Acronyms - Forced Induction (FI)
Man, after researching FI (Forced Induction, e.g., Turbos, Superchargers), I found the wealth of acronyms confusing for my non-initiated brain! So, without any pre-judgment, here are some I <think> I know so far:
6MT - 6 speed manual transmission 7AT - 7 speed automatic transmission A2A - Air To Air Intake System for superchargers BP - "Boosted Performance" (vendor) CAI - Cold Air Intake CARB - California Air Resources Board (for those in CA, a 'clean air' govt agency) CBE - Cat-Back Exhaust (Exhaust system AFTER the catalytic converter to the tailpipes) CMC - Clutch Master Cylinder CSC - Centrifugal SuperCharger or "Clutch Slave Cylinder" DD - Daily Driver (versus perhaps 'Track' or 'Drag Race' purposes) EH - Exhaust Headers FI - Forced Induction (either Turbo or Supercharger) OR "Fast Intentions" (aftermarket exhaust and other products) HFC - High Flow Catalytic Converter (Cats) LSD - Limited Slip Differential (? - uncertain) LTH - Long Tube Headers NA - Naturally Aspirated (non-turbo or non-supercharger) OEM - Original Equipment Manufacture PSI - Pounds Square Inch (referring to "boost" pressure) SC - Supercharger ST - Single Turbo TP - Test Pipes (No catalytic converter) TT - Twin Turbo VLSD - Viscous Limited Slip Differential VQ37VHR - Nissan 370Z engine model W2A - Water To Air Intake System for superchargers WHP - Wheel Horsepower (measured on a dyno at the wheels, not the crankshaft) Others? :icon17: |
What about $$$? Pretty self explanatory.
|
For CSC (with the 370z) it typically refers to clutch slave cylinder.
|
CMC = Clutch Master Cylinder
LTH = Long Tube Headers VLSD = Viscous Limited Slip Differential KOK = You have to find this one on your own. :rofl2: |
COMP = Turbocharger failure
B.P. = Broked1ck Performance |
