What is the difference between high-power and low-power 2.0T engines?
1 Answers
The main difference between high-power and low-power 2.0T engines lies in the engine tuning, which results in different power and torque outputs. Additional details are as follows: 1. Function: The primary role of a turbocharger is to increase the engine's air intake, thereby enhancing its output power and torque. After installing a turbocharger, an engine's maximum power can increase by 40% or even more. This means the same engine can generate greater power after being turbocharged. 2. Advantages: The biggest advantage of turbocharging is that it can significantly boost an engine's power and torque without increasing its displacement. Turbocharged engines are not only more fuel-efficient but also reduce emissions of CO (carbon monoxide), CH (hydrocarbons), and PM (particulate matter). Turbocharged engines have a simple structure, are easy to install, and are widely adaptable in terms of technology—they can be applied from low to high speeds, from two-stroke to four-stroke engines, and from small to large cylinder diameters. Additionally, turbocharged engines produce relatively less noise compared to naturally aspirated engines.
