1. A method of operating a hybrid vehicle using a hybrid controller, comprising:

  • determining a zero boost power limit of an engine of the hybrid vehicle, said engine including a turbocharger;

    determining a torque curve power limit of the engine, said torque curve power limit based upon the maximum available power when the turbocharger is operating;

    monitoring a current power of the engine and a current maximum available power of the engine when the current maximum available power is between the zero boost power limit and the torque curve power limit; and

    determining a dynamic response model of the engine based on said monitoring, said model providing an estimation of the engine output power over time as the turbocharger substantially contributes to the output power of the engine.
