T stands for Turbo, which means turbocharging. A turbocharger is essentially an air compressor that utilizes the exhaust gases from the engine as power to drive the turbine in the turbine housing (located in the exhaust passage). The turbine, in turn, drives the coaxial impeller (located in the intake passage), which compresses the fresh air delivered by the air filter pipeline and then sends it into the cylinders. Expansion: When the engine speed increases, the exhaust gas discharge speed and turbine speed also increase simultaneously, thereby enhancing the degree of air compression. Consequently, the engine's air intake increases accordingly, allowing for an increase in the engine's output power. The greatest advantage of turbocharging is that it can significantly boost the engine's power without increasing the engine displacement.
