Detroit Diesels - factory blown AND turbocharged two strokes!

Re: My boosted GO_KART!!!!
 

seems like a cool idea, just poor execution.

Re: My boosted GO_KART!!!!
 

you still havent told us how well it worked if at all.
How many amps did that motor pull off the Bat.

Re: My boosted GO_KART!!!!
 

Garrett uses an electric supercharger to offset low CR "lag" on smaller displacement turbo engines, before the turbo spools. Meant for 2.0 liter displacement and smaller, for 1000-2000 rpm range useage, can increase torque by as much as 25%!

Translation: The car is making 40 ft/lbs @ 1400 rpms, now you have a whopping 50 ft/lbs with the Garrett e-blower. Your car is still a slow, puling pile of swill with no acceleration, but now you are 30% less likely to stall out because you don't know how to downshift.

nah, i didnt really notice a difference. Once i actually got going fast the ram air was probbaly forcing air in at the same speed the fan was pushing it in. Im going to do it again some time. This time it will actually be to see a difference. I should of used hard pipping. Because when you looked threw the blower and into the dryer hosing you could see tons of little holes in the light. And im sure thats where the air was mostly going instead of actually cramming it down the carb.

I looked into this for the single cylinder 135cc bikes we build.
From what I gathered. THere is a motor that can be used.
Its found in some old cars.
The only problem is it draws arround 12 AMPS. Power and our bikes use a 5 amp Bat.
