Suitable for MAN Trucks
The MAN 51091017244 is a turbocharger designed to increase an engine's power and efficiency by forcing more air into the combustion chamber. It is commonly used in diesel engines to improve performance and reduce emissions. This turbocharger, manufactured in Germany, is designed for durability and responsiveness, providing enhanced engine power and torque across a wider RPM range. It features precision engineering for optimal airflow and reduced turbo lag. The dimensions of this unit are 240 x 264 x 270 mm.
Basically, a turbocharger forces more air into your engine. Normally, an engine sucks in air, but a turbo uses exhaust gases – stuff that would normally just go out the tailpipe – to spin a turbine. That turbine then spins a compressor, and that compressor pumps a lot more air into the engine cylinders. Think of it like giving your engine extra breaths. It’s a pretty ingenious system.
A turbo’s main job is to boost engine power and efficiency without increasing engine size. You'll find them on both gasoline and diesel engines, though they work a bit differently depending on the fuel type. On a gasoline engine, it gives you more horsepower and torque, especially when you need it, like when accelerating or going uphill. On a diesel, it helps with fuel efficiency and also gives you that strong low – end pulling power. It’s really all about getting more out of each combustion cycle.
Without a working turbo, you'll notice if you have one, your engine will feel seriously underpowered. It’ll struggle to accelerate, and you might see a drop in fuel economy. The turbo effectively acts like a shield against power loss, maintaining performance as the engine ages. They’re pretty reliable these days, but they do eventually wear out. If you're losing power or notice excessive smoke, that's a good sign it might be failing. We carry a good range of turbochargers, and Fixparts Online is always a good place to start looking for the right one for your vehicle – you can usually find what you need pretty quickly there.
