is there anyone in this vast world of OSO that can tell me of a small watercooled turbo that has been used on diesel or gas engines, needs to be watercooled. any info welcome.

that's what I do for a living.... there are quite a few selections...
I am a Garrett, Schwitzer, KKK, Borg Warner, and IHI Master Distributor.. JH |
Gale Banks had a number of Turbo Packages for boats. You can see pictures of package in other thread going on now.
http://www.offshoreonly.com/forums/s...d.php?t=167130 You can see the water cool coller that goes around the outside of the turbocharger. I believe in later years they made a turbocharger with the water passage in the turbo but I never saw one in person. |
most of the water cooled turbos went on generators

Watercooled the 4 exuast houslng myself on my 30 ft small block twin turboed boat. I rolled 1/8 304 stainless steel plate in radius around exuast housing. Made end plates tig welded togther. Drilled and weled water in and out fittings. Has worked fine for 12 years. Boat was electmotive computer controled ingnition, lake water intercoolers. Motors made over 700 HP with 14 PSI of boost. O-ringed heads now running 18 PSI for 10 years with out a problem.
Turbos Rule Good luck |
The KKK turbo used on some VolvoPenta Diesel (TAMD40) is Ok for the big block Chevy,the exhaust housing is water cooled and the exhaust turbine is made in Inconel so it can support the exhaust temp made by fuel engine.
you just have to check the wastegate to get the right boost. |

you just have to check the wastegate to get the right boost. the Early Porsche 911 (930) Turbos used it too. |
