This is an aftermarket arrangement similar to those being installed in India today.

As most people who are familiar with the turbo setup can attest, you don't just add a turbo to an engine designed to be normally aspirated. There are considerations for extra strength in the connecting rods, cylinder head and gasket, extra lubrication and cooling in the pistons and this setup does not do any of those things.

If it does as it claims to (add 50% power) to a standard 240D motor it most certainly is pushing that engine way beyond what it was ever designed for. Will it do long term damage? Maybe - I don't think any of us can say for sure one way or another...all I can say is it is not a "proper" turbodiesel.
