Since this is a special case and there are so many ways to go about an ultimate power diesel application, it is not possible to cover it adequately in this article. There are, however, some general guidelines. At this power level, as stated above, it is a good idea to consider a series turbo application. This is a situation where one turbo feeds another turbo, sharing the work of compressing the air across both compressors.
The low-pressure compressor feeds the high-pressure compressor which then feeds the intake. On the turbine-side the exhaust first passes through the high-pressure turbine and then on to the low-pressure turbine before being routed out through the tailpipe.
We can still calculate the required mass flow, but the pressure ratio is more involved and questions should be discussed with your local Garrett Powermax distributor. To calculate the required mass flow, we use the normal equation. This time the power target will be wheel horsepower over stock, for a total of wheel horsepower. This air flow rate will apply only to the low-pressure compressor as the high-pressure compressor will be smaller because it is further pressurizing already compressed air.
In most cases, the high-pressure turbo tends to be about two frame sizes smaller than the low pressure stage. Generally speaking, the proper turbine housing is the largest one that will give acceptable boost response on the low end while allowing for more optimal top end performance. This information should be used as a starting point for making decisions on proper turbo sizing. Of course, for more specific information on your engine, consult a Garrett Powermax distributor.

Choosing the right Turbo Choosing a performance turbocharger starts with a horsepower target. Performance Upgrade Choosing The Right Turbo Boost adviser is a program that is designed to help you select a turbocharger that meets your horsepower and engine requirements.
Boost Adviser Garrett Boost Adviser is a tool developed to perform a turbo match quickly and easily. Read More. Turbo Tech Turbocharging any engine can be a difficult process to get right the first time. System Optimization Turbo System Optimization covers the auxiliary systems and how to properly calculate, install, identify problems, as well as tips for how to correct common problems that arise from incorrect installation.
No turbo out there will provide those PR and flow numbers over such a wide spectrum of airflow. Re-calculate for a multiple-turbo setup.
If you can't find a turbo to fit, divide your airflow figures by the number of turbos you want to use. Two turbos flow twice as much air as one, and smaller turbos have a wider efficiency range relative to absolute airflow than smaller ones. So, for our example , divide 1, cfm 0. That's a spread of only cfm for the little twin-turbo setup, versus cfm for the single, big turbo setup -- a much more achievable goal for any compressor.
Richard Rowe has been writing professionally since , specializing in automotive topics. He has worked as a tractor-trailer driver and mechanic, a rigger at a fire engine factory and as a race-car driver and builder. Step 1 Assess your budget. Step 2 Determine the required airflow in cubic feet of air per minute. Step 3 Calculate your engine's non-turbo airflow in cfm. Step 4 Divide your required airflow by your engine's stock airflow to determine the required boost pressure ratio the ratio of boost pressure to atmospheric pressure, which is about Step 5 Look through a manufacturer's selection of "turbo maps.
Step 7 Repeat Steps 2 through 7, using the engine's peak torque rpm. Despite some drawbacks, twin turbos are still excellent kits.
Twin turbos are fantastic for the daily driven or mostly street-driven car. Each turbo needs the exhaust from only 4 cylinders to spool, so it spools much faster than a single kit. Smaller turbos in a twin-turbo kit can also produce similar power as a larger single turbo. It gives your vehicle less lag for a similar power gain. A turbocharger is a fuel-driven turbine aimed at air compression to increase the power and torque of your engine.
If you want a more powerful turbine, consider placing air compression and density increase together. It enables the engine to have more oxygen per burn, and the energy released is directed to the pistons, which move the compressed air.
It further leads to a greater amount of air and fuel within the engine. Thus, now you can enjoy a much speedier car and get more pleasure from driving! Cars with turbo engines are always in great demand and are now being favored by more people. Many cars have twin-turbo engines.
It has several advantages for those who like to feel the power of the vehicle. A twin-turbo engine means two turbochargers aimed at optimal work with air compression. A twin-turbo setup also provides for the reduction of the lag. It helps produce power faster using 4 cylinders, while a single turbo requires all 8 cylinders for an optimal boost. This type of engine is excellent for regular driving in a city or a normal regime. Twin-turbo takes care of smooth engine functioning. In terms of expenses, two smaller turbochargers are more efficient than one bigger one.
However, some engines require twin-turbo kits for better and more efficient operation. This is related to V-type engines. They work much better together with twin turbochargers. Of course, there are a couple of disadvantages of twin-turbo over a single one — it takes up more space, and its installation is a tad bit expensive.
