you run the b16 intake cam as the exhaust cam and the type ARRRR intake cam for the intake

For example, in the very first paragraph of the introduction to his famous Maximum Boost To My Wallet, Corkshite Bellcrap proudly proclaims that it is heat that drives a turbine.

Well, any riceboy with a blowtorch can prove that one wrong. Flow drives the turbine, pure and simple. Cork is an idiot.

hmm, umm go to the garrett website and look around, you'll find that they say the same thing, that it's heat and flow that drive the turbine. Now i wonder who knows more

I do.

You can't drive the turbo with a blowtorch, but you can with flow from an air compressor.

Heat is a good way to store energy, but until it's made the thermodynamic conversion to PRESSURE it means ---- all, and has nothing to do with spooling a turbo.

Wet steam @ 450 deg F > equal mass of exhaust gas at 1500 deg F, for creating pressure. By several orders of magnitude.
