Nitrous oxide and turbos, a volatile duo or an unnecessary gaseous combination?

 

Racing enthusiasts agree that whether you're talking about turbochargers, superchargers or nitrous oxide; it's all about setup and proper tuning. The purpose of these is to improve upon the size-to-output efficiency of an engine by solving one of its cardinal limitations. Nitrous oxide as a stand-alone method of forced induction is arguably more popular albeit just as volatile. NOS makes slow cars quicker… attracting more and more amateurs to the street racing scene with a modest cost. The internal combustion with a lean air/ fuel mixture leads to excessive cylinder pressure. The turbocharger makes it possible to add more fuel to increase engine out put, thus increases the pressure at the point where air is entering the cylinder, and the amount of air brought into the cylinder is largely a function of time and pressure. As pressure increases more air is drawn in. In addition, the intake pressure can be controlled to bleed-off excess boost from the turbocharger. Superchargers operate in the same fashion as a turbo; however, the energy to spin the compressor is taken from the rotating output energy of the engine's crankshaft as opposed to exhaust gas. It converts some of the thermal energy from the exhaust gas, these are actually heat engines. What do we have to offer you at PSI?
