Doesn't a turbo effectively increase the engine discplacement?

[Exodus_2pt0]

You know the old saying "There's no replacement for displacement."?

Well.... The replacement for displacement, is forced induction.

It doesn't increase displacement, but it might as well.

Does 'b*' stand for butthurt little bitch?

Yup

Doesn't the rule of same amount of air but smaller volume mean increase in pressure?

Yes

So if you're turbo is forcing in what a v8 would naturally be sucking in, you can say your displacement is the same (in a perfect world.)

No, you retard. No.

How old are you anyway?

WTF SRSLY!?

COME ON?!

WTF

I have read some retarded shit on r3v, I wouldn`t be surprised to read some shit like this on autoblog and other useless sites, but srsly?

[McGyver]

im not gonna lie, i love a good b*saint thread. and this one delivered.

the answer is really yes and no. no displacement stays the same, but yes you do suck in more air. more air means more fuel mans bigger bang. so you wont displace as much as a V8, but you probably suck just as hard ;)

Oh shiiii! Can-o-worms, OPEN SESAME!

If the amount of air moved changes your view of the displacement of an engine, then it would be equally valid to argue that cams change the displacement. It's best not to go down that route. It's not really descriptive or meaningful. FI is just a way of cramming more air in.

And for the record, I hate the way that BMW has decoupled the model numbers from displacement.

can't tell if OP is really stupid, or just trollin'

^this huge pet peeve

[Kershaw]

you mean to say the 335 does not have a 3.5 liter engine?

The concept of VE (Volumetric Efficiency) is pretty complex, but it never changes displacement. However, you can obtain over 100% VE...

[Kershaw]

what about over 9000 VE?

[Sagaris]

The VE is too damn high!
