ABSTRACT:
An internal combustion engine with a dual turbocharger system which includes an engine, a first and a second turbocharger arranged in parallel with each other, an intake switching valve located downstream of a compressor of the second turbocharger, an exhaust switching valve located downstream of a turbine of the second turbocharger. The engine operation is changed between a "one-turbocharger-operation" wherein only the first turbocharger is operated and a "two-turbocharger-operation" wherein both the first turbocharger and the second turbocharger are operated. Change from the "one-turbocharger-operation" to the "two-turbocharger-operation" is performed on the basis of an intake air quantity, and change from the "two-turbocharger-operation" to the "one-turbocharger-operation" is performed on the basis of an engine speed. This type of change suppresses a torque shock at shift changing during acceleration and improves the drive feeling.
