No it will pump more air in the same displacement..

A more accurate statement would be

It will displace more air in the same size engine than that of a non turboed car.


Look this is going to start a whole argument of 5 people against me about how this shit works, so Im going to drop it and let the original poster learn what he learns from what was already posted..

You are right, I worded my explanation half-assed.

Simply, the amount of air has nothing to do with figuring a motor's displacement.

That is displacment according to SAE. Yes, there is some irrelevent blurb about amount of air displaced in 1 combustion cycle, but in order for a manufacturer to lable an engine of a certain displacement, all they need to do is satisfy that formula. forced induction or not.

Go test it out, if you are actually intellegent enough to plug numbers into the formula.

Ever consider that it's 5 people against you because you are incorrect?

And yes, I am certainly much much smarter then you.
