Transverse Vs Longitudinal Engines: The Pros And Cons

The way in which an engine is orientated can have a huge influence on the rest of a car’s design. Should the car be rear-wheel drive? What size of engine is expected? Are there space issues that could influence which way the engine lies? All these questions have to be answered by the engineers responsible for the car, as the powertrain setup can have a large impact on how the car goes, handles and stops. Looking at front-engined cars, the two possible orientations are longitudinal and transverse, with each having its own benefits and drawbacks that can govern which is chosen for the car at hand. In-light of this engineering decision, here’s a basic guide to the features of each engine layout and which is best for different applications. Transverse engines Transverse engines are mounted perpendicularly to the direction of travel, lying horizontally within the engine bay. This is predominantly used in front-engined, front-wheel drive setups but has also been implemented i...

SUVs That Think They're Sports Cars

SUVs have long since evolved past the idea that they should be all about rugged off-road experiences requiring four-wheel drive, locking differentials, high ground clearance, and the sheer and utter ability to go absolutely anywhere. In many ways, the SUV category has become just as varied as the passenger car category. With this revelation, it comes as no surprise to find a number of SUVs on the market with driving dynamics chief among their palette of attributes. Yes, there really is a very credible slate of SUVs that think they're sports cars. Here's a list of them. Acura RDX Updated for the 2016 model year, the sporty Acura RDX luxury crossover SUV is an extremely competent handler with strong acceleration and a thoroughly modern look. Key features include Smart Cruise control, lane keeping assist, and remote engine start. The 3.5-liter V6 engine has been upgraded to produce 279 horsepower and 252 ft-lbs of torque (up from 273/251). A six-speed automatic is standard, a...

Blowoff Valve

A compressor bypass valve (CBV), also known as a pressure relief valve or diverter valve, is a manifold vacuum-actuated valve designed to release pressure in the intake system of a turbocharged vehicle when the throttle is lifted or closed. This air pressure is re-circulated back into the non-pressure end of the intake (before the turbo), but after the mass flow sensor. A blowoff valve, (sometimes "hooter valve" or BOV) performs the same task but releases the air into the atmosphere instead of recirculating it. This type of valve is typically an aftermarket modification. The blowoff action produces a range of distinctive hissing sounds, depending on the exit design. Some blowoff valves are sold with a trumpet-shaped exit that intentionally amplifies the sound. Some turbocharged vehicle owners can purchase a blowoff valve solely for the auditory effect even when the function is not required by normal engine operation. Motor sports governed by the FIA ​​have made it illegal t...
