ah yeah i see, you thought maybe we were thinking it had 2 cylinder supercharged and then a turbo each on the other 2?
No no, on ships diesel engines there are 2 types of twin turbo set-ups.
Split charged, as in 2 turbos, on either bank, or taking half the cylinders each, which each blow into the same inlet manifold.
Or, one turbo blows into the exhaust side of the other turbo.
