I've been trying to determine correct turbo size for my project. Man,
it's tough to get answers. I've found two successful projects that size
the turbo 1.3 times bigger than normal. This reportedly prevents
destruction from overspeed of turbine in aircraft operation. Picked up
book by Hugh Macinnes.....how disappointing. He mentions sizing for
aircraft..but says "beats me".
