I was talking with some friends about putting turbochargers on a two stroke, and I came across a snowmobile released this year powered by this - The Rotax 850 E-TEC Turbo.
Now this looks like an awesome option for some high DA airstrips, being able to keep 160+hp at 6000ft is pretty impressive.
Do you guys think it'd be feasible to mount one on an experimental? You'd need a reduction gear or belt drive to run a prop, but 160hp at 42kg is an astonishing amount of power.
