The purpose of a turbocharger is to supercharge the car's engine. The following guide shows how to install turbochargers.

The turbocharger is installed on the engine by mounting the hot side on the exhaust manifold, and depending on the position of the air duct, the turbo unit is referred to as a turbocharger. The turbocharger is the most common and used in engines with injection systems and has the advantage of limiting fuel losses on the walls of the fuel system.

The bearings of the rotating components of the turbocharger require a precise hole, sized in a grinding process necessary to provide the exact shape, cylindricity, and roughness.
