+Engineering Explained Can you please do a video on how a Oil Catch Can works in Turbo, twin turbo, naturally aspirated, petrol and diesel cars please??
I think you are the only one that can do a good job on this.......please from a loyal subscriber
Thank you guys for agreeing, I hope you can ask as well because the content for Oil Catch Can's on youtube and elsewhere is pretty poor. I've asked him a few times and have been ignored, but I do think out of anyone out there he would do a thorough explanation on his white board
I got a good question that I kinda googled, but I'm not sure I well understood the facts. What temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure will my car produce the best power? If I'm correct, I would have to be at see level, no clouds and during the night when the temperature is lower (let's say at -10 degree Celsius, winter time here in Canada). Could it make more power than the factories specs? Maybe a video to cover the question? For your information, I drive a 2011 Subaru Legacy 2.5.
I personally think you're the best reviewer on youtube. You explain things superbly and you give us "potential" consumers a very good unbiased opinion of the cars functionality. These newer cars can be confusing to look at under the hood and you do an outstanding job explaining the engineering pun intended. Thank you for your work. I am looking for a new car and have less than $30,000 to spend. I have been torn between a used Pontiac G8, new Mustang Ecoboost or V6, new Scion FRS, new Hyundai Genesis Coupe, wait for the new Camaro Turbo, or a new Subaru WRX. What do you recommend to a handling and power junky? If you have any other cars that you recommend then def let me know. I've owned a 2000 Celica GTS that I wrecked last year and am looking for something funner to replace it. I got whooped by a Pontiac Grand am before and I never want that to happen again lol
+Vimesh Patel The WRX is remarkably fun, and properly quick for how much power it has. The FRS/BRZ are super fun (if manual) but not that quick. I haven't driven the EcoBoost stang or Genesis Coupe unfortunately, but I believe they are both heavier than the WRX, and significantly heavier than the FRS/BRZ. I'll be driving a GTI shortly, which I'm curious about as well. The WRX was super fun and actually had solid gas mileage.
Hi man, just a vid suggestion, it'd be great if you explained the tyre contact surface vs. vehicle weight ratio, and at which speeds would aquaplaning happen in different ratios. Thanks :D
I love the vids your putting out but I have a hot topic that I think would do good. "Charcoal Air Filter Removal" I have the 2017 crosstrek prem and I'm on the fence if I should remove it. Will I get better mpg, or HP? Any draw backs?
Hi, I was wondering if you could do a video on TJI vs.HCCI, and if you would be able to work out what MPG a 2016/17 F1 car would get on an EPA window sticker for city and highway?
Hey Jason
Is it possible to explain why car A/C's won't come on in low temperatures
but they still manage to de-mist my windows correctly (mind blown)
Really enjoy your channel. Pretty sure I have seen every video and have had many car related arguments settled because of your work.
Recently a friend and I have been discussing weight savings in wheels. I am curious about the actual performance benefit (braking, acceleration, efficiency) or harm by using a lighter or heavier wheel. And just for the sake of pure curiosity, how many miles would it take to recoup the cost of a $1000 set of wheels that save me %25 of the weight? I am just not sure where to begin on that math.
Anyway, keep up the good work!
Request: Could you plz post a video explaining why/how manufacturers with 4-cylinder V shaped engines can generate more HP than other 4-cylinder engines ? I mean with no modifications (ie. Turbo or Super-charger).
My question might sound weird :) I am always wondering is it the shape or setup and why don't they max them out. Comparing an Accord(2.4) with a Mazda 6(2.5) for example, they both 4Cyl-V and have different HP.
I know you're more about cars, but is there any chance you could talk about the Kawasaki Ninja H2's supercharger system? like how it's so compact and why the performance gain is so immense?
