I recently overheard a conversation where someone stated that turbochargers increase gas mileage (this was auto related), however logic would dictate that in order to make more power, you need more fuel.
Removing your turbos may be costly, i.e., reconfiguring manifolds, exhaust systems and re-jetting or re-calibrating fuel delivery. The only thing that comes to mind in this scenario is... power can save you in a multitude of situations.
Graham, if you post this question under the technical forum, maybe someone can share some wisdom. I know there's a few diesel mechanics that follow the threads there. Good question!
