I've never seen it before.

What a waste. I'm guaranteeing that the damn thing can't build enough pressure to really matter.

Now there's some logic!

LOGIC? You seriously want to invoke logic in a conversation about fake hijackings, missiles hitting the pentagon, and bombs planted throughout the world trade center? I thought it was a given that logic was checked at the door when entering one of these threads.

Hey guys ya'll are wrong on this. If you run the exhaust into it backwards you will have a generator for the electric motors at the wheels and 9million mpg.

I wonder if you took that electric motor off it would still work as a conventional turbo, you know like the ones that actually work.

Damn, I cant find the site, but I found a totally badass website by accident of actual trials of testing electrically assisted turbos and different designs for diesel engines. I'll edit this post if I find it. Anyways it worked really well, but it was a HUGE electric demand; we're talking starter motor for a sub 2.0 engine big demand. It worked quite well, though it was expensive and they ended up putting permanent magnets on the blades of the wheel itself (which is what I imagined all along), so I can only imagine what that mustve done for balance.
