aha!  of course it is the exhaust gasses that spin the silly little
thing.  I assumed (incorrectly that) that high rpms meant high gasses.
wrong!  Thanks to all those who responded to me:

	gcc-milo!zrm (Zigurd R. Mednieks)
	rti-sel!amr (Alan Roberts)
	seismo!USC-ISIB.ARPA!JDEIFIK (Jeff Deifik)
	moncol!ben (Ben Broder)
	abnji!saab (dennis)
	amdcad!phil (Phil Ngai)

(Jeff, it pz, not ps, lucky Postmaster was in a good mood that day...)


So the moral of the story is...

If you want more boost,
you need a large amount of exhaust gases
which are cutoff by closing the throttle
so therefore...

	keep on chargin!

(don't let up on the throttle, EVER! :-)

Conshohocken, Pennsyvania.  Thay also make aluminum baseball bats.  I
read about super chargers in a R&T collecters classic on MG a few years
back.  I know abouthte bats because I've held one in my hand.  (I won't
claim to have hit a ball with it ever, I tried...)
