Is that a turbo?

SsixHiMod · 02-15-2016, 01:15 PM

And will it fit in my car?

fshubert · 02-15-2016, 02:01 PM

LOL! It might! I plan on cramming this just in front of my rear diffuser. Aligning the exhausts may be the tough part......

SsixHiMod · 02-15-2016, 04:06 PM

I found a smaller one.

Well, it is and it isn't. It is a turbo, but NOT a turbo-charger (compressor). All those puppies are turbo-PUMPS. They spin real fast on gas generated from a combustion process, but the side pumps liquid propellant. That's why that class of engine is referred to as a liquid fuel rocket.

Wait...where is the flux capacitor? Or the dilithium crystals? Much better than a turbo of any sort!
