Ford Mustang Cobra Jet Concept
In order to stay ahead of competition, Ford Racing has decided to innovate in the car using new technologies. During the past four years the success of Cobra Jet was based on their supercharged engines: the 5.4-liter V8 began a series that ended with the 5.0-liter V8 used in 2011.
The system provides greater power supercharger instanstaneamente but high acceleration to decrease its efficiency. To avoid this it was decided to install a twin-turbo system that uses thermal and kinetic energy of the exhaust to increase engine power. To avoid the biggest problem with the turbocharged, the lag (time lag between pressing the accelerator and when you can see the pressure increase in the feed), were installed smaller turbos possible, able to give the flow necessary.
