Message	you might be interested in the e-turbo concept Garrett has been working on (ever since wrestling the technology away from Turbodyne). [ http://www1.eere.energy.gov/vehiclesandfuels/pdfs/adv_engine_2004/2004_advanced_engine_4.pdf ] [ http://www1.eere.energy.gov/vehiclesandfuels/pdfs/deer_2004/session1/2004_deer_shahed.pdf ] This is not a leaf-blower relabeled as an electric turbo. This is a turbo with variable nozzle technology and electric-assist spoolup. I've been watching its progress since 2001... - John
