Subject:Turbo Effects

I've not driven a vehicle with a turbocharger on it, so my question(s)
is/are ......... How are the turbos set up to run? Do they have a waste
gate to dump excess pressure. Will they maintain sea level manifold
pressure at altitude, or are they set up to just boost pressure for more
HP from a small engine at sea level and simply fade with altitude.

Curious minds .................. etc, etc, etc.!
