Twin-turbo setups split exhaust flow between two turbochargers to deliver smoother power, quicker response, and higher potential output than a single large turbo. Different configurations—parallel, ...

A supercharger—such as a turbo—compresses air. Compressing air heats it. Heating air makes it expand. This is a Catch 22 inherent in supercharging. So rather than thinking of quantities of air in ...

Smaller engines with fewer cylinders and less displacement could produce more power and torque by turbocharging. A turbo or turbocharger is a forced-induction device that utilizes exhaust gasses to ...

I was told by the workshop that my car has an intercooler and it is busted. What does this mean? Intercoolers are fitted to cars with superchargers or turbochargers. On these types of engines, the ...

Back in the 1660s, chemist and physicist Robert Boyle discovered the connection between pressure (p), volume (V), and energy (K). He based his theories, which became known as Boyle’s Law, on his own ...

There's no denying that supercharging and turbocharging engines is becoming more and more popular every day. Substantial increases in horsepower and torque, along with stock-like driveability make ...

From the December 1984 issue of Car and Driver. Who would have thought ten years ago that 1985 would reveal a production-car engine with a turbocharger, an intercooler, double overhead camshafts, four ...

Excess heat is the enemy when it comes to internal combustion engines. Operating temperature is ideal, but any degree above that starts to slowly sap power, put fluids to the test, increase friction, ...

The SPELAB Intercooler Bar and Plate for 2003–2009 Dodge Ram 2500/3500 5.9L/6.7L Diesel is engineered specifically for these ...
