If you still don't understand, here's a more simple explanation.
Have you ever stood behind a fan, and feel the extra amount of air hitting you? That's because that fan is sucking in a lot of air. That's pretty much what Turbos are! They use exhaust flow to propel a fan, that sucks in more air for the engine.
For combustion to happen, you need oxygen. The more oxygen you have, the bigger the combustion. So when turbos suck in more air, you get a bigger explosion, which gives you more power.
@kalijasin Turbochargers increase thermal efficiency by creating useful work out of wasted exhaust gases. Using the heat and force of the exhaust gases leaving the engine, the turbo sucks in air that otherwise is done simply by the piston moving down. Turbo's greatly improve volumetric efficiency. Also, turbo's allow for the use of smaller engines (with lesser frictional losses than large engines) that create equal power to larger engines.
@kalijasin depends on how you drive. if your hard on your car, then you have terrible fuel economy. if you drive casually, then turbochargers actually increase your fuel economy.
@Tiho2011 Actually, to be more specific, after a heavy run, for example motorway driving, BEFORE you switch the car off you need to let it idle for a few minuites to cool down the oil as it will damage the oil seals inside the turbo and may also harm the propellor
@1tirefryer so more boost and a better oil pump can increase rpm limit? ive been wondering that for the longest time now, I wanna get my 2002 camaro rev limit to 8500 or 9000( if thats even possible...Ive seen a v-8 get to 9000 before)
@redghost105 i dont have a camaro, but i drive a turbo 350z, in order to put my rev up, i had to put a engin management aka computer, your stock EMS wont let you bypass it. it cost around 1200 and i dont recomened it but if your into racing its worth it but its very hard on stock internal engin components. if you do have money, talked to someone in this field of work, if you do have a lot of dow, i would recommend maybe forged piston, rings, connecting rod, better head.
stupid question but i'm a noob so um. from the animation it seem that the turbo has pipping from the itself to the engine then itself again. My question is where is the intake how does air enter the turbo.
@sdozie k, air comes from the front of the car, into the airbox, through the aircleaner, down the intake pipe, into the compressor wheel at the front of the turbo, pressurised by the wheel and housing and forced out the compressor outlet, and either straight to the throttle body or through an intercooler then the throttle body, after which it enters the intake manifold, then the inlet ports, gets mixed with fuel and er, combustion happens, to put it simply.
@duckar non turbo charged, the motor is reliant entirely on atmospheric pressure and the engines own vaccuum to draw air in, its not forced as it would be with a turbo.
@reap62 It's not talking about drag racing, it's talking about turbochargers. Yes there are roads that are higher than 15k feet ASL, and yes they have been used by trucks equipped with turbochargers for that specific reason of efficiency. Oh and normally you don't put a question mark at the end of a statement, dumbass.
@sqhschief you literally just started an argument over nothing i made a joke i know why turbochargers are used and it wasn't a statement i wasn't sure if i said it and didn't realize i said it hence the question mark, "dumbass."
how does a high altitude flying plane compensate for the drop in oxygen at such altitudes?...is a jet engine itself strong enough to make up for the loss in oxygen? wont the engine suffer at this altiitude causing it o slow down?
less oxygen makes the turbofan engine recalibrate the fuel flow to get the best mixture and still have loads of power, an aircraft @ 30,000 to 40,000ft uses a 78 to 88% of it's power/throttle to keep it's cruising speed. It won't have the same performance as being on sea level, but it can keep or accelerate from low speeds above 30,000 ft from Mach 0.70 to 0.85 like 700 to 910 km/h (passenger aircraft)
@GHICAGO71 also the 350z is a 3.5L engine and is also naturaly aspirated but produces more hp.. almost 50 more.. and no im not saying the 350z is a great car.. its not at all. but that puts your eclipse into perspective
@GHICAGO71 eeeew eclipse.. 3.8L v6 and only 260BHP... thats barely 68Hp per liter.. thats a laugh, AND its front wheel drive and 6.5 seconds to 60 from 260BHP? haha that power to weight ratio is the same on a 350z , 350z are super heavy cars, but at least their RWD. you wasted your money.
Starting with a 3.8 V6 - you could seriously make a car that will hurt you :D If you're ok with fabricating a manifold and general mechanical stuff, then all you need todo is sort out the fueling and you're away.
Either try and get your currect ECU remapped on a dyno, or get a piggyback chip, or if you want full control and get it perfect - get a custom ECU/EMS!
Assuming you have the money or knowledge and tools you can turbocharge just about anything.
A 3.8L V6 would be a pretty mental engine to turbo charge - But its hard to estimate how much power you will gain. If you upgrade the internals to forged parts that can take a beating, the power increase will be limitless (will kinda :P) - A simple turbo install running @ about 0.6bar would get you a nice kick :)
I have a quad turbo system running in my wrx sti, i have one connected to each individual head exhaust that i welded myself but for some reason the exhaust is leaving through my air conditioning system. Any ideas?
ok correct me if im wrong. the turbo gets spinned from exhaust gases. the spinning of the turbine spins the other turbine thru a crank. so where does the exhaust that went into the turbo go? into the engine again?
No out the back of the car. Remember. Instead of an exhaust manifold like an n/a car there is a turbo manifold with the turbo on top of it.
It's almost as if the turbo is an extension of your exhaust pipe and your air intake at the same time. One side is for compressing the intake air and the other uses exhaust gases to spin the intake to suck in air faster and also hoot exhaust gases out of the exhaust pipe faster.
Like adding steriods to your intake and exhaust systems.
@takle84 depends on compression and amount of boost. if you were to put a turbo on a motor not set up for a turbo it would definantly effect engine life.
They also make twin charge kits. Supercharger cuts out mid rpm and turbo takes over. As for the gas-mileage. If you turbo a naturally aspirated motor you will get less gas mileage. BUT they can make smaller engines with more power. that's the real benefit.
