Zusammenfassung: | An internal combustion engine forced induction system and a method for operating the same. The turbocharged engine has an electronic control module and operating instructions in memory. The system includes a modified forced induction system that captures and stores air from the induction system via a system of valves and releases the stored air back into the intake system during acceleration so that turbo response lag is reduced or greatly ameliorated. Regenerative braking is further disclosed to capture and store air for release to the intake system. A method for controlling the forced induction system is also disclosed. Furthermore, a method for controlling the exhaust flow away from the exhaust stream upstream of the turbocharger and into an auxiliary storage tank and back into the exhaust stream upstream of the turbocharger; assisting the pre-spool of the turbine to further or also reduce turbo response lag. |
