My new Turbo charger :)

A picture says more than 1000 words


seems to be the biggest ever built turbo, but they where stupid enough to forget to bulid a version with a K26 hotside. Their loss cause I would have bought one if it had been bolt on.

The facts:
Up to 25000 KW that's somewhere around 34000 hp
and an enormous amount of torque.
Might be a bit laggy tho

On the case there is a logo of ABB - the producer of electric equipment. WTF?

@ Button
Don't know, found it on the web. it's a 2 stroke diesel engine turbo of the size of a Golf. It's really huge and it wasn't build for cars.
It is build by ABB and as you can see they build Turbos too.
cheers

I wouldn't stand in the same room as that thing, imagine the volume of air that must suck in!

Blades are a work of art mind you, wouldn't mind that on my living room wall..

look at the engine around 4:45 makes those turbos look tiny again

[ur-s4315]

The one at 4:45 is a 2-stroke engine.

So does anyone have a 200 inch custom exhaust to go on the end of this bad-boy? Can you imagine trying to do a boost test on this?
