Don't do it Vlad. Superchargers and diesels are a match made in hell. We had a guy here trying to prove they weren't, but he's gone quiet.
The best replacement for one turbo is two turbos. But a VNT is a reasonable substitute.

Are the the twin turbo vw engines compound?

Yep and the heavy hitting BMW 3.0tdi. 3.0SDV6 is too and maybe Mazda 6 diesel. Compounds are becoming common.Are the the twin turbo vw engines compound?

What is the 3.0SDV6?
Is compound the same as sequential? 2 turbo straight 6 petrol engines have been around for a while.

Yes it has been done:

However see Dougal's comments on advisability...
There is a guy in the GCLRO who has a supercharger on a 4BD1 Isuzu isn't there?
Dougal - are you talking about the VM guy? I lost track of his stuff after I hit the ignore button on him [first and only person I have needed to do that for yet]. Has he disappeared or is he still around?

SubscriberWhat's the reason for that?

3.0SDV6 is the diesel v6 engine used in the D4's and RRS. Now in the big rangie too.
It's claimed to deliver 500Nm within 500ms of idle.
Sequential turbos run one, then switch over to the other with no compounding of boost. They also have a "valley of death" during switchover where boost drops.
Centrifugal supercharger too. They're the worst kind to put on a diesel, boost is proportional to rpm^2.
Yes that VM guy. I took him off the ignore list a few weeks later, just in case he had anything useful to say.
Never heard any more: http://www.aulro.com/afvb/members-ri...i-project.html
September 2013 was apparently ready to run.
Inefficient compressor takes a lot of power to create boost and makes a lot of heat.
It takes crank power to create boost. A lot of crank power.
Boost is not scaled in any way to demand. You lose the same power at 2000rpm whether you are coasting downhill or using full torque.
They create a huge amount of noise too.
The end result is low power, high fuel consumption and high noise.
