OMG...
that picture is sexy.
damn near orgasmic!
(if you ever sell one of your old compound setups, i want first chance.. i love your work.)
Sadly I think my original setup with one turbo is harder to get at than this. I think the intake on AKI's would be easier to pull off then stock 1.6. It looks OK too
Did Pasi tell how much fuel that pump will put out?
My job has unfortunately taken a lot time lately, so I have not been able to build caddy as much as I'd want.anyway, something little has been happening at least with the engine.
MJF asked about the capacity of the pump and indeed we did a few runs on a test bench. the basic capacity is 198cc and the maximumcapacity was a whopping 402cc so it seems to be a quite violent pump.It is not the purpose of this project to utilise the full potential of this pump, because it would mean close to 700hp.
the turbo policy is also starting to take shape. the idea is yet again to make low end powerwith mechanical charging and use the turbocharger for top end. I thought to try a centrifugal-type charger as the mechanical one and big turbo.

Big chargers = big power,no compromise
that turbo is massive
WOW!!
(that was where i had originally intended to mount my LP turbo also, glad im not the only one that thinks it would have been a good idea)
Beautiful work Sir. I am curious though: with the heat of the compound set-ups; did you have to consider passive cooling (think WRX hood scoop) to force cold side air over the setup and out the bottom? Or will this even generate the amount of heat to worry about?
Cheers,
Andy
How do you spool those things?
Are both those turbos external wastegate types? What about a vnt for the low pressure?
