VxTurboxV Newcomer Location: Miami FL Registered: December 2002	Mini gas turbine powered turbo (theory) Wed, 11 December 2002 21:00 Well I know this sounds a little off for the the average turbo joe. But I'm a licensed jet mechanic and have been working with jets for years so here goes! I was thinking you could take a mini turbine like the one scene here: http://users.iafrica.com/d/dj/djbritz/GasTurbine.h tml Then you could retro fit the turbine to the exhaust side of a pretty large turbo and use the thrust from the engine to push your turbo. The mini-turbine has it's own starter and fuel source. and could be controlled from inside the car. Imagine pulling up to your local drag racing spot and spooling a mini jet engine to 111,000 rpm! These little devils are extremely loud. and intimidating. I know you can pick one up for under a grand I am still pricing things out. If this works it could change turbo charging for ever! To give you an example. Your car (avg 6cyl) at full rev would only produce about 2 pounds of thrust. This mini unit produces 8 pounds of thrust! thats enough to spool the sh!T out of a t-88. (in theory of course) Only problem I see is space issues. Might have dig a big hole in the firewall to fit this thing under the hood. Anyone else think of this before? Any suggestions are very welcome? [Report message to a moderator]
