Superchargers

i love lingenfelter, sucks that he died, woulda liked to have shook his hand. him and zorka duntov, and smokey yunick. and a few others. gods of the chevy small block.

And when the smallblock came out, no one thought it would work as it does now.

lingenfelter.com only sell twin turbo corvettes, they dont acctually sell turbo systems... or atlest i couldnt find 1

[Viper_Storm]

lol, if someone could recommend a brand of turbo, and model, i want 2 smaller ones... for tons of power and very little to no lag, and if you could recommend a intercooler that would be great to

TO THE INTERNET!!!!!!!!





i shall return with the information....... or something funny at least

lol, im already at the internet, just to lazy to use it. Im gonna be greedy and ask that you come back with both because 1, id like to know and 2 its good to have a good laugh once and awhile... or in AF's case everyday sometimes 4 or 5 times a day

[89IROC&RS]

i think this took me all of three seconds to find....

search "LS1 turbocharger system" its the first link that comes up on dogpile.com

how does the horse power drop as rpms rise? shouldnt it be making more power at the higher rpms?

[89IROC&RS]

and for my L98 bretheren.....

interesting, too much for my 700R4 to handle, aside from the fact that i want to stay naturally asperated. but down the road, it would be sweet to build a twin turbo 302 backed by a six speed and a moser 12bolt with 4.10 gears

[89IROC&RS]

not nessesarily. all engines have a point of peak volumetric efficiency, if you continue to accelerate past that point the speed of the engine and the valve timing negitively impact the ability of the engine to fill its cylenders, when you cant get as much air and fuel in, you cant get as much power out.

[Viper_Storm]

ok, but in an ls1 power should keep going till atleast 5500 right?

[89IROC&RS]

again, it has to deal with volumeteric efficiency, the turbocharger is set at a max psi, so once it reaches that, it stops building power, and the engine starts its downward trend, im not entirly sure but i would guess that upping the psi would move the power peak out, but youd have to talk to someone like hypsi about it. but remember i pointed out the centrifugal supercharger kept building power up to high rpms and might have the higher peak power. note the graph. however it sacrifices alot of low end grunt. if you were to line the two up side by side. even with equal peak power numbers, the turbo with more off the line pull would probly win.

[Earlsfat]

okokok, so what's the deal with the PSI it adds... if that's too high will it blow out a cylinder wall or something???

If you're running say 180 psi per cylinder, what's your limit if you add a turbo or s/c???

[Viper_Storm]

i just noticed that you posted 2 links before, and the 1st link, you pop the hood and it looks f-ing amazing under that hood, i could pop my shit and no one would be any wiser to what i have....
