    Welcome back to Boost School! Today we're talking about something that is as important as boost itself, and that something is control and we will cover all the boost control setups, starting with the most basic level 1 setup and proceeding to the most complex and performance oriented level.
    LEVEL 1 BOOST CONTROL - wastegate + wastegate actuator
    The most basic setup consists of nothing but your wastegate and your wastegate actuator. This simple setup works by having a boost reference line connected to a boost source. Boost pressure is exerted onto the spring and diaphragm inside the wastegate actuator. Once boost pressure gets high enough it compresses the spring and opens the wastegate. Having quick turbo spool up with this setup is next to impossible as the spring inside the actuator is exposed to boost pressure all the time. Your wastegate will be fully opened when you hit the boost the spring is rated for, but your wastegate will actually start to open way sooner than target boost.
    LEVEL 2 BOOST CONTROL - manual boost controller
    A manual boost controller will alloy you to make boost than your spring would allow by delaying the boost going through the reference line. Inside a manual boost controller is a spring and a ball. Adjusting a knob or turning the controller itself will change the spring pressure on the ball. Lifting the ball up from it's seat will require more boost pressure than compressing the wastegate spring so your turbocharger generates more boost. Although the manual boost controller is very simple to install and increases boost pressure it doesn't do anything else. It's dumb just like the level 1 setup and references nothing other than boost. It has no idea about your throttle opening, intake air temperature etc. which can result in full boost at half throttle or a setting that needs readjustment for different weather or or altitude.
    LEVEL 3 BOOST CONTROL - 2 port boost control solenoid
    The simplest electronic setup involves a 2 port boost control solenoid. The 2 port solenoid is connected into the boost reference line with a T fitting and it bleeds boost pressure from the line between the turbo and wastegate actuator. Essentially the 2 port boost solenoid is lying to the spring in the wastegate actuator by making it "think" there's less boost being made than actually is. The great advantage between a 2 port boost solenoid and any manual boost controller is that the solenoid is connected to the ECU and the ECU can manipulate the solenoid's duty cycle based on throttle opening, air temperature, coolant temperature, etc. so you'll never get full boost at half throttle again. The downside is that with the 2 port solenoid and the t-fitting the spring still sees boost pressure all the time so the 2 port solenoid still can't prevent it from being slightly opened before it needs to be.
    LEVEL 4 BOOST CONTROL - 3 port boost control solenoid
    Unlike the 2 port solenoid which is installed with a t-fitting, the 3 port boost control solenoid is installed directly into the boost reference line and it interrupts the boost pressure going from the turbo to the wategate actuator. Because it has one more port the 3 port boost solenoid can control boost more accurately and with less duty cycle compared to a 2 port solenoid resulting in better turbo responsiveness, quicker spool up and more power, as well as more headroom to increase boost later on.
    LEVEL 5 BOOST CONTROL - 3 port boost control solenoid + external wastegate
    When hooked up to an external wastegate a three port solenoid can be used to direct boost pressure to the top port of a two port wastegate helping reinforce the spring and keeping it closed. This is a superior setup to "lying to the spring" and it results in even better turbo responsiveness and more aggressive spool up.
    LEVEL 6 BOOST CONTROL - 4 port boost control solenoid / 2 X 3 port solenoids
    The 4 port boost control solenoid can do something a 3 port cant'. It can control the top and bottom of a 2 port external wastegate at the same time. A 3 port solenoid can make twice the boost pressure of your base spring, but a 4 port solenoid can make 5-6 times that which means it's capable of generating some extreme boost. The only real downside is poor resolution. Changing a 4 port solenoid duty cycle by just 1-2% can result in 3-8 psi of boost pressure change. To correct a bumpy boost curve generated by a 4 port solenoid you can use two 3 port solenoids, but this will require a very capable ECU and some pretty complex tuning.

      You missed a style of turbo controller.
      For mechanical control of variable turbo (vnt)
      (This is my vw truck):
      m.ruclips.net/video/iD4bOiggdW4/видео.html
      m.ruclips.net/video/MtIugEqjkHk/видео.html
      Gfb (go fast bits) sells a controller.
      But there are many styles.
      As someone who pushed an old t3 turbo to the limit...
      Variable turbo is where it’s at brother.
      It’s a whole different ballgame.
      Controlling a wastegate.
      Just imagine if all that energy wasn’t wasted.

