Default a turboed R/C car?

since im a ------ broke lil niglet, i think it'd be cool to turbo my rc. its an rc10-gt2. the engine's plenty broke in, its a .15. has anyone ever heard of doing this? ive heard they make superchrgers for monster trucks. its fast already, but there's no such thing as too fast

anyways, i might be wrong, but i think its possible.

I've always thought that'd be a cool idea, but good luck finding a turbo that small.

Let us know how you're going to deal with turbocharging a 2-stroke first... Yes, it can be done.

Intake and Exhaust ports are open at the same time. So your boost will just go in one side of the sleeve and then out the other.
Just get a bigger motor, it'll cost less and the gains will be much more.
