About Turbocharging

When you want to make more power with a motor engine, you need increase the amount of air and fuel it can ingest. One way to do this is to add cylinders (big displacement, think Viper). One way is to increase the number of revolutions the motor completes per minute (high revs, think S2000). One way is to put more air in the cylinder than there is cylinder volume. Turbochargers work on this principal.
