         Matt,
         I'm no expert on Turbo, but I believe that some turbo's are
    already
         remotely
         located in some cars.
         There will be some loss of exhaust energy over a distance, but that
         is more
         than offset with lower heat, greater life expectancy, and for
         normalizing
         (higher RPM) it's the way to go. Now where to put it is another
    matter.

    Thanks George.  I agree with you.  Maybe the benefits outweigh the
    risks..

    I posted this a few messages ago:

    They have a remote mount turbo system, not that I am saying any single
    component from them would be useful on an airplane.  Just that such a
    system has been used and apparently it performs well enough to sell..
    The pictures on their website are intriguing.


    Regards,

    Matt-

    Here is an interesting diagram.

Thanks Paul!  Those are great!


Matt-

One advantage is you can use a really BIG turbo charger :)
