An AC/DC converter connects the conventional 12-volt electrical system. It helps out whenever the exhaust gas flow provides too little energy to drive the turbocharger, i.e. when starting off and accelerating in the low-rev range up to 1,650 rpm. A sound actuator in the exhaust system gives the TDI a sonorous sound.
