Williams TS51591 1/2 Drive Turbo Socket, 15mm

Product Information

Another benefit of using turbochargers is that they enable the engine to yield more torque at the lower rev range, which gives a car an edge while driving around the city. The additional torque comes handy for easily pinching the gaps. Due to the burning of more fuel, the energy output will be bigger faster, and the engine will be able to send more power to the wheels. The question could arise that why not the turbochargers get overheated despite running in extreme temperatures and taking huge loads of pressure. The answer is – an intercooler. There is an intercooler with every turbocharger that cools down the discharged hot air. The oil cooling system takes care of the turbo and does not let it become overheated.

If you are looking for the resolution to delete turbo lag, electric turbocharger is your main weapon. Assisting turbochargers where conventional turbo is not the best, electric turbocharger works by adding electric motors spinning the compressor of the turbo until the power from exhaust volume is high enough to start the turbocharger. And this is the most perfect turbochargers since it has the solutions for every problem of conventional turbochargers. How Does a Turbo Work? The turbine rotates at a high speed and spins the compressor too as both are mounted on the same shaft. When the hot air leaves the engine, it winds a turbine that in turn drives an air pump or compressor located at the engine’s front side. It pushes the air into the engine and allows a proper burn of the fuel.

Just like the name, a second turbocharger is installed to the engine. By doing this, the second turbo allows higher power and wider RPM range. To be more specific, the smaller turbo works at low RPMs, while the large one for higher RPMs. As a result, twin-turbo is high in the complexity, and cost. Variable Geometry TurbochargerWe’ll have a look at the detail of the sort of boost control systems you can expect to find in the next instalment but before that, what about the turbo itself? Basic turbochargers are fairly straightforward in that they comprise castings, nuts, bolts and studs to hold everything together, a spindle running in bearings through the turbo casings, with the turbine on the hot end and compressor wheel on the other. There could be nothing more to it than that or there may be a wastegate mechanism incorporated into the casing. Simple, yes, and the temptation to have it apart on the bench and fit some new bits is great, but this is one that’s best left to the experts with the right equipment.
