turbo charged blaster...

[4cfed]

been thinking about this alot lately.... what ya guys think??.... got most of it worked out in my head just having issues figuring out a exhaust that will work..

need to wire in a battery, with rewond stater and rectifyer like phragle's set up for hid lights..

would need to 12 volt source for the oil pump..

small electric pump that will handle the oil feed for the turbo

small oil/ transmission cooler for a car as a way to cool the oil for the turbo

so basicly the turbo would have its own oil system seperate from the motor

thinkin a draw threw would work best.. carb before turbo, like the mid 80s turbo dodges ran...carb would be a big aftermarket 34 or bigger... big jets to supply enough fuel...


here is what im running into problems figuring out... reeds.. will they shatter under the air pressure??? and exhaust set up??? expansion chamber feeding turbo right before silencer?..

what about the case will it handle the pressure?? or will it blow the gas gaskets apart? thinkin 2-4 psi of boost.. basicly just to say hey.. i built a turbo blaster and can ride it

anything im missing here?? or am i asking for catistrophic failure??

Only problem I see is that a blaster really isnt producing that much back pressure. All a turbo is doing it taking the exhaust gases and pushing them out really really fast.... Where would you mount it? I would assume that it would have to be before the expansion chamber. Not really too sure though...

ditto on what fabb said. Mounting all the cooling, pump etc isnt going to be the hard part. Getting the pressure and mounting the turbo in the right spot will be tough.

My 2 stroke knowledge is limited (hence a 4 stroker) but i would think with some good calculations on location and it may not be to hard to fab up and have working.

was thinking run a right side pipe.. something with good flow.. maybe like a shearer for good flow.. run a small turbo from a jet ski or snow mobile..... now that i think of it cant have carb before turbo.. maybe ill have to look into it.. turbo can be ported and clipped to spool fast.. so it will need less air flow to spool up, turbo dont rely on back pressure to spin it relys on exhaust flow , the exhaust flow hits the ehxaust wheel fins and spins the turbo up, in turn the compressor side compresses the air and forces it into the motor

 

[4cfed]

like i said the only part im having probs figuring out is..... will the reeds shatter from the air presure even though it will only be a few psi of boost, and will the crank case 'pop' so to say from the pressure.. basicly pushing gaskets out.. i know it can be done.. look att he old detroit deisels... two stroke turbo charged deisel semi motors

 

[4cfed]

its can be done!!!!!

 

[CC&Fabb]

also how are you going to cool that turbo???

 

[4cfed]

oil.. hence why i said pump for the oil.. and a small oil/trans cooler in line with the pump to cool the oil which cools the turbo.. alot ofthe older turbos are oil cooled only.. hell alot of turbos sold now are oil cooled only for race purposes

If this

can be turbo'ed anything can. Aren't there boosted shees, why not a blaster. If I did it I'd use a turbo off a sled.

 

[4cfed]

exactly..
my i need to do some mre research on this. figuringout reeds an dcase issues if any one did anyhting differant.... everything i have posted in this thread was all out of my head... i have alot of knowlege of turbo cars.. and im trying to put some if it towrds a quad... granted it wouldnt be super fast but it would definatly get some attention

 

[Blasterdude27]

Well you would need a turbo manifold...right? so you may need a custom pipe built.

 

[4cfed]

well sinc eone cyl.. dont really need a manofold... here is the thing..

you can see the set up on a two stroke sled.. looks like turbo is right at the 'silencer box' so putting a small turbo between expansion chamber and silncer would be a good spot..

as far as piping would go, oil lines made out of brake lines, and the piping and flanges i can make with a friend of mine.. he can bend pipes from 1 inch to 2 inch with his bender, and there is allways the cut and weld option

 

[Blasterdude27]

Go for it man!

 

[4cfed]

stil researching it...

 

[samolia]

ehhh i honestly think it would be a waste.....
by time you got done buying all the crap needed you could already have a really worked over blaster motor already....
i know there are a few people who have turboed a lt230 but then again thats a 4 stroke..

 

[4cfed]

im not really looking at it for a race motor just something to be differant.. and if i get it dont after figuring everyhting out.. think how insane a turbo'ed 250 big bor 3 mm stroker blaster would be.. id easly think. 65-75 hp is possible

i would think that you would have tranny issues trying to handle that kind of power....
put some NOS on it much cheaper and just as destructive hahaI:I

 

[FLOTEK]

it can be done and will be different ,but the power isnt going to be anything spectacular like you might be thinking

oh i know, like i said earlyer, not looking to make a chit ton of power, just looking at it from the 'hey look what i built and it works' factor

sounds like you've got your bases covered. def have to put it AFTER the expansion chamber. you need your pipe's design to be unchanged....they're tuned very precisely (at least a GOOD pipe is) to make a certain powerband.
also, you don't have any headwork do you? you would most certainly blow something if you tried to run a turbo on a 2stroke motor w/ headwork.
and yeah, the turbo would def have to run BEFORE the carb in order to maintain proper jetting.
