Just as a point of information -- turbocharged diesel engines have far cooler
exhaust temperature than gasoline engines. As an engineer, I think it is
always important to try to understand the physical, economic, and regulatory
constraints to which the original design was seeking to conform prior to
making changes with little ability to perform adequate testing and analysis.
