Thats cool,

I have always like turbo chargers, have owned 6 turboed cars in my life. I want to build a 240SX someday. Also want to turbo a motorcycle or 2.

People think how awesome it would be to have 500/600whp, but the truth is, you can't put down any more than 350whp on the street. They are just so efricient. Tons of torque, and you don't even have to really work the motor. Unfortunately nobody has one small enough to work on a scoot.
If I get a wild hair maybe I will try to make one. The tough thing is gettin ahold of a 5 axis milling machine w/o going broke.
