The blades on the turbine are thrown off because of a combination of extra high
rotary exhaust heat and high turbine RPM. A stock turbo charger tachometer from
Garrett solves the problem by putting a 80,000 RPM red line on the turbo charger.

Yes the specs are OK but they just do not want to make a higher power
blade. Some day they might.
No but I did not call him since I sent the cracked KIS Cruiser windshield to him
a week ago. He should have it by now. I'll also send him a copy of this.

I'll call Monday if you remind me.
We spent the last two days installing the turbo tach in the compressor housing.
It was mostly a learning experience so the next one we do will go faster.
It is tricky to do. It required some expensive accessories for the Bridgeport
not to mention a rare 6 mm .5 metric tap.
It is in the welders now. More pictures on Monday.
