Whats all this stuff about oil pumps and cooling water? Are they really necessary?
A. The turbo charger needs oil for it’s bearings and water passing through it to prevent it from overheating. On a car the oil comes from the engine lubrication system and the water comes from the engine cooling system. Off the car you will need to provide them somehow. This adds to the complexity of the engine, and can turn it into a real plumbers nightmare, but it’s very necessary.
