My friend once drove a Fiat 131 mirafiori, but then he wanted to make it go faster. So he heart of this nitrous oxide stuff, so what did my friend do. 1: get big bottle of NOS probably stolen from a dentist. 2: put it on the floor behind seats ( not secured ) 3: route a copper pipe from the tank to the engine 4: stick end of copper pipe into carb 5: go for a drive, get to a decent speed, then reach behind the seat and open the valve. Resulting in something undefined and a Fiat car that came to a stop sort of on top of what remained of the engine block.  |

For a brief time in my life, I assembled turbo expanders like that. Many were big enough that we had to climb inside (quite a bit bigger than the unit on that truck) to work on them, they make an unbelievable amount of noise at 50k+ rpm!

I have worked on house sized ship engines, and that there turbo dwarf anything i have seen. TBH i think it is a hoax. This is about as large as turbo as i have ever "worked" on, and by "work" i mean every day i had to flush the exhaust side with water to loosen scales, which was a breeze comparing to do the same way up in the exhaust stack, where it was so warm the 3 minutes or so it took to blow some green powder into the exhaust system ( also to loosen scales ) was more than enough and you hightailed it out of there. I will estimate the temperatures up there was 70 - 80 degrees, and thats damn hot even if you are just wearing shorts and a T-shirt as you cant work in overalls in a hot engine room as that just get soaked with sweat in 30 minutes. Do note in this pic the turbo are a little in the foreground Vs the 2 persons, so it appear even bigger than it is.  https://www.zmescience.com/science/b...-engine-world/ How to fix.