@monsterenergy0102 I guess you should go tell that to the guys with the fastest cars in the world A.K.A. Blown fuels, let me know how many times you get beat for saying that.
I am not a mechanic, so this may sound like a silly question, but if a turbo forces air into the intake - would this not weaken the air/fuel mixture? Modern fuel injection may automatically compensate for this but how would it affect a carburettor engine?
well i think when theres some compressed air over the fuel explosion, the explosion will go more down againt the cylender.. really i dont know xD just a tought
true supercharger is cheaper then high end turbo, also give good HP boost. The downside about SC is that it stress the engine sences its pully on the belt. More stress on engine less life it lives.
sir can anyone answer my question and send me a message... sir is CT-9 turbo for toyota 4afte is slight loose? i mean is if you move the turbo shaft sideways i moves a little some say it is clearance is it true?
slight shaft play on most newer [90's] Toyota Turbos is very normal. There is a tolerance you can get from Toyota so that you can measure the shaft play and decide whether or not it needs to be rebuilt
Turbocharger does take power from the engine while the piston goes up and pushes the exhaust gas to drive the turbine that is linked to the compressor.
In other words the air resistance on the compressor is felt by the turbine then by the exhaust piston
I think the turbocharger is only using the surplus of enthalpy from the high temperature exhaust. It is like converting the heat into work
Turbo's don't take as much power as you think... as you accelerate any unburnt fuel and gases will then be pushed back into the cylinder to be burnt properly until the turbo spins up on higher revs. because as you said, the exhaust drives the turbine, so there will be back pressure when the turbo isn't on high speed
In Europe they don't bult superchargers on cars. But I think a supercharged engine would produce more torque becos its connected directly on the engine. The turbocharger need exhoast gas to power it up. So the power of the turbocharger will not be directly available. Variable turbo helps that a bit but even so the turbocharger is more directly
Thx for posting this. They somewhat victimize superchargers in this vid, but in all reality, modern superchargers can also be quite efficient as well.
I may be wrong, but I think I see a couple of phonies on this thread. If you are going to attempt to correct someone you might want to make sure your grammar is somewhat correct. At least that way they can understand you when you try to school them. I'm sorry for nagging, but it gets on my nerves when people try to act smart and talk (or type) dumb. Otherwise that was a good clip. It needs an update on the animations though. Haha
Lol. Turbo or Supercharger don't lag, idiot. Turbo give RPM more power in same number, EX: 2 RPM without turbo to be low, within to be high on same number 2 RPM. (Without Turbo: Low 2 RPM / With Turbo: High 2 RPM) Idiot, how is it lag? And, what if I put bigger turbo with twin turbo, what will happen? HIGHER MOTHERFUCKER POWER! Bitches.
you could but you might loose power or not be able to start the engine because an engine can only breathe so much thats why engines dont have like 10 valves per cylinder.
Go with a small t3/t4 with a supercharger and you wont be disappointed. you have the supercharger there for low end torque start, then as you get to about 3k/4k the turbo and supercharger work together, and if you tune it right, it can be very powerful, but terrible for gas mileage.
ok boosting a supercharger with a turbo if you really think about it the supercharger will only boost what it is capable of and pushing boost through it would not work the padddles inside would slow the boost and probably build up and blow a housing know im not gonna gonna say you cant boost a turbo but why twins or a reasonable single would do the job
I already have the design laid out in my head, I just don't want to explain it on the interwebz, lol. It is very possible though, it just takes some keen engineering. Most don't do it because its too much work, but if you have the money time and smarts to build it, it will work, and epically at that.
You can but it would take up tons of space and you will blow your engine. Just leave the twin turbos on you will get more horsepower than a supercharger anyway and faster acceleration. Thats just one reason.
twin turbos have almost no lag on the other hand. superchargers don't but if your running your supercharger on non highway type areas then you will lower your gas mileage. most engines weren't built to handle super fast accelleration all of the sudden for that matter and lots of people don't know when to inject it therefore blowing a valve or something of the like.
Sequential turbo works more efficiently eliminate lag, twin turbos are the same turbo X 2. I understand they would spool at the same rate and produce 2 X as much power; however, with the MR2 turbo they used sequential turbos and it did well.
Yessir and with a twin turbo (parallel) you usually put a bit smaller turbos on and with the right tuning you will get perhaps 30psi boost or more and spool start at about 2500 rpm some cases even better. Therefore for twin turbo would outperform most supercharged/nitrous/single turbo/sequential turbo setups but weight and balance is also an issue to keep in mind (manifolds/tubes/large turbos, etc.)
MR2 was only Turbocharged in the MKII MR2 where it used the same CT-26 [older models] and CT-20b [Newer models] turbochargers that are found in the Celica like mine.
They were always twin ENTRY but never twin or sequential Turbo.
If you want an explanation of what twin entry is I'd be happy to help you out with that.
it would take alot of work and money nd time. u can compund charge 1 turbo nd 1 supercharger
nd it would be next to useless cus ur compressing the air a certain amount, then trying to compress already compressed air- which wouldnt really do much, if u think about it- a supercharging spinning as fast as the turbo is spooling, the supercharger would just slow down the air, and provide intake stuggles/restrictions-it would be as if if air filter is clogged- it makes it harder for air to get in
thank god.... Finally a video that teaches morons a turbo actually works. I hate when people start talking like they know alot about cars, when really they have no idea on how a car even works

