  2. Turbo SIM - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbo_SIM

    The most common purpose of the Turbo SIM is to spoof the IMSI number and authentication key (Ki) supplied by the SIM card to the network, allowing phones locked to use only a particular network such as the Apple iPhone, [4] [5] [6] and more recently NTT DoCoMo and SoftBank phones, to be used on any mobile network with which they are technically ...

  3. SIM Application Toolkit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIM_Application_Toolkit

    SIM Application Toolkit (STK) is a standard of the GSM system which enables the subscriber identity module (SIM card) to initiate actions which can be used for various value-added services. [1] Similar standards exist for other network and card systems, with the USIM Application Toolkit (USAT) for USIMs used by newer-generation networks being ...

  4. Turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbocharger

    In an internal combustion engine, a turbocharger (also known as a turbo or a turbosupercharger) is a forced induction device that is powered by the flow of exhaust gases. It uses this energy to compress the intake air, forcing more air into the engine in order to produce more power for a given displacement .

  5. Covin (automobile) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covin_(automobile)

    The Covin is a kit car replica of the Porsche 911 Turbo, created by Tim Cook and Nick Vincent in the early 1980s. The name "Covin" originated from CO (Cook) and VIN (Vincent), resulting in the name "COVIN Performance Mouldings."

  6. Stratified charge engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stratified_charge_engine

    The spark plug and CVCC inlet were isolated from the main cylinder by a perforated metal plate. At ignition a series of flame fronts shot into the very lean main charge, through the perforations, ensuring complete ignition. In the Honda City Turbo such engines produced a high power-to-weight ratio at engine speeds of 7,000 rpm and above.

    Dating sim Tax Heaven 3000 , abbreviated as TH3K , is a Japanese-styled dating simulator game released by American art collective MSCHF which helps the player prepare their federal income taxes . The game was released in March 2023 in preparation for the 2022 tax deadline by making the player go on dates with the protagonist in which they input ...

  8. Antilag system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antilag_system

    The anti-lag system (ALS) is a method of reducing turbo lag or effective compression used on turbocharged engines to minimize turbo lag on racing or performance cars. It works by retarding the ignition timing and adding extra fuel (and sometimes air) to balance an inherent loss in combustion efficiency with increased pressure at the charging side of the turbo.

  9. Variable-geometry turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-geometry_turbocharger

    If the aspect ratio is too large, the turbo will fail to create boost at low speeds; if the aspect ratio is too small, the turbo will choke the engine at high speeds, leading to high exhaust manifold pressures, high pumping losses, and ultimately lower power output. By altering the geometry of the turbine housing as the engine accelerates, the ...
