Tony,

You where claiming every bit of the energy used to drive the turbo
was free.  That is not true. I will but the part about the heat
being used to drive the turbo - but you did not say that - someone
else did.  I will now buy that part of the energy (don't know
what part - guess around 1/2 is free) All you claimed was it was 
all free all the hp used by a supercharger could be gotten completly
free with a turbo.  This statement is WRONG.   You could not explain
where the energy was coming from so it could be free.   That was
what I was trying to figure out.  And also,  if I only have the time 
for "curt" appearing one word answers, I don't post, I wait until
I can post complete answers, and I check where the thread has gone.
