Abstract
An engine includes: a turbocharger including a turbine and a compressor; an EGR passage connecting an exhaust passage on an upstream side of the turbine and an air intake passage on a downstream side of the compressor; an EGR valve provided in the EGR passage; a bypass passage that bypasses the turbine; and a waste gate valve provided in the bypass passage. In the engine, when a boost pressure is increased to a limit pressure, a first boost pressure control is executed, in which the EGR valve is opened and the waste gate valve is closed. After the first boost pressure control starts, when an engine speed is increased to a prescribed value, a second boost pressure control is executed, in which the waste gate valve is opened in addition to the EGR valve.
