Default Got my turbo project rolling...

I found the turbo I'm gonna be building a system off of.



I'm gonna have to put it in the bed or something.

It's just another one we pulled. They are from F-15's. They use some of the jet exhaust to run the A/C and some of the ice defelctors. Crazy **** man, we fired one up on a 454 testor and the noise was nuts. We had to put on ear muffs.

Yep, bolt it to the bed right behind the cab. Then run the exhaust up to it. Then just run a smoke stack exhaust up behind the cab like a semi truck.

Better send it to me first so I can make sure it's in good working order for Brian.

Guy guys, I'm just messing around. That thing makes around 100 lbs of boost. It is used for the ac and junk but also to pressurize the cabin. It would be insane in an automotive application. You'd have to use some sort of pass thru design to keep the pressure down. It spools under VERY little pressure so no lag at all. Just another insane idea. Maybe somebody will pick it up and run with it.

Yeah, I know you were kidding but, it was fun to think about.

I just had a flashback of the LSF15
