What does 1.5L naturally aspirated engine equate to in turbocharged terms?
1 Answers
1.5L naturally aspirated engine is equivalent to 1T. Below is an introduction to turbocharging: The main function of turbocharging is to increase the engine's air intake, thereby enhancing the engine's power and torque, making the car more powerful. After installing a turbocharger, an engine's maximum power can increase by 40% or more compared to when it is not equipped with one. A 1.4T car's power may be equivalent to that of a 2.0L naturally aspirated car. A turbocharger is essentially an air compressor that increases the engine's air intake by compressing air. It utilizes the inertial force of the exhaust gases expelled by the engine to drive the turbine in the turbine chamber, which in turn drives the coaxial impeller. The impeller then pressurizes the air delivered through the air filter pipeline, forcing it into the cylinders under increased pressure.
