I am working on some new material for the TS and would like to ask for your help.

I need the top 10 questions asked about turbochargers. This will be edjucational for all.

1.What is the optimal pressure ratio between compressor and turbine? / Optimal exhaust inlet pressure?
2.When to use a restrictor? What size feed line?
3.what does A/R and Trim mean?
4.what does XXmm turbo mean?
5.what does Trim mean? (not the girl kind)
6.
7.
8.
9
10.

 

What is the optimal pressure ratio between compressor and turbine?

 

Optimal exhaust inlet pressure?

 

When to use a restrictor? What size feed line?

 

Great questions!!! Please keep them coming.

 

what does A/R and Trim mean? what does 72mm turbo mean?

was thinking basic, maybe too basic.

updated the list.

 

Since these motors have a hard time making high boost pressure, what can we do to change that? What options do we have to yeild higher charge pressure?

 

Choosing back housings what size is right for my engine?

 

Downpipe sizing with power levels. see alot of guys running 4" Downpipes for 450-500 HP. i think that is a bit overkill.

 

How is Miller making 400hp more than everyone else LOL!!!! j/k

 

Lol. That's a good one.

 

What benefits can I gain from logging pressures and temperatures?

 

true deffinition of divided housing vs. twin scroll. more so wht a divided housing isnt necessarilly twin scroll.
(i still dont know i am sorry)

 

intresting thread

 

nice thread.........can u do one on the new "secret TC"

 

"How do I identify what turbo I have, size, specs,etc...?"

 

not sure if your shooting for beginner-type questions, but "how to read a compressor map" could be one

 

I like this one also!

 

If I can get EMAP below MAP can I use pressure waves in the exhaust to scavenge by adjusting the lengths of the primary tubes in the exhaust in the same way that we can with a naturally aspirated setup?

 

hahaha

 

I am not making that much more

 

I read and hear this one all the time. Does a larger turbo produce more power at the same psi?

 

Here's one I hate his turbo don't work cause his boost gauge reads negative boost.
Add it to your list as how to read a boost gauge fawking no0bs
