Actually, they had a problem when their original parts supplier for the turbines went out of business and the new company was having a hard time replicating the tolerances they needed.
The turbos worked just fine. They had kits for Harleys and the Zetec Focus. Neither one is diesel (in the US)
And, when is Greg going to chime in here with the VGT's that where on the older Chrysler products?
Actually, in looking at the article/pics, it appears that the actual turbine changes shape. The other VGT's have vanes that close in on the turbine. This is somewhat different and I would wonder if the complexity gives any gains.
