Why turbo normalizer?

That is my point.

Huh?

There does not appear to be any reason for anyone to
ever buy a turbo norm system.

Why not?

The engine runs just as hot/hard, etc at
altitude with a turbo norm vs. a regular turbo.

No, it does not. With a regular turbo, the engine would run even hotter and
harder at altitude.

The turbo norm
companies try to trick people into thinking that putting a turbo norm
on your engine will not wear your engine any more than normal asp
because you never get over 30".

Which "turbo norm company" has made that statement?

However, the argument appears to be
worthless, in truth a turbo norm wears out your engine just as fast as
a regular turbo.

No, it doesn't.

I find it bizarre that you are complaining about statements made regarding
turbo-normalization compared to normally aspirated, but keep insisting on
making (incorrect) comparisons between turbo-normalization and regular
turbo-charging. The two are not relevant to each other.

If there's a specific statement from a "turbo norm company" that you take
issue with, let's see that statement and we can talk about it. Until then,
your inability to express your own discontent with any sort of consistency
makes it hard to even understand what your complaint is, never mind help you
understand what's wrong about it (assuming there is something wrong with
it).

With which statement on that page do you take issue?

Note that they are talking about using inter-cooling and "after-cooling"
(not sure what that is). For sure, inter-cooling can do a lot to address
the issue of higher operating temperatures, by counter-acting the
temperature rise that occurs due to compression.

Regardless, unless you are trying to say that you disagree with the entire
page, providing just the link really does very little to explain to us what
it is you have trouble with. I don't see anything obviously wrong with the
statements made on the page (though I can't comment on some of them, such as
the legalities of turbo-boosting the particular installations they are
talking about for example).

Simple really.

I could add a turbo normalizer to my engine while changing little
else.

If I added a turbocharger, I'd have to put in lower compression
pistons, but depending on the STC could get more HP.

IOW, you can basically add the turbonormalizer to almost any engine,
but you can't do that with a turbocharger. If you limit the boost of
the turbocharger you have just turned it into a turbonormalizer.
