I have to think that is what you said, since that is what i read Anyhow the statement is false since it says that bigger compressor and smaller turbine will raise both torque and power. Truth is that biggest ever turbine will give maximum torque and power as long as we are happy with spool.Allx skrev:What statement was not true? You think that i meant that a smaller turbine will give more power?
Regarding compressor size the one that have the highest efficiency will give max power and that means it must be a match to the engine and power demand (not bigger=better)
Nice! By this thread you have learned something new then. REMEMBER, the ones that tell you to throw away a turbo and not is capable to calculate it´s pros and cons. They are Turbo manufacturers or turbo suppliers and if you do not throw away old stuff they could quit their workAllx skrev: I would never have thought that someone would not recommend throwing an old dieselturbo in the garbage.
It could also be a "youngster" that have seen a lot of advertising and thinks that the new stuff is a "must" if you want top of the line power (wich is wrong)
Try and scan this forum and you will find a lot of people building cars that outperform many others and they use "diesel" turbos (actually there is not such a thing as dieselturbo, it is just different sizing)
Also many manufaturers that sell "race" turbos, just pick stuff from their diesel-line and put them together in right dimensions (look at Borg Warner S-series)
On my behalf, i immediately understood that the turbo and/or engine was not maxed out, that is why i did not recommend anything until i get a better input.Allx skrev: From what the threadstarter describes it is almost the same as the 18T turbo on a B230 with agap (maybe) camshaft that I tuned today. VE falling of after 6200 and around 330 hp at 1.5 bar of boost.
