  • Turbocharging -- is it possible in 2T bikes??

    have read abt turbocharging....but don't have a clear idea about the possibilities on inplementing the same.. any of u tried it?

    turbo chargers use the engine exhaust to move the turbo blades which in turn pump air into the cylinder. fuel injectors inject fuel and air is injected from the turbocharger which is at high pressure which results in higher BHP from the vehicle!!

      turbochargin works on both 2st and 4st bikes. so you just have to find a good sized turbo for you application. Never heard of anyone implementing it on indian bikes. guys whatcha say?

          Don't think indian bikes have big enough engines to generate the exhaust pressure required to operate a turbocharger

              Turbocharging is not so effective on a two-stroke. U cannot have chambers when u use a turbo. A good set of chambers are far more effective than any turbo.

              Supercharging will work though. However, these are rather expensive options. A turbocharger or a supercharger is very expensive and is a moving part requiring maintenance.

              A supercharged two-stroke on chambers will be kick-ass. Might well need some exotic materials to prevent the engine tearing itself to bits.

                can anyone please give some links on how to build superchargers?

                I'll try it on my Yezdi Roadking. Don't care if it blows up in the process. As it it, it's worth Rs.8000

                  There is little public knowledge on this in India. If you are serious, search on the foreign sites, look for a cheap, small turbo off ebay or something. Should be an interesting project.

                    using engine power to compress input-air (which further will increase the fuel intake and will make more horses) is called as supercharging. the mechanism is very easy but the technical measurements sucks(search in web-sites to have measurements and specifications).

                      what do you think about supercharging my bike?

                      I opened up a hair dryer to see the fan...

                      Just one thing...how can I get al least 4 psi of pressure from the supercharger (home made of course!)

                        Hi. No use turbocharging the single cylender. the intake is in pulses; only when intake valve opens in 4 stroke and that is roughly only for 1/4 the duration of the whole cycle. In case of two stroke, fresh charge of air goes to crankcase and not directly to combustion chamber. Even on an RD, exaust gasses would get messed up. etc..etc..
                        Supercharging is done by the engine rotation. which means rpm of supercharger increases with increase of engine speed. you can use motorised pressurisation only if you can vary its speed, or find some way to get around it. I may be wrong but there is no single cylender engine with super or turbocharging.

                            There are few single cylinder engines using mechanical forced induction. I read about a person who turbocharged a single cyl atv.
                            There is a website about single cylinder dragbikes.
                            Hey you are wrong to some extent about the rpm synchronisation part. In a turbo bike the compressor wheel is spinning at rpms uncapable of making boost WHEN at low throttle opening, regardless of engine rpm. Its when you go close to full throttle the turbine really spools up in excess of 100000rpm(on motorcycles) in turn driving the compressor.
                            In electric sc you need to keep the compressor spinning at certain rpm to avoid flow restriction. But to make boost, i guess a switch which would increase compressor rpm to boost levels would create a similar effect as a turbo.

                              Well! they can be fit onto 2 stroke engines as well but dont think they'll be of much of use on small sized engines in India.
                              Take care!
