Is Turbocharger Cleaning Necessary?

[JosiahAnn]

Turbocharger cleaning is necessary. Below are the specific details about turbochargers: Principle: A turbocharger utilizes the exhaust gases produced by the engine to drive the turbine in the exhaust pipe, which in turn rotates the turbine in the intake pipe, providing indirect boost without consuming the engine's power. Development History: The turbocharger (Turbocharger) was invented by Swiss engineer Alfred Büchi, who filed the patent in 1905. Initially, it was mainly used in aircraft and tank engines. It wasn't until 1961 that General Motors experimentally installed turbochargers in some of its vehicle models. The 1970s marked a turning point for turbochargers, with the introduction of the Porsche 911 equipped with a turbocharged engine. However, it was the Swedish automaker SAAB that truly revitalized turbocharger technology, with the 1977 SAAB 99 model spreading the technology more widely. At that time, turbochargers were limited to gasoline engines in small cars. By the mid-1980s, truck manufacturers in Europe and America began applying turbocharger technology to their diesel engines, while domestically produced vehicles only started adopting turbocharged models in the past decade.
