Although it should be said that water vapor is a major component of hydrocarbon combustion, so there is "steam" in the exhaust gases, but that steam does not condense through the turbocharger so the steam energy isn't really being used very efficiently (because the turbo would be destroyed by injesting water).
The turbine converts enthalpy in the mixture of exhaust gases (CO2, H2O, hot N2) into mechanical work to drive the compressor wheel.
