        Question 19 doesn't have a correct answer.

        What's the correct order?
        Intake, Power, Compression, Exhaust
        Power, Exhaust, Intake, Compression
        Exhaust, Power, Intake, Compression
        Intake, Compression, Exhaust, Power

        The correct answer is Intake, Compression, Power, Exhaust. 😮

              correct me if I'm wrong but I dont think question 20 has the correct answer.

              1. Again, correct order. IC=intercooler, CC=combustion chamber, TC=turbocharger, UP=up-pipe, DP=down-pipe
                Filter, IC, TC, CC, UP, TC, DP, exhaust
                Filter, TC, CC, IC, DP, UP, exhaust
                Filter, TC, UP, IC, CC, DP, TC, exhaust
                Filter, TC, IC, CC, UP, TC, DP, exhaust

              Shouldn't it be...
              filter, TC, UP, IC, CC, TC, DP, exhaust?

                Gran Turismorator
                You scored -17%

                You are a respectable tuner. You probably subscribe to one or more tuner magazines and know, quite a bit about your car and/or racing in general. Either that or you play a shitload of GT3. At any rate, you recognize the difference between a wastegate and a blow-off valve. In time, and with practice, you may attain "Racer X" status since it is supposed that you are relatively new to tuning and still have much to learn. Keep, working, and thank the maker that you're not a ricer.

                not bad for a muscle tuner

                Hey Tina come get some hamm

                  No, there is a correct answer, you have to think of it in terms of a cycle. You can really "start" anywhere in the sequence. Its the follow order that matters.

                  They call me, old man...

                    If you think of it logically, the engine can't start without the intake cycle being first. Nobody teaches the 4 cycle engine design any other way because it's the basis of everything.

                      -22% Not bad I guess.

                      My probe is fast. How fast? Line up next to me at the track and find out.
                      I can pull my probe faster than most ricers can race. haha

                                Up-pipe as they are referring to is is the same as the manifold on a 4 cylinder or the sum of the two banks on a v type motor (V6 or V8, not VTEC).

                                Correct order = Filter, TC, IC, CC, UP, TC, DP, exhaust

                                Intake air through the filter on the cold side of the turbocharger where it is pushed through the compressor. Then it enters the intercooler to be cooled before entering the combustion chamber. It is then burned and expelled through the manifold into the up-pipe (collector) and goes through the hot side of the turbo which drives the compressor. Gases then go through the downpipe, which is connected to the exhaust or in many cases on modified turbo cars the atmosphere.

                                BTW - 22%
