Turbochargers are typically driven by energy from the exhaust—i.e., starting from very low revs, the rise in boost pressure and therefore torque becomes gradually greater only as the exhaust energy increases. The reduced heat demand enables earlier activation of the catalytic converter. Click to enlarge. The biturbo 3.0
