I saw one on a 350 chev once and it only boosted around 6 pounds made it run good though. Basic principle should be the same.

All turbos are the same. Diesels can withstand higher pressures than gassers. Diesels usually have larger exhaust AR housings. The calculations are a little different, but the actual mechanics are common.
