  2. Seems as though I’ve read that cast compressor wheels are just as good by any measure. So…given a quality cast wheel performs as well, and has no higher incidence of failure, then it’s just as good.

  5. The pistons in my 3.8 liter, V6, 500 hp 1986 Buick Grand National had the factory cast pistons. Those factory installed cast units were specifically designed for turbo application. Worked great...never failed, even under thousands of miles at 23lb boost

  6. How many psi boost? What pump gas octane fuel there? We have E85 here in the Midwest US (I live Lansing Michigan)

  7. As an interesting technical and engineering piece…sweet, but they’re dangerous Period! Though I’m not going to bore everyone by telling an extraordinarily tragic MC accident story of a close family member and a first time visitor to America 19 year old German boy. I can tell you…try making that phone call to Germany to his parents that he was killed while on the back of a motorcycle. Tampa Florida May 5, 1978

  15. Even in the days before computational fluid dynamics computer software. You’d have thought they’d have at least simply ‘flowed benched’ the prototypes to discover the inferior numbers.

  24. Around 1981, I designed and built a custom, 12 speaker car stereo system, that at the time was quite impressive. A friend of mine encouraged me to wait to execute the design and construction of the stereo given potential advances in technology, at which time I told him…. “If I wait for advances….I’ll never have a stereo”

  25. I think the plaid is 7.5:1 gear reduction

  28. Another benefit of an external wastegate: Control higher volume of exhaust ( larger high performance engines) than an internal style wastegate can control
