  2. Boost controller - Wikipedia

    A 3-port solenoid-type boost controller A 4-port solenoid-type boost controller (used for a dual-port wastegate). The purpose of a boost controller is to reduce the boost pressure seen by the wastegate's reference port, in order to trick the wastegate into allowing higher boost pressures than it was designed for.

    Using a turbocharger spool valve to increase exhaust gas flow speed to the (twin-scroll) turbine; Using a butterfly valve to force exhaust gas through a smaller passage in the turbo inlet; Electric turbochargers [51] and hybrid turbochargers. A similar phenomenon that is often mistaken for turbo lag is the boost threshold. This is where the ...

    turbo/APC boost gauge in a Saab 900. Saab Full Pressure Turbo (FPT) models with this unit include the APC name displayed on a non-numeric boost pressure gauge in the instrument panel. Although knock sensors are common even on non-turbocharged and turbocharged engines today, Saab has continued to use the APC name prominently as a differentiating ...

  5. MAP sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAP_sensor

    This is commonly referred to as gauge pressure. Boost pressure is relative to absolute pressure - as one increases or decreases, so does the other. It is a one-to-one relationship with an offset of -100 kPa for boost pressure. Thus, a MAP sensor will always read 100 kPa more than a boost sensor measuring the same conditions.

    Boost gauge on a Ford Focus RS (left) 30 psi Boost gauge Top: Turbo/APC boost gauge in a Saab 900. A boost gauge [1] is a pressure gauge that indicates manifold air pressure or turbocharger or supercharger boost pressure [2] in an internal combustion engine. They are commonly mounted on the dashboard, on the driver's side pillar, or in a radio ...

  7. Wastegate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastegate

    The primary function of the wastegate is to regulate the maximum boost pressure in turbocharger systems, to protect the engine and the turbocharger. One advantage of installing a remote mount wastegate to a free-float (or non-wastegate) turbo includes an allowance for a smaller area over radius (A/R) turbine housing, resulting in less lag time ...
