Why is a 4cyl Turbo Diesel ok, but a 4 cylinder Turbo DI gas a bad design? Scotty was trashing the 2.3 saying that a lot of people have problems in the Mustang? I get suckered in to a video of his but end up getting annoyed before its done. Its not always against a Ford, sometimes its click bate. Curious as to everyones opinion about either Scotty or DI Turbo, or just Turbo engines overall. Why are diesels considered better with a turbo! Other than compression ignition, principals are basically the same.

"Does anyone care what Scotty Kilmer thinks".....Simple answer no. ?

I watched one of his videos a while back and found him to be one the most annoying YouTubers out there.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH:headbang:
You might have watched one of his better videos (if there is such one) but most of his are like this one. At least the couple I tried watching. :)

Ive watched several, I get sucked in because it looks interesting then ends up being more or less click bate! But Im also curious as to why a gas GTDI is frowned on so much! Yet a turbo Diesel is ok!

That I have no idea. This is my first turbo and have never owned a diesel.

Its not just that, My last car was the 2.0 ecopoop, traded it at 125k and never had an issue. I think highway miles keep most of that at bay. Most Ive heard is the turbo kills the motor earlier than a normally aspirated engine due to heat.

5 seconds. I made it a whole 5 seconds before I was annoyed by this jackwang. That's the first and last I watch of him.
