New turbos, lag is for dinasaurs

[bigfoot]

Check these new turbos out. They wrapped windings around the turbo shafts to spin them up like an electric motor when u need boost. Turbodyne and Garrett-Honeywell jointly developed them.

Here is a tech article. Hope u can get access to it. Autospeed rocks.

They have to protect the windings from all that heat. And it draws alot of amps, but only for a few seconds. Then it becomes a generator.
Acording to the Autospeed article dated last fall, Garrett and Turbodyne are suing each other over it. But I see that the Dynacharger is listed as a current product. Lets get some emails going to get these on the market. Or at least get them to sell one, to me.

Page 5 of the article said that the turbo currently being developed is for a 2.0 liter gas engine. I've seen articles dating back to 1998 where it won some industry awards. Turbodyne holds the patents, I'm gonna email em. Garrett needs a kick in the butt. I'm gonna email them too. Maybe I can get 1 off a Saab soon.

I saw that in pop mechanics a couple years ago, i thought it must have fallen through, but I guess not. Hopefully they are making it for our 2.0
