Yes The EPS system will have less of an impact then if I would have tried to implement an hydraulic system.

The goal is to keep the diesel engine as free as possible of all parasitic devices.

So far I have eliminated the Starter, Alternator, and Water Pump from the diesel engine. This frees up the diesels full horsepower capability. Which in a 2 cylinder every bit of horsepower helps!

The diesel is a V twin, which will lend it self quite nice to twin turbos :-) So it will be interesting to see how much horsepower we can make out of that little 2 cylinder diesel. I will have to design my own water/methanol injection system for it, which will not be to difficult. The injection once its fine tuned should allow the diesel to handle the twin turbos just fine :-)

I think you will digg it when I am done Cripple Rooster :-)
