oh yeah and
<dont really know to much about physics but...>I know its just a dumb ebay toy but like if you were really trying to make that and have it go somewhere, wouldnt those jets not get ANY air like that?</waytoolongtagtoclose>

Holy crap!

If I had known about this a week ago, I would totally be spending the next year driving around in my ROCKET CAR instead of going to college. I mean, if I am going to be a mechanical engineer, I would learn more from maintaining that thing for a year than I would from some dumb university, right? Holy crap.

Also, <mechanerd>those small turbines probably don't breathe much more air than the stock engine they replace so I would imagine that if you're burning jet fuel there is sufficient intake. Maybe you would need to cut a hole in the hood all turbocharger-style for ordinary diesel, I don't know. </mechanerd>

the thing is that its MR though, so those turbines are in the back, but yeah mr2s have some trouble with air intake with a normal motor so i dunno heh, but you're right about the jetfuel, some jp5 or whatever can take CRAZY high compression right?
