I used to ask myself the same question 7 or so years ago when the vehicle was at 600 k km's and never could really resolve the issue in my head.
According to the people at Berrima Diesel, if the motor does not have any blow-by it's ok to turbo it, but I'm a little hesitant due to the high life and potential wear factors.
So would you or would you not fit a turbo kit to a 1hz with a lot of km's on it? The idea is to increase airflow into the motor to assist it under load for more efficient combustion of the fuel input, not to create a 0 to 60 2.5 tonne weapon or a 3.5 tonne caravan towing road nazi.
What would be your parameters?
