Newbie Turbo Questions
 
What is the advantage of a ball bearing turbo to the normal ones? What type of bearings do the normal turbos have? is it fluid bearing or what. i read an article on this i still do not understand ball bearing turbos. What are hte advantages of ball bearing turbos to fluid?

What other types of bearings are used on turbos?

By utilizing a ball-bearing center cartridge, versus a conventional bronze bushing type bearing, weight and friction on the center shaft is reduced allowing for increased response

researching is fun

All TURBONETICS CERAMIC BALL-BEARING turbochargers are manufactured to the strictest aerospace standards by the most experienced technicians in the trade. Quality control is maintained throughout the precision assembly process to assure adherence to the closest tolerances in the industry. All CERAMIC BALL-BEARING turbochargers are VSR balanced at rated speeds to less than .05 G - the toughest specification in the performance turbocharger industry

bitch get off me

The NASA inspired angular contact, CERAMIC BALL-BEARING design (Patent pending) practically eliminates thrust bearing and operational surge failures. The CERAMIC BALL-BEARING system can safely handle 50 TIMES more thrust loading than conventional turbochargers , making it ideal for severe transients and extreme pressure ratio applications

ball bearing turbos will spool faster, and keep spinning with less energy. Regular turbos work fine too. If you have the money for a ball bearing, do it. If your car is going to be an all track car, get one. If not you won't really notice a difference between them. They work the same, as far as mechanics goes, but the ball bearing will make it spin "easier". Don't worry about it.

hope this helps bitch :-* :-*

and he is right, they call them ceramic ball bearing turbo.

Re:Newbie Turbo Questions
 
i thought i asked what type of bearings...like fluid bearing etc...not ------- types of turbines you dumb ass....

davcivic 06-19-2004 11:53 PM

Re:Newbie Turbo Questions
 
dumbass, there is no type of bearing or fluid. Just type of turbo.

Re:Newbie Turbo Questions
 
if you would sit and read you will realize that it say exactly word for word why a ball bearing turbo be it regular or ceramic are better then convetional turbos, thank you

If you don't want help, don't come back. We are being sincere on what works, and how it works, if you want to take the advice, do it. If not then go back to how stuff works and try to learn from them.

and notice I have never really insulted you. Except for that bitch comment, but when it's follow by a ;), it's meant as a joke. So so you learn next time it happens


bitch ;) ;)

Who me, nope, not afraid. I've been trying to help, and If you search my posts, you will see I always try to help newbies, even when their questions are that dumb

Forced Induction needs lower compression, factory motors like to stay around 8.5 to one.

N/A uses high compression, like around 10:1 on say an LT1 block.

You'll follow eventually.

And yes, the admin sees all thru his turbo crystal ball. I heard he likes to take trips down to Haiti and practices Santeria and will put a hex on us members if we aren't nice to him. So try and kiss his ass and donate to the website if you want to stick around.
