    does anyone know how to calculate the volumetric efficiency of a L36, an L67, a turbocharged L67 and a twincharged L67? I know there is a formula for it, but even if I knew what the formula was, it would probably be beyond my simple algebra education.

    I'm curious about calculating the volumetric efficiency of a 3800, a 3800 that is supercharged and a 3800 that is both supercharged and turbocharged? I got in an argument with a guy on facebook about twincharging and now I'm curious about the science behind the efficiency/inefficiency of the above mentioned engine combinations.

    my theory is that the turbocharged 3800 will have more volumetric efficiency
