Thanks. I'm actually working on mounting the TP Power motor to the P2 blower right now. I have all the "hard to get" parts on hand too - particularly the belt and the pulley. Hopefully there will be a video of the whole setup running at least on low power in the next several days.

Thanks, Robbi.

It's definitely a nice piece.

Are you referring to Torqamp? Those are really only good for about 200 hp. This unit should be good for 600-650 hp (less on lower powered cars that want to run more boost - the boost/max output relationship has yet to be established). This setup would cost about $1,500 USD (sorry, no pound symbol on my keyboard) to reproduce without batteries if you DIY. Not that I'm suggesting you do so. And if you do, I'm not responsible for any harm. But if you do, the really nice thing about this setup is how flexible it is - it'll work just fine on 150 hp engines up to 500 hp engines.

@@AlexLTDLX Hi,yes i was referring to torqamp. Your setup sounds fantastic but i don't feel im knowledgeable enough to partake such a thing.i only have a civic with a 1.6 vtec producing 110bhp and would be happy with something like a 50bhp brief boost for sure, nothing to crazy. I suppose i could fit a Nos kit for that and cheaper but i much prefer this idea. Really enjoy your videos and thank you for the reply.

@@AlexLTDLX Awesome video and a great primer to the 'fun' of figuring VESC out. Thank you. I can't help but be a troll... 650HP? Is that all? Teslas can do that without the smelly and complicated squish bang expand exhausty bit :-P

​@@jibbyjabby7499 if you just add a motor in parallel to the engine as a sort of hybrid, the Trampa could easily give you a 20-25HP boost, and with improved low end torque if you gear it right

Check out my most recent vid, where we power up the VESC/P2 e turbo for the first time. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks!

I do wish there was a verified one-stop comprehensive set of instructions...

Tried everything possible, under the tutelage of Frank at Trampa. Just not good at high power/high eRPM. If you look through my videos, I've given the VESC many, many tries.

Belt for blower arrived today. Waiting on pulley for the motor... Doing my best.

I'm sorry to hear that. I think there's still work to be done before it can truly be considered ready for the public. But once it does get sorted, it should be a great tool because of all the data you can get out of it in real time.

it depends, current control without any load will go max speed without any control, you need to use PID speed control or Duty Cycle control if you actually just wanna control the speed, but that way you need to be sure the rest is set up correctly cause it'll try to push all the power it can to its set limits i prefer current control for the sake of being able to control how much power/torque i feed maximally

Lol. Me too, tbh.

Lol - that makes two of us - on both fronts! Perhaps that's why there's been so much fire in this electric turbo development... speaking of which, this controller will control a second, more streamlined and cheaper/easier to build unit than my first one. Thanks for posting and subscribing!

@@AlexLTDLX This is some very cool stuff you are doing! So in-depth that I'm sure the electrical guys are enjoying it, and I am trying to understand some of it, but my old brain isn't "wired for it" (see how I did that...lol) Just can't wait for some more rolling footage!

Yeah, that should be easy for it. But they do recommend staying around 63 volts; they're concerned about voltage spikes.

It's been a while; VESC is honestly problematic all around. I don't remember the install process, but I'm seeing the latest update is a bit difficult to install for others. It's disappointing; and I'm a bit annoyed I wasted that much money on it. It's not really a useable product.

That's a Zeee 9,000 mah 4s pack. This is a two pack of these exact batteries: amzn.to/3T2TFmy , this is a single battery but with a deans connector (and a better price): amzn.to/3e8v9Bo

Yes - in this case it refers to the signal from an RC receiver or servo tester. Typically 50 hz, with a pulsewidth of 1-2ms. 1ms being throttle off (or full brake or reverse - depending on how you have the thing configured) and 2ms being full throttle.

@@AlexLTDLX Do you know what device is connected to PPM Port? I am making EV Car with VESC 75/300 Controller, but I don't know how to use this.

@@AlexLTDLX Additionally, Could you tell me model name of anti-spark switch that you used?

Not enough voltage capability. I've already stepped back from 70 volts to 60 to accommodate available ESCs.

@@AlexLTDLX you should check out the BESC G2 - an open source VESC variant, you order the PCBs yourself so you basically make it but it is beefy - 100V 400A… you can build it alternatively to handle 150V and 250A. And the best thing is it only costs about $200 I believe? It varies with the cost of the electronics.

It's a micro USB connector.

Lol. Yeah, I admit - I do ask for directions if I'm lost (and have no phone or service...)
