Turbocharger (1) Air inlet (2) Compressor housing (3) Compressor wheel (4) Bearing (5) Oil Inlet port (6) Bearing (7) Turbine housing (8) Turbine wheel (9) Exhaust outlet (10) Oil outlet port (11) Exhaust inletThe turbocharger is installed on the center section of the exhaust manifold. All the exhaust gases from the engine go through the turbocharger. The compressor side of the turbocharger is connected to the aftercooler by pipe.The exhaust gases go into turbine housing (7) through exhaust inlet (11). The exhaust gases then push the blades of turbine wheel (8). The turbine wheel is connected by a shaft to compressor wheel (3) .Clean air from the air cleaners is pulled through compressor housing air inlet (1) by the rotation of compressor wheel (3). The action of the compressor wheel blades causes a compression of the inlet air. This compression gives the engine more power by allowing the engine to burn more air and more fuel during combustion.When the load on the engine increases, more fuel is injected into the cylinders. The combustion of this additional fuel produces more exhaust gases. The additional exhaust gases cause the turbine and the compressor wheels of the turbocharger to turn faster. As the compressor wheel turns faster, more air is forced into the cylinders. The increased flow of air gives the engine more power by allowing the engine to burn the additional fuel with greater efficiency.

Turbocharger With Waste Gate (12) Actuating lever (13) Canister (14) Line (boost pressure)When the engine is operating under conditions of low boost, a spring pushes on a diaphragm in canister (13). This action moves actuating lever (12) in order to close the valve of the waste gate. Closing the valve of the waste gate allows the turbocharger to operate at maximum performance.As the boost pressure through line (14) increases against the diaphragm in canister (13), the valve of the wastegate is opened. When the valve of the wastegate is opened, the rpm of the turbocharger is limited by bypassing a portion of the exhaust gases. The exhaust gases are routed through the wastegate which bypasses the turbine wheel of the turbocharger.Note: The turbocharger with a waste gate is preset at the factory and no adjustment can be made.

Turbocharger Oil Lines (15) Oil supply tube (16) Oil drain tubeBearings (4) and (6) for the turbocharger use engine oil under pressure for lubrication. The oil comes in through oil supply tube (15) to oil inlet port (5). The oil then goes through passages in the center section in order to lubricate the bearings. Oil from the turbocharger goes out through oil outlet port (10) in the bottom of the center section. The oil then goes back to the engine lubrication system through oil drain tube (16).
