Hahahaha. I like that explanation. How they work though is by slamming more air into your cylinder. More compression means faster ignition. faster ignition means more sack in the low end ( and a bit on horse power too), producing faster exaust gasses that spin the turbines and repeat the process. Pretty cool devices. If thinking about installing one though, remember, EVERYTHING down the line that is stock will be put under more stress than it should be under and things that cant take it WILL break. So remember, when putting more power, make sure your stuff can take it! And rev limiters? fuck those things. The yare like fun limiters, amiright?
det414 its all the market man, its stupid but there cost percentage is around 70% which is 40% more than TVs but ya.. they are overpriced, i got my t4 at a junk yard for 50 bucks
BUDDHA BLESS Turbo Diesel. Makes heavy duty engines more powerful and efficient. They're also on big trucks. Kinda doubt they spin up to 100k rpm though, since they're bigger than turbos found on smaller cars, I believe.
Zac Jones The real reason is that sand is too impure, you can't have a natural material be 100% smooth and uniform 100% of the time. Man made "sand" guarantees that the mold will come out perfect every time, which is needed on something as precise as a turbocharger.
Wow the other comments here are genius. The intake side is cast aluminum for the housing usually with a harder metal for the wheel. Using aluminum on the exhaust side would quickly leave all your dreams of going fast in a puddle of molten metal.
It takes "15 minutes" to assemble all the parts that are made specifically for this application. Meaning it cost thousands to produce. From raw casting to completely assembled turbo charger, takes many man hour collectively.
+richardxeelee tell that to Sir Humpry, as he was a British chemist who couldn't make his own mind as to how to call this -new a the time- element. Aluminum is more sexy name.
+richardxeelee It's "Aluminium" if you're a Brit; "Aluminum" to everyone else. Just kidding; to be fair, "Aluminium" is the world-recognized name (acknowledged by educated Americans but rarely used), but say that word anywhere in the US (especially in aircraft-related businesses) and you will likely be the subject of seemingly endless ridicule.
"Helps small engines compete with large ones with out guzzling extra fuel" if you turbo anything with out adding "extra" fuel coming from A naturally aspirated engine your gonna have a bad time :/
I mean if the engine never sees that boost, i.e. wastegate valve is completely open or removed altogether lmao. Hell, I wanna see how the fancy EFR snails are built!
Yes. Except diesels don't play by the same rules, which is why even under boost they get better fuel economy than a diesel with no turbo. A gas turbo engine, on the other hand, is less efficient at power peak than a similar naturally aspirated gas engine.
It's nice to see how exactly turbochargers are made. I've always had a rough idea, and know how they worked, but the whole sand casts is definitely a new to me, and cool part of the process.
No, because they show how it's made from scratch; from the molds, to the parts and to the assembly itself. Of course, they don't show how every part is made but still.
ya I get the price assuming they're paying off all that fancy milling and balancing equipment. But if that's all paid for then shit that's a big profit margin.
ThomasRocksU yeah but they don't sell like lolly's lol, mostly for wages and running cost then transport cost to the seller to which the seller wants to make money.
Thanks man, Glad you and a couple others are helping me understand this completely, I like to know what I'm talking about when talking cars with others less familiar with cars. Even when the less familiar is myself at times. Lol
The first jet motors used by the allies like in the Gloster Meteor were simple centrifugal pieces more like a large fuel burning turbocharger. And actually turbochargers were used to prevent negative G stalls and raise service ceilings on carbureted aircraft engines as much as for added power. Allison had a two in one super/turbocharger on their engine that was way ahead of its time.
This was totally useless should have been titled "how a turbo housing is made and turbo assembled" because that's all it shows. It doesn't show how turbines or bearings or center housings are made or anything useless.
I'm talking about the turbo INTERNALS. The count of the blades, the angles, the shape, the orientation, there are quite a few trade secrets in the turbocharger business
you cant get any exact info that would be required to copy one from a video. Particularly not any more than you could get by buying one. Pretty much needless to say, but if anyone actually posed a threat of copying trade secrets, I would very much hope they could at least afford to buy one turbo to measure. Therefore making a video
TheRealestEver The correct way is alu-mini-um, but we're American, so we do things differently for no apparent reason other than being American, such as still using the Imperial system instead of the Metric system. As a result, Aluminum is proper in American English only; Aluminium is proper internationally, including England, that country from which our language is named after and originated from. So please, if you're going to say it, say it correctly: Alu-mini-um.
There is a claim that Karl Joseph Bayer, who discovered it, called it Aluminum, and that at the time, the English thought it would sound better with the "ium" ending which was becoming popular with newly discovered elements at the time. I've been unable to find an actual source for this though. "um" is technically just as valid, like platinum.
Yes, the bearing is a hydrodynamic journal, as the shaft spins faster the oil pressure increases and makes a better bearing. Some turbo chargers now have ball bearings but they still require constant lubrication.
I worked on developing a machine that automates the repair process for turbocharger impellers. It uses a laser to build up repair material onto the turbine impeller and nozzle guide vane, in order to salvage parts subjected to foreign object damage Those impellers are sometimes made from nickel superalloys, making them a bastard to weld conventionally.