      Why two port solenoid can't be installed inline instead using T connector? Why we need three port solenoid and vent boost to atmosphere?
      And why we need mess with ait at all? We can use solenoid directly to open wastegate exactly when we need it.

      @eliasaggeli1225 Год назад

      Bro whats the difference between a supercharger and a turbo if we assume that both provide the same boost level?also why in a NA engine you feel more and more power as the revs rise while in a turbo engine you dont have a linear power delivery?

    • @kart5486
      @kart5486 Год назад

      @@eliasaggeli1225 A supercharger gets its power via a belt attached to the crank. This causes a small power loss, but the power gain from the supercharger always overcompensates for this loss. However, due to the initial power loss, there is lower fuel efficiency. A supercharger, since it is directly connected to the crank, the power that you ask for (depending on amount of throttle, as well as the type of supercharger (which make peak boost at either low revs, like your screw types, or make high power at high end of rev range, like a centrifugal supercharger)) power is immediately delivered.
      Turbos on the other hand, get their power through the exhaust gases, just after leaving the exhaust manifold. However, the air pressure + flow is a bit random and can cause inconsistencies when you ask for power that the turbo may or may not be currently making since it takes time for the turbo to spool up. Additionally, turbos can only operate over a small bandwidth of the rev range since the turbo exhaust housing can always have an ideal amount of air since it has a fixed shape. (Unless you are some rich kid and/or tech nerd who can buy/make a variable turbo which operates over an extremely large amount of the rev range). And due to this bandwidth issue, the power is increased in one part of the rev range, but not the whole rev range. But, since turbos are generally cheaper and operate off of exhaust gases, they are usually the primary choice of car consumers/enthusiasts.
      Finally, NA engines operate dependent on the air supply present, which is always consistent (unless you plummet your car 40km vertically down a mountain, where air density makes a difference). So, since the air is consistent (and the car is designed to have close to linear power delivery, which it should be), the amount of throttle that you apply will translate to some amount of power increase as intended by the engineers.
      Also, if you are still confused, just search it up on YT.

    At 13:31, the 3 port solenoid with 2 port wastegate (WG), where boost reference is to the back of WG & solenoid to the front, is also best for safety measures, in that if your solenoid fails the WG will force open. Now on more extreme racing situations, many reverse these, in getting the most boost to hold the gate closed.

    Another way of boost control is using a external wastegate, with the boost signal going to the bottom side of the spring and a 3 port boost controller solenoid with a canister of CO2 in the inlet providing pressure and the outlet to the top side of the WG. It provides a linear boost curve with easy tunning on inexpensive ECU management at the expense of filling the CO2 canister from time to time. For high boost racing aplications it works like a charm, You can carry two bottles, switch them and keep racing

    • @bmxriderforlife1234

      I wonder if I could use a bleed valve and a pressure holding canister on my super plus turbo twincharger system. Seen people do similar to help turbo lag in conjunction with the super reducing it as well, but In theory when the super needs to blow off pressure I wonder if I could use it and some other excess gas pressure to essentially make a self recharging version of the c02 set up.

    Have you heard of Turbosmart's Electronic wastegate? I kinda wished it would've came up, but it's fairly new, and quite expensive, so I get it, probably won't be a topic soon.
    It is cool though, no spring, pretty much just an electric motor on the wastegate, you do all your boost control from that, no solenoid, no spring. Probably amazing control.
    Still, quite expensive.

    Pulling my hair out! We have a total of THREE 3 Volvos in our shop this week! Of them, one is a 2003 XC90 T6. Using both Autel and VIDA, the scanners both show DTC # 6814 code. All we have done (knowingly!) is rebuild the 4T65e auto trans and re & re it with Bevel Gear assembly. Since then, while the motor ran beautifully before, now it won't spool up the turbos properly, won't stay running at startup cold, won't engage turbos with high throttle input. I am somewhat familiar with the boost control solenoid and MAF sensor readings. But even after replacing the MAF 3x with used, and BCS 2x with used, doing a leak test, etc., hasn't resolved the issue. If we purchase and install an OEM BCS and/or Boost sensor, I fear this still isn't it! Some say they is an "O" ring contraction/expansion in the turbo to exhaust manifold area might be it? CAN YOU OFFER ANY IDEAS OR BETTER COMPONETS OR UPGRADES, ie. like AEM or Holley brands? Dave

    This is a very great and informative video - however I have to call you out on something. Boost control can go down to 0psi technically, BMW uses vacuum operated wastegate actuators which are controlled by solenoids allowing stored vacuum to close them, by default these wastegates are completely open and would make 0psi of boost pressure if all of the boost control gear was disconnected or malfunctions.
    They're essentially the same as a normal wastegate actuator, however operating in reverse.

