I did search but its just too complicated for me to understand....

Just wondering if anyone can really sum it up in the simplest form of the english language how turbo chargers work. Like how it starts to spool up, what makes it spool up and such. Thanx a bunch in advance.

Alright this isnt very accurate I dont think, its like a turbocharger but it uses belts to power it, and usually has higher PSI boost at lower speed than higher speeds.
