What Is Wrong About the Turbo
What Is Wrong About the Turbo
At How Many Revolutions Does the Turbo Start?
-The Turbo does not start until it reaches 1500-2000 revolutions.
This information is completely false. The Turbo always works. When you turn the ignition, the turbo starts after the exhaust gas starts to be produced and the turbine rotates. Only the exhaust gas will not reach its full pressure until it is produced correctly and brought to a certain speed when you press the gas. However, even if the vehicle is running at idle, it will continue to produce a small amount of pressure.
Why does the turbo break down?
-Turbos break down fast and turbos are forced to land when they turn over 100 thousand kilometers.
This is also a known misinformation by drivers. It only requires turbo maintenance. When we look at it, the engines turn over in the 6-7 thousand band, while the turbos can turn over 200-300 thousand revolutions. For this reason, he needs maintenance on his turbos. The lubrication of the turbo is the most important thing here. If you do not take good care of your vehicle, if you do not perform oil and other maintenance when necessary, your turbo will wear out quickly because it uses the engine's oil. Moreover, most turbos use engine water, which is cooling water. If you do not change this in time, the turbo will not cool down well and some damage will occur.
-The fact that the turbo burns little fuel is also a well-known misconception.
The fact is that this is a more efficient turbo. But going to shrink in volume allows it to burn less. That is, when you buy a smaller volume engine, it burns even less. When you turbo-charge the same engine, it is not possible to burn less, the power of the engine increases.
-Since there is more torque in turbo vehicles, the rumor ‘press the gas all the way out’ is also false when the ramps are at low revs.
When you press the gas at low rpm, the turbo pressure will increase. But the engine speed will not rise properly. Due to this increased pressure, a lot of incoming oxygen, unwanted burns will occur. There will also be a decrease in performance. In turbo vehicles, it would be a better solution to continue driving by downshifting and increasing the speed when there is a strain rather than doing this.
-After using the vehicle, it is necessary to wait 5-6 minutes for the turbo to cool down.
It is important to cool the turbo. This is especially true for stock vehicles. The reason for this is that it is better to put turbo cooling systems on modified vehicles and they may have to wait longer when they stop. But in everyday vehicles, if you park your car after parking and wait for an estimated 30 seconds, it will be enough for the turbo to cool down.
-Although it is thought that it is so easy to install a turbo on an atmospheric vehicle to get faster, it is not so.
It is a process that requires many details and settings. It will be exhausting both in terms of time and in terms of cost. It is not a process that will happen with the direct installation of the turbo or with minor adjustments. It is necessary to change all the parts inside the engine, not just by adding a turbo or intercooler. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find such parts in our country from foreign currency. Although it is found, the cost is very high.
