600HP Supercharged & Turbocharged Mitsubishi EVO 5: How does it work? | Capturing Car Culture

Larry Chen travels to Indonesia to study the car culture and finds a unique Mitsubishi EVO 5 that has 600HP produced by a twin charged system. The first half of the intake and power is produced by a supercharger. After hitting 5500 RPM, simultaneously, the supercharger disengages with an auto clutch system and a butterfly valve releases directing air into the turbocharger to achieve that high end power band that most desire. Complicated, but very clever system!

Proud of the job Norris have done building this unique kit and we are glad it's getting the attention it deserves. We are proud to be part of a kit like this. A 76mm turbo for a 4cyl street car is a heavy turbo but combined with a supercharger is an epic setup. Great job Norris! Also congratulations to these customers at Indonesia for putting together such a unique build.

That's friggin sick. I've always loved the unique twincharged builds found on YouTube.

Another Lancia invention that wows us 40 years later

The builder is so humble. Great story.

[tomnekuda]

It is unbelievable how much these Japanese engines can take! This fellow has some serious mechanical skills.

Norris has been building some of the fastest street worthy Evos for a long time... Larry should pay a visit to the UK.

[MahesaArdhi]

I love this Indonesian series Larry, please come again!! Hope you can get more sponsors to support you to visit here again.

Not only the engine setup is unique from this Evo, the number plate is also unique. This custom number plate setup is only possible to get by asking the government to make it for you for around usd 2000 for 5 years... The owner definitely love this car 👌

this reminds me of an Evo 5 in the tuning shop i work in. it’s currently waiting for a billet engine block, and is a full time attack build. it’s twincharged and even with the old block, on JUST THE TURBO, it made over 1000HP. truly a mental build, can’t wait to see it reach completion

Hagerty is top notch. Chen & Camissa both make this the best auto channel on youtube, and I'm subscribed to almost every remotely popular one.

Twincharged engines are fascinating. None of the drawbacks of only a supercharger or turbo, but all of the benefits. I'm in to boosted bikes, I hope someday I can run twincharge on a Suzuki Bandit 1200. Incredible build, extremely well done.

I've been shooting so many awesome Evos recently, which brings me to the question. What happened to Mitsubishi? They were so cool 😅

[takashimatta]

The 400whp brio just casually being the camera car on the evo’s runs. Siiick!!

[mcgillagorilla]

The ECU tuning must be absolutely nuts on this thing.
That's what blows my mind more than even the excellent mechanical skills it would take to make this run.

Phenomenal vehicle and hats off to Andre for his skills and humility demonstrating his build.

[nomsi]

Twincharged builds are some of the best builds ever. Love to start a build like this.

[ななころび]

Im so proud of Larry Chen making his way across many channels. Inspiring as an entrepreneur...

[manievanniekerk]

I just love the rabbit-hole that led me to finding this car, this builder and the absolute passion in this video so soon.

[RetroMotiveAdventures]

I'm absolutely ecstatic hagerty titled the video what it is! This is a TWINCHARGED setup! So badass I'd love to find an HKS TWINCHARGED kit for my supercharged MR2 someday.

[andrewmcbain]

Love the build.

That pulley setup plus a supercharger with a by pass valve and Mad Max interceptor setup IRL. Seriously I wanted to do this ever since I first saw it on screen.

IM COMPLETLY OVERWHELMED
