Check out this video of a 9000 RPM 3 liter diesel:

Here is what the owner(his name is Kimi) from Finland had to say about the engine when I asked him:

"...We started to built it from Mercedes Benz 3liter 24 valve engine. (1996) OM606

It is a dual stage, and LP (low pressure) is done with two (own design with Holset Engineer) Holset turbochargers and HP (high pressure) is done with one Eaton M62 blower. Blower runs up to 22.000 rpm. Turbos goes up to 145.000, limited with wastegate. Full boost is about 6 bars. Max RPM is around 9000. depens what is the pump setting. We started to built this at 2007. First video was first start ever.. Engine is totallyt modified and redesigned and there is nothing original inside."

"What comes to MB F1 engine :)) It is calculated that it should deliver 700-750hp. and this min so that engine will last daily use."
 
I'd like to have that setup in a small car...maybe a Mustang or something. Wish I could get my VW TDI to run like that. :bow:
