Thrust Augmentation
BASIC OPERATION
Power Boosting

INLET MANIFOLD VACUUM
THE PARTIAL VACUUM TENDS TO WORK AGAINST THE
PISTON MOVEMENT MAKING IT HARDER FOR THEM TO PULL
AIR IN
AND THEREFORE, THE CYLINDER MAY NOT BE FULLY
CHARGED 100 WITH AIR/FUEL MIXTURE
IF AIR COULD BE FORCED INTO THE ENGINE, THERE
WOULD BE A GREATER VOLUME OF AIR/FUEL IN THE
CYLINDER
LETS SEE HOW
THEREFORE MORE POWER WOULD BE PRODUCED
SO HOW COULD THIS BE ACHIEVED?
BY USING AN AIR COMPRESSOR
