Turbocharger Efficiency

Turbocharger efficiency refers to how effectively it uses the energy from exhaust gases to boost engine power. It measures how well the turbo converts exhaust flow into increased air intake without wasting excessive energy. High efficiency means more of the exhaust energy is used to compress air, improving engine performance and fuel economy. Conversely, lower efficiency indicates energy loss, leading to less boost and potential turbine or compressor heat issues. Overall, a more efficient turbocharger helps the engine produce more power with less fuel and reduced emissions, making it a crucial component for optimal engine performance.
