Nissan’s variable-compression turbo (VC-Turbo) is a unique engine capable of variable compression adjustment. Unlike traditional engines, which have a fixed compression ratio, the VC-Turbo engine ...

We might be covering ground that's well trampled for many, but the static compression ratio of an engine is simple to understand: it's all the volume of a cylinder above the compression ring at Bottom ...

The World's First Production-Ready Variable Compression Engine Infiniti's has developed the first variable compression ratio ...

The compression ratio isn’t just a number: it’s one of the greatest determining factors in engine building. Compression ratio determines the type of fuel, how much boost, and has a significant ...

A gasoline piston engine that can dynamically change its compression ratio —that is, the amount by which the piston squeezes the fuel-air mixture in the cylinder—has long been a holy grail of engine ...

Diesel engines are different from gas engines in numerous ways, including their use of high compression ratios. Here's why ...

What is one of the most critical variables you can set when building an engine? That could be a long debate, but compression is certainly one of the main ones. It dictates not only how much power you ...

It's only teasing a bit of information for now, but it will be properly unveiled during this year's Paris Motor Show. Cars are Andrew's jam, as is strawberry. After spending years as a regular ol' car ...

As a concept, the internal combustion engine is as old as dirt. To our luck, the ICE is still relevant nowadays thanks to engineering developments such as direct injection, cylinder deactivation, stop ...

Pretty simple question actually (or so my ignorant mind thinks): At what compression ratio would an engine benefit from higher octane fuel? The Focus I drive is just over 10:1, and I've heard some say ...

Infiniti introduced the world's first variable compression-ratio engine, a technology it claims to have been working on for two decades, at the 2017 Los Angeles Auto Show. A variable compression-ratio ...

Hello Honda Tuning. I have a fully built, turbocharged D16Z6 in a '95 Civic EX coupe. It's not tuned yet, but the goal is 350 whp on pump gas. I have two specific questions that I'm hoping you can ...
