yep , a 2 stage compression , but a lotta complication , and maybe no more power output , it'll depend on the amount of losses through the various systems , the blower would need to flow considerably more than the centrif comp wheel to increase an IC engines power output .

So it could be done it just needs to be a big blower one thing i can see being a problem is the turbine housing being a restriction but a few 60mm external Westgates set to dump gas at the turbos peak would help and they could still go through the power turbine yep , a 2 stage compression , but a lotta complication , and maybe no more power output , it'll depend on the amount of losses through the various systems , the blower would need to flow considerably more than the centrif comp wheel to increase an IC engines power output . |

Usually the positive displacement blowers have fairly low efficiency so it might be hard to make it work, but in theory it should be possible.

As much as i want to put this in the bike i just think ill need more power.it was originally made to fit the kart i might leave the bike for a more powerful engine.still a jet but something a bit more refined.  |

I think a bike gearbox is out of the question here but i would like to use the reduction from one and make a small reduction box possibly with a clutch on the outside for launching off the line lol.

Found a nice little pic of what my power turbine should look like  |

Yeah the expansion pipe into the combustion chamber is a neat solution!!
