V8 Diesels Turbos..?

[rekab6969]

Just wondering on the turbo set up on the 200 series V8 diesel, are they one small & one larger or two the same size..?

Hoping that they aren't V V T type !!

no hurry haven't bought one yet.

Curious, why wouldn't you want a VGT? The extra performance more than makes up for their complexity.

Had two trucks with them on and both suffered from sticking turbo vanes.

So.... are they VGT, VNT, VVT...>??

Yes. Different manufacturers call their tech different names. The function is usually the same, to vary airflow through the turbine somehow.

Twins, both same size, variable vane.
