Old fashioned diesel tuning?
Discussion
Good evening chaps,
I have a reasonable understanding of how things work with regards to engine tuning, but diesels are new and intriguing grounds for me.
Basically, if I were to take a mid 90s BMW TDS engine (or something along those lines) and fit a bigger turbo/intercooler etc etc, would I be able to run Megasquirt or Emerald management or do these engines pre-date any sort of electronic management on diesels?
Sorry if this makes me sound like a moron but there doesn't seem to be much done with the M51 diesel engine and as such I can find little to no information regarding them other than those power booster things that take them to 170ish bhp.
Cheers,
Adam.
