Background: A previous post from the beginning of June described a bench test of the IS20 turbocharger turbine housing to measure the airflow rate through that turbocharger for a future comparison with a Shuenk IS48 turbine wheel using a splitter design. The alternate turbine wheel was delivered, and after removing the IS48 turbocharger from the […]

Background: The belief that a bicooler configuration is associated with a slower rate of boost pressure rise is logical from the standpoint of having a larger volume to pressurize, but past comparisons have shown that the time difference to pressurize the different volumes is negligible. Despite having tested the products and documented the evidence to
