A water-cooled compressor housing assembly for a turbocharger includes a compressor housing that defines an open-ended cavity extending axially downstream into the compressor housing, and a separately formed cover that is affixed to the compressor housing so as to close the open end of the cavity and thereby define a coolant passage for a liquid coolant to be circulated through. A coolant inlet and a coolant outlet are provided for supplying coolant into and exhausting coolant from the coolant passage. The compressor housing has a simplified geometry that is manufacturable by sand casting without needed a sand core for the coolant passage, or by die casting.

An e-charger includes an outer housing and a rotor supported for rotation within the outer housing. A motor assembly is housed within the outer housing and includes an electric motor and a motor case. The electric motor is encased within the motor case. The electric motor is configured to drivingly rotate the rotor within the outer housing. Furthermore, the e-charger includes a cooling system configured to receive a coolant. The cooling system includes a manifold passage defined in the outer housing. The cooling system includes a first motor cooling circuit and a second motor cooling circuit that are cooperatively defined by the outer housing and the motor case. The first motor cooling circuit and the second motor cooling circuit are fluidly connected to the manifold passage. The manifold passage is configured to distribute a flow of the coolant between the first motor cooling circuit and the second motor cooling circuit.

A turbine housing of a turbocharge can include a surface that defines a portion of a volute, an annular surface that extends radially inwardly to define a portion of a pressure chamber that is in fluid communication with the volute, a substantially annular plate that defines a portion of the pressure chamber, an annular component, at least one spacer that defines a minimum axial distance between the substantially annular plate and the annular component to define a nozzle that is in fluid communication with the volute and in fluid communication with a turbine wheel space where, responsive to fluid flow in the volute and through the nozzle to the turbine wheel space, the pressure chamber has a fluid pressure that exceeds a fluid pressure of the nozzle to apply a biasing force to the substantially annular plate in an axial direction toward a center housing.

An assembly for an exhaust bypass valve of a two-stage turbocharger can include a first turbocharger stage; a second turbocharger stage; an exhaust bypass valve that includes an open state and a closed state; an actuator; and a linkage mechanism that links the exhaust bypass valve to the actuator where the linkage mechanism includes a spring-biased linkage with a preset load where, in the closed state of the exhaust bypass valve, an axial length of the spring-biased linkage increases responsive to application of a load by the actuator that exceeds the preset load.
