A twin-turbocharged internal combustion engine improves compression efficiency and improves response by serial arrangement of a first turbocharger and a second turbocharger. An exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) system using boost cooling reduces emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx). The EGR system cools recirculated exhaust gas by exchanging heat with compressed, cooled combustion air in an EGR heat exchanger. The second turbocharger has a variable geometry turbine to control flow of recirculated exhaust gas.
