Can you swap a turbo on a turbocharged engine with a supercharger?
Yes, you will need to change exhaust manifolds, exhaust tubing and intake tubings.
What does it mean if a car is 'normally aspirated'?
A car is "normally aspirated" if it has no mechanical means of increasing the amount of air taken in by the air intake system. Turbocharged and Supercharged cars are examples of non-naturally aspirated vehicles. Turbocharged cars use an exhaust gas driven turbine to compress intake air and force it into the engine. Superchargers use a belt driven compressor to compress air and force it into the engine's intake. This is two different ways of achieving the same thing, more oxygen equals a better hotter faster burn of the fuel source, which increase the power of the engine. A Ram Air Intake is considered a normal means of aspiraton. A Ram Air Intake is when you have a ducted intake system that has an opening facing the direction of forward velocity slightly increasing the air preasure into the enige.
What is the function of an intercooler?
An intercooler, or charge air cooler, is an air-to-air or air-to-liquid heat exchange device used on turbocharged and supercharged (forced induction) internal combustion engines to improve their volumetric efficiency by increasing intake air charge density through isochoric cooling. A decrease in air intake temperature provides a denser intake charge to the engine and allows more air and fuel to be combusted per engine cycle, increasing the output of the engine.
What causes excessive oil to go into the intake manifold in a turbocharged diesel engine?
your intake manifold gasket is cracked...replace it and you should be fine...if it continues you may have a bigger problem
What is the percentage amount of increase in horsepower of a turbocharged and after cooled marine engine with every degree centigrade reduction in air intake temperature?
1%
Least number of valves required at the top of a four-stroke cycle engine?
Two. Intake, and exhaust.
Do you really need the super charger in a 94 buick park ave?
If it has a supercharger then yes. If it doesnt have one then no. If you dont like the supercharged engine you have 2 choices, swap the ENTIRE engine and wiring harness out for a non supercharged one, or buy a new car. Just removing the supercharger and putting on a regular intake will create a poorly running engine. Ck my response to "do you really need a super charger in a 92 park avenue"
Where are the Pontiac 3800 series 1 supercharged engine sensor locations?
This question references General Motors built FWD vehicles with the 3800 Series supercharged engines. Sensors included the O2s in the exhaust manifold and the downstream of the catalytic converter pipe. knock sensors in the block, and the manifold absolute pressure sensors in the intake manifold.
Where is the egr valve located on a 2002 grand prix gtp with a 3.8l supercharged?
Its located on the driver's side of the engine bay behind the intake manifold. If you follow the headers you will see a cylindrical object with an electrical connector. That's it
What is supercharged engine?
Supercharging is not the same as turbocharging your engine. A turbocharger is driven by a belt and sucks in air by 2 big rotors inside. The air gets compressed and than cooled down in the intercooler. The difference is that with a supercharger you do not have tubo-lag because it's direct driven by a belt and a turbo needs to spool up before it can give you some extra power.
How does a after-cooler on a turbocharged diesel engine work?
After cooler and intercooler are the same thing, The intake air is heated after being compressed by the turbo. The after-cooler removes most of that heat, increasing it's density and doing so increases HP and the amount of boost you are able to run.
Can you put a turbo on a supercharged car?
Yes. The best way to do it is to feed the air coming off the turbo into the intake of the supercharger. Then off the supercharger into the intake. You can have one or more intecoolers. This setup is called Twincharged
