Basic description of parts and processes that work together to produce Negative Pressure Supercharging

For more details see Combination of parts and processes that work together to produce NPS

Tri-Y Headers with small short pipes and megaphone collector produce Compressed High Velocity Exhaust Gas

Substantially reduces the pressure (increases vacuum) in the cylinder during the exhaust stroke

Pulls a larger volume of air into the cylinder during the early part of the intake stroke by the lower pressure (higher vacuum) trapped in the combustion chamber during the overlap period with synchronised valve timing

Produces a homogenous intake charge as a result of the violent air turbulence produced by the much greater difference in pressure between the cylinder and atmosphere

Camshaft with Synchronised Valve Timing, high intake lift and low exhaust lift

Traps the lower pressure (higher vacuum) in the cylinder at the end of the exhaust stroke by closing the exhaust valve early and using less overlap duration and exhaust valve lift

Moves the lower pressure (higher vacuum) to the intake stroke during the overlap period by synchronising the exhaust valve closing, overlap duration and exhaust valve lift events

Traps the larger volume of air pulled into the cylinder during the intake stroke by closing the intake valve early

Prevents the lower pressure (higher vacuum) from pulling the intake charge into the exhaust system during the overlap period

Hot Air Induction housing

Increases the temperature of the homogenous intake charge

Uses hot air to increase the speed of combustion to just BEFORE the point of self ignition

Vapourises the liquid fuel into a gas to reduce fuel consumption

Produces a faster cleaner burn and more combustion pressure (torque)

Cold Cooling System

Reduces the water temperature to maintain the optimum combustion temperature and burn rate with the hotter and faster burn produced by the homogenous hot intake charge

Allows the homogenous hot intake charge to produce a faster cleaner burn and more combustion pressure (torque) than a cold intake charge

Allows the engine to run HOT with cold water and hot air induction...ONLY the water passages run cold

Special Ignition Timing

Uses a special advance curve to increase combustion pressure (torque) and prevent the hotter and faster burn produced by the homogenous hot intake charge from igniting prematurely
