Best Answer

To increase the power output of an engine when needed, it does this by increasing volumetric efficience of the engine. The turbo compressies the incoming air and forcing it into the cylinders at above normal atmospheric pressure. Under boost the motor acts like it is bigger than it really is.. example a normally aspirated 2.0L engine will act like/produce the equivalent power of a 4.0l when it is boosted to aprox.14-15psi.
