Comparison of Turbo’s and superchargers

Both work on the same principle they blow air into the engine under pressure. Both have a turbine which spins up depending on the engine speed and the higher the revs the greater the volume of air is forced into the engine. But there are some major differences between the two and which is best for your project?

Strengthening engines

We look at pistons, conrods and cranks and explain the methods used to design and build these and the impact they have on strengthening your engine.

Benefits of an intercooler

One problem with a Turbo is the close proximity of the cold intake charge with the hot exhaust temperatures within the turbo.

Don’t forget that a big air intake heat rise comes from the actual compression of air so even supercharged engine will benefit from an intercooler.

If you have ever felt the nozzle on a tyre pump you will realise that when air is compressed it gains heat.

Fuel Guide

We look at race fuels, street fuels, discuss lead, 2 stroke fuel and everything in between. If there is something you need to know about fuel and which one would be best for you then it’s in this article.
