I am looking for a very small and light turbo for a two stroke 300cc and 600cc rotary project.
I need it to be light, I know a supercharger would take power from the engine butI also know that most turbos are heavy or very expensive.
I can make my own supercharger from aluminum, but I am worried about the powerit will take from the engine to compress enough air for the boost.
Seems that weight of the turbo and complexity of waste gate and all are one evil,yet no hp taken from the engine for operation is a plus.

and that the hp required to run the supercharger is a evil,but very simple ratio drive belt and  no waste gate assy is a plus.

Which one? advice and recommendations?

You got me there. I recommend


"The Turbochargers" how-to book, written by Hugh Macinnes, will show you how to select and install the correct turbocharger for big or small horse-power gains. If you want more power, a turbo may be the solution you are looking for and this book will definitely help you.

This book also covers turbo design, sizing and matching. Controls, carburetion, exhaust, ignition, intercooling, marine and high-altitude applications.

And unlike other DIY turbo guides, this one covers much more than just car engines. You'll find information on truck, diesel, motorcycle and marine applications, to name a few.

The /Turbochargers/ how-to guide is the most comprehensive turbocharger book available, and you will also find information related to turbo suppliers and kit-maker addresses.

If you want to turbocharge your motor, this is the guide you need!
