  2. Wastegate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wastegate

    Inside the wastegate actuator, a spring acts to open the wastegate, and oil pressure acts to close the wastegate. On the oil output side of the wastegate actuator sits the density controller, an air-controlled oil valve which senses upper deck pressure and controls how fast oil can bleed from the wastegate actuator back to the engine. As the ...

  3. Boost controller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boost_controller

    A 3-port solenoid-type boost controller A 4-port solenoid-type boost controller (used for a dual-port wastegate). The purpose of a boost controller is to reduce the boost pressure seen by the wastegate's reference port, in order to trick the wastegate into allowing higher boost pressures than it was designed for.

  4. Variable-geometry turbocharger - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable-geometry_turbocharger

    This design has a lower flow rate compared to VNT types so a wastegate may be incorporated with this design. [5] VGTs may be controlled by a membrane vacuum actuator, electric servo, 3-phase electric actuation, hydraulic actuator, or pneumatic actuator using air brake pressure. Unlike fixed-geometry turbines, VGTs do not require a wastegate. [6]

  5. Blowoff valve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blowoff_valve

    A vacuum hose connected to the intake manifold downstream of the throttle provides a reference pressure for the blowoff valve.. When the throttle is open, the air pressure on both sides of the blowoff valve's piston is equal, therefore the spring holds the valve closed.

  6. Camless piston engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Camless_piston_engine

    A camless or free-valve piston engine is an engine that has poppet valves operated by means of electromagnetic, hydraulic, or pneumatic [1] actuators instead of conventional cams. Actuators can be used to both open and close valves, or to open valves closed by springs or other means.

  7. Subaru Impreza WRX STI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subaru_Impreza_WRX_STI

    Since the STI S206 is a Japanese Variant, it features a twin-scroll ball-bearing turbo, a newly revamped ECU, and upgraded exhaust system with that is more free flowing compared to the standard STI. While the suspension of the S206 came primarily off the regular STI platform, Subaru added a carbon fiber roof and flexible draw stiffener which ...

  8. Nissan VR engine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_VR_engine

    Compact twin direct-mount turbos with integrated exhaust manifold and electronic wastegate actuator; Twin water-to-air charge coolers with one or two water pumps for the 300 hp (224 kW) and 400 hp (298 kW) variants, respectively; Electronically controlled variable displacement oil pump; Intake: electronic Variable valve timing Control (VTC)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Wastegate

    And that this statement: "The wastegate will open further as the boost pressure pushes against the force of the spring in the wastegate actuator until equilibrium is obtained." be changed to: "The wastegate will open further as force resulting from the boost pressure counteracts the force of the spring in the wastegate actuator.
