Why can’t we use the heat from combustion to make cars more efficient?

Can we use the heat to boil water to turn a turbine? Or would the water never cool enough to be used again?

What about using the heat to create pressure and then releasing the pressure to help move the fly wheel?

But we already do it.
Turbochargers harvest excess energy that comes out the exhaust and use it to pump more air into the intake, aiding combustion
