http://www.btnturbo.co.uk/images/pic_turboworks2.jpg In brief, the exaust from the engine passes through a part of the turbo that propells a fan-like object. That object compresses air into the pistons and makes a bigger boom=] For a more detailed explanation, please visit: http://www.btnturbo.co.uk/spindoctor/?id=6
A turbo is an exhaust gas powered supercharger.It uses the expansion of waste gas(exhaust) to spin a turbine wheel (the hotter the exhaust gases the faster they will expand and in turn the faster the turbine wheel will spin) that is connected by a shaft to an impeller wheel that sucks in and compresses the intake air charge before it reaches the combustion chamber
If the car is the same as in it came out of a non-turbo and your putting it in a non-turbo it will work but if it came out of a non-turbo and your putting it in a turbo then it won't work. If it came out of a turbo and your putting it in a non-turbo it won't work. If it came out of a turbo and your putting in a turbo then it will work.
Because the bov requires pressure in the intake system to work, this pressure comes from the turbo, no turbo on your car no pressure in your intake system to work one.
Yes, The turbo is just a booster but the engine makes a car run.
yes it will but you will need to change the ECU - computer that runs the car / timing / fuel and air ratios. hope this helps :)
An car with a turbo installed.
no if u take a turbo out of a car it is no longer a turbo charged car
That depends on the car. Most of the time it won't work. If you're thinking of a straight swap with no other work, than no it wont work. You're better off getting after market cams made for you car's engine
Yes and No. Intercoolers cool air that is compressed in a turbo. You can setup an intercooler on a non turbo car and have it connected to the air intake and such... .....it will rob you of horsepower by sending air through a lot of unnecessary tubes.
Yes. It can be installed to your car without having a turbo. Your car will operate the same whether you have a turbo installed or not.
Buy a turbo
Well, it IS possible. But it requires a lot of work other than merely slapping the turbo in there. Usually people are better off selling the car they have and then buying a new car that's already equipped the way they want it.
Well, you can, but a turbo conversion is a lot of work. You're better off selling the car and buying one that already has the turbo option.
