How can turboing a Hummer give you better gas mileage and more HP?

Tuesday, December 30th, 2008
Goofy asked:


My old soccer coach has a Hummer. He was telling me how he was going to put a turbo on it. He said by doing this he would get more HP and better gas mileage. I asked him to explain how that is possible. He told me by slamming more air into the pistons the fuel burns cleaner and explodes better. So it increases efficiency with a boost of power. Is this possible?

Joanne M asked:


A very old rental, got a notice from the Gas company indicating the gas meter is too close to the water heater. This is the original blueprint of the house (properly permitted when it was built). Do we have to relocate the water heater? Or are we grandfather out of the current coding requirement? Don’t anything about construction. need help.

theAfternooner asked:


I bought my dream car - Jeep Wrangler - but it’s automatic. (Has no AC and it was cheaper than the standards on the lot.) I just happened to buy it the weekend gas prices skyrocketed to over $3.00 back in the spring. I love it, but it’s breaking me financially. Does anyone have any tips on how I can save $$$ driving this beast so I don’t have to give it up??

If they were in a similar vehicles class, would todays automatic transmission save more gas than a manual transmission? With similar driving habits.
