must see... stupid go kart !!!

I was thinking about your turbo this morning...You need to speed up the exhaust gasses because you do not have enough volume. What if you were to build up the walls inside the exhaust side of the turbo with JB weld? Sort of the opposite of porting? shrinking the exhaust between motor and turbo in diameter speeds up the flow. Now you need to wrap that pipe between the turbo and the engine so it does not lose heat. Hot air flows faster.
I have turbo'd cars and such but the stuff I turbo usually has at least 383 cubic inches...I think you could get that to work (and by "work" I mean spool up and sound neat) but you might have to go on the noisy side of the 3600 redline to get there.

JB weld will never hold up to the heat of exhaust gas's in internal combustion engines exceeding 1300F. What was it JB melts at in the other thread? was it 450F?

Looking , so what oil pump did you end up getting ? You mounting the oil tank up high for gravity feed somewhat or low for primeer pumping ? I looked at the Drill Pumps and there are quite a few different ones ,,Bill

look at the previous page pics are there! i dont have the choice to put the tank elsewhere than under the turbo to freely catch "used" oil

and for the wall building thingny... inside the "hot" side of the turbo there is a pipe that goes down and directs the exhaust gasses directly at the turbine!

now the only thing that stress me... the blue silicone coupler... will it hold atomized fuel... i dont hink heh?

I was just reading up on my Garret Turbo I have off a 2000cc Dodge Daytona , it only requires 30 Psi oil presure , on the Drill Pumps that supply 60 Psi it was reqimended to use a feed line with a .109" thosanths orifice to bring the PSI down to 30 - 35 Psi for the Turbo , it also said that a oil tank should be lower than the Turbo for best scavenging purposes , if there is a restriction in the scavenging then the oil will back up and blow past the inner oil seals in the Turbo and enter the exhaust side of the Turbo , thought this was interesting cause my Turbo has been sitting on the shelf for years now looking for a home , lol , I`m now wondering what it would do for my 185cc Honda trike motor I`m gonna use in my Kart , lol , Bill

yeah i'm gonna have to put a pressure gauge and probably a bleed off valve to bring down the pressure...

you wanna turbo your honda
DO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO ITDO IT DO IT ! lol

ok guys i have a big problem! i need a hose of some sort to plug the compressor on the intake... i need someting very flexible but yet able to resist atomized fuel? i thought of 2 90deg couplers but i think seamless pipe would be better! any ideas...

i need something that can roughly do that shape

 

[Kenny_McCormic]

Radiator hose.

 

[88s10Durango]

PVC pipe with elbows ??

 

[lemegacool]

tough of the radiator hose, the proble is finding one that will fit...

and for pvc pipes, it can handles gas? if so i'm probably going to go with this... thanks

PVC pipe degrades after use with gasoline, but radiator hose comes in ALL different sizes. You may need to get a truck hose, but it will work.

 

[mattlepperd]

Get the blue silicone radiator hose.

 

[572bigblock]

That, sir. is totally awesome!!!

you should try to drive it into a grocery store just to see what they say! lol

They would say, "Get out of my grocery store"

lol

well was bored this afternoon so i made the turbo's flange out of 1/8 a36 steel . looks neat!

 

[Kaptain Krunch]

Looks good, i see you use blue sharpie? I use purple myself...but whatever floats your boat :rolleyes3:

 

[EagleTalons]

I use purple too! I call it the magic cutting marker. Cause whatever gets marked gets cut!

 

[lemegacool]

the blue came from my laptop's cooling pad fans LMAO! but i use black sharpie

 

[maximumbob]

Looks great. What did you use to cut the center whole on the flange?

I think we are all anxiously awaiting your results.

a hole saw... lol took 25mins on the lowes setting in the press drill (cheapo baby press drill lol)

yeah i just noticed that the turbo wont spool anymore probably (no... surely) due to the fact the there is approx 60 psi of oil in it ...
awwww crap now it have to rig a pressure bleed off valve and a gauge... the more money and time i put on this thing, the more i'm thinking it will not work oh well time will tell us

 

[Rotore]

nice work keep me posted i'm interested in the end result
