Peripheral ported turbo street engine

Is anyone here running a peripheral ported turbocharged engine in their street car? How hardcore are you! come on!

Or do you know of anyone who is?

Working at it...

I have strange and wonderful things happening in my workshop. Nothing that will be on the road anytime in the next year or two. Let's just say I hope to have a nice 20th birthday present for my '85.

They are made by a company called REVOL(or Revolution). About $2000 for 2 modded rotor housing and lower intake manifold where it meets the engine.
