Cool video and all, I like the mechanics. But that is not a turbocharger, it's not making any boost for force induction on an engine. It's more like a vacuum powered turbine spinning some gears to make a lego engine turn. If you could really make a lego engine with a turbocharger on it, I'd be impressed!
Well for that to work, it would need to be combustion, as the reason why turbochargers are so efficient, they push and compress the air into the piston valve, when you have an electric powered lego-motor for a show engine, rather than an engine that uses combustion, the compression of the air has no effect as there is no use for the compressed air
As more than one commenter has said, this is not a turbo. Turbo is short for turbine-compressor. I would agree that this could be called a turbine as it uses a fluid (air) to drive a impeller, but a Turbo it is not
Actually, the turbos people make are not really “turbos” because turbos basically have two parts. The first part sucks in air and shoves it in the engine for more psi but the exhaust part is like a turbine with used gas (or air)
This is a big long shot, but you could make a Lego engine go so fast that it creates wind and have an exhaust type thing that connects to a sideways turbo, in a attempt to make real sound, big long shot but good idea
See, a turbo and a supercharger are alike but since we are talking about turbos you need to realize a turbo shouldnt be used as the engine itself because the turbo gives more air to the engine so it runs faster/better and it isnt an turbine engine.
A turbo charger is a turbine that is being driven by the exhaust of the engine, and compresses on its other side the intake air. What you built has absolutely NOTHING to do with a turbocharger.
that is more like a hybrid drive and if that were actually putting more air into an engine it being mechanically linked would make it a centrifugal supercharger so either way its not a turbo

It’s a good start, use silicon gel to seal ( it peels of ez after use ) I’ve made an airtight version similar to this. Don’t do it you melt a lot of stuff the parts move way to fast and melt together .
Cool, but not a turbocharger. I have made several of those vacum engines. I have also made some with functinoal cylinders, and turbo- and super chargers
nice! however this is not a turbocharger :( its more like a turbine used to make the engine start, an actual turbo needs exhaust gases to actually work and using fuel on a lego engine will melt it :(
You have the universal joints set up in the wrong orientation. Put them together so that the notch on the sides is lined up with each other, it will run smoother. You have the joins offset by 90°
No one gets how turbos work, they take the exhaust pressure of the motor and convert that into intake pressure giving more air to the throttle body making more power, this is not a turbo charged engine
Because you used an open differential as a 90* gear and put the turbine input on the one of the outputs of the differential, and nothing on the other output, while the electric motor and v6 engine are attached to the ring gear, absolutely no power from the turbine is going into the v6 engine. The electric motor alone is driving the engine. Once you locked up the other output, then you had power being transferred. Why use a differential in the first place?
Not really, a procharger is just a centrifugal supercharger, and superchargers are driven by the crank. This is more like a turbine connected to the crank.
If we think of lego vaccum engines and like real world engines turbos work by using the exshuat gas from the engine to spin a turbine that also sucks air ito it like a small vaccum that uses air and gives more air into the engine for better combustion becuz more oxygen equal bugger boom in engine so in technicality a vaccum egine from lego might be able to use a turbo but since vaccum engine dont have a exshaust they only have a intake and if u put a turbo on the intake i dont think it would do much cause the intake air is really weak and the turbo would do almost nothing but on the othee hand i have seen others make a super charger and it works but turbos seem like impossible if u think about it on vaccum engines🤓🤓js
@@Bricks.Master.Builders I don't understand why people have to be so rude. I applaud you for the obvious technical thinking skills involved in creating something that even remotely resembles an actual turbo charger. I'm a mechanic and whereas this doesn't look like the real thing. It does still behave similarly for the most part. I think it was rather clever that you were able to create the same general function and end result with something as simple as Lego. I'd be willing to bet that most of the people who felt like they needed to say "Technically this isn't a turbo charger" actually have no idea how one even works. Sorry for making this comment so long. I just wanted to say, ignore the haters. Because you achieved a functional boost system using toys. I think it's awesome! Thanks for posting,I can't wait to show this video to my son. He loves building with Lego, so I'm gonna see if we can build one together.
There is a lot of things in LEGO world depends on imagination. For example the engine that lego puts in every set. Is it a real engine? Is it even close? Maybe i should have called it a super charger to be more accurate
Fun video but not a supercharger either. Both turbo and super chargers just push air into the engine, there is no mechanical linkage between the charger and motor.
@@Bricks.Master.Builders its just a vacuum turbine that spins the engine thus you should call it a vacuum turbine. And there are many people that built turbines in the past including you.
@@Bricks.Master.Buildersbut I would really be impressed if you could build an actual turbo charger for a vacuum piston engine. I tried building it for my piston engine but I wasn't successful.

ok but thats not a turbo thats an engine
Excuse me but did you speed up the video while you had been using the “turbocharger”
It's cool, but i think it's more like an air powered hybrid drive more than a turbo
Or a throttle
@@AverageGamer2010 A throttle is exactly what I thought of too.

