George,
   do I infer from this that you also question the turbine stall theory?

  Naf,

  There are compressor maps for these compressors.

  I have looked at them.  I would be surprised if they were anywhere near
the
area of instability delineated on the compressor maps.

  The only turbosupercharged piston engine installation  that I have ever
heard
of having this problem is the  L IVP aircraft.

  Regards,  George

  I would suspect a compressor stall rather than the turbine.  Most of my
  exciting bangs in pure jets have been from the compressor stalling.
