Best Answer

A turbocharger uses exhaust gases to drive a turbine which forces more air into the cylinders, allowing for more fuel to be burned per cycle, resulting in increased horsepower. Besides performance, a turbocharger can also be used in a low-displacement engine (e.g. 1.6L) to match the performance of a larger engine (e.g. 2.5L), resulting in better fuel efficiency for similar performance. In conclusion, a turbocharger improves performance and fuel efficiency.
