So in essence from what you're saying then, the exhaust side drive of the turbo is the let down here? I feel this is getting way out of control as far as testing the limits of the new L5P. I'm not gonna go out there and spend $6500 to reconfigure my truck for an aftermarket turbo. I'll keep my throttle response thank you very much. If I wanted a race motor I would rather spend that money on a bare block and heads. Once you put that Precession Turbo on there you lost me. You put a bigger turbo on there to get more power, how about that, lol. Seriously Gale? Come on you're better then that. I'll keep checking in but I'm not gonna stay subscribed to watch a race motor being built until it explodes. I can do that on a thousand different sites.

I need my truck for work towing heavy trailers, and it better do it for a looong time because it's going to be a while before I get the damn thing paid off, I don't need it taking a shit after 150,000 miles and winding up a cautionary tale like all the trash for sale on man cave classifieds because some Derp McGurk turned it up and hammered it to death trying to look cool doing brodies and rolling coal at every stoplight.

For a truck on the street I'll take drivability and reliability above all, if there is a way to get an extra hundred horses out of it and still have those conditions met then I'm all for it. I think that the stock turbo is going to be extremely hard to beat without the inevitable compromise being made between power and drivability/reliability. GM/Isuzu really did a lot of work to get this far. In other words, power, reliability, drivability. Pick two.

I certainly appreciate the monumental task of research, engineering and sheer knowledge that went into this video series but at the end of the day in my opinion its a bit like the difference between a swiss army knife and a scalpel. I think in my truck I would rather have the VG turbo which does lots of things well rather than a larger non-VG turbo which only really does one thing well and that is to compress as much air as possible for max output. At the end of the day, max output will break things.
@wyattwunderlin4445

It sounds like GM did their homework on the variable geometry turbo. Good driviability, decent power at 2,800 RPM, and decent fuel economy. It is a perfect sized turbo for a STOCK application. However, there is not much "head room" from modification over stock power, except for maybe some improvement on the air inlet. If pushed passed the stock settings, the turbo becomes very inefficient, very quickly, as demonstrated here. So overall, GM designed a turbo that delivers its full potential in a stock application. No performance was left on the table. Also to note, Gale is correct about placing a larger turbo on an otherwise stock engine. It wouldn't create any more power than stock, as limited by the single MAF Sensor. it would actually decrease drivability, as you would have introduced unneeded turbo lag. The best concept is to look at your situation and power needs, then build the engine to your desired performance level. Everything needs to work in a coherent, complementary environment to reach the goals and expectations. If one item, such as an oversized turbo, is out of spec for the rest of the engine, the entire system produces sub-par results overall. Those last two sentences can be applied to multiple facets of life. If the "intercooler" at work cannot keep up with the workload, the entire team has to work harder to product the same level of "Horsepower" (AKA Output). If you overtax your marriage, such as the overtaxing of the stock Turbo Charger, you will see degradation of performance throughout the entire system. You cannot neglect one aspect of the system and expect max output.

How much turbo whistle do you want or are you willing to tolerate? Question 1 will depict how much bigger you should go with the turbo wheels. If you tow heavy you shouldn't go too much bigger since bigger wheels want more exhaust flow (higher rpm) to be in their happy operating range and not surge.

If anything, I would want to add an electric boost assist to eliminate the lag, and keep the large turbo, or even go bigger. Efficiency is free money plain and simple as long as the larger turbo isn't stupidly expensive then it will pay for itself over the life of the engine. Add supercritical steam injection into the cylinders at TDC and gain even more efficiency and eliminate NxO's along with all of that EGR garbage.

Like people who do 'tune ups' with open intakes and who then put badly designed, undersize and/or restrictive filters made with filter element materials with poor flow and/or filtration characteristics*! IIRC, the worst system (mini-filters on velocity stacks) caused almost 150hp loss, on a otherwise very healthy engine, compared to open stacks! HKS used to have a foam 'mushroom' design that was very popular, even though it managed to fail on all 4 points...

Said differently seeking to strike a balance between efficiencies, performance, and longevity. The combination of after market parts, tuning, testing, and real world testing - should produce an engine spec that strikes a balance amongst these seemingly competitive variables. I believe that’s what diesel owners want to see, and then force the big three into producing trucks that come close to meeting these parameters.

Oh that’s an idea let’s write a book! I’m an excellent writer, I’ll walk around and pick your brain and let you tell me every story you can think of and we’ll get a biography of sorts, and the challenge we will give ourselves is not to say the word boost/boost gauge once. Actually that’s too easy, let’s include “density”. :P I will sign whatever contract you thinks fair, I don’t expect any payment until I’ve produced something worth paying for.

