Been toying with the idear of building an engine with 4 hx35,s useing one big ft for the bike the ft could mount in the frame and the turbos up front in the breeze in theory it could work.there was a web site called sals turbojet years back with one cad drawn it looked awsome again in theory it could work and make like 300+ hp but starting it might be a task.

Yes, starting would be "interesting" :-)
The only problem with using multiple gas producers is size and weight ..............but it does have bragging rights .
Cheers

Yep , lotsa turbos .
Sal was an active Member of the old Yahoo DIY Gas Turbines Group , he did nice graphics, I remember them well :-)
I think the bulk of a multi turbo gas producer would make it hard to mount in limited space , it'd be a lotta work and the vehicle might not go any faster than a smaller more compact engine where frontal area can be kept to a minimum .
Andy Ms new engine will only be 10 inch dia , but with 3 lbs/sec flow, the power output vs frontal area will be very good .

You can , but make sure its of a fairly large radius and that its cross sectional area is a lot bigger than your turb exducer so as to keep gas velocity and losses low , its not an ideal scenario.

Ok it was just so the kart would roll when i test thrust but i can put it on a trolley of some sort if its better thanks.