from what ive seen the air goes to one turbine at a set speed causing it to quickly spin. the rod causes a large on to spin at the same speed and cause the air to compress itself.
To small of a company, to feel comfortable giving it's name (for me to stay anonymous). Re-manufactured: Rajay, Garret, Holset/Cummings, BW. I'm like a Jack-of-all-turbos. Some are easy, some are a pain. Small ones, big ones...some twice the size of your head. I don't touch many of the VGs ones, but I have (they take a lot more time).
Saab used to make their highest model of 9-5 in 02-05 a 4 cylinder turbo that pushed 250 horse. the lowest end was the same engine with a lower end turbo that got 185 horse. the middle one was a 6 cylinder with 700cc more displacement and it only got 200 horse with the same turbo as the lowest model. the two 4 cylinder models had the same fuel economy as eachother and the 6 had about 2/3 the fuel economy of either. there is no replacement for displacement, but turbos increase the max potential
Because when you rotate an mass about an axis that is not through its center of mass, you get crazy vibration? Did you not notice that the compressor housing was being turned on a lathe?
Peenut Gallarry "Compressed air means you are able to achieve a bigger 'bang' with the same amount of gasoline. So a turbo charged 2 litre engine can reach the power level of much larger engines without having to add more gasoline." That is exactly what the guy at 0:38 probably meant but apparently the message can be missunderstood into the worse.
You sir are correct...apparently no one else is listening...I understood what he meant as soon as he (the narrator)said it...they didn't get it because they don't really know how a turbocharger works. Well said...
what your talking about is called "sequential" turbos twins turbos are both the exact size and volume hence being twin, but do still typically spool faster than on large single turbo but don't usually put out as much boost as a single, a sequential setup tries to address both issues but is very difficult to tune.
amazing how the knock off turbos are 125 bucks and work just fine-did notice these ones are assembled a bit differnt in that they have a bolt on thrust washer you can buy one though for about 70 bucks drill and tap-im getting pretty good at ripping apart and trying differnt combos-i just bought a godspped one that cant wait to try 259 shipped-thanks for the video -super nice
I casted alot of these in my foundry years, lot of hard work and many battle scars were earned from this type of work. I wonder what foundry this is, cause the one where I worked was located in Spring Lake, Michigan
The reason for this is that the factory ecu calibration keeps the a/f ratio very rich on these cars when your in boost, plus the timing map is very conservative also to provide a safety cushion against detonation if people choose to use regular 87 octane fuel. This makes the engines with a factory calibrated ecu have to work harder and rev out to higher RPMs in order to accelerate the vehicle which uses more fuel than it truely needs.
few compressor wheels are 5-axis machined and all the aerodynamics is more a modern thing. at one time it was common to see strait blades so anything curved was an improvement, the more math they apply the better. most turbo parts are cast and the finish machining is done on 2-axis lathes. the complex shapes of the compressor are molded in wax from molds that are either complex or flexible so that the wax releases. the wax is dipped in a slurry to make a shell then wax is melted out.
It is a device taking the pressure from the exhaust to increase the pressure of the air going into the engine. This allows the engine to combust more fuel, wich in return give you more power. If you also cool the compressed air you can get a better fuel economy for thermal dynamic reason (wich I cant explain in 200 caracters)
I haven't seen many turbo's in person, but the ones i've seen are located between the air intake and manifold i think by a series of pipes? Maybe I'm just confused with somethign else though. Enlighten me someone lol
AviMore is correct. Also, an internal combustion engine tries to hold a perfect ratio between air/fuel. So getting more air means you can then add more fuel, meaning, like Avi said, more power
In SOME situations (mostly at low-mid throttle) a turbocharged engine is more efficient because you're using exhaust energy to do the air pumping where a NA engine would have high pumping losses (the energy to pump the air is taken from the crank and at partial throttle it's worse because of the low intake pressure).
Just wondering a big turbo means a lot of power and the small turbo give small power or is it the other way? Kinda confused here please someone explain it to me. Thankyou,
To those complaining about the cost for what takes 15 minutes to build: I used to work in a Saab specialty shop, The most common failure we saw (aside from bearing failure from improper maintenance and cool down) was the exhaust side cast iron housing would crack. The housing was so expensive that people would gladly pay us to braze the crack shut with absolutely no warranty. The turbo cartridge was fairly cheap for a precision item, but those hand made sand cast housings were horribly expensive...
When an ice dam forms on a roof (usually caused by poor attic insulation/ ventilation), ice and water can work their way up under the shingles and leak back into the house. Also, strong winds can blow rainwater under shingles. Self-stick roofing underlayment (often called “ice-and- water” underlayment) can prevent this because it sticks to the roof decking to seal out water. It also seals around nails, which keeps water from leaking through nail holes.
Well both turbo's and supercharger's run off of air I know that much. A turbo spins as air is sucked in through the intake and creating more air flow and boost. And a supercharger also uses air but houses two spiral looking turbines that spin with each other creating boost too I suppose. I'm still learning, but I think that's a good start right?
takes 15 minutes to make, but takes hours to install >.
***** haha well versed good sir

