There's a lot more to turbocharging than that, but if you thought it was a "magic box", that'll be enough to get you started.  |
You going to have the boy all screwed up. A turbo doesn't draw air form the exhaust. It uses the exhaust gases to spin a rotor that is attached to another rotor in the inlet air side of the motor to increase airflow into the motor which allows for more fuel. This make a bigger air/ fuel charge in the cylinder thus making more power. Exhaust gases wouldn't make for very good combustion air.