Any suggestions on what should i name it??
@@Bricks.Master.Builders Maybe what he described it as: Vacuum-powered turbine
if it was feeding air into a lego vaccum piston engine it would be a centrifugal supercharger

correct me if im wrong but i think that it is not the first
True and it's also not a turbo. Turbo is for forced induction more air and more fuel greatest more power but this is just a turbine
Nor is it "working"
@@cuberznlyea that’s only a vacuum engine
Yeah umm I don't think it creates boost or works off exhaust pressure
Ur right

Yes, you are right 👍🏻

The title is clickbait,This is not the first, and its not a turbo.Good idea though just maybe next time use a different title.
It’s more like a turbine engine boost, I don’t know
IT SAIF THE FIRST LEGO!
This is just a vacuum engine and is not the worlds first either.
A turbo basically is a vacuum turbine
@@AverageGamer2010 a turbo has two impellers, one spins due to exhaust and the other, which is connected with an axle, pushes air into the engine.
@@AverageGamer2010 A turbo is a turbine-powered air pump.
cool vacuum engine
Great video, Thanks for posting this cool LEGO Videos
Thank you too ☺️
You're just using vacuum cleaner to spin the engine xD it has nothing to do with turbo charginng
It's just a LEGO model 🥹
@@Bricks.Master.Builders So there are waaayyy more realistic things made of lego than this like actual pnematic engines.
@@Bricks.Master.Buildersyou did say working😂
Thus proving that ANYTHING can be created from LEGO!
This is a big long shot, but you could make a Lego engine go so fast that it creates wind and have an exhaust type thing that connects to a sideways turbo, in a attempt to make real sound, big long shot but good idea
I don't think the materials could handle the heat and friction
See, a turbo and a supercharger are alike but since we are talking about turbos you need to realize a turbo shouldnt be used as the engine itself because the turbo gives more air to the engine so it runs faster/better and it isnt an turbine engine.
I think it would be interesting if this concept could be implemented into a Lego technic car.
Yes, that’s true 👍🏻👍🏻
Without oil these parts will be dead within minutes
Yep
Yo dont give up, this thing is pretty cool. Like everyone said not a turbo, but still creative. Keep it up!
Really interesting but the turbine doesnt generate lots of torque just alot of power
I think torque is a form of power
A turbo charger is a turbine that is being driven by the exhaust of the engine, and compresses on its other side the intake air. What you built has absolutely NOTHING to do with a turbocharger.
Great job, this is the first time I've seen this in LEGO ❤

My expectations were too high.
that is more like a hybrid drive and if that were actually putting more air into an engine it being mechanically linked would make it a centrifugal supercharger so either way its not a turbo
Can you explain the free wheel mechanism. It doesn’t seem like it would work and would cause a lot of friction

I'm still confused about the engine.
Whose power does it run in air, gasoline or battery?
Electric Motor + Air
0:33 anyone else cringe a little at the misaligned U-joints or am I just a huge nerd?
i suffer looking at that.
My co worker was outside listening to this on his phone
I swore I heard a honda civic running
😅👍
What is its use if it's not even a gas powered engine? It's not getting any combustion so it won't improve anything. Maybe a hybrid drive.
A real turbo would be connected to the exhaust manifold and the tube to the radiator
No, an intercooler
@@paulalcock6735 that’s what I meant to say
I run my turbo through my power steering rack too for better turn response.
Sorry for my 2 cents, but it's not a Turbo but a compressor...

A cool air-powered APU perhaps, but not a turbocharger given an engine drives a turbocharger and not the other way around 🙂
The elecric motor is just an starter to crank the engine, not a run motor...
Could using those lego air tube things with a powered set in a similar set up act as a boost for the RC cars?

Not a turbo but still a cool turbine you should make one with the piston engine for more torque
Thank you so much 😊
Your welcome
No one gets how turbos work, they take the exhaust pressure of the motor and convert that into intake pressure giving more air to the throttle body making more power, this is not a turbo charged engine
Instead of using a shop vac Try building an electric motor driven lego built vacuum ?
You could get it spinning fast enough by using a gearbox and potentially a flywheel to keep up the momentum
Try doing a supercharger next
you should add a flywheel to it
Well i think you use the turbine as the engine and starter motor for idling so its kinda useless
Could you give me a step by step tutorial on how to create this?
Can you upload the instructions for it?
Its so cool
Thanks ❤️❤️
@@Bricks.Master.Builders np
1. its not a turbo, its a vacuum engine with some plastic engine-look shit on an axle drive
2. you dont need a starter moror, AIM the vacuum well!
Ok 👍🏻
@@Bricks.Master.Builders it is a cool build tho
I suggest using a 1-way drive axle.
So, where's the turbo again?
Not to be disrespectful but if anything thats a centrifugal supercharger
im not a genius but that’s probably a vacuum engine
I meant that no one made this setup before 👍🏻
Many others made vacuum turbine engines 👍🏻
A challenge could be to make a vw beetle engine
dont get me worng it looks cool but it is'nt a turbo its more like a tubine engine that drives the motor
Look up Lego vacuum engine, you have made a Lego Vacuum Turbine
3:18 I'm sorry but why even have a differential in the first place? just use normal gears
prolly cuz all the other methods did not work and put the power into waste
I agree
Lamborghini Engine Be like:
Its an engine with a supercharger, not a turbocharger, not the world's first either
👍🏻
I'm sure we made plenty of "turbos" as children
😅😅
V6? Cool
Because you used an open differential as a 90* gear and put the turbine input on the one of the outputs of the differential, and nothing on the other output, while the electric motor and v6 engine are attached to the ring gear, absolutely no power from the turbine is going into the v6 engine. The electric motor alone is driving the engine. Once you locked up the other output, then you had power being transferred. Why use a differential in the first place?
To keep the motor running at low speed so when I activate the turbine you can see the difference in output speed
In this situation this mechanism acts like an adder.
Same idea of adders and subtractors (they all use differentials)
i don't want to be mean but this is just a normal vacuum engine, has nothing to do with a turbo (clickbait) and is definitely not the first one

That's not a turbocharger, and the "flywheel mechanism" is a centrifugal clutch.
