[@Teddy_Morrison]

You might want to relocate the O2 sensor closer to the turbo outlet because under low flow conditions fresh air can back flow and give the computer a lean condition causing it to add a bunch or fuel. If my the above is true it could have been a hydro lock due to a bad o2 signal.

Need a y split with a electronic gate or at least a one way valve for the turbo intake so it can bypass the supercharger when it’s spooled up. As it stands the whole system is limited to the air the SC screw can move. Ideally you want a magnetic clutch on the SC so it can engage and disengage when needed. To go the cheap route you could make a manual hydraulic clutch for it.

[@_Par1ah]

@@claymore2k1T10 in terms of performance, do you not understand that the supercharger becomes a bottleneck when the turbo is spooled without a way to completely bypass it and remove the parasitic loss?

I think some valve between supercharger and turbocharger should be installed to let freeflow air into turbo when that spooled up (valve controlled by RPM or/and pressure by ecu). Or check is it positivie pressure present between supercharger and turbocharger to make sure that supercharger is not choking turbo when it spool up. Supergarger with electric clutch sould free up some power when turbo takes up boost generating.

[@RadFactoryGav]

We were thinking of adding a second blow off valve lol

[@powercel800]

Just to add, you probably should have the turbo first in line, allowing it to pull in as much air as possible before feeding that to the supercharger as the supercharger will only flow a specific amount of air related directly to the speed at which it is rotating, which then won't allow the turbo to do anything as it will create a vacuum between its inlet and the outlet of the supercharger

[@oliverscorsim]

It's not that one can't run the blower into the turbo it's that in almost all cases you wouldn't want to do that. The thought is that the blower is not a very good compressor at real pressure ratios but the turbo is so you use the blower to feed enough boost to the engine that it acts like a bigger engine and spools the turbo quickly. It does work well. Now on banks pikes peak semi they did it the other way because the turbo they need to run is huge and the atmosphere is thin and it's a diesel. They don't throttle with air but fuel and that means the egts are also low off throttle so no energy to keep the turbo in speed. Feeding the blower through promises a minimum of let's say 30psi already in the charge pipes and intercoolers meaning when they get back on the throttle they can jump into enough fuel to make some power without melting anything due to high egts that extra boost air in a diesel is to cool combustion not to make the actual power if you will. You have a gas engine a Mazda bp series from what i can see. I'd love to see a cheap m90 feeding the engine and a gtx2876 feeding it. I think youl find no lag but keep in mind from a compound turbo guy if that blower is set up to run 1bar or 15 psi and the turbo is set to the same 15psi you won't get 30psi in the engine youl get 45psi 😅 you have to multiply the pressure ratio not add the psi. Given the injector sizes that won't live one gear 😂 and given the boost you need e85 or meth to have a chance I'd start with a standalone and 8 injectors a set that you have and a set of 2200cc to come in with boost

Just be yourself and that is much better my friend. Such as when you are explaining that there aren't big chunks in the motor. You are way more easy to listen to and entertaining. It could just be me but when you are "acting" more excited it just comes off as disingenuous and you don't have to do that at all my friend. You guys are totally entertaining as yourselves. Good luck ok the miata adventure and i hope you guys continue to grow. Good stuff here.

[@fire_node2416]

also check your spark plug gap or get some better plugs because that can make a difference in boost

[@RadFactoryGav]

We did use upgraded spark plugs designed for the Miata with boost.

[@steven44799]

you have done the twin charging backwards, the turbo inlet is meant to be open to the atmosphere, the turbo outlet goes into the inlet of the supercharger and the supercharger goes to the intercooler.

[@RadFactoryGav]

We have seen it both ways

[@delcowizzid]

Definately turbo into the charger

[@CountDrankula0o0]

I do like me a nice pair of Toyotas!

[@friskydingo5370]

😂😂

[@RadFactoryGav]

😂😂😂

[@AT-fz2tv]

Idk why you wanted to push it before proper tuning was done. This is what happens. Time to rebuild that motor again.

[@RadFactoryGav]

It’s hard to tell Dylan to calmly/gently drive 😂

[@JamesManukonga]

In regards to exhaust, if y'all get this thing going well and enjoy it, i think itd be worth redoing all the mounts and relocate everything for 'practicality', then do a standard exhaust setup :)

[@RadFactoryGav]

I definitely like a more standard exhaust. We would have to remove power steering to get anything to fit tighter though

[@amongoose1]

Hell yeah. Another cool video guys!

[@RadFactoryGav]

Thank you!!

[@RadFactoryGav]

[@Biggestmac27]

I love you guys

[@RadFactoryGav]

Thank you!!

[@Zonkobel]

plumbing the supercharger to the turbo would be easier if you would turn the SC upside down. Or is there something in the way

[@RadFactoryGav]

No way to mount it unfortunately the mounts are only on the one side

[@DeliriousGamingNMusic]

I might have to go through this miata series just to count how many times you say “what could possibly go wrong”. I say this every time I do something new to my van

[@unknownunanimous2160]

Sorry to be that guy but Why not break in the motor Also can we name this miata fire hazard Keep trying guys i hope this car/ project lives on and the best of luck to yall

[@RadFactoryGav]

😂😂 fire hazard is amazing

[@HOTRODPOKEMON]

Keep going men let’s gooooooo

[@RadFactoryGav]

Gotta keep trying! Lol

[@cracklingice]

Twin charging is a tuning nightmare. GL.

[@scottcameron5972]

Lol he said I don't know what happened.He was beaten on it with a super charger and a turbo with no tune

[@RadFactoryGav]

It had soooooommmees tuning lol

[@scottcameron5972]

Either way it makes me want another turbo miata to turn it into a kart

[@butters2160]

Are the front rotors on backwards?

[@RadFactoryGav]

Nah don’t think so
