Realistically I'll probably do some stuff like upgrading parts but I'll probably have to out source fabrication and specialized technical aspects. I would like to do the plan and stuff though and just go to professionals with it so they can either improve it or make what I ask.

Already decided on a well paying career but it's not anything to do with cars. It would be a passion project that I would do on the side for the sake of doing it. Paying someone else to have the headache takes the fun away... Maybe I'm cursed to just ogle at good builds and to day dream about my own.

Oh ok that makes so much sense. Thanks for clearing it up!

How could you tell??/??/???/? Yeah I got no idea what I'm talking about haha. I'll be on P's soon. Yeah I figured that would be the case. Just wanna start learning to see how stupid of an idea it is. In general, I want to know so I can mod in future. It's interesting to know. Thanks!

I have a terrible idea to twin charge a BNR34. Or an r35. So compression ratios and how they work as well as what certain measurements do for an engine (bore that sorta stuff). I will probably upgrade what ever engine it is with forged rods and pistons and some other strength upgrades.

Exactly how each part works and how they all work together to make the engine function. That's all I'd need to do a basic build. Maybe how forced induction works. I probably need to learn some of the maths behind it all as well.

I've watched a basic videos on how a petrol car engine works. It would be good to find some more in depth stuff. I plan to do a few builds in the future and I would like to know how I can get hands on instead of sending it into a shop all the time.

Here’s a follow up question, what if you add a super charger to an already turned engine like a rb25det or something. Would the systems in place (inter coolers and exhaust manifold) be a good way to lessen time and head ache? Or would it be more annoying to add a supercharger to the turbo-ed system then designing a new system entirely?

Another thing I would do if I was studying mechanical engineering Eh if I won the lotto I’d do it. Otherwise yeah just a day dream.

Yep super expensive, awesome. It would be a cool passion project if I had the money.

So it's a ginormous undertaking that will be a massive headache but will be sorta cool if pulled off right. And also expensive. I'm sure it'll be as expensive as buying the car itself. I don't think you could just do this build without upgrading other things to take the extra power. Probably lots of custom stuff as well. All this assuming the person has mechanical knowledge. I'm stupid enough to try it but smart enough to realize there's gonna be mistakes even with an experienced mechanic. I'm a young bloke on minimum wage that gets dopamine from air being moved around and got his knowledge from a Donut video on how engines work.] Thanks for the response though super informative!

Good to know, thank you!

Looked it up. It sounds so expensive lmao I'd rather not. Awwwww but I just love that sound

I know nothing about car mechanics or anything I'm just curious. My simple monkey brain wants to hear a stutututututu and weeeeeeeeeee on the same thing. Some people on other forums have said it's pointless and to just use a twin turbo setup which is definitely a thing in skylines. Could someone explain to me the benefit of having something twin charged vs twin turbo-ed?

Thanks! I'm gonna go for a high paying job so a gtr should be in the budget at some point. Is the wasteland the place for general socialization?
