Boost pressure and air speeds in the inlet ducting post-compressor increase as the turbo speed increases and rams that air mix in – fine. When the throttle is lifted, however, the throttle valve snaps shut and leaves this charge air with nowhere to go (ie. into the engine for combustion) .As a result the intake …
Air to Air (ATA) Positioning of ATA intercoolers can be divided into two main category’s. Those being front mount and top mount. The following photos illustrate the possible positions that ATA intercoolers can be placed in an ET or EXA and also give some ideas on intercooler piping routes. Positioning and piping of Top Mount …
Intercooling your E15ET engine The installation of an intercooler to your e15et engine is one of the most important performance modifications you can carry out. Intercooling lowers the temperature of the intake air, reduces the danger of detonation, and increases the efficiency of fuel/air burn which results in better power production. As standard, the e15et …
Being a Nissan engine, we are lucky to have in my opinion the widest range of turbo-chargers available, that being the popular Garrett brand. And at the same time, being a small capacity engine it allows us to ‘upgrade’ to a turbo that may be considered undersized by other higher capacity Nissan owners. T2/T02 Of …
While the concept of turbo-changeovers is usually presented to address the forced-induction craving of most force-fed Pulsar drivers, there are other options available which are less-often considered. This is where supercharging gets its fifteen minutes of fame. There has been precedent for an E15ET Pulsar being ram-fed with a very non-standard and non-Nissan component; a …
Boost pressure alterations are by far considered the most cost effective modification in almost any turbo car. There are issues to consider when contemplating an increase in boost pressure in an E15ET. Detonation As we (should) know, as the pressure of the fuel/air mix rises, the volatility of this mix increases concordantly. This is the …
Story by Martin Donnon and Hot 4’s Magazine Original Scans courtesy of Damien D. It’s a well known fact. Anyone who doesn’t agree that it’s incredibly cheap and easy to extract additional power from turbo cars has rocks in their head. The problem is, exactly how do you do it? There are numerous ways of …
