Supercharger Introduction

A supercharger refers to an engine's intake air compressor, which comes in three forms: exhaust gas turbochargers, mechanical turbochargers, and electrically assisted turbochargers. Superchargers compress air, increasing the density of the engine's intake air, thereby boosting specific power. This improved mixture and combustion control also enhances combustion efficiency, saving fuel and reducing emissions. This represents a significant technological advancement in modern engines. The most commonly used type is the exhaust gas turbocharger. Below, we'll explain some of the relevant information about exhaust gas turbochargers.
