An internal combustion engine has a turbocharger system and an exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) path. The turbocharger system comprises an inlet, an outlet and at least one turbocharger. The exhaust gas recirculation path recirculates a flow of exhaust gas to the air intake path. An EGR turbocharger has a turbine with an inlet in fluid communication with a first location in the exhaust gas path and an outlet in fluid communication with a second location in the exhaust gas path. The first and second locations being disposed such that, in use, the pressure difference of the gas between the inlet and outlet of the EGR turbine is less than the pressure difference of the gas between the inlet and outlet of the turbocharger system. The expansion ratio across the EGR turbine is therefore less than that across the turbocharger system and the EGR turbocharger is able to operate with greater efficiency.
