Just lol.

Hang on gunna connect some wires to my old k14 and sell it as an Electric Turbo
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - cwspellowe - 01-01-2013
I can't believe he paid £155 for it and was going to fit it to his RX8

Why would you want a turbo just to drive a small electric motor?

Er, think you got your turbo physics the wrong way round..
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - Niall - 01-01-2013
Now then forgive my ignorance but i dont know a huge amount about turbos. Cant they spin up to about 40,000rpm? If so, i might send him a message for some details/trolling lol

40krpm?
And the rest, my GT was probably up at 150+krpm when it shat itself

Yeah it would have been a deciding factor
Turbos can see up to 120k on compressor maps though. Maybe not advisable but they do do those kinda speeds
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - ozonehostile - 01-01-2013
Ah i see, he's got it driving the compressor, apparently haha
Might message him to see what he thought it would actually be doing lol

Quote:Hi
As im sure your aware, a conventional turbo charger can spin upwards of 70,000rpm when on boost. Can you confirm that this motor is capable of meeting such high demands or is it quite a low powered motor?
thanks

Wait for a reply

RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - Piggy - 01-01-2013
the power draw from the electric motor would be considerable, so much so that I expect there would be a gain in bhp.
like those inline fan thingys
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - Eeyore - 01-01-2013
interesting.... id like to see what it did if someone did fit it!
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - Daniel306 - 01-01-2013
suffocate the engine at anything over idle

Dont know if they gave up on the idea but i know BMW were experimenting with a tri turbo engine for the new m3 one of which was electric. Problem is, the motor needs to be so powerful, its drawing about 80amps so needs a major major alternator on it! Or possibly a second alternator just to drive the turbo.
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - Piggy - 01-01-2013
exactly. outwieghs the gains.
they tested one of those inline fans in a MR2 once...map before and after...it dipped by nearly 10bhp!!
RE: Anyone looking for a new turbo? - cwspellowe - 01-01-2013
Yeah but MightyCarMods tried it with a Datsun iirc and they strapped two leaf blowers to it and it worked.
So FU science.
