    Is it possible to replace a turbine in any diesel with a compressor, e.g. from an old merca? How would this affect performance?

    After all, this will increase the cost of the car. Better chip for better performance

    Let's assume that it pays off, how would it affect the performance and operation of the engine (assuming a new map is loaded)?

    The advantage of a turbocharger is a large increase in power, but it is felt only when the compressor reaches its proper speed. The time that passes from the moment the gas pedal is depressed until the compressor is fully accelerated is called the turbo lag.

    In the case of a compressor, there is no turbo hole. On the other hand, the increase in power is smaller, but it occurs linearly from the moment the car starts moving, because the compressor is driven by the crankshaft. Such a solution, i.e. the constant coupling of the compressor with the engine, causes, however, that the engine consumes more fuel than the one equipped with a turbo.

    Okay, but suppose I am a partisan Janusz and I do something like the picture below. The principle of operation is similar to running in a scooter. When I need it, I have maximum top-up from low revs all the time, and if not, I don't care much. Besides, when the turbocharger collapses, the exhaust gas probably has an easier exit route, right? I guess it gives power too? And from this shaft probably a lot of this power such a compressor does not pull. Volkswagen 1.9Tdi - Can I convert the turbine in 1.9Tdi to a compressor?

    Look at the picture that says computer controlled. Besides, if facilitating the exit path for exhaust gases does not give any effects, why after changing the exhaust, such a Vtec can spit more out even with 15KM? Turbo must also get energy from somewhere to create pressure? There is nothing for free.

    I'm curious about this program and the computer that would control it

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the feasibility of replacing a turbine in a Volkswagen 1.9Tdi diesel engine with a compressor, specifically from an older Mercedes model. Participants highlight that while a turbocharger significantly boosts power, it suffers from turbo lag, whereas a compressor provides a more linear power increase from low revs but consumes more fuel due to its direct connection to the crankshaft. The conversation also touches on the potential performance implications, such as increased fuel consumption and the need for a new engine map. Some contributors question the practicality and efficiency of such a conversion, suggesting that it may not yield significant benefits compared to traditional turbocharging. The idea of using a compressor alongside a turbocharger is mentioned as a niche solution, with examples of extreme modifications leading to performance issues.
