I've finished my "compound boost" setup that I started a couple weeks ago...

(network of vacuum lines that makes it all possible)

...but I kinda mislead you guys a bit. It isn't a compound boost setup at all

It is sequential boost. The blower takes care of the low end grunt, and when the turbo gets spooled up the blower is bypassed and the truck becomes all turbo. I built a little device to control the boost, and it does just that. Boost levels behave just like I calculated. I will eventually take some videos of the dual boost gauges to show what sequential boost looks like

The tune still needs quite a bit of work though, so its far from perfect. Its pulling a lot of timing so there's still a lot more to see from this setup.

 

lets see some actual pics of the turbo plumbing. where does the turbo charge pipe get to the engine?

 

What a maze of vacuum lines.

I never knew u had this planned.
Got a pic of what bypasses blower when turbo comes on?
As well as your little device to control boost?

I got a gripe w/. these TVS blowers. Not sayin anything bad bout yours specifically, just a general statement. This is the 2nd pic I've seen of the fuel rail havin rust on it. Yours is near the Schrader valve. I forgot where the other person had it on theirs. I'm not callin u guys out, but Maggie coulda done a quick p/coat or anodizing on rails I'd think for what u guys paid for your units.

Can't wait to see some vids. And hear em too.
Very cool.

 

more pics more how do u get the tvs to bypass

 

If you'll look a little closer at the pic with the vacuum lines, you'll see that it has a port on the bottom of the actuator as well. So it uses the stock bypass valve, but not the stock actuator.

Those fuel rails are stock, by the way. This is a Roush kit and uses the NNBS fuel rails.

 

Videos... Videos....

Looks awesome, great work!!

 

very ******* cool.

 

those are stock fuel rails...thats prolly just dust or discoloration from spilt fuel

 

how the hell do you cool the intake charge?

 

man thats awesome!!! cant wait to see videos!!! Gotta see #s with all that work too. Bet itll be nasty.
