• the turbine is set in rotation by the exhaust gas flow of the internal combustion engine and drives the compressor wheel.
• the compressor wheel increases the pressure in the intake tract of the engine so that during the intake stroke, a larger amount of air enters the cylinder, as in a naturally aspirated engine. As a result, more oxygen is available for the combustion of a correspondingly larger amount of fuel.
