R&D - USA - The PowerLabs homebuilt Jet Turbine research
Beverly Hills,CA,USA -American Chronicle -10 Sept 2006: -- On this page you will see how we went about converting a turbocharger into a homebuilt turbine. DISCLAIMER: This is a very dangerous project... "The initial goal of this project was to construct a reliable turbine from a diesel truck turbocharger. This essentially entails the creation of a means to deliver and ignite fuel into a custom made combustion chamber, creating a high pressure oil delivery system for the turbo shaft and bearings, a thrust nozzle and all other associated equipment required to safely and reliably convert the turbo into a self sustaining turbine..."(Photo: Osanan L.
