The SL 600 has V12 Bi Turbo and not a naturally-aspirated V12 | |

Coz I'm not. Yes, both will have a grand total of 2 turbos, however there might be a difference in the configuration? I'm not sure what exactly that difference is, and whether it is a difference that is denoted in standard classification or whether each brand / marketing team just throws around whichever term they feel like using? However, some possible differences could be : 1) Two identically sized turbos vs one small (for a quick spool-up) and one larger (for more higher rpm boost) 2) One turbo per bank of cylinders (eg. on a V6) vs both turbos on a single bank (I6) And yes -- review of all your cars please!! Especially pictures! cya R | |

Its one same thing. The Twin itself means the Bi, there's no any reason different things to be called with one name. The names we're looking for are Parallel(twin- or biturbo) and Sequential(twin- or biturbo). This is explaining the difference in the working of the two types of turbocharging. And what if its quad-turbo? How the four turbos are going to be situated? You would say in the twin-turbo or bi-turbo way? That even doesn't sound well. Its gonna be parallel or sequential... | |
