Re: TURBO!
In terms even the most inexperienced car person will understand...
TURBO = GOOD = FAST ps. to find out what a turbo is(or any other general question not specifically related to zcars), just do a search on yahoo. It will save you the effort of puting it up on the forum and waiting for an answer. |
Re: TURBO!

A turbo is a fan that spins off of the exhaust gas. The fan has another side to it that sucks in clean air through an intake tube. That air is "forced" into the engine. As the engine would only normall suck in 2.8 liters of air per revolution, it could also only burn a certain amount of fuel that 2.8 liters of oxygen can burn producting 145 horsepower or so. The turbo forces in MORE air than 2.8 liters and therefore the computer tells the fuel injectors to pump in more fuel. That extra fuel burns good because there is more oxygen inside then engine and therefore you get 200 horsepower!
As you can see, getting bigger turbos pumps in more air and you can get even more power out of the same physical size of an engine! Wohoo! What a breakthrough in technology! (horsepower numbers are just an example of stock 280zx and 280zx turbo engines) http://www.zipcon.net/bleach/pages/zcar/zlogo.jpg |

Check out www.turboclub.com It'll break everything down and explain the basic concepts behind turbo operation. After reading even my girlfriend grasped the concept : ) <P ID="edit"><FONT class="small"><EM>Edited by SpudZ on 09/27/02 10:44 AM.</EM></FONT></P>

Re: TURBO!
So when getting a turbo you can add an intake valve on the turbo to suck air. also will you have to upgrade your injectors

Re: TURBO!
That's it... I give up

Re: TURBO!
could you like... give up posting for a while? I think you should hold off on getting a datsun, and in the mean time get a little beater civic or a tercel, preferably in auto.