    Awesome explanation thanks very much
    Never realized the source was supposed to be tee'd to the under side of the external and the top is controlled by the 3port
    I have a gt3071r on my gtir that I can't control the boost it spikes to 25psi and falls to 20 but its also an internal gated turbo with a spring that must be 8psi

  • @LeZturbo

    I just bought cheap a second Celica Gt4, with a Greddy external wastegate. Previous owners didn’t understand connection and connected both upper and lower ports together to the intake pressure port !!!!!
    So everytime you go WOT there is no pressure regulation !!!! The engine gonna explode ? Noooo, but he said « oh I have trouble with the intercooler tubing, it’s always poping out !!!! »
    Thanks to you I now understand why !!! I have an old Profec e-01 with solenoid, I’m going to install it !!!

    What’s your take on a compound turbo? Which of these products would be beneficial and what would you use if building a compound turbo setup? The larger low pressure turbo feeding the smaller high pressure turbo on the compressor (cold) side, and the smaller high pressure feeding the larger low pressure on the turbine (hot) side. These videos are helping out a lot, so I look forward in watching other ones you’ve put on the RUclips. I appreciate ya bro, and all the best!

      I have a compound boost set up and it works great. However I'm using twin charging. Super plus a turbo. Reduces turbo lag and the turbo actually helps the efficiency of the supercharger. Another benefit is it constantly helps pull fresh cold air into the engine and provides to levels of intercooling. Off the line torque plus high revving hp. However some issues. Throttlebody placement becomes a key factor. You usually need dual blowoff valves or really good system design. There are a few ways of doing it. You also have to do the math to figure out peak boost and stages of boost.
      You also essentially need a full turbo and super set up. From what I know of compound boost turbos. Works best when doing high boost like above 30lbs of boost. For turbos maybe even 40lbs or more. Twin charger systems have a few other advantages that make it make sense and lower boost levels but I think it's still like 25lbs of boost.
      You can go super blowing through the turbo or the super pulling through the turbo. All depends how custom you go. Might have to do an engine that's a hot vee so intake on the outside exhaust in the middle. Might do either a central super with dual manifolds. Or per cylinder bank with dual intakes and 2 turbos. Flatplane engine as well, so pushing hot exhaust gasses centrally cold air with less heat soak issues snd the benefits of pressure differentials. But would likely mean a Y joint or dual turbos.
      With turbos it's more about efficiency of boosting. Modern turbos are super efficient and generally can handle reasonable levels of boost with appropriate size engines. Diesel world will have alot of helpful info. If you're gonna do compound boost I'd go roots maybe even twin scroll super and throw a turbo in with it. Roots is easiest. Also means you don't need as high end gear. Basic roots and turbo kit like stage 1s together can be like a stage 3 set up done properly. But way more tuned.

    Excellent video, I love the explanation however you forgot one other trick people use, that's a co2 bottle to control a 7psi spring and achieve 70psi of boost if required. Although only really used in drag cars but still another trick to run low boost off the line and feed it high boost down the strip. Either way I love your videos, svaka cast, samo napred!

    Wow, you got it ALL down and you are great at getting it out and across to some of us less educated. QUESTION: Why does my (2008 Peugeot 308 petrol) car's turbo gauge read a negative number all the time while driving? I'm measuring the outcome through an App on my cell phone.

  • @sophiamarchildon3998
    @sophiamarchildon3998 3 года назад +4

    Why not just have an electro-mechanical (solenoid or similar) actuator to control the wastegate directly? You could even add a sensor to the wastage outflow to have a negative feedback loop (servo) on your solenoid input and actual effects. Efficient, highly versatile, extremely precise. Just plug the numbers in the ECU and you are go.

    Very good and informative to understand how things work. Do you have a video on utilizing CO2 (carbon dioxide gas) on the wastegate presumably for cooling effects and better control? Was wondering if you also have a video on how anti-lag works? In the meantime I will look for videos on anti-lag systems.
    Awesome channel and thank you for the information and interest you have in the automotive industry.
