Lol, I think this picture justifies my wanting to swap a dirty chipped diesel into a prius and take this pic in reverse.

I don't mind turbo diesels, or even lifted trucks. Rolling coal is what I have a problem with.

Well, to an extent rolling coal serves a purpose. You need the heat from a rich burn continuing into the exhaust manifold to provide the energy required to light the turbo. When I had a big single on my diesel (since sold) it took a while for the turbo light, start to move enough air to clean up to a light haze. A switch to compounds using a very large turbo in series with the stock unit cleaned up to a haze much faster because it came on sooner and the increase in airflow early on plus the remaining heat in the exhaust stream not used by the turbine on the little guy in addition to the unmolested stream from the waste-gate brought the big unit up much faster.
This is not to say that it needs to "roll coal" as excessively as some of these guys tune for, because running that rich for extended periods leads to excessive EGTs which can cause damage to some expensive bits.
Edit: The picture should have said *hate* not "have"

I think you'd need a watermelon for that task.

What's the benefit of running that rich? I don't know anything about diesels, but I can't imagine why you'd want all that fuel to burn incompletely.
