The unit can be applied to naturally-aspirated or forced induction engines—though most likely will be applied to downsized turbocharged engines as an additional unit to the existing turbocharger. The exhaust gas can reach temperatures greater than 900 °C, whereas the turbine upper functional limit is 850 °C.

This combination of efficiency and dynamic performance is enabled by the systematic interplay of ACT, downsizing (reduced engine displacement plus direct injection and charging) and BlueMotion Technology (Stop/Start system, battery regeneration). TSI in the Polo BlueGT is the top engine of the entirely new EA211 series of petrol engines.
