We dont run diesel much here in Aus but i can see why. A big diesel engine with turbo and you never need to rev the thing. Great for reliability.

Just for ha ha that pic lol. Twin blower on a V8.... Ohhhh yea!!!
One thing that perhaps needs to be mentioned is the loss of power from a blower. Up to 20% taken from the engines crankshaft where turbo uses little or no engine power to run.
So the same boost level on each would deliver more through a turbo. Still i love blowers.
Also wastegates are an issue. Well here in Aus there illegal actually restricting the turbo greatly.
Not actually sure on the legal issues there but i do know if you have a wastegate that can be heard the cops will canary you for it.
