Should place somewhere that you can reach immediately.

Fire can spread really fast.

Nothing to do with TC from an engineering perspective. Probably TC cars drive faster and run hotter.

There's no looping back gas. The backside fart is being used to turn a turbine, and the turbine is then connected to the input air compressor via a shaft. It does not send the fart back into the mouth.

TC engine compresses more air & fuel dan NA engines producing more power and thus more heat. But there's no truth in TC engine catches fire more easily.

 

In a crash if the fuel line breaks and fuel touches the engine it will catch fire...regardless TC or NA.

 

It's just that more mods can be done on a TC engine. Car owners who have done mods that tamper with the fuel line(eg. fuel booster) will have a higher chance of catching fire. But dan again if you look at the number of old cars on the roads nowadays improper engine maintenance may lead to overheating and catch fire too.
