Introduction In the world of internal combustion engines, turbochargers have become a popular method of increasing power and efficiency. This gas compressor, often referred to simply as a turbo, is a form of forced induction that forces air into the engine, resulting in more power for a given displacement. In this blog, we will explore the inner workings of turbochargers and their impact on engine performance. The Components of a Turbocharger At its most basic level, a turbocharger consists of three major components: the turbine, the compressor, and the bearing system that supports the turbine shaft connecting the turbine and compressor wheels. The turbine is located on the hot side of the turbocharger and is bolted onto the engine's exhaust manifold. As the engine runs, the exhaust gases pass through the turbine, spinning a fan called the turbine wheel. This spinning motion converts heat and pressure into rotational force, which in turn spins the compressor wheel. The compres
Parking your Vehicle When you learn to drive a car, parking a vehicle is the most difficult and probably the most important thing. If you don't know how to park your vehicle, it will not only irritate the drivers around you, but also lead to your vehicle meeting a potential mishap. Many of the times, there have been cases when your vehicle begins to slide down the pathway where you park when the area is elevated. Moreover, one can also face an unfortunate situation if you park in the wrong area. What would that unfortunate situation be? Your vehicle's wheel getting clamped, as a punishment. How does the wheel get clamped? The answer is a wheel clamp. What is a Wheel Clamp? As the name suggests, it is a device which is used to prevent a vehicle from moving. It's also called a wheel boot, parking boot or a Denver boot. The Denver boot was named after the city of Denver, Colorado. It was the first county, which used them to force the people of the cit
