What are the disadvantages of a supercharged Prado?
1 Answers
The disadvantages of a supercharged Prado include reduced reliability, issues with sudden acceleration, and fuel consumption problems. Below is a more detailed introduction: Reduced reliability: Any vehicle model that undergoes modifications for mechanical supercharging or turbocharging will achieve significant performance improvements, but the downside is the same—reduced reliability. Issues with sudden acceleration: Some commonly modified models, such as the Mazda 6 with added turbocharging in the past, may perform fine at slow speeds. However, sudden acceleration can lead to various problems, such as the pressure relief valve failing to release pressure in time, causing intake tract explosions, or insufficient cooling after supercharging, resulting in decreased power. Fuel consumption problems: Of course, there are also fuel consumption issues. However, given the increased power from turbocharging, the additional fuel consumption is generally considered worthwhile.
