Audi’s principle of downsizing: “ Forced induction replaces displacement ” One twin-scroll turbocharger per cylinder bank compresses the fresh air. Because there is no coolant flow at all through the engine, the oil reaches its operating temperature more quickly, shortening the phase in which high frictional losses occur.