So... all a Turbo does is just inject more air into the mixture?
elitecssplayer 2 years ago
it compresses air, effectively allowing more air into the mix

What about gas milage? Better or Worse?

much better if youre driving normal.

I am not a mechanic, so this may sound like a silly question, but if a turbo forces air into the intake - would this not weaken the air/fuel mixture? Modern fuel injection may automatically compensate for this but how would it affect a carburettor engine?

well i think when theres some compressed air over the fuel explosion, the explosion will go more down againt the cylender.. really i dont know xD just a tought

there's usually a screw type mechanism that increases the flow rate of the gas from the carb.

So what do you think is more powerful a turbocharger of a supercharger send me your opinions.
ERIK5564 2 years ago
@ERIK5564
Neither really. Turbos are more powerful at high rpms, superchargers at low revs. Imo Turbos are better tho, much more efficient

true supercharger is cheaper then high end turbo, also give good HP boost. The downside about SC is that it stress the engine sences its pully on the belt. More stress on engine less life it lives.

sir can anyone answer my question and send me a message... sir is CT-9 turbo for toyota 4afte is slight loose? i mean is if you move the turbo shaft sideways i moves a little some say it is clearance is it true?
kidehilario 2 years ago
slight shaft play on most newer [90's] Toyota Turbos is very normal. There is a tolerance you can get from Toyota so that you can measure the shaft play and decide whether or not it needs to be rebuilt

He said something that i believe is wrong:
Turbocharger doesn't take power from the engine
Turbocharger does take power from the engine while the piston goes up and pushes the exhaust gas to drive the turbine that is linked to the compressor.
In other words the air resistance on the compressor is felt by the turbine then by the exhaust piston
I think the turbocharger is only using the surplus of enthalpy from the high temperature exhaust. It is like converting the heat into work
mcdemba 2 years ago
Turbo's don't take as much power as you think... as you accelerate any unburnt fuel and gases will then be pushed back into the cylinder to be burnt properly until the turbo spins up on higher revs. because as you said, the exhaust drives the turbine, so there will be back pressure when the turbo isn't on high speed

In Europe they don't bult superchargers on cars. But I think a supercharged engine would produce more torque becos its connected directly on the engine. The turbocharger need exhoast gas to power it up. So the power of the turbocharger will not be directly available. Variable turbo helps that a bit but even so the turbocharger is more directly

Thx for posting this. They somewhat victimize superchargers in this vid, but in all reality, modern superchargers can also be quite efficient as well.

imagine fighterplane turbochargers they had used in the world war. since the higher altitude has low oxygen, i guess they'd need huge turbos haha.

