Alright for real, since we got some ninnies up in here, I will reiterate that the numbers I used for my roots example are completely made up (and unresearched), but they do demonstrate why roots blowers are instant on. Fair?

Diesels use turbos for a variety of reasons, mainly they move more exhaust per stroke, so they boost up turbos fasters. Dont forget tho, a 2 stroke diesel uses a roots blower to feed itself air, and it considered naturally aspirated. Most 2 stroke diesels redline sub 2k rpm. In ships, most of them redline 500rpm.

that an entirely what they are for on a 2 stroke diesel, otherwise it won’t run. The turbo is to make power otherwise they are gutless. But a diesel especially in a semi tractor has several hundred more cubic inches to feed the turbo and load it up and build boost. Even a small D13 Volvo is 12.8 liters
