Practical Standalone Tuning: Tuning a Turbocharged Engine
Tuning a Turbocharged Engine
01.13
00:00 | - Through the main body of this course, we're going to demonstrate the HPA ten step tuning process on the Dyno using a naturally aspirated engine. |
00:08 | Now, if you're tuning a turbo-charged or super-charged engine, you may wonder how this is going to relate to your particular tuning task. |
00:16 | The reality is that regardless whether your engine is naturally aspirated or turbo-charged or super-charged, the way that it responds to both fuel and ignition timing is exactly the same. |
00:28 | It's just going to be that your air/fuel ratio targets as well as the amount of ignition timing you're going to use will vary compared to what we might expect in a naturally aspirated engine. |
00:40 | Often the way we actually use the Dyno to perform while tuning on a turbo-charged engine will be very similar to that we use on a naturally aspirated engine. |
00:49 | At the end of the course, we're going to go through some additions where you'll be able to see the ten step tuning process being applied on a turbo-charged engine, see what considerations we need to make, and how we may need to adapt the techniques shown for a naturally aspirated engine to suit a more powerful turbo charged engine. |
