We need a version with at least 3x pressure so it can work on 1x1 modular engines, besides that this mod is great and i trust in its potential

i have the opposite issue with the ZE controller, large engines make too much boost and small engines don't make that much
Grillkol  [author] 30 Sep @ 4:53am 
i dont really think that would be needed, its already easy to hit large boost on small engines and would be op, but on the big ones it can run out of boost so im considering making bigger ones.
Jepster 28 Sep @ 2:11am 
can you make 1 or 2 version with like x2, x3 pressure? would be needed for smaller engines
Ronin-2 "Ravenstorm" 26 Sep @ 6:22am 
also, the ZE modular controller is a lot more capable of handling turbos than other ECUs i've used
Ronin-2 "Ravenstorm" 26 Sep @ 6:15am 
i figured it out how to solve engines dying, no clue why but adding an intake and exhaust without a turbo seemed to run well alongside the turbos

hey I have a problem whenever I install the turbo it works as it should but the engine dies like it revs up turbo spools then RPMs drop and engine stutters and barely runs and then runs fine when I let off throttle otherwise great mod
ir0nic 28 Aug @ 5:41pm 
having an issue, with the turbo attached, the engine wont stay on. it acts like its running out of fuel or isnt expelling exhaust. i have tried all sorts of different things with the same result, including extra pumps on both ends. bypassing the turbo with a valve, the engine works fine. havent been able to find anything wrong with it other than it just wont work
MrToast 15 Aug @ 4:11pm 
Can you add a stu stu stu if the Turbo pressure Drops quickly?
Jason_Nighthawk1 14 Aug @ 6:46pm 
i just tested this on a modular engine and i can hear it spooling when the engine is running without infinite fuel (can it spool with infinite fuel on?

way too cheap for a turbo imo should cost like $700 at least
UIU_Trooper 12 Aug @ 11:01am 
turbo doesnt spool up for whatever reason, the turbine rps never gains
Grillkol  [author] 12 Aug @ 6:10am 
havent tested in multiplayer, should work
[spacebar] 5 Aug @ 6:44am 
does this work with the new modding update in multiplayer?
DeeDoo 29 Jul @ 4:57am 
maar... You don't need to talk in all caps. People will see your comment whether or not you're shouting it.
Zel 25 Jul @ 4:20pm 
Please add a Volume Slider btw i wanna hear that turbo go weeeeeeeeeee
Zel 25 Jul @ 4:20pm 
If yall are interested i just finished V2 of my ecu with support for any turbo mod. Works great with this one single or multi turbo.
maarjap6der 20 Jul @ 7:54am 
I DONT KNOW WHATS GOING ON A 2 CYL IT WORKS FINE WHEN ITS ON A 3 CYL THEN THE RPS GOES TO 180 RPS THEN ITS STARTED GOING DOWN AND DOWN IT HIT ZERO IM GONNA THINK ITS BECUSE EXHAUST GOES IN AND OUT IT WORKS FINE WHEN I CONNECTED IT TO A ONE WAY VALVE ON IT PLS FIX THIS
{TAH} TheGdog 18 Jul @ 6:49pm 
yeah, if u experience that, i use sharps v4 ecu. works wonders
Nick Name 17 Jul @ 2:34pm 
it works just fine, you're prob just using a bad engine controller that cant deal with the extra air intake.
PetercarDashSlapper 14 Jul @ 11:31pm 
compared it with and without on my own engines. performed 20% worse in power output and lost 7% in efficiency. very loud device and not feasible for my applications
Phroogo 14 Jul @ 2:20pm 
i think it should cost more since turbos irl cost about $200-$400
Finnos 14 Jul @ 6:37am 
Hey man in the future updates you reckon you could make it decelerate or the sound die down quicker? i feel like the internals have too much inertia but i could be wrong. I also found if you compound one into another then use the exhaust gas from the second to feed the first you get a lot more boost (I almost 1.75x my power).
Finnos 14 Jul @ 6:35am 
to people saying they cant hear it spool, means you probably dont flow enough gas in or not enough load on the engine. I run one on a 6cyl and it spools nicely.
poop35 13 Jul @ 12:31pm 
Would you mind if i use this in one of my future cars?
THEDANMANEXT 12 Jul @ 7:20pm 
Awesome mod man, works really well! could you just make it a little louder plz :)
Nick Name 12 Jul @ 9:46am 
can hear it, but its quite high pitched and weird tbh
John Fitzgerald Kennedy 12 Jul @ 5:23am 
cant really hear the turbo spool
deckie 12 Jul @ 3:30am 
The turbocharger sounds very quiet, can we please get the sound made louder?
EZPass 11 Jul @ 9:45am 
What do I connect to the turbos "RPS" port?
johnyboy 11 Jul @ 9:06am 
I have a problem I cant go to max rps or my engine die
veszett kutya 11 Jul @ 7:09am 
Would it be possible to make the volume of the sound adjustable? Cause I barely hear the sound of it while an engine is running and it'd actually be cool hearing the turbo spool.
Phroogo 10 Jul @ 8:38pm 
Stututututu
Nick Name 10 Jul @ 5:38pm 
the connections have a tiny gap, its noticeable
alolol1000 10 Jul @ 12:25pm 
@GEEP
The other mod is more versitile as the turbocharger give out rps instead of air pressure so can be used fr other stuff insead
poop35 10 Jul @ 7:12am 
This mod seems to work completly different and is much better when it comes to realism and it has sounds unlike that mod this is simply better
Grover Cleveland 10 Jul @ 5:58am 
Did you just knock off a mod that came out a day earlier?

Inverspe 10 Jul @ 3:26am 
Why can’t I hear the turbo sound
Finnos 10 Jul @ 2:21am 
finally
poop35 9 Jul @ 11:37pm 
One small bug report on regular 1x1 cylinder engines the turbo seems to have issue producing boost it makes a lot of boost on 3X3 engines but its struggling on 1X1's
DarquosLeblack 9 Jul @ 11:34pm 
Are you open for feature suggestions on this one?
poop35 9 Jul @ 11:17pm 
EZPass its called turbocharger in inventory and you have to enable it as mods for it to show up in your inventory after you put it in a build and save it it will stay on the build without enabling mod
Deranged Roomba 9 Jul @ 8:35pm 
not sure what i did, but there was a bright flash, explosion, instant death.
how do you recommend to put it on the engines with two exhaust outputs? both fed into one turbo or just let one exhaust straight out? i tried twin turbo on a medium engine and created Hiroshima apparently. my ship is just gone.
Ferny 9 Jul @ 6:21pm 
hey Grillkol, would you be willing to share the lua code written for this? I'm trying to learn how to make mods and i would love mess around with this one. Can be in DM and I wouldn't upload anything I made with the code
Crazycat123 9 Jul @ 6:06pm 
YYYYYAAY
ACE 9 Jul @ 4:09pm 
ah, a separate block might be nice for stuff like a steam turbine yk
Grillkol  [author] 9 Jul @ 4:07pm 
its a 1x1x2 block, all in one so no impeller needed
ACE 9 Jul @ 3:49pm 
is it separate block to impeller? or the same.
Huntertrapper9 9 Jul @ 3:17pm 
so i removed the couple pipes i had between the air intake and the turbo and now it works
Huntertrapper9 9 Jul @ 2:50pm 
air does not seem to be going through the turbo
