You can turbocharge almost any ICE that you like. Diesels take to it rather well. However, you have some issues: cost/benefit, and packaging,
The cost of the hardware aside, there will be some fabrication involved as this engine was not available in turbocharged form from any OEM. If you can do it, great, if not you gotta pay the man. One other cost is hidden: Maintainence. Turbos like clean, cool oil. More frequent oil changes would be in your future. If you use the increased torque to do more and harder work, you will also have more frequent rebuilds on everything, and you will have to figure in greater cooling capacity for the engine as well as the hydro. On the benefit side if you just want a cool project, then that's all the benefit you need, but if you seek greater utility then you need to analyze the greater ongoing costs against the actual benefit received.
