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.

Re: Turbo camshafts
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.
