What is the equivalent displacement of a 1.4t engine?
1 Answers
1.4t is equivalent to a naturally aspirated engine with a displacement of 1.8-2.0L. In fact, a 1.4t engine is a 1.4L naturally aspirated car engine equipped with a turbocharging device. The displacement is still calculated as 1.4L, but the driving force becomes stronger. Generally, the driving force of a turbocharged engine can reach the performance of a naturally aspirated car engine with about 1.3 to 1.5 times its displacement. The 't' refers to a turbocharged engine. The main function of turbocharging is to increase the engine's air intake, thereby improving the engine's power and torque, making the car more powerful. After installing a turbocharger, the maximum power of an engine can increase by 40% or even more compared to when it is not equipped with a turbocharger. This means that the same engine can output greater power after being turbocharged. In terms of performance, a 1.4T engine may have significant differences in power and torque output depending on different tuning. The tuning performance is roughly similar to that of a 2.0 naturally aspirated engine.
