* A resonator *within* the turbocharger system: Some turbocharger systems might include a resonator to dampen unwanted noise from the turbocharger's operation. This wouldn't be a separate component externally but integrated into the system. It's not a common feature prominently called out in Sprinter documentation.
* A misnomer for a different part: Someone might incorrectly use the term "turbo resonator" to refer to:
* The turbocharger itself: The turbocharger is the core component responsible for boosting engine power.
* A muffler or silencer: Part of the exhaust system designed to reduce noise. There might be one close to the turbo, leading to the confusion.
* A section of the intake piping: A bend or larger diameter section of pipe in the intake system that can have a dampening effect on the air flow.
To understand what someone means by "turbo resonator" on a Dodge Sprinter, you'd need more context. It's best to ask the person who used the term for clarification, or provide more information about the situation where they used the term. For example:
* "Where is the turbo resonator located?" (This indicates a specific part)
* "My turbo resonator is making a noise" (This describes a symptom)
With more detail, a more precise answer can be provided.
