Abstract
A turbocharger includes a turbine housing that defines a flow passage for a fluid. The turbine housing includes a turbine shroud member. The turbocharger also includes a turbine wheel supported for rotation within the turbine housing relative to the turbine shroud member. The turbine wheel is configured to rotate as the fluid flows through the flow passage. Moreover, the turbocharger includes a port extending through the turbine shroud member. The port is configured to receive a portion of the fluid flowing through the flow passage.
