Message I can't see a turbocharger turbine moving enough air to generate enough thrust to get this contraption off the ground. People that have built homemade jet engines out of truck turbochargers usually get from 50-100 lbs of thrust out of them, and that's with an afterburner. With a larger compressor I'd imagine that this would have more thrust, but this suit looks heavy. I just don't see this being able to lift the suit plus a person.
