In this video I explain how to choose the correct turbo size for your car! All the formulas and calculations are in the video. Let me know if you like this super technical stuff.
Enjoy...
your channel is so underrated, you dont only explain turbochargers in detail but display graphics to better understand them in detail i havent seen anywhere else on youtube, i really wish you the best man and thank you
Thank you so much! This is super motivating 🙏
For real I just got into cars and this channel really open my eyes to the world.
@@duynguyen4164 👍I'm learning stuff alot easier from him also he's legit
Yo I'm an auto wrecker, sell 3-10 powertrain a day it is nice. You explain well, hats off to you, Im glad your teaching it all the best

By far one of the most informative turbo videos I've seen. I'm looking to upgrade my 2004 Honda Civic with a custom turbo setup, and I learned more in these 13 minutes than all of the hours and hours I've spent scouring the internet for information.
Same
Likewise
I’m preparing for automotive trade school things and at the same time learning how to choose a turbo for a future project I’m planning out for a 91 crx or ef sedan
I'm in the same boat. I'm trying to figure out how viable turbocharging my 2005 Civic LX is lol
Good luck brother!! I have a 99 turbocharged SI and it rips, I bet yours is gonna be kickass 💪💪
I just want to share my personal lesson learned from sizing a turbo using this exact method - which resulted in lazy/laggy setup for street driving. I learned that you don’t need peak compressor efficiency at max RPM. It’s actually okay to be tapering off to the choke point at max RPM in a street application, which is what most factory turbocharged cars do. It is better to optimize peak compressor efficiency for the RPM range where you want to make power. With that in mind I would do the calculation at various engine RPM levels and compare the plot - looking for max efficiency at, for example, 5k RPM. It’s a good sanity check to plot the max RPM too, but not the number I’d care the most about.
This is great, and 100% true.
I tell people that the basic answer to the right size turbo is the smallest turbo that meant you power needs. Be realistic about your engine's power. Beyond that it start getting mathy.
@@177SCmaro people like to go oversize on turbo, if you live in a area were you don't have a lot of big and long straights is just dumb to have a turbo too big
I wanted to upgrade my turbo's on my Mitsubishi GTO , 3L V6 twin turbo AWD .

