The main reason that I see for turbocharging is this: Volumetric Efficiency. Diesels in particular have a tendency to be sluggish and somewhat unresponsive when normally aspirated. Turbocharging brings them to life. And, since the air intake is un-throttled on a diesel, they are a natural for turbocharging. Turbochargers basically DOUBLE the volumetric efficiency of an engine. That means that a 2-liter engine can perform the work of a 4-liter engine with a turbo. Fuel efficiency is an added bonus. The turbo only comes on when it is called for. That means that when you are using a 2-liter engine to work like a 4-liter engine, it only needs to be fed like a 4-liter engine WHEN IT IS WORKING!!!! When under light loads, boost is negligible, and so is fuel usage. There are also savings in weight. A turbo allows for a physically smaller engine that weighs less. It isn't just all about racing, hot-rodding, or speed. Legitimate work comes into play as well.

This story is about the day my Grandfather Brown (true name) decided along with my parents to purchase a new Ford tractor. It wasn't really new except to us. The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule. Now my grandfather had had this mule since the mid 40's and he was getting some age on him. S
