I lined the inside of my SS heat exchangers with little tiny ball bearings that spin to allow the exhaust stream to exit the heat exchangers at a much higher velocity.

I think that they doubled my power at the very least according to the latte-o-meter which splashed hot latte in my lap from the increased power.

When the spinning turbo prop is placed on the end of the exhaust pipe, I expect the exhaust gasses to spin the prop and to increase the exhaust flow even more.

At some point, I expect the gas tank to start filling up from the increased efficiency.

You forgot to add for the additional Thrust you recieve from the "turbo" tailpipe. This is a perk based on the exiting exhaust velocity will be faster than the speed of the car. It should be good for 10% better fuel milage 15% on a yellow car (everyone knows yellow is the fastest and more effiecent color).

You might also want to try getting some Magnetic Fuel Line Clamp, they are supposed to get up to 10% better fuel milage.

The only downside is:


Everyone knows you can't turbo a 'teener. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
