Compounding Godzilla

[SkylineUSA]

Awesome site and concept!!!

Hi Alex! My name is Tony, I am a retired Comms maintenance chief, 24 year USAF. My degree is in electronics, so what you are doing is extremely interesting to me. I work now as the senior Radar tech for Buffalo, National Weather Service.

My project will be a compound set up for an R32 GTR. I have an EFR8474 that needs a little help with early boost, after watching most of your videos it got me thinking about how I can use some of your ideas and R&D to get me to where I want to be. Huge thank you for all the work and time you have put into this!

My ides is to use smaller electric turbo up to 8-10psi, then bypassing the electronic turbo with an electronic TB. So, the attachment does not truly convey how I want to do this.

This is just the planning stages for me. But, now that you have built this forum, I have a place to go.

Once again THANK YOU!!!!!

That is Awesome Tony. I grew up in Orchard Park; but was born in Buffalo and lived in Buffalo until I was 3. Small world! That sounds like an interesting plan. Did you see this post: https://www.electrifiedboost.com/threads/audi-sq7-4-0-tdi-electric-supercharger.10/

You could maybe use a couple of these in parallel until your big turbo spools up. Just thinking out loud...

Thanks Alex,

Small world indeed. Love Buffalo, and I grew up in Phoenix.

Looks like I am going down the Audi rabbit hole.

That is perfect for my application. 1 is all I need. Thanks Alex!!!!

We need to figure out how to power those. They would probably work with a standard ESC, but I haven't looked at them from a retrofit perspective at all.

Probably going with this. As long as it does not say Lucas wiring. I should be good to go.

Lol. Lucas, also known as, "The Prince of Darkness..."

I always assumed those Alien ESCs are the same as the Flier ones. Do you know what programming software they use?

 

[SkylineUSA]

I will have to look into that.

very keen to see how your project works out Alex @SkylineUSA . If you ever need parts just give me a shout! and i do agree with @AlexLTDLX that it might be better to use the Echarger to spool up a big turbo. i actually thought of getting an electric valve/door done to switch from e-charger to regular turbo...
