Turbo and Superchargers

Oh, dude, valve clearances on a 407 Ade turbo? Like, who even knows that off the top of their head? You'd probably have better luck asking a car manual or a mechanic who isn't me. But hey, good luck with that!

Datsun came out with a twin-turbo model in 1987 with the release of the Nissan 300ZX Turbo.

A turbo uses the exhaust gases to spin a turbine wheel which is connected to the compressor wheel. As it speeds up the compressor wheel draws air in a compresses it in the compressor housing. The pressurized air is forced into the engine, increasing volumetric effiecencies and cylinder pressures which increases the torque output of the engine.

In a nutshell, it forces a higher amount of air/fuel mixture into the cylinder during the intake cycle.

Novel uses of turboelectric propulsion : • Turboelectric aircraft system studies, Core turboelectric new systems, and Megawatt- research facilities. Turboelectric systems are electric propulsion systems that use turbines to drive the electrical generators that power electric propulsion, which in turn drive propulsors (as propellers). These systems are probably the only approach for developing electric propulsion systems for a large passenger aircraft that can be feasibly achieved in the ongoing years. The use of other technologies, turboelectric systems could potentially reduce fuel burn by lots to 30 percent or more compared to aircraft in service today.

These projects would include research to better understand the benefits and design trade-offs related to line aircraft systems and the creation of system research facilities to better develop the core megawatt- line systems for turboelectric aircraft propulsion.

The turbo actuator is a critical component for a turbocharged engine and it can be tricky to put back on with the turbo still on the engine. To ensure the job is done safely and correctly its important that you follow the steps below:

• Disconnect the battery to ensure that no power is running to the engine.
• Locate the turbo actuator and loosen the clamp that holds it in place. You may need to use a wrench or socket to do this.
• Carefully remove the turbo actuator from the engine and set it aside.
• Clean the area around the turbo actuator and make sure it is free of debris.
• Reinstall the turbo actuator and tighten the clamp.
• Reconnect the battery and start the engine.
• Check the turbo actuator for proper operation.

By following these steps you should be able to successfully get the turbo actuator back on with the turbo still on the motor. Remember to take all necessary precautions when working on a turbocharged engine and always have a qualified mechanic do the job if you are not comfortable doing it yourself.

A supercharger increases the intake by compressing air above atmospheric pressure, without creating a vacuum. This forces more air into the engine, providing a boost. With the additional air in the boost, more fuel can be added to the charge, and the power of the engine is increased. Supercharging an engine adds an average of 46% more horsepower and 31% more torque.

Not enough that you would ever notice.

the 300zx is cheaper to buy a turbo'ed engine and all the managment that goes with it. otherwise you have to buy a differenct ecu and a turbo. modify the block and run oil breathers and all the running gear, intercoolers and sensors.

yes you can put a blow off valve on any turbo application, A blow off valve helps relieve boost pressure spike/surge when the throttle is quickly closed, helps prevent damage/excessive load on the turbo and throttle body.

a gate valve is a positive shut off valve for liquids and gases and should only be used in the fully open or closed positions, different temperatures and pressures must be considered to insure the correct type of valve to install. a sluice valve is a non-positive shut off valve used for heavier materials such as stone,grain,sand,etc.

They certainly are. Using them together with carburetted engines can be a bit tricky, and usually the compression has to be lowered when compared to a naturally aspirated engine.

yes

46 liters equals - 2807 cuin.

If you meant the 4.6 liter mustang motor is 281 cuin.

A turbocharger uses spent (wasted) exhaust energy to spin a compressor wheel, which forces more air into the combustion chamber in a process called forced induction. The process of FI allows a smaller displacement engine to maintain some semblance of fuel economy while still achieving a level of performance normally reserved for higher displacement engines. The two liter turbo of the 2nd generation (95-99) Eclipse/Talon was capable of 210hp, which is more than some v6s of the day, and the same maximum output of the 3 liter v6 that replaced it in 2000.

Popular applications usually involve engines smaller than 2 liters because of displacement based taxes in Europe and Asia, although some larger engines are also fitted with a turbocharger (the Subaru WRX and WRX STI being extremely popular examples).

It is located in the rear of the timing gear housing under the fuel injection pump.

If it's made by man it's going to stop working eventually. They wear out/burn out. Not necessarily at the same time. The other two could go tomorrow or last for years.

There are several types of turbo chargers.

· Single Turbo

· Twin turbo

· Twin Scroll turbo or Divided turbochargers

· Variable Geometry turbo.