Always knew he's a GM lover. Besides banks don't last that long. Had 2 ram air for old truck and mustang. Fucking sand came in and destroyed my engine. It was first banks from 90s. He even claimed banks went all the way back in 70s. Which has no proof. If I were you ladies and gentlemens I'd stay away.

Mr. Banks, sir, you need to give one of these Data Monsters to Westech performance for shows like Engine Masters and Richard Holdner's tests. Once guys get used to being able to see all this date when we get sloppy and try to blow stuff up. We're all going to buy one and not going to want to look back. Also Matt Happle has a channel called Sloppy Mechanics where young guys go who are turbocharging junkyard LS/Vortec engines. Even though "Slops" as we call ourselves take pride in making junk work for us and spending as little as possible. If we had mysteries we are battling against better undstood with this data it would really push the hobby in a massive way.

I know Gale does not like smoke, but with the laggier turbo, surely the right tuned fuel pump (Injector) or tune on a CRD ECU you could easily run the engine fat down low to bring the turbo on faster here? I did this on my TD42 here in Australia with the right pump curve and the difference was massive. I had the benefits here Gale was talking about, but I had nearly the exact same response as the stock turbo. As the revs got on and it came on boost, there is no black smoke at all, real nice a clean from 1800rpm and on, but off clutch at 800rpm it used to bellow out a bit of soot. I got this pump of mine built from a guy who is pretty darn good at doing this and I can't argue the point, it worked very well indeed. I know Gales mantra about smokeless diesels, but I do disagree with this to a certain degree, there is lost performance in the lag scenario that can be eliminated by running it rich down low in the lag RMP zone. My EGT's were magic all of the time at 300hp, even on the beach and sand.

Gale, the bigger turbo is unsurprisingly more efficient at higher RPM's and higher loads, but what about low loads and low engine speeds? Wouldn't a big turbo that is barely spooling up almost act as more of a hinderance? And if so, roughly what engine speed/load would be the cross-over?

A lot of this data means nothing for your L5P in your pickup truck. The Duramax on the dyno doesn't have an EGR, DPF or inject cat piss into the exhaust. Must be nice.

@Banks Power To reduce turbo lag would a system with 2 turbos be useful. Say, one being 1/3 the inlet size of the precision turbo , and the other being 2/3 the inlet size. My thinking goes like this, the smaller turbo can spool quicker due to the reduced turbine size. So when you hit the accelerator the smaller turbo reacts quickly giving the larger one time to get up to speed, when it does they would work in unison. If it was necessary there could be a valve system before the turbos, alternating the air flow between one or the other or any ratio in between. Sort of acting like a deconstructed vgt but much more modifiable.

Another intriguing video. All that data logging could be overload unless you have the nouce to understand what the interplays mean. When there was nothing much in the cold side, the hot side was the epiphany, basically less back pressure which = less temp, wasted energy and the turbine is not working as hard which would help with reliability/durability... and of course a lot more headroom for more performance. As for the lag, loosening the torque convertor would be an all round negative for fuel consumption?. What about some sort of anti lag such as a shot of compressed air onto the turbine similar to a shot of nitrous. There was a a drag racer running a Buick engine who used to shoot Nitrous into the periphery of the turbine housing to spool it up and apparently it used to hit almost too hard off the line.Dual effect of turbine impingement plus the boost in exhaust volume when it went through the engine. Koennigsegg do a similar thing with their cars I believe using a carbon fibre storage tank. I also drove a propane supplemented heavy duty truck which had a much better response. Two fuel systems of course but a good way of accelerating without the hated hated rolling coal. Just for giggles maybe a side by side comparo of a VGV turbo vs normal would be interesting for response and restriction.

Would like to know if your deringer kit is compatible to my country ford ranger T6 ....which is a 2 liter biturbo. If any what is the power & benefits ....,😁

Just saw this whole video wealth of information true legend. But in all the statistics all of the data the logging one thing is missing fuel temp Must be factored in the data cooling the fuel at the injection. By 10° will make a big difference. Run the fuel through a transmission cooler with a fan after positive pressure pump....aka...fass pump. Lowering the temperature of the fuel would like to see same data but with the lower temperature fuel......🤔

Koenigsegg needs this kind of information so he can make the most kf the Freevalve engine...I am absolutely blown away by what you're doing Mr. Banks. I would give my eye teeth just to be able to work for you for free and be a part of this revolutionary technology.

What would happen if you had an adjustable turbo bypass for the stock turbo. This way you would reduce back pressure on the intake flow to the cylinder but kept the proper pressure to the turbo through the acceleration range? Does this make sense?

Could you make the exhaust side a little smaller say 70mm happy between the stock and the 75 mm that would spin the turbo up faster and give more more rpms to the turbo witch would I turn spin the intake side up so you would get more volume at lower rpms?
