[Vwdiesel] Add just turbo to NA?

[Andrew .Libby]

A "leaner" burn on a diesel does not increase EGTs.  That is gasser
thinking.  Increasing the fuel for a given amount of air increases EGTs in
the functional range of fueling for these engines.  Decreasing the fuel to
air decreases the temps (this includes increasing the air side of the
ratio).
