Abstract
A supercharging system includes a waste gate valve and an ECU. The ECU is configured to: calculate a first parameter and a second parameter, each of which has a positive correlation with an intake air amount; obtain a first difference by subtracting a first boost pressure from a second boost pressure; obtain a second difference by subtracting the first parameter from the second parameter; obtain a quotient by dividing the first difference by the second difference; and determine that a malfunction occurs in the waste gate valve when the quotient is larger than a threshold value.
