A regulated two-stage turbocharger system is described, including
high-pressure and low-pressure turbocharger units. The low-pressure
turbocharger unit includes a twin volute turbine portion. The
turbocharger system includes a valve system having valve members that are
independently controllable so as to selectively control an exhaust gas
flow into the twin volutes of the turbine portion of the low-pressure
turbocharger unit. By-pass valve systems are also provided for the twin
volute turbine portion of the low-pressure turbocharger unit and the
compressor portion of the high-pressure turbocharger unit.
