Abstract
The invention relates to a method to control an internal combustion engine. The internal combustion engine comprises a cylinder, an air guide arranged to guide an airflow to the cylinder, an exhaust guide arranged to guide an exhaust flow from the cylinder. The method comprises the step to determine a value of at least one engine operation parameter. Further, the method comprises the step to determine a target value of an exhaust performance parameter depending on the determined engine operation parameter value. Lastly, the air flow through the air guide and the exhaust flow through the exhaust guide is controlled depending on the determined target exhaust performance parameter value.
