Thanks for that, and forgive my ignorance
I just assumed, once you turbo a diesel, then turbo pistons would be essential.
Perhaps it is just a function of how much you want out of the machine.
For 700nm of torque, it would, seems to me, certainly require the stronger heat resisting pistons.

As regards the smell of diesel serving as an aphrodisiac, I could not tell.
But I can confirm that my stainless snorkel has had a positive impact on certain forum members' libido. :rolling:
