Doesn't Garrett have a forthcoming "electric assist" turbo, too?

Every one hates the L----A----G!


Who needs "assist"..... or an exhaust turbine for that mater. No moe egts to wory about :)
I hope KERMA is doin a little R&D on this as well.

Press Release said:
For the motorist it simply means having the economy of a small engine with the performance of a big engine. For example, in a high gear there is typically a 40 per cent reduction in 70-100kph (45-65mph) acceleration times. This is worth around seven seconds in a 1.2-litre car with a six-speed gearbox.
:cool:

there actually are some really good electric turbos/superchargers in development...I'm not talking about the silly things they sell on ebay.