Never understood compressor maps from any other YT explanation. You are a gifted teacher. Went through the math with you (using my numbers) and can't thank you enough. Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
I'm confused. When I run the numbers for manifold pressure I get a decimal not 34.5 psi I get 0.17270
Such an underrated channel, here's to 10k by the end of the year!
10k by the end of the year would be great! 😅 Thank you for the support
This content is gold. High quality information, no crap, all functional and delivered in a clear and concise manner. Big +1 to this.
I just found you recently and I know that I’m late to the party, but your videos are amazing. Short and straight to the point. I’m interested in trying to turbo charge my 2011 Lancer ES as my first project car.
I just subscribed. I’ve spent about 20 hours trying to find a video with this much detail and information. I’m building a 1.8t vw for 500 hp and trying to make a fun streetable car. Thank you so much for this video and can’t wait to see more!!
You're an absolute LEGEND for posting this type of information and making it so easy to understand. My brothers and I recently picked up a Z32 twin turbo and we plan on converting to single turbo for power numbers around 550-600whp. Now I can figure out exactly what turbo would be best for our goals with this car. Thanks bro :') Keep up the good content!
An underrated informative channel if i may say so myself . . . I learned something new about turbochargers . . . Keep it up, and I'll keep watching for sure . . .
Been on KZhead on and off all day. So far best explanation of turbo sizing
I love the way you put stuff into detail , I was studying how to choose the right turbo to make my rb25 hit 350hp to 400hp
Thanks this was really helpful for understanding turbos and how to choose one, im gonna try to turbo a nissan 1996 pick up with a KA24E the Brother of the KA24DE
Me too except it’s a 92
I’m trying to turbocharge my 02 rsx type s and your video has made it more clear for me to choose a turbo, I also want to learn how to tune as a dream job! Thanks so much for these well informed videos 🙏💯
Brooooo i have an 05 type s that i wanna turbo but i also wanna get bags with some white rpf1s with like my same blue factory color or midnight purple wrap or something idk
I just want to say your channel has seriously helped my knowledge of vehicles!!! Honestly dude you are my favorite content creator and I can confidently say you might be the best out there!
MZ, I just stumbled upon your channel by chance. Oh my… you are one of the best thing out there on KZhead for the car enthusiast community. 🙌🏾
Love the video, the equations make this much easier. I’m turbocharging a 2003 Lexus IS300 with the 2JZGE VVT-i engine. Sitting in front of a W55 5 speed for now, eventually swapping for a 6 speed CD009. It’ll be a street/drift build!
I hope your not one of them people That block the intersection of the streets that the News Media talks about and gets them confused with Drag racing.....there's no reason for anyone to block off the whole intersection to do Donuts fined a Empty parking lot to do that stuff....besides it's safer to do in a Empty parking lot.
I'm trying to get around 650 wheel horsepower from my 2jz gte vvti, so I am looking for the correct turbocharger for my setup. It is going into my Volvo 940 which of all the cars is the one I love (driving) the most. 😁 Thanks for this video I will soon sit down and calculate if the turbo that I was gonna buy is the right thing for me. Cheers from The Netherlands!
sounds like something like a G30-900 1.06A/R or divided 1.06A/R. As long as ur on some form of meth or Ethonal. or a g35-900 would get it done.
It's just so easy to listen to you, theirs no BS, it's just stuff I need to learn. Thanks man. I'll be watching your videos from now on for my studies!
Best car science channel period!!!
Great informative vid! I think I've watched tons it turbo related vids now and definitely learned a whole lot in this vid about actually selecting the right type. Despite watching so many vids on this topic, I still have a hard time understanding how to set up the different gauges with the wiring, where to tap into what etc. Hoping you go into as much detail as you did with this vid when you get to that part of the build!
Appreciate your content - exceptionally made and thank you very much for your efforts!!! Would love to see more! FYI: CALCULATION ADJUSTMENT: Die Volumetric Efficiency rate of your given values 95% should be added at respective 0.95 (not 95) --> or you have to calculate the result again with *100 which makes it more bulky.
My man, you are a life saver. I’ve redone this equation and checked at least 50 times and got a pressure ratio of .4 and was 🤏🏻 this close to going insane 😂
I really do appreciate this video. While I may never build a turbo engine, I had often wondered what went into picking specifications.
F 150 5.0 stock. 85 mm jet proformance throttle body. Pulling a 23 foot trailer. West coast to East coast. Up hills and mountians. What a great channel U have . Thank You.
WOW. Thank you so much MZ!! I just learned something ill never forget, took mad notes as always, damn dude, cant thank you enough I'm doing R&D on my LF 2.0 Sonata to build it :)
Glad you found it useful!! 😁
This was actually very helpful in finding out how big of a turbo I would need in some cars and some physics on how to get certain horsepower. You definitely need more recognition
Just saw this channel yesterday and I am definitely having fun here.... Keep doing it man....
Just ran across this video. Thank you. I am now enlightened (and picking a turbo for my car)
And thank you so much for the effort to explain all of this I haven’t really found any KZheadr that takes the time to break it down like that for those of us that know cars but don’t know in depth numbers like that
Just showed up in my feed. Saw the video, instant sub. Great and simple video of a topic often left behind. Greetings all the way from Argentina!
Dude, anything that educates a true power enthusiast truly enjoyed your condensed video. The only thing I regret is that it ended! I'm subscribing, keep up the great work!
This, and the video before this one, was an awesome video! I’ve been wanting to turbo my 05 Mustang GT, and this helped me a lot with where I need to start!
This content is 24k gold....bravo dude....🙏
Just wanted to say thank you for the clear explanation. Helped immensely.
love from south africa this is the best channel on automotive
Watched this vid like 3 times over and over and learned a ton thanks man
I genuinely am glad you made this I’m trying to turbo an 01 3.6 v6 mustang it’s a 5spd manual hard top bright red can’t wait to have it built I’ve got graphs drawn out and a turbo picked out already for it thanks to this vid keep the good content coming please
Best explanation of how to size a turbo I've heard or read ever. I've seen several other KZheadrs try to explain it and not get it this well executed. Maximum Boost's publisher should ask you to write the next book for them.
came across this while looking to turbo my m50 e34, this video is a huge help in deciding what turbo kit i should choose and what turbo i should get as well.
Been wanting to turbocharge my 04 grand am with a 2.2. your channel has been a god send

This is an awesome video. I understand turbos so much better. Having the formulas to find the correct turbo is awesome.

