Well the SS2 is more responsive, while the G3 pulled a bit harder up top.

I've got few more drawings for the G2 which I will have it made and tested soon. I'm hopping the new G2 can produce around 280rwkws using less boost based on similar or better response of what it currently has.

Some trailing with GenEses prototype was conducted this afternoon. That is the biggest hair dryer I've ever had. It drained my spare battery (my old car battery) in about 3 mints. I shot the last 5 secs before the battery died out. Will do further evaluations soon.

I've had the test car tuned current FNT ATR43G3's this evening. Basically straps on, internally gated on 98 fuel. The most it made was 330rwkws on 23psi, and 320rwkws on 20psi. The runs were performed with a high pressure actuator internally gated. The 20psi run is without boost controller.

The No.s were very consistant. This turbo doesn't get hot at all. Compare to the older G3 there is small difference on paper but huge in driving ability.

Also compare to the E85 Abe result based from the same turbo. It looks like E85 have made it producing more power and better response.

Stao I would love to see what E85 does to your current setup :thumbsup: .

what rpm does the electric charger do?

Will all depend on how much load it is under, eg if you are blowing it into a 10L motor with no restriction, or a 1.5L with conservative cams, one is going to load it up much more than the other.

I am very interested to see how it goes.

Stao if this electric turbo charger works, is it feasible to adapt it to a turbo charger so you can pre spool it? Eg run a belt or gear drive to a custom bearing housing so it can be turned on and off at will? I'm not sure how you would clutch it so it doesn't pose a restriction when on boost and you want to disconnect it though.

Did some testing today. It drains lot of battery, and I'm using 0 Gauge cable that turned pretty hot. taking it to a proper electrican to have the circuit loom made before pluging in to my car.

Some footages from today:

Should be good for 5-10 second squirts then let it recharge. How will you bypass the turbine blades when it isn't in use as surely it will act as quite a large restriction, or will they free spin quite easily?

NO it doesn't spin when its not activated. So I've used low velocity wheel with a huge compressor housing. shouldn't create intake restriction on a small NA engine.

I've been testing it all afternoon, The Optima battery has no issues. Still fires and run after like 50 short runs. Would be similar to a Nos device that activates in short time pulses. This thing has no lag.

roughly 2 weeks if I don't run in to any more troubles. I've got a improved G2 design that I want to test out first. If all goes well we should be able to get close to the SS1PU's power, torque and response while not the extra coins and time making it.

How have you estimated it will make similar airflow as the G2 does?

Have you hooked it up to a flow bench to calculate how much flow it can create? Just not sure how you came to that figure.

Works every time right? :turned:

Flow bench only tells what the compressor can flow, how ever it can't predict how the whole package can perform on a certain engine. I prefer to physically test it, and after testing that many combinations I get a pretty accurate prediction of how things would turn out.

A Skyline amp is ~65amp, correct?

If that thing pulls 100amps, would beefing the generator system up to say 150amps provide enough stink to run it constantly? Or at least for much longer times than say the odd squirt for 10 seconds or so?

My issue with this (even though a good idea in theory)

Is the current draw, whacking a 300amp load on top of running fuel pumps, ECUs dash/head lights etc is going to make the car simply shut down.

In my car I can hear the fuelpump change tone ever so slightly when the brake lights come on and go back to normal 1/2 sec later, that would be 5-6 amps max, If I tried to whack 300amps on in 1 go the whole car would stop.

The other issue (if the car keeps running) is the huge voltage drop will affect the ignition and injectors and throw the tune out.

Still keen to see if it works though.

    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Comparison of the 2: Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
