Читать книгу Turbo: Real World High-Performance Turbocharger Systems - Jay K Miller - Страница 23

Performance enthusiasts typically have a desire to know and understand everything they can about the modifications they make to their engine, and with good reason. The deeper the understanding, the better the application of the component and or system. Besides, everyone likes to bench race once and awhile. Everyone knows the words “turbo” and “turbocharger” (except for certain spell check software makers who still insist that “turbocharger” is two words!). But most do not understand the internal components. Understanding the components and how they work together helps you develop a “feel” for turbos and aids in the service, communication, troubleshooting, and diagnosing of turbo failures. Imagine how successful you would be at hot-rodding your engine if you didn’t understand engine internals.
