turbocharged engine is an internal combustion engine that is equipped with a
turbocharger and other turbo accessories like blow off valves.
The turbocharger is a device that forces more air into the engine's combustion

air allows the engine to burn more fuel, thereby generating more power.

leaky turbocharger refers to a situation where the turbo accessorieslikeblow off valves, which are designed to increase the engine's power and
efficiency by forcing extra air into the combustion chamber, experiences a loss
of pressure or fluid (like oil) due to a malfunction or damage. This leakage
