Turbocharger's. Enngines. Inline. Horizontal opposed. Mullti cylinder inline engine. An inline engine is one where the pistons are arranged in a line next to each other.
This is probably the most common design, but it can take up a great deal of space because of the length of the cylinder block needed to hold the pistons. The inline unit is restricted by the number of cylinders it can use. Typically this would be four cylinders transversely mounted and six cylinders inline (rear wheel drive). Extending the cylinders above this number (even if room allowed) would result in more main bearings and journals supporting the crankshaft resulting in extra weight.disadvantages This type of engine uses low build cost during production; it also benefits from having very good 'balance' characteristics, by design.
