Fubar231 Posted April 19, 2010 Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Wonder how the engines going to hold up as the altitude in the airplane increases as they fly it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FyrhzrdGT Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Pretty sure this is a repost, too. It was on Hotrod TV on TNN about two years ago. Either he hasn't gotten far with it or the pics are old. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Wonder how the engines going to hold up as the altitude in the airplane increases as they fly it. That's the point of the turbo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unfunnyryan Posted April 20, 2010 Report Share Posted April 20, 2010 Wonder how the engines going to hold up as the altitude in the airplane increases as they fly it. That's the point of the turbo. This isn't a high altitude cruiser. Its a stunt plane if anything. That turbo is there for power, although it could be used to compensate for atmospheric pressure loss.

Of course it's there for power; it ain't there for looks. Compensating for atmospheric pressure is adjusting for altitude. Not to mention, you don't have to go that high up to start losing some serious power. Just an FYI, but turbos and nitrous started out in the aeronautical industry as a means to 1. combat air density changes and 2. decrease climb times.

HAOLE Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 (edited) Here is what I don't like about this set up. 1. No back up for the ignition system. Lycomings use a dual magneto system for a reason. 2. The whole system is dependent on a single serpentine belt system. Good idea for the road, bad idea for the air. If the belt breaks in the ground, you coast to the side of the road, in the air you need to look for a field to land in. 3. I am not a fan of liquid cooled aircraft. More moving parts=less reliable. 4. Automotive engines are not designed to be ran at high output levels over long periods of time.
