    Dang, are you saying we can't build a turbocharger combustion engine in SP? ;-) @BRuthless

    Kind of, but not really. It would be hard to get a gearbox working in SP, especially because the rotators have a limited rotation speed on free spin, making gear ratios obsolete. Also trying to rotate something faster than that limit will rip it off the rotators.
