  • incredible animation!!!

  • That's it?

  • is that a supercharger connected to an intercool connected to a tubo? please reply trying to figure out if i can do that and if it would be ok for the car

  • is that a supercharger connected to an intercool connected to a tubo? please reply

  • Americunts? Cave people? Yeah and American's are close minded.....

  • My Chrysler Concorde 3.2 is SOHC and 4 valve per cylinder

  • @MaxHPep Indeed. There are some other engines out there that are both SOHC and 4 valve, but they aren't very common. The disadvantage is losing the ability to change how each valve individually moves.

  • @needleonthevinyl Correct they are rare, but there are a few out there. But I like simplicity, and given the choice, I would prefer just 2 valves per cyclinder, SOHC. And look at the Cummins engines! They're 4 valves per cylinder and PUSHROD!

  • @MaxHPep It's worth noting that 2 valves per cylinder most times results in inferior air flow of a cylinder head, therefore is often a more inefficient design.

  • pounds per squire inch, MUHAHAaaa cavepeople. get out of the middle ages americunts, switch to the metric system like the rest of the world did.

  • i dont know what your talking about dude but i can clearly see the exhaust flow coming out the exaust, not into the engine.

  • The animation is not correct, it shows the flow of exhaust gases in to the engine!

    Exhaust gas comes out of the engine to drive the turbo.

  • @urbex2007 No it doesn't.

    It shows it spinning the fins and being rejected out a pipe... lol

  • good video

  • so where would a wastegate go?

  • before it reaches the turbine/hot side

  • As KSK4lyfe said, on the exhaust manifold just before the turbine. The idea behind a wastegate is to prevent the turbo from boosting too high. Putting it there allows it to "vent" excess boost accurately (it sees what the turbo sees), while still allowing the turbo to maintain it's peak desired boost level. Think of it like a "controlled leak" that prevents you from blowing up a balloon so much that it pops.

  • goog

  • Hi. Thanks for the video about turbo. But the turbo timer is use to cool down the turbo rite? But how? If the turbo timer stops the turbo from spinning, how the air flow? Can u help me with this?

  • The turbo timer keeps the engine running after you turn off the engine, letting the entire engine cool down, not just the turbo. I honestly don't see why not all cars come with this stock.

  • To be honest, with an NA engine, you don't need one. The reason why it is a good idea to have one in a turbo charged car is that if you have a synthetic oil, the rapid cooling of the oil caused by switching the engine off straight away after a long run can cause the oil to calcify. Turbo's don't tend to last too long if that happens!

  • errr...that was all over the place..from turbos, jump to transmission and then jump to cams?:S

    whats the real aim of this animation?

  • the aim is to give you just that LITTLE BIT more knowledge about the mechanics of a car

  • sohc can have 16valve as well, dohc can also have 20v.. =)

  • check out the HOnda R series engine

  • How come Honda's V6 engines are all SOHC?

  • ...or 32 valves.

  • I was just going to say that. I had a 2000 Dodge Avenger v6 that was SOHC 24 valve.

  • thumbs up!

  • good!

  • informative!
