[QUOTE="SilverBullet, post: 713844, member: 11244"] Nice diagram bro! Btw, the diagram is a bit unclear on what drives the turbo (turbine)? The hot exhaust gas. The turbine is connected to the compressor via a shaft, when the turbine spins, the compressor then spins and compresses the air from the intake. (I stand corrected, but hopefully this is still valid from what I've learned in my final year 10+ years ago) [URL="http://s736.photobucket.com/user/e_zacht/media/Turbochargers.gif.html"][IMG]http://i736.photobucket.com/albums/xx1/e_zacht/Turbochargers.gif[/IMG][/URL] Sorry my last sentence was meant to say: Cooler exhaust gas ---> Less heat transferred to the turbocharger while spinning the turbine ---> Less heat transferred to the oil while cooling the turbos ---> Lower oil temp Anyway heat is very subjective, the exhaust gases passing through the turbine section of the turbocharger can vary from 450°C to as high as 1000°C in extreme conditions.
