With turbo techology that we have, wouldn't it be possible to make a 75 or 80 mm turbo capable of pushing enough air to support 1000 hp? Maybe Mark will chime in since he is the leader in VVT turbos. Haven ridden in both fixed and variable trucks, I personally like quick snap of the VVT but the top end of the fixed turbo. I will be starting a motor build this winter and would love to have a single VVT capable of making 1000 hp.
Bigger VVT Turbo
- Thread starter whitey
- Start date
It would be cool but unfortunately not a realistic goal due to lack of parts available to reach that kinda power. It takes a S475/87+mm turbined turbo to generate this level of power realistically and your giving up something to get to it.
I'm not sure if Mark can/cant or tried to make one bigger than his 72. It also looks as if they were never intended to make large amounts of power. http://www.turbos.bwauto.com/products/vtg.aspx Some info on this page
I've never even heard or seen a bigger wheeled VVT than Marks either.
Looks like I was to late.

I made 890hp 1600ftlbs fuel only with my truck 72mm vgt 12mmcp3 100%inj and it ran 10.96@12xmph at TS a few years ago. Yes you could spray to 1000hp+ but you would definitely want to gate it!:thumb:
I think it would be a laggy pig. Imagine trying to drive. S471 96mm 1.32 a/r on the street even with a lot of a fuel it wouldn't work well.
It would take some work, but your best bet would likely be a Holset HE551Ve or HE561Ve (Cummins ISX). Second in line would be a modded Garrett GT4502V (Detroit S60) with a better compressor.
Controlling either of them will be challenging.
