Brake specific fuel consumption (the amount of fuel consumed per unit of power) of a turbo is far better than any NA engine, that's why they rule the LeMans 24hr
In other words Turbos have better fuel economy than NA engines that produce the same amount of power.
Yes. For the same power output, the forced induction route will be more fuel efficient.
I should've been more specific...
This is one of those rude unfounded generalisations that deserves to be eliminate from every living mind!pjay wrote:i heard a generalisation somewhere (dont remember where):
turbo = 200% efficiency
s/c = 90%
supercharger takes power to make power, but i prefer that whine anyday... instant boost ftw
