Turbo specs on 2013 GLK 250
New owner of 2013 BlueTec, just familiarizing myself with the vehicle and I'm finding this forum a great resource (thanks all!), with that in mind: would anyone know if twin turbo supplied with this vehicle is considered scroll turbo technology? Have a small bet going with my brother-in-law on that

GLK250
If by 'scroll turbo' you're referring to what's commonly called a twin-scroll turbo, then the OM651 engine in the GLK250 does not have that technology. Generally for economic reason, you wouldn't find twin-scroll on a twin turbo engine, as they both accomplish similar things and there's no reason to increase costs by utilizing both technologies.
