A method for supercharging internal combustion engines by moving supercharged air in a flow path, separating part of the air from the flow path and mixing it with engine exhaust products, directing another portion of the air in the flow path into the chambers of an internal combustion engine to supercharge the engine, and controlling the quantity of air separated from the flow path and mixed with the exhaust in accordance with a quantity of fuel supplied to the internal combustion engine during each cycle. Either single or double diversion may be used. The apparatus for performing the method comprises a compressor which utilizes heated engine exhaust products to compress air for supercharging an engine. A first conduit is connected to the compressor for carrying combustion products from the engine and a second conduit is connected to the compressor to carry air from the compressor to the intake of the engine. At least one additional conduit is provided which connects the first and second conduits to one another for diverting a portion of the compressed air from the second conduit into the exhaust products carried in the first conduit.
