Turbofuel is an improved version of Fuel mixed with Compacted Coal.
Obtaining
Unlocking
Its recipe is unlocked exclusively as an alternate recipe. The default recipe and Turbo Heavy Fuel will only appear in the selection if Compacted Coal is already unlocked.

- Weighted Point is the weighted consumption rate which is calculated by:
(resource consumption rate / maximum extraction rate) * 10,000
. The lower the better. - Energy per item can be used to measure how much power is consumed for the entire production chain. The lower the better.
- Space refers to building space, excluding belts and pipes. The lower the better.
- Energy for sinking byproducts are considered, assuming using Conveyor Belt Mk.4.
- Fuel is assumed to be produced via Diluted Fuel alternate recipe.
- As 1 m3 of Turbofuel contains 2000 MJ, subtracting its manufacturing energy will show the net energy gain.

Notes
- It can be used to power Fuel Generators.
- Packaged Turbofuel can be used as Vehicle fuel, but not in the Jetpack.
Tips
- Two Turobofuel power setup tutorials are available, see Fuel Generator#Setting up Fuel power for a generalized setup or Tutorial:How to play#Turbofuel Power for a specific detailed setup.
Gallery
Schematic of Turbofuel production based on 500 m3/min of Crude Oil and 333.34 Sulfur/min to yield 666.66 m3/min of Turbofuel. Reduces Sulfur usage and eliminates coal usage. However increases oil usage.
