Calling Engineers (turbo idea)

Keep in mind it would take a large amount of energy to spin the turbine at a point where it would generate boost. And what you would end up with is basically this:

With possibly the benefit of a turbo assuming it worked as well as a conventional turbo.

Given the tolerances, and speeds one would be hard pressed to make it reliable or spin fast enough. Might as well look into twin-charging at that point.

basically what he wants to do is make a procharger that run and makes boost at low rpms and then once rpms start to climb, have the exhaust turbine take over as it exceeds the speed of pulley. Its really not a terrible idea in theory.
