helicopter turbine for turbo

Recommended Posts

Standard Jet Ranger engine has available

460 SHP max for take off

320 SHP max continuous

Engine itself is minute but the gearboxes are quite bulky.

Biggest problem (exception of very hot exhaust gas tempertures) is the throttle lag!!! GT's do not respond like a BEC!

When Rover ran the Gas Turbine car at LeMan back in the 60's Graham Hill reconded the lag was something like 2 to 3 secs!!!

Quite a bit less then than the Dax Cobra demo car, Barry would like that, 500ci, 500 bhp and some large torque figure that escapes me right now, but enough to pull your huse down   :laugh:
