Engine power output: turbo vs normally aspirated
Hello,
Few months ago I've opened a thread about the turbo auto waste-gate operation. Now I've up to something a little different. I'm sure that someone here will be able to shed light on this.
Speaking of Continental IO-520-R, I see that both turbo and non-turbo are rated 310bhp@2700RPM.
Now, if the turbo version outputs 310hp at 36.5MAP@2700RPM, what about the non-turbo? Is it able to output the same amount of power at 30MAP@2700RPM on takeoff?
If so, what's the difference in the mechanics of the engine? At this point, it seems that the difference is not only about the turbo per-se.
Thank you!
