Spot the GT1752 compressor wheel
Turbo Mini Forums

I know I some people have seen pics of this before, but I thought I would place these two impellors together just for comparison

COLIN , IS IT MY IMAGINATION or is there a bit of contemplation of turbo charging going on with your car now you have to get the pistons out ??

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

I recognise that compressor wheel :)

In the 13's at last!.. Just

I dont know what you are talking about Robert

I reckon you could put a couple of Carls rims on the bigger one!

That is a £10,000 impellor and is made to order with a 6 week delivery time. Its from a centrifugal water chiller. The compressor is basicaly just a huge electric supercharger, and that baby is only a small one.

To give you an idea of the physical duty of these machines, the largest packaged machine is capable of 6400kw cooling capacity full load, and with an invertor driven motor, it can reduce down to 800kw cooling capacity, where your average air conditioning units that you may see in shops and offices are roughly 3-5Kw each. They use Refirgerant 134a, same as in car Air con, but instead of 0.9kg that is in your car, they use up to 1700kg.

Canary Wharf in London has the largest collection of these packaged centrifugal chillers in Europe, and many of the buildings, such as DS7, the central building that everyone knows, have six of these 6400Kw machines. Thats where global warming begins for more than one reason

Dont be silly!

every one knows electric superchargers don't work!
