A:A turbocharger is a device installed on a vehicle's engine to improve overall efficiency and performance.

Q:Turbocharger vs Supercharger

A:The main difference between a turbocharger and a supercharger is the source of their energy. A turbocharger uses the vehicle's exhaust; two fans—the turbo fan and the compressor fan—spin from the exhaust. Instead, the supercharger is powered directly by the engine; the pulley drives the gears that spin the compressor fan.

Q:How does the turbocharger work?

A:The turbine consists of two halves connected together by a shaft. On the one hand, the hot exhaust gas spins a turbine, which is connected to another turbine, which draws in air and compresses it into the engine.

Q:Can I add a turbo to a non turbo car?

A:It can be installed, but requires rebuilding the entire turbocharger system, not just add one turbocharger.

Q:What brand turbos are there?

A:Garrett/BorgWarner/IHI/Mitsubishi/Toyota/Schwitzer/Holset/Komatsu etc.

Q:How can I identify my turbocharger?

A:Most turbochargers have identification numbers, or a combination of numbers and letters, stamped or etched directly into their nameplate.

Q:Turbocharger service Life

A:A turbocharger is a very reliable component that usually lasts as long as your vehicle's engine. Under the premise of proper maintenance, the service life of the turbocharger will exceed 300,000 kilometers.
