Hey guys, In school I and a few other guys are building a super mileage car(high fuel economy) and in order to get better burn I would like to build a turbocharger. The only problems I see with my ideas is the impellers, how to make one or get one. The impellers I have seen have some sort of helix in them,
The motor is going to be run for about 1-2 minutes at a time with intervals up to 5 or so minutes, will be going around a 6 mile track twice. Im not too worried about heat, and I will want the turbo to be really light so it spins up fast.
Does anyone have any information that could help me? size and everything I would like to know, for the impellers I am thinking around 1-1.5" in diameter.
Thankyou
