This is not physically possible in any fashion as Diesel engines do not produce enough RPM to get high horsepower to begin with. For a diesel engine to produce the 510 HP it would have to be 10 cyl or more (at least 50 litres) and the engine would be the size of the car you want to put it into. Not even with twin turbos will this be possible in diesel. The strong point for diesel engines is torque. Not even a super maxed transmission would gain HP for the engine.

it's possible, but you may want to put a bit lower on the horsepower with the v6, like 300-400
in the 2011 Peugeot 908 HDi FAP: "3.7-liter V8 HDi FAP turbodiesel engine with a 90-degree angle and an output of 550 horsepower."

or if you want to go back to 2007, the v12 5.5L diesel engine produced 700hp and had this awesome sound similar to a vacuum sweeper.

the car looks decent, one suggestion would be to scale the top part of the car down to create an angle between the windows and side panel.
