A turbocharger consists of a centrifugal compressor mounted on a common shaft with a turbine that is driven by exhaust gas. The turbocharger compresses the intake air and forces more air into the engine cylinders. This allows the engine to burn more fuel efficiently, producing more horsepower. When the boost pressure is relatively low, the turbocharger can reduce smoke concentration, concentration in the cylinder, fuel consumption and increase engine performance at elevated terrain. When the boost pressure is high, the turbocharger can provide a large increase in engine output by increasing the amount of air that is forced into the engine cylinders.

High boost |
When boost pressure is high, fuel supply increases for more power.

Low boost |
When boost pressure is low it prevents over fueling, which decreases smoke at start-up and acceleration.
