Reply to comment by mooseisfromcanada in ELI5: what’s the difference between a super charger and a turbo charger? by AlienAussie

A turbo doesn't change the air/fuel mixture, that should stay effectively constant. It increases the effective compression ratio (more air *and* more fuel in the cylinder).
