You can have a ~2.5 liter turbo 4 cyl making 400 ft-lbs and 400 hp with excellent driveability.
Oh, there are cars running 38 psi.. the difference is most of them are making 800+ hp and torque... (single turbo supras, for example.. or skylines or GNXs, etc...)Car = 15 psi
Truck = 38 psi
My 2.0L SuperCharged 4cly makes 275hp and 215ft-lbs and still gets 30mpg in the city.Turbos, after being kinda common in the 80s, ought to be making a successful comeback, with the much better capabilities of engine management.

Oh I know. I was just stating, my car is 15 (supercharger), while my truck gets 38 (turbo diesel). An efficient supercharger on my engine running about 20 psi would be scary.Oh, there are cars running 38 psi.. the difference is most of them are making 800+ hp and torque...

PM me if you want more.my car only boosts 15psi... Damn Super Charger.
I hope their making a comeback. We're busy as hell at work with just our wastegate and bov production, let alone the increase in turbo orders we have seen over the past 6-10 months.Turbos, after being kinda common in the 80s, ought to be making a successful comeback, with the much better capabilities of engine management.

I don't need you to leak it to me, I'm on the GM/Opel team at work on zeta platform. I spend a good amount of my time in GM Warren, (or Russelsheim or Melbourne or Shanghai..)
