An engine assembly with an air intake system and a turbocharger device in fluid communication with the air intake system includes an electronic control unit in communication with the air intake system and turbocharger device. A CAC system is in downstream fluid communication with the turbocharger device and in upstream fluid communication with the air intake system and includes at least one flow adjustment mechanism in communication with the electronic control unit and selectively positionable between a first position and one or more second positions to adjust velocity of air from the turbocharger device flowing through the CAC system and to manage condensation buildup in the CAC system and/or to open a bypass duct in order for some or all of the turbo airflow to bypass the CAC system to reduce or eliminate condensation buildup in the CAC system at warm ambient conditions and ice buildup at cold ambient conditions.

Condensation control system for internal combustion engine

A silencer for an internal combustion engine of a motor vehicle having a turbocharger and a charge air cooler is provided. The silencer includes a turbocharger module with a passage duct. An inlet interface is fastened to an outlet connector of the turbocharger of the internal combustion engine. An outlet interface of the turbocharger module is fastened one or more modules configured as a resonator module and/or a charge air cooler module. An outlet interface of the module most remote from the outlet connector of the turbocharger is fastened to an inlet interface of a feed line for the charge air cooler of the internal combustion engine.
