Definitely something I’ve always wanted to make and why not have a feature about it at the same time.

Who’s down?

I wonder what turbo to start with.

Also could be put into a gokart later on as a form of propellant.

Found a lead on how to.

Doesn’t seem that hard, just tedious and fine tuning to get it right after the build.

Go kart

What is needed

Coil thats wired to be a constant source  
Injector  
Car battery (deep cycle most likely)  
Sparkplug/Coil plug  
Oil to cool the turbo  
Fuel pump to pump the oil  
Ignition canister

Lots of beer :lol
