one of the first turbo'd US production engines i remember was about a '62 buick starfire. it had water injection. are telling me that the first one was done right, and we have gone down hill ever since.


On a different note: why not take two pistons, rods and 4 cam followers out of one these tubo'd 4cylinder's. Wouldn't that keep it out of the waste gate, and on low boost and be eco as heck?