A turbo: exhaust gasses go into the turbocharger and spin it, witchcraft happens and you go faster
Hahahaha. I like that explanation.
How they work though is by slamming more air into your cylinder. More compression means faster ignition. faster ignition means more sack in the low end ( and a bit on horse power too), producing faster exaust gasses that spin the turbines and repeat the process. Pretty cool devices.
If thinking about installing one though, remember, EVERYTHING down the line that is stock will be put under more stress than it should be under and things that cant take it WILL break.
So remember, when putting more power, make sure your stuff can take it!

There also happens to be all that R&D involved, tooling, etc... that factors into cost as well.
it's all that fuckin sand, man.
i know dude, is because demand, only car enthusiasts but this things while the other 99% of the population dont even know what a turbo is...
Well aluminium isn't very cheap, especially the ones used to build the turbo
100,000 RPM? Can you imagine what would happen if that thing shattered?
shrapnel, lots of shrapnel. And plenty of energy to slice through your thin sheet metal hood too.
They can reach 250.000 easy
My bus driver literally has a turbocharger on our bus, you can hear it.

Next time you're on the beach, or enjoying an hour glass, just think where we'd be without SAND.
This isn't the same kind of sand you find at the beach or in an hour glass at all, It's specialized man made stuff.
Zac Jones The real reason is that sand is too impure, you can't have a natural material be 100% smooth and uniform 100% of the time.
Man made "sand" guarantees that the mold will come out perfect every time, which is needed on something as precise as a turbocharger.
You wouldn't be in the bathroom harvesting it out of your ass after a huge wave bowled you over and it got in your shorts.
Hats off to who made the first Turbo Charger
that would be swiss engineer Alfred Büchi
Alexander D Cossey Alfred prolly picked up bitches in his turbocharged Mustang then.
that moment you realize that you thought Turbo's were Steel, but are actually cast aluminum...

