4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Merci infiniment. Au risque de vous déçevoir, la trad en question était une trad test pour un boulot que je pourrais avoir. J'avais très peu de temps disponible, alors j'ai fait appel à Proz.com... l'ingénierie mécanique à ce niveau n'est pas mon point fort, alors avec de l'informatique et un traître commerce à faire aussi, j'espère que vous m'en voudrez pas. N'ayant pas les ressources nécessaires pour me lancer en freelance, chuis obligé de postuler pour un poste en agence. Votre réponse m'était venu après le moment de renvoi du text, mais c'était, à mon sens, la meilleure réponse, donc à vous les Kudoz!! Remerciements Glen McCulley PS Par contre, si vous avez des questions en médical ou pharmaceutique, je peux vous renvoyer l'ascenseur!"

turbocharger is an external
supercharger designed to be
driven by means of a turbine
wheel which receives its
power from the ENGINE exhaust.
