Turbocharger

Share definition Flag
A turbocharger or "turbo" is an air compressor used in a forced induction, internal combustion engine, that increases the density of the air going into the intake, allowing it to burn more efficiently.

A turbocharger works by a turbine driven by the engine's exhaust gas, which drives the compressor fan to force air into the engine.

An intercooler can be added in addition to this, allowing the air to be cooler, as air is denser at lower temperatures.

Unlike superchargers, which are driven by the torque of the engine, a turbocharger's power may take some time to gather the pressure required to turn the turbine fast enough to produce significant boost this is called the "lag" effect, and is more common with single larger turbochargers.
Passenger: "Oh man my head is in my stomach right now"

Driver: "That would be the huge rush of power produced by the turbocharger!"

A turbocharger is a method of forced induction in a car's engine. It is powered by the by exhaust gas through the exhaust manifold which spins a turbine on the back of the turbo. This spins a turbine on the front of the turbo called the compressor wheel that sucks in air and compresses it, sends it through an intercooler and into the intake manifold, into the combustion chamber and creates boost.
dude, nice turbocharger, that thing must eject a lot of gas

1. When two people 69 underneath bed sheets, ideally white ones that resemble a traditional Roman toga, while each one holds a can of Red Bull or similar energy drink in one hand and slams it.
Friend #1: How did your night go with your new lady-friend Tanya, (or if talking to a woman, your new guy-friend Steve)?

Me: Wowwwww, Tanya/Steve and I Roman Turbocharged last night under the sheets, it was sooooo intense!

Friend #1: Please tell me more about this Roman Turbocharger you speak of!

Me: Basically, we got under the sheets, 69'ed, and slammed Red Bull!

Friend #1: Wow, sounds awesome, I will definitely be trying that next time I'm with my GF/BF!!

To turbocharge a girl, one must take a big breath of fresh air and blow it up her vagina to compress it (also known as supercharging). The compressed air will cause the girl to queef in your mouth. To turbocharge you must force the air from the queef back into the vagina and continue to eat the girl out.
My girlfriend asked me to turbocharge her while I was eating her out.

Striver 

Share definition Flag
The striver is an interesting phenomenon that is seen across college campuses. In essence, the striver is an over-achiever who comes from a working or middle class family. He may be an immigrant. He may have been a slacker in HS who was "born again" into an academic wunderkind. Or he may just be an over-achiever who is keeping at it.

The striver is willing to sacrifice his social life at the expense of Phi Beta Kappa and Summa Cum Laude. The striver is the guy who stays at the library long after you are gone. The striver is the guy who takes 30 credits/semester and considers anything below an A/4.0 failure. The striver doesn't work on campus, he is too busy finding ways to pad his resume instead of working retail or workstudy. The striver lets his grades pay his education by applying to ten scholarships a year.

The striver is a future Soros/Fullbright/Rhodes/Gates/Marshall/etc. fellow. The striver lives to study. For the striver, their fun comes from the rewards they expect to receive in return for their diligence. Be it Law School, B-School, academia, or politics. The striver seeks to find the American Dream through academic success.
Anthony was a striver. He transfered from a TTT to an IVY and graduated in 2 years. He studied his ass off and went to Penn Law. He got a Biglaw offer. But lost it all because of an unmoderated mesasgeboard.

Successful strivers:
- Barack Obama
- Harold Koh
