So I’ve been researching turbos and I just found out a nasty little thing, some or all require oil or water cooling because of the really high rpms inside! I was all about bolting something onto my exhaust that forces more air into the combustion area. But active cooling? On an air cooled bike that would mean adding a water cooler or drilling two holes into the wet area of the engine


So wouldn’t supercharging be the way to go if I don’t want to drill on the wet engine area? Also I don’t see why not just use a 12v electric air compressor to force air in there? Those portable things can hit 100+ PSI is that not enough to make a massive difference? I’m fuzzy on how you’d go about converting psi to bars but I read that even 1 bar is enough for a turbo.