It aggravates me how Americans pronounce aluminium, It's aluminium not aluminum
It is not. Aluminum. We won the war so our way is correct over yours.
Don't worry mate, I say Alumin-E-um too. The i in aluminium came first, by the way.

god those turbos look amazing
Man that's amazing stuff hey!
Beautiful!!
Yes, the bearing is a hydrodynamic journal, as the shaft spins faster the oil pressure increases and makes a better bearing. Some turbo chargers now have ball bearings but they still require constant lubrication.
i love snails they can go as fast as they want
That's a pretty freakin awesome process!
I worked on developing a machine that automates the repair process for turbocharger impellers. It uses a laser to build up repair material onto the turbine impeller and nozzle guide vane, in order to salvage parts subjected to foreign object damage Those impellers are sometimes made from nickel superalloys, making them a bastard to weld conventionally.
from what ive seen the air goes to one turbine at a set speed causing it to quickly spin. the rod causes a large on to spin at the same speed and cause the air to compress itself.
does all turbos need a constant supply of oil to lubricate the shaft and bearings?
How beautifull is that ! :)
Super vidéo très instructive.
Love how its made!
thanks for the video man! now i know how to make turbocharger...i'll make one for my car
So basically I just have it backwards I think. So do the exhaust gases create some type of back-pressure to help spin the turbo?
Great video!
the precision involved and there all handmade such craftsmanship is not cheap
Very informative thanks :)
good video for rebuilding a turbo.
this would be a really cool summer job
I get to build turbochargers all day. They only take 10-20min/each to put together once you have all the correct parts.
That's cool, for what company?
+Hot Rod Lincoln probably garrett turbos they make them in house not around town like most comapnies.

Yeah that first one that was put in was a bushing, it was solid metal. The second one was a bushing, i noticed, though.
When he said: "He inserts the shaft," I lost it. LAWL
And the added efficiency is a bonus too...

I work at a pattern shop and we make those boxes. called core boxes.
I maybe wrong but wasnt the first turbo used on diesel engines?
thank you, very clear.
Machines are the true form of art
Brilliant invention! Got one on my kawasaki bike!
depends on the car, a spare turbocharger for my car is bout 1500€. there are also some company's around that repair/mod turbochargers.
To those complaining about the cost for what takes 15 minutes to build:
I used to work in a Saab specialty shop, The most common failure we saw (aside from bearing failure from improper maintenance and cool down) was the exhaust side cast iron housing would crack. The housing was so expensive that people would gladly pay us to braze the crack shut with absolutely no warranty.
The turbo cartridge was fairly cheap for a precision item, but those hand made sand cast housings were horribly expensive...
great idea:D
where does it go? the turbo where does it hook up too I bought one for my v10 chysler gmc 1989

no no, the correct soung for a turbo is "zutututututututututututu!
+2jz power! Lolno
2jz power! No, that's the part where you were supposed to shift up about 500rpm ago!
+BigBadBeef i think he meent the turbo flutter without a blow off valve
EatSleepJDM 4Lyfe yes, i just exaggerated the "tu" lol
Well that escalated quickly.
Sweet! Now I know what to do with all the sand here in FL and all that molten aluminum I have laying around!
Essentially, the turbocharger gets it energy from the exhaust gasses. Those gasses spins the mechanism which in turn compresses intake gasses.
howmuch do those machine cost they make it with...? Exactly
Nice video
That was Lucas assembly lube for those questioning what oil they were assembling the bearings with.
that's amazing , may be i'll build it at my country
@metallicakid83 I don't much bi I would guess because its brand new and the bearings have to be broken in first.
awesome!!
will it blend?
I drive an SI, honda tuning generally runs on the "cheapaer" side... like a greddy gt3076r
more than that with supporting mods with cooling,exhaust etc.
"It shrinks to the shaft for a tight fit"
I would have loved to see the compressor wheel of a Garrett GTX-series being machine on a 5-axis CNC Mill
The green substance applied on the bearing is not a lubricant, it is a bearing fixing compound.
I think it was in early or mid 70s where Turbochargers first was used officially in motorsports.
Well both turbo's and supercharger's run off of air I know that much. A turbo spins as air is sucked in through the intake and creating more air flow and boost.
