General question: Is there any point in using a turbocharger to slow the exhaust pulse and act as
a noise reduction device?? Carrying on from that, can you use the turbo (with gearing) to drive a
alternator, water pump, vacuum pump, fuel pump, etc. If as the evidence suggests that 50% of power
goes out the exhaust, is it feasible to use the turbocharger to drive the propellor via  a
reduction gear???

Works great. One of the reasons I am going with a turbo. Not to
mention high altitude cruise advantages.
