well thrust... but hell why not? haha.

For use with what?

As a turbinecharger. Imagine the numbers with that in front of a large front mount intercooler.

So.... How can we turn this into a force fed induction system? :coo3l:

Found this one at 55lbs ;)

Anyone got 6k to throw around? lol

That's what you do with a couple of those. :D

strap it to the back of an office chair and go for a ride?

Um wouldn't the oxygen be used up already before forcing it into the engine?

Yes.

This is a turbine engine. It's compressing and igniting the fuel/oxygen inside the turbine. It's spitting out VERY hot, non combustible exhaust gasses. This not a turbo by any means.

Exactly, here is a link to a more "simplified version"

The only way to make this work would be to have the exiting gasses entering the turbine side of a non jet engine turbocharger, but wouldn't be of much use seeing as our engines do a well enough job of pushing our little hair dryers. Not to mention doubling everything up from throttle to fuel source would just be a pain in the ass.
