In a diesel you want to get as much air mass stuffed into the cylinder as possible to run efficiently at any speed.
That is why I plan to run an intercooler and water injection on my diesel.
Water injection will be my next wiki after the articles printed in this months in "dieselpower magazine" become free for viewing on the internet. That one article is going to be my main "external link".
