Abstract:
A turbocharger with a turbine (10) having a turbine wheel (12) in a turbine housing (14) with an associated manifold (24) having individual ports (22) corresponding to unobstructed passageways (26) from each cylinder of an engine. The ports (22) are substantially equally spaced around a face of the turbine wheel (12) to preserve benefits of pulses without interference.
