Turbochargers are a type of forced induction systems, which compresses the air flowing into an engine. The advantage of compressing the air is that it allows more air to enter the combustion cylinder. More air would mean more fuel can be forced-in, which in turn means more power output. Thus, each power-stroke of the engine would give more power compared to a naturally-aspirated …
