[FlyRotary] Re: boost
----- may look into is an
Airdyne, it has its own oiling and doesn't require oil from the
engine.
I use these on snowmobiles as
they have no oil.
Another advantage of these is
that in the event of a turbo bearing or seal failure it would not
drain your crank case.

Ken, is this the same one as the
"areocharger" turbo that uses a housing you fill with turbin
oil? No oil lines, no coolant lines and I believe it has a
variable turbin flow mechanism that provides gobs of boost at low
rpm. I checked into that as it sounded idea for an aircraft, but
was told they didn't recommend it for a rotary. Would be
interested if anyone has actually put one on a rotary (airplane, car
or boat).

It probably doesn't have Inconel wheels so it wont hold up
to the heat.
