So you need a little more power? I found this cool gadget from a tip on the German Bus Forum, and thought I'd tell you guys about it too. It's an electrical turbocharger, powered by an electrical motor instead of the exhaust pressure. It is said to be applicable for both normally aspirated and turbo engines, both gasoline and diesel, and controls the pressure from feedback from the engine. Only drawback is the price, $1500+. Take a look at it yourself: http://www.turbodyne.com PerL 87 Syncro 112i |
