I think diesels are fucking gay and stupid, I don't like shifting every 1000rpm. Only people who don't like cars have them.

What is there to appreciate? They get better fuel economy that's it.

>muh torque
Fuck this meme. A turbo gas engine of the same size makes better power and torque.

>A turbo gas engine of the same size makes better power and torque.
kek, are you so dense you can't even google before posting?
Diesels make substantially more torque than an equivalent petrol engine, even if it is turbocharged.
And they also make as much power.
Also way more reliable.

kek
>>
>>14429081

>needs 3 turbos not to be complete shit

still slower than a normal 550 even with more torque and on top of that you cucked yourself into owning a diesel. Stop pretending they even compete.
>>
>>14429081
Your thread is shit, deal with it you cancerous tripfag.

>>14429033
I took driving lessons in a diesel (Polo). It drives heavy, and isn't as much fun as gas.
>>
>>14429138
>a 550i has a V8
You really can't use google, can you?

>>14429157
I had driving lessons on a Yaris mk1 and a mk2. They were shit.
Don't generalise.

>you can't like things I don't like

I've been looking into getting a w109 or 108 diesel lately. Don't know shit about diesel engines so this seemed like a good starting point, cheap and reliable.
>>
>>14429024
>Muricans don't know bout muh diesel

But my eurocuck friend, my diesel is more than twice the size of yours, why would you say something so stupid?
>>
>>14429081
diesel doesn't make torque, the metric fuckton of boost they run makes torque

What in the freedom fuck are you talking bout son. We have tons of diesels. Difference is our diesels are actually useful.

>bigger peak pressure
Diesel engines are torquier by design. The turbo just makes it more efficient and gives it extra torque/power. They don't really run a fuckton of boost stock.
Fucking hell, /o/ really gets dumber by the day.

Diesel cars are quite normal in Europe, the same doesn't apply to the US. That's what I was saying.

True but diesel trucks are a dime a dozen here.
>>

No. Look at NA diesels vs NA petrol engines.
>>
>>14429723

because we make diesels that are actually useful
>>
>>14429748
Nah, it just happens your petrol is cheaper than water.
And diesel engines are way more reliable and the maintenance schedules are way more sparse which makes it the best type of engine for someone who drives a lot.


>>14429745
N/A diesels for passenger cars still weren't as optimised as petrol engines at the time. The blocks couldn't really take the compression.
Nowadays, they are a lot more refined.
It's not about the boost, simply.
Having said that, my Punto does run 2bar at its max (vgt) (29psi for you americans.)
>>
>>14429794

>petrol

Reminder that your car doesn't run on petroleum.
>>
>>14429794
>The blocks couldn't really take the compression.
I don't remember blocks splitting everywhere.
>my Punto does run 2bar at its max
Yeah i doubt that makes much difference, it's only 2bar after all.
>>
>>14429050
What are you stuck in late 70s? Modern diesels are nothing like old diesels.

I think he might mean the time GM(I think) converted their gasoline blocks to diesel

The internals weren't up to the increased torque of diesel and many thrown rods were the result
>>
>>14430225
doesn't he know they weren't the only ones to build NA diesels?
>>
>>14430082
A turbo putting out 2 bar is 29.008 psi. How are you getting 50 psi?
>>
>>14430250
The BMW M550d runs 50psi boost mate

Show me an unmolested gas motor that can make my 7,000lb truck go 0-60 in under 7 seconds while still having the torque to pull 20k pound trailers up and down mountains for a minimum of 300k miles...Go on I'll be waiting

A fact that you pulled out of your ass. Diesel makes the world go round. What can you say about gasoline.

... It's a 5.7L with 380hp and 400 torque..

Ever heard of TRD?

worse in every single way than toyotas twin turbo diesel v8s...
>>
>>14432252
So not the 2UZ but the newer 3UR then... If you Toyota fags can't even get your own engines right hiw do you expect to compete with the superior truck engines
>>
I have a 2014 3.2 Ford Ranger 5 pot. It has enough torque to pull b'ham palace. Sits at 80mph no problem too. I do wish it had locking diffs all round, but you cant have it all. Still beastly enough to keep up with the Wife's 110 in Scotland during winter.
>>
Half my vehicles are diesel, in the middle of the USA. Only one of them is a truck.

'15 TDI Golf - love the 50mpg
'03 Cummins Ram - Long bed, 4 door, 4x4, 6spd MT master race
