Hi Paul and everyone,

I got a question for you....
How much horsepower can you get from a Turbo'ed 20B at say 2500 to 2700 RPM at a reasonable boost level running 100LL???
Thanks,

You got me there Blake. I would guess less than 150 HP but maybe a bit more.
Not a good power to weight ratio as you have to add in the weight of exhaust
manifold and turbo. Course you would save the 35 to 65 pound weight of a PSRU.
As I under stand it the Power sport PSRU is 65 pounds and the Ross about
35 pounds. Tracy's is somewhere between the two.

Does anyone know where a dyno curve for a turbo'ed 20B might lurk?
