You were to stick this monster onto a 20VT engine? I know it's not possible but theoretically, if you could, would it ever get on boost, or would it just never spool up?

Oh, and no I'm not considering it! just interesting, y'know?



Coopless!

I don't think it would spool, as that turbo seems to be good for about 1500bhp, so you would need revs, lots of revs to even to get it to spool

If it spooled up - watch as all sorts of things get sucked into the intake vent - birds, dogs, trees, small children (in push chairs. ha haa
