Auto Tuning By Using The Turbocharger. Posted: 09 Oct 2010 10:46 AM PDT Using the turbocharger, there are two ways of tuning. The first type – is car tuning, which was originally designed with the turbocharger. The second type – is installing the turbine on the car, which is not adapted to it. As you have understood, the second type is much more complicated. Let’s start with the simple. It is not difficult to raise the power of the car with a turbocharger. For example, you can increase the boost pressure. Here it is important not to “overdo”, otherwise the engine may not withstand. You can rely on the following indicators: an increase in boost at 0.1 bar, engine power is increased by 10% – it is optimal. If you install an additional intercooler, you can increase the pressure to 0, 2 bar, but no more. When increasing the pressure, the temperature in the system increases, and if the intercooler does not handle, the load on the pistons will rise and the engine cannot withstand the load. The second type of tuning is more difficult to implement, as a consequence, it is more expensive. If you decide to do it, it would be better to apply to the specialized companies as well as the development of this type of tuning – is a complex process, requiring a large amount of special knowledge. The first difficulty that arises at once – is the choice of turbocharger, in addition, you will have to completely redesign many components and systems: clutch, cooling system and lubrication, ignition system, exhaust system, etc. It is often necessary to reduce the geometric compression ratio of the engine. This can be done through the use of pistons with a reduced height from the axis of piston pin to the bottom. You can increase the combustion chamber inside the cylinder head. There are other methods, but they all require additional financial injections. With a large increase in engine power, you have to strengthen the chassis, change the brake system. Does a turbocharger need the service? No, but as it is greased with oil from the lubrication system of the engine, the problem with this system “will reverberate” on the turbocharger. Usually, the lack of oil leads to more wear and damage. Signs of problems with turbocharger can be: reduced engine power, black or blue smoke from the exhaust pipe, the increase of motor oil or noise when using a turbocharger. The above listed symptoms do not always indicate malfunction of turbocharger – first of all, you need to check serviceability of the engine and mounted units. On the engine running smoothly, which is maintained timely and accurately, the turbocharger is able to work for a long time and qualitatively. Repair of the turbocharger (even minor) must take place in the workshop designed for this, because it requires special knowledge, skills and equipment. In addition, when performing any works with the aggregate, it must be provided an ideal cleanliness, as even one grain of sand caught in the turbocharger can disable it. Long time ago car changed into not only a vehicle but also a luxury and entertainment object. Many people would like to have high-powered sport car but not all of them can afford it. There is a way out – turbo kits. Those who search how to make their car a unique masterpiece, visit this site. Lots of info about performance parts and how to order them.

How Does The Turbocharger Increase Performance Of Your Car? Posted: 09 Oct 2010 10:46 AM PDT Power developed by the engine depends directly on the amount of air and fuel mixed with it which is fed to the engine. To increase the performance of the engine, you should increase the amount of intake air and fuel. Submission of more fuel will not do anything until a sufficient quantity of air for its combustion appear, otherwise an excess of unburned fuel will form that leads to engine overheating, which is also very smoking. Turbocharger multiplies the power of the engine by giving it the required amount of compressed air sufficient for the absolute combustion of increased dose of fuel. Consequently, under the previous working volume and the same speed we get bigger power. In addition, the process of combustion improves that increases the engine performance in a wide range of numbers of turns. How does the turbocharger work? The core parts of any turbocharger are the turbine and centrifugal air pump, interconnected by a common rigid axis. Both of these elements rotate in one direction and at the same speed (and huge – about 100.000 rpm!). The energy flow of worked gases, which is not used in ordinary engines, is transformed here into a torque actuating the compressor. The exhaust gases outgoing from the cylinder are transferred to the impeller turbine, which converts their kinetic energy into mechanical energy of rotation (torque). Compressor (it is a similar impeller, mounted on the other end of the axis) draws fresh air through the air filter, compresses it and submits it to the engine cylinders. The amount of fuel that can be mixed with air may be increased that allows the engine to develop the maximum power. There are also many other structures of turbochargers. What motors can be installed the turbocharger on? Turbocharger can be installed on any internal combustion engine: diesel, gasoline or gas-fired, having liquid or air cooling. Turbochargers are used at the engines with a large working volume (marine, locomotive and stationary), as well as at engines of trucks and cars. It has no meaning whether it is two-stroke or four stroke engine. Today, virtually all large diesel engines over 150 kW, used in industry, shipbuilding, for road construction works, are equipped with a turbocharger (sometimes even more). In the field of road transport now almost any diesel engine with power over 80 kw is equipped with a turbocharger. Transition of the turbochargers to the petrol engines was more difficult, but it has accelerated due to the experience of their use in the ring racing and rallies. Increase of production of materials which withstand high temperatures, improving of the quality of motor oils, the use of liquid cooling of turbocharger, power control of valves – all it contributed to the fact that these units have been used in small-scale gasoline engines that, in conjunction with fuel injection and electronic ignition, made possible to achieve high performance.
