Short for turbocharger, It is an exhaust driven air compressor. Exhaust gases exit the engine and enter the turbine housing where it spins the turbine wheel. The turbine wheel is connected to a shaft which the compressor wheel is also attached. When more power is needed, the turbine/compressor wheel assembly spins faster and the compressor wheel sucks in more air and compresses it creating boost/positive manifold pressure/more power.
