Honda Turbochargers at Inner Auto: Excellent Quality at a Low Price

A turbo is an ingenious little design that harnesses the wasted kinetic energy we dump out through the exhaust system force more air into the engine. A turbo can be a simpler, more compact way to add power, especially for an aftermarket accessory. The basic turbo system comes with the turbo, exhaust manifold for turbo, waste gate, blow-off valve (bypass valve), lines for oil supply and return and the intercooler, which is optional. Your Honda's turbocharger is ultimately the most powerful of all forced induction systems. While turbo charging a Honda car motor increases the amount of air that can be flowed into it, it has a negative effect on how easily we can flow it back out again. This weakens positive pressure difference between these two fundamental sides of the engine, and causes both cam timing & exhaust system design to become extremely important to producing more power. An area of the turbo acts as an insulator from the exhaust heat to keep the intake air compressor side as cool as possible. Keeping the intake air cool increases power since more air molecules enter the cylinders at a given pressure. Yet in most current forms of racing where the rules do not prohibit the use of turbo or slap restrictions on their use, the turbo reigns supreme in terms of engine power output.
