to eliminate turbo lag—in support of aggressive engine downsizing. CPT recommends a combination of the highly dynamic electric supercharger in series with a conventional exhaust-driven turbocharger to optimize the overall response of the system, compared to other air charging methods. Boost pressure is directly controlled by the ECU.
