What size turbine is a K04 turbo?
K04 Turbocharger Turbine Shaft & Wheel 50. On the turbine side, the OEM K04 turbo uses a 50.Starting with Precision Turbo, their models are named after the [compressor] inducer size and [turbine] exducer size,” explains Bjonnes. So a Precision ‘6466’ will have a 64mm compressor inducer diameter, and a 66mm turbine exducer diameter.Wheel Sizing Ruling will occasionally limit the size of compressor exducers as opposed to inducers, but for the most part, hearing a turbocharger referred to by a millimeter rating is significant only of its compressor inducer diameter.The Precision 6466 Gen2 turbocharger features an advanced compressor wheel design with an inducer of 64. This compressor wheel design delivers maximum airflow, high boost pressure, and improved engine performance.
At what RPM does a turbo kick in?
When a turbocharger “kicks in” is based on exhaust pressure, so RPM’s (Revolutions Per Minute) are a better indicator of when your turbo is activated. You could be driving 60mph at 1800RPM and the turbo might not be working, but at 20mph your turbo would kick in if you are hard accelerating once you pass 2200rpm. The Basics of Turbo Activation Most modern turbocharged engines begin spooling up between 1,500-2,000 RPM under load. However, you typically won’t feel the full effect until around 2,500-3,000 RPM, when there’s enough exhaust flow to fully spool the turbocharger.If you install a turbo that is too big for your intended usage, you have a similar problem, but at the opposite end of the RPM range. The turbo spool-up time will be agonizingly slow since there isn’t enough exhaust energy to move the larger turbine and compressor wheels.
Can a turbo add 100 hp?
In certain sports cars with sub-2. Yes, in most cases it will give you more power but what are you doing? If you take a standard turbocharger and increase its boost pressure output you are doing two things that are or can be detrimental to the turbo and/or engine. Firstly, you are making the turbo work harder/spin faster to make that extra pressure.We have provided the K04-023 turbocharger with a upgrade, so you can drive with our turbocharger up to 330 HP. So that this also holds at higher loads, the turbo is equipped with a reinforced support. Original 023 turbochargers can be loaded up to a maximum of 260 HP, after that the wear is increased significantly.The pressure is referred to as boost and expressed in pounds per square inch (PSI). A turbocharger may be able to move enough air than the engine can use even at low pressures thereby causing an instant boost that impacts power. The greater the turbo boost pressure, the greater the engine power.A turbocharger works with the exhaust system and can potentially give you gains of 70-150 horsepower. A supercharger is connected directly to the engine intake and could provide an extra 50-100 horsepower.Turbochargers produce more power with every stroke of your engine’s pistons, and an upgraded turbo will produce more power within the same engine, making it an effective performance upgrade. Turbochargers also increase torque, particularly at low revs, as well as reduce emissions.
