What size will the turbo be on a Diesel?
I've heard they are totally different to a petrol turbo and I now knowing a little tiny bit about turbo chargers was just wondering what the size of a turbo would be on a diesel. For example a ford focus 2.0 TDCi 1367bhp. And without the turbo how much power would the same car have?
Also can you supercharge a Diesel?

generally the turbos fitted to diesel cars are very small, to match the diesels very small powerband..

not that different from petrol ones barring usually exhaust side is bigger in comparison to the compressor.
some form of T2, same as a petrol car of that power
and yes, many used to be supercharged as standard.

Also another question, My dads turbo had a big pipe on it going to a box. What confused me was where did it get air to suck in as it had a big pipe on the end of it going to a box?

My Focus pretty much bashes most of the chav-mobiles you spot out on the road. Some spotty pleb in a VTS tried racing me away from the lights on the road that comes up from the motorway past the auctions at rothwell, down towards woodlesford, and my car made mincemeat out of it. Same deal with these shitty Irmscher Corsas that look like something off robot wars, generally driven by jumped up little cunts who's mum's got them it on finance in her name
