Posted for "George Braly" <gwbraly@gami.com>:

  
  Naf,
  
  There are compressor maps for these compressors.
  
  I have looked at them.  I would be surprised if they were anywhere near the
area of instability delineated on the compressor maps.
  
  The only turbosupercharged piston engine installation  that I have ever 
heard
of having this problem is the  L IVP aircraft.
  
  Regards,  George

  I would suspect a compressor stall rather than the turbine.  Most of my
  exciting bangs in pure jets have been from the compressor stalling.