I may be wrong, but I think I see a couple of phonies on this thread. If you are going to attempt to correct someone you might want to make sure your grammar is somewhat correct. At least that way they can understand you when you try to school them. I'm sorry for nagging, but it gets on my nerves when people try to act smart and talk (or type) dumb. Otherwise that was a good clip. It needs an update on the animations though. Haha

Lol. Turbo or Supercharger don't lag, idiot. Turbo give RPM more power in same number, EX: 2 RPM without turbo to be low, within to be high on same number 2 RPM. (Without Turbo: Low 2 RPM / With Turbo: High 2 RPM) Idiot, how is it lag? And, what if I put bigger turbo with twin turbo, what will happen? HIGHER MOTHERFUCKER POWER! Bitches.

you could but you might loose power or not be able to start the engine because an engine can only breathe so much thats why engines dont have like 10 valves per cylinder.
superfunnyman123 2 years ago
Go with a small t3/t4 with a supercharger and you wont be disappointed. you have the supercharger there for low end torque start, then as you get to about 3k/4k the turbo and supercharger work together, and if you tune it right, it can be very powerful, but terrible for gas mileage.
bastec666 2 years ago
ok boosting a supercharger with a turbo if you really think about it the supercharger will only boost what it is capable of and pushing boost through it would not work the padddles inside would slow the boost and probably build up and blow a housing know im not gonna gonna say you cant boost a turbo but why twins or a reasonable single would do the job
blowngn 2 years ago
I already have the design laid out in my head, I just don't want to explain it on the interwebz, lol. It is very possible though, it just takes some keen engineering. Most don't do it because its too much work, but if you have the money time and smarts to build it, it will work, and epically at that.
bastec666 2 years ago
you can
MrRobato23 2 years ago
You can but it would take up tons of space and you will blow your engine. Just leave the twin turbos on you will get more horsepower than a supercharger anyway and faster acceleration. Thats just one reason.

Turbos have lag, superchargers don't. The hybrid in theory could eliminate the spool...or you could just use nitrous like most...
DiminishedFaith 2 years ago 3
twin turbos have almost no lag on the other hand. superchargers don't but if your running your supercharger on non highway type areas then you will lower your gas mileage. most engines weren't built to handle super fast accelleration all of the sudden for that matter and lots of people don't know when to inject it therefore blowing a valve or something of the like.
M50SNIPER 2 years ago
Sequential turbo works more efficiently eliminate lag, twin turbos are the same turbo X 2. I understand they would spool at the same rate and produce 2 X as much power; however, with the MR2 turbo they used sequential turbos and it did well.
DiminishedFaith 2 years ago
Yessir and with a twin turbo (parallel) you usually put a bit smaller turbos on and with the right tuning you will get perhaps 30psi boost or more and spool start at about 2500 rpm some cases even better. Therefore for twin turbo would outperform most supercharged/nitrous/single turbo/sequential turbo setups but weight and balance is also an issue to keep in mind (manifolds/tubes/large turbos, etc.)
M50SNIPER 2 years ago
MR2 was only Turbocharged in the MKII MR2 where it used the same CT-26 [older models] and CT-20b [Newer models] turbochargers that are found in the Celica like mine.
They were always twin ENTRY but never twin or sequential Turbo.
If you want an explanation of what twin entry is I'd be happy to help you out with that.

There are so many possible variables in that question, it would be impossible to properly recommend a turbine size without far more information.

it would take alot of work and money nd time. u can compund charge 1 turbo nd 1 supercharger
nd it would be next to useless cus ur compressing the air a certain amount, then trying to compress already compressed air- which wouldnt really do much, if u think about it- a supercharging spinning as fast as the turbo is spooling, the supercharger would just slow down the air, and provide intake stuggles/restrictions-it would be as if if air filter is clogged- it makes it harder for air to get in
