How do you get pressure in a two stroke without just blowing everything straight out the exhaust?

My question is why? I'd think it's not good for much but going in a straight line.

You are probably correct Rory, its looks like its on the salt flats for record breaking speed runs.

IF it works .. I Wonder what Boost pressure it runs at??
Mazda Rotaries (2 strokes operating as claimed 4 strokes) run ~6 psi for Drag engines...and reputedly the All Out Mazda Factory Lemans racers were at 8 psi.
A VW Jetta is at 12 psi

Scrap that question, I have just googled two stroke turbo engines to see how its done.

There was a turbo maybe banshee build back in the day that was working towards bolt on kits. Big power with reliability compared to a stroker kit. It looked very interesting. Something I wanted to look into further one day...

Id like a forced induction build, Im a big fan of it... my daily driver has both a supercharger and a turbo. If only there was a bolt on kit that would only need a bit of fettling :/
