Volvo is in deep shit, the drive-e range of engine timing belt driven. I guess the slipping that "makes" it more efficient??
If wastegate is open, where can build up enough exhaust pressure for the turbocharger to reach surge line?
Unless, it's a new secret proprietary invention of electric motor driven turbocharger that has a specially made on/off switch. But then, if that's the case, why the heck need exhaust driven turbine and wastegate? Normal exhaust ducting kan dah cukup?
Wakau, tiba-tiba "activated", the car "activated" "warp speed" to send you (and maybe some innocent souls) to heaven from the corresponding epic torque steer and loss of traction.
you can build some pressure, sikit je i guess....
a slightly less angular version of dares graph can be created, wastegate bukak till hits those rpm's then tutup suddenly when it hits activation...... you can build 'some' boost but god... that would be an utterly utterly stupidly system... max boost would probably have to be be set so low.... and off 'activation' you will still be forced to spin the stupid turbine regardless...
basically its a design so dumb, the campro iafm (which imo is also in so many ways pretty silly) will probably perform miles better than it. we should cukur, nobody has ever hired him to design an engine.
