The turbocharged engine in accordance with the present invention comprises an EGR unit having an EGR passage linking an intake passage and an exhaust passage and an EGR valve provided in the EGR passage. The engine further comprises deceleration deciding unit for deciding as to whether a vehicle decelerates, and intake air release unit for opening the EGR valve and causing part of the intake air present in the intake passage to flow into the exhaust passage through the EGR passage when the deceleration deciding unit decides that the vehicle is decelerating.

What is claimed is: 1. A turbocharged engine comprising an EGR unit having an EGR passage linking an intake passage and an exhaust passage and an EGR valve provided in said EGR passage, said engine further comprising: deceleration deciding means for deciding as to whether a vehicle decelerates; and intake air release means for opening said EGR valve and releasing part of the intake air present in said intake passage into said exhaust passage through said EGR passage when said deceleration deciding means decides that the vehicle is decelerating; wherein said intake air release means closes said EGR valve once a prescribed time elapses after said EGR valve was opened. 2. The turbocharged engine according to claim 1, comprising: engine revolution speed detection means for detecting the engine revolution speed; and accelerator opening degree detection means for detecting the accelerator opening degree, wherein said deceleration deciding means decides that the vehicle has decelerated when the engine revolution speed detected by said engine revolution speed detection means is within a prescribed range and the accelerator opening degree detected by said accelerator opening degree detection means is zero. 3. The turbocharged engine according to claim 2, wherein said prescribed range is between about 500 rpm and about 2000 rpm. 4. The turbocharged engine according to claim 2, wherein said engine revolution speed detection means is an engine revolution speed sensor. 5. The turbocharged engine according to claim 2, wherein said accelerator opening degree detection means is an accelerator opening degree sensor. 6. The turbocharged engine according to claim 1, wherein said prescribed time is 3 seconds.
