Two electric supercharged unicorns in such close proximity is a rare occasion. Lol.


Nice, I like this one!

Thanks Toma. Not sure if you have had to much time to look at the logs I have sent you but it looks like the long term fuel trim is richining us up a bit.

Hello Fento! Your system is great. Could you make your turbo with adding a funnel. I think you could have big gain or use a tiny supercharger system. I've seen a video in discovery channel and the funnel effect could increase the flow of air in the intake.

I think something is getting lost in translation here. Could you post a link to what you're talking about?

Hello no it's not a joke look at this video.

Look at 33:00 to 39:00
It is said that the funnel could increase the air flow by lowering the pressure in the funnel.

Man... Hit up two local events in Portland this weekend, cars and coffee and Oregon Toyota Owners Club. So many positive responses and numerous questions. Had the opportunity to speak with a local build shop regarding the possibilities of pairing this with a WMI system or Innovate supercharger build. More to come.....

For English speakers. Pay attention to the section on inflating escape slides.

This basically uses the high velocity exhaust of a rocket through a Venturi (funnel) to create and eductor that pulls in a large volume of air from the sourrounding environment.

This really can't be adapted because basically its not some aerodynamic trick that magically increases volume of air. It's just a way of harnessing the power of the rocket to move a large volume of air.

Unless of course you plan to fit a rocket to your intake.

Fluid moving is fluid moving. It doesn't matter if the motive force behind the fluid is a rocket or a centrifugal compressor. That said, I don't think a venturi would work well with a pressure ratio. I'm interested to hear more though.

I don't mean to argue but the funnel effect is sound. Just not something that is easily applied to this turbine application. It is however realistic that a abs tube with the right size aluminum funnel insert after the turbo would draw the additional air. But it's hard to calculate how much. I'm not sure the formula. I think it would just make noise and add a minimal improvement at 5psi
