Hi Paul,

               I was watching with amusement the views of the public at the ozzie F1 race in Melbourne, the first to use [turbo] compound. Guess what ? they hated the sound !! Too muted !! I thought to myself what an ideal application for a [TC] 20B !! they have sound aplenty !! You could get in there first !!

what do you think ??

It would make a great F1 engine. Unfortunately Mercedes, Ferrari (Fiat) and Renault
would not go for it. They are major sponsors to the tune of 100's
of millions of USD. Each team spends up to 800 million USD per year.
Needless to say I cannot afford it and neither can Mazda.

Noise is HP. If you get the noise out you are getting HP out.
For example: stereo speakers are rated in watts.
One HP is 746 watts.

A turbo charger makes a great muffler for a pusher
aircraft. You should consider it. I predict you will
get noise complaints on your 2 rotor powered
Long EZ.


BTW the Renault engine is not made by Renault. It is made
by a private engine company in the UK. Renault gives them money.
Tons of money :)
