: -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- From: Billy Crabs let me try to explain myself better, the amount of air that is drawn into an engine is in direct coralation to cylinder volume and the cam shafts "lift and duration" A valve can only stay open as long as the cam lobe holds the lifter up, therefore only allowing as much air/fuel as was scientificly formulated for the cylinder. for instance, lets say you have two guys who are going to breath in deep, now even if you are blowing an air hose in their faces, they are only going to be able to inhale as much as there lungs will hold. Now lets say they are inhaling pot and when they blow out its put into a "turbo", the turbine spins and sends the unused pot back to their lungs, but it's still only as much as they hold in their lungs(cylinder volume) Never been to the "Top Fuel" drags, have you? -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: N/A iQCVAwUBSEUDF5MoscYxZNI5AQEDcgP/WxU5b53z9gx9OUXZwfOgyS9fy7aNC887 3sjBnHYfEHL9gwfMzae/+ZQmMck7gRlYFFrXebWPVj16E4Am2WM+wBV1iljDfNMH ZnvjOpUv/iVf3ViMHYQf9VFreZ/4ZBblkNp5UnDfTBZu8IDsWNAxm5OEGOV6yHTi nl0UhGT6Y2g= =dD7/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- It would be fun to hear his description of how supercharging as opposed to turbocharging works. |
