What are the causes of insufficient turbocharging?
1 Answers
Insufficient power in a turbocharged vehicle may be due to air leakage caused by inadequate sealing of the boost pump or leaks in the intake piping. Another possibility is an issue with the turbocharger itself, such as insufficient lubrication or wear of the turbine, leading to suboptimal turbine speed and reduced boost pressure. Timely inspection and repair are recommended. The main functions of turbocharging are: 1. Increasing the engine's air intake: This enhances the engine's power and torque, making the vehicle more powerful. 2. Delivering greater power output: After installing a turbocharger, an engine's maximum power can increase by 40% or more compared to without the turbocharger. This means the same engine can output significantly more power after being turbocharged.
