Has anyone tried oilless turbochargers? I don't know much about them - I only know that they require more regular maintenance. Positives, negatives?
i've heard good things about the Comp Turbo's a few guys in the US and Europe are using them. fast spool & big power from what they say.
Yeah, I've been looking at Comp Turbos. How do they compare to your normal oil-fed turbo (comparing like for like housings, turbines etc.) in terms of reliability, spool speed, flow and power output?
If these really do have acceptible reliability they will be outstanding for many uses especially low mount and remote mount where a pump is normally used.
Does anyone have pricing?
These do look very interesting, would like to see a compressor graph to a comparable oil fed turbo.
Maps will be identical to the oil fed version.
I am somewhat suspect on the long term durability but definitely like the possibilities.
