EGT's??
Anyone know the typical differences in exhaust gas temperatures in naturally aspirated versus turbocharged diesels? I'm figuring there must be a higher average temperature in turbocharged engines, why else would piston oil cooling squirters be installed. But, I can't find any info on the web about the temperature differentials. Anyone have a pyro in an NA and a turbo that can provide some insight?
I've read in a number of places that EGT's above 1300 degrees for sustained periods in a turbocharged engine are bad for the engine, but that's with oil cooled pistons. What's a safe operating EGT temperature for an NA without oil cooled pistons?
