The original reason for turbo charging the 465 was for emissions. It dosen't
make that much more horsepower. The nonturbo trucks belch black smoke
(unburned fuel) and the turbo just gives it more air to burn that excess
fuel. The point Richard was trying to make, I think, was that you can't make
a diesel run too lean- it will just make less power. The danger comes when
you over fuel which you can't do by adding a turbo to a diesel because you're
adding air only. You just may not be generating maximum possible horse power
without adjusting the fuel pump.
