Abstract

A variable boost pressure control system for turbocharged internal engine systems comprising an adjustable charge air vent valve connectable with the charge air input to an internal combustion engine to provide selection and adjustment of the charge air pressure to the internal combustion engine, either at the site of the charge air vent valve or at a location remote from the charge air vent valve and to provide, if desirable, a flow of cool charge air to a turbocharger cooling jacket.