You totally helped me understand what I need for a turbo ...you are awesome
I love this video! I am working on finding a larger turbo for my 2018 WRX with the 2.0 FA20F engine, but one that has the best balance possible between fast spool and power up to at least 8k. After watching your video, I FINALLY have a grasp on how to make some sense of compressor maps and use them as a guide to select my turbo!
You just thought me how to calculate and figure out the pressure ratio and mass airflow for my engine and how to use the compressor map to choose the correct turbo for my power goals, forever grateful, thank you!! 🙏
I just wanted to leave here an appreciation message for all the work you do. You make the automotive space understandable for everyone. I deeply appreciate the way you explain things, using drawings and graphics to make sure the viewer knows what you are talking about, also you are able to make those math related videos entertaining. I wish you well and keep doing your best:)
I feel I can go into a project confidently and will be accurate on it. Enough knowledge here, in detail,very short and straight to the point
Awesome explanation. I'm an engineer and followed this every step of the way. Very nice.
This has got to be one of the best videos I’ve ever watched. It’s detailed and entertaining at the same time. I’m trying to turbocharge a 2012 Toyota Venza, yes I know, mid-life crisis.
Hands down the best automotive channel I ever found wtf how does it only has 23k SUBS, it's more informative than donut media.

Actually reached boost enlightenment watching this. Awesome video
Haven't seen a better video about slapping turbo in a car. Wonderful information quality. I'm working on Citroen Berlingo B9, making it as nice and fast as a work van can get so turbo is on the way.🛠️

Your video was great. It's informative and entertaining as well. Keep up the great work.
How do you only have 32k subs!? The KZhead algo really needs to ‘turbo charge’ this channel…see what I did there😅 You are a gifted teacher, my friend. There world needs more of you! 🙏🏾
stayed till the end, extremely informative! Thank you! Turbo charging a BMW z3 with a 6cyl 2.5L. currently making 350 to the wheels with a gt35 but searching for a little faster spool! Thanks again!
This was an awesome explanation. You did a really a good job explaining the why.
Wow, this is very informative and cool video! I will be watching this a few more times to help me find what turbo works best for my autocross Supra (7M powered). Thank you for providing this excellent video!
New to your channel, love it, love your delivery. I may have to watch it a few more times however, with extensive use use of the pause button. ✊🏼
Thank you for this video! Not sure where I’d find these values as in the constants and formulas that you mentioned! Amazing I am aiming for 300 horsepower so thank you!
Your channel is amazing. I’m trying to turbo a 2020 Elantra 2.0L
Finally! I have always wanted to know this 😭 thank you for the video.
Older video but always relevant- walked away from this video, cheers brother 🍻🤘
Love how u break down the info I'm would like to turbocharged my 2012 Infiniti FX50s
Since you made such a great video, I feel obligated to answer your question. I've recently learned that a Mitsubishi turbo will take my Rotax 912 UL from 59 KW to 87 KW at 5800 rpm with 6 pounds of boost. There are kits available, but they don't say which model of turbo is used. Now I have the tools (maths) to figure out which model I need. A big thank you for breaking these numbers down barney style.
Im tyring to turbo my 09 civic si. Got everything I need from this video
You did a phenomenal job on the video by the way.... I think if most parents saw their kids making videos with this level of technical information they would stop trying to force them to do other types of jobs that they don't like.
looking into a custom turbo setup for a 2013 dodge dart 2.4l mt this video helps alot now i look for a suitable turbo
If this was school you’d be the cool teacher because you’re so easy to learn from. Just subbed 💯
I love the way you explain things, great job! I'm gonna turbo charge my MB E230 it has a lot of potential. Aiming for first step at 300 HP, then will go up from there.
Definitely not boring! Very insightful! I am upgrading my built SR20DET so this videobwas perfect for me!
Great content man definitely helped me out finding the right turbo for my built 1.9L miata
Watched quite a few videos on turbo compressor maps. Yours is without a doubt the best one. Thank you. And to answer your question - I am trying to pick the right turbo for my OM606 that will go into my Nissan Patrol Y61.
Crazy useful. Thank you. Setting up a 331ci notch Fox. Considering a turbo build.
I just got a 95 Nissan d21 hardbody from a dude who used it to drift. Decided I wanted build it up a bit and get a turbo for it. This vid honestly helped me a ton. I’ve seen a few other turbo vids but all the info just kinda flew over my head. This vid helped me to put everything together. Thanks for the info man, hope the channel blows up!
I hope your not one of them people That blocks off the whole intersection just so you can do some donuts.....find a Empty parking lot to do that....the people that drift and do donuts in the intersection make it look bad on us street Drag racers because the News Media gets Drifting confused with Drag racing because the News Medias doesn't know the difference.....Not saying your the one that's doing it but please for the love of God spread the word and tell everyone to find a Empty parking lot to do your donuts at......peace ✌ and love to all motor sports 🏁🏁
This is the single best turbo video I've came across on youtube. 10/10. I'm not a mechanic, but I am aiming for a 500hp+ 1jzgte build. This is going straight in the favourites. Thank you
what is the 1jzgte in?
i dont even have a car but when i get my hands on one, i will watch this video again to get some help and calculate correctly. For now, im happy to understand better how choose the perfect turbo for my car, thank you so much
