Is that a homemade turbine? Not that I've seen to many turbines. But that looks like a turbo with fuel injection and a spark plug.

thats a home made jet engine, using a turbo. i think there were some posts about that type of thing, but if u think about it a turbo is pretty similar to a jet turbine. one of those tanks are probably propaine.

Here's the home page of the kart owner. It's a big-*** turbo turned into a turbine engine. The site kinda explains how to do it - good thing I don't have a big-*** turbo layin' around to try it!
