The Auburn was a supercharger not a turbo-supercharger. I was curious about turbos specifically.
And I knew turbos were used in airplanes and trucks long before we saw them on the street. BTW read "The Power to Fly" by LJK Setwright (hope I remembered that right) regarding turbocharging.
Dave, I have no idea why the General decided to turbo all aluminum V8 engines. They did have water/alcohol into the intake though to cool the charge. Ran out quickly....
