Thought this was interesting. Don't think I saw it posted anywhere here.

very interesting, nice find!

 

i dont care how it works i want one lol

 

Want! x100

 

awesome

 

In for zzp making one for us

 

No lag and more pressure through a similar size turbo, minty. WANT

 

I kinda wonder how the intake would work? Filter > MAF > Y split pipe > to each intake? Or would it be 2 filters, 2 MAFs etc.??

 

So it's like a dual scroll/compound compressor.

 

looks promising...

 

It's one intake, it splits just inside the turbo

 

I wonder what the heat would be like with it. Not too mention how fast it would spool as compared to a efr. Looks promising if you ask me.

 

very interesting.

 

Definitely interesting..

 

Thats pretty cool. Its like twin turbos but with unit. Literally the results are that of a twin turbo charger setup. Faster torque spikes.

 

At about 1:42 the video specifically says the air is fed from, "two independent inlets".

 

Surprised no one has thought of this before.

 

Yo dawg, I heard you like to go fast! Well now we put a turbo on your turbo! Go twice as fast, super fast with a turbo on your turbo dawg!

but for real, I want...

 

That's pretty awesome! Nice find

 

It's not compound. It's similar to running parallel twins as far as the compressor side. I don't see where the gains are going to come from compared to just running a larger wheel. I've been tossing the idea around for years as far as compounding within one turbo. This dual compressor wheel back to back has crossed my mind a few times, but I can't figure out a good way to route the compressed air to the inlet of the second wheel. At least not one that doesn't have a very large, ugly compressor cover.

 

beauty is in the eye of the beholder

I dont think the gains are any different, just torque coming on faster. My guess is if the turbo was k04 size, it wouldnt be a big benefit... but if it were s252 sized or K04-gt28 hybrid, or 5556 it would benefit. It would cut back on the amount of time needed to build boost. Obviously you cant apply this mod to an existing turbo but I see this being a pretty cool engineering feat. Does this mean there is more potentional for it to break though?

 

Who cares if its ugly!?

I'd still like to know how the intake on this turbo would look with 2 separate inlets...

 

merge into one intake? That way one MAF sensor? At least for us cobalts. lol. Or tune by MAP. Buying two K&N intakes would be too much of a hassle.

 

Interesting. I wonder what the real world benefits will be over a regular variable geometry turbo.

 

lag=traction haha. but how will this work on a lnf? lol lsj ftw
