You could tell it was nonsense since VW has produced lots of turbodiesels. Marshall made a lot of sense on a lot of things but occasionally missed one, it helps to remind me that he was human.

And despite what Marshall said, the combination works really well. Regarding the loss of boost when shifting, this is nonsense. Turbo gas engines with manual transmissions have this much worse than 617a would have it. There is no throttle plate which closes to stop the air flow and slow down the turbo on the 617 when you let off the gas. I'm planning on building another one of these one day.
