	Aw, I ferget.

	Well, I drive a Caravan, with a PT6-114A.  It moves pretty well,
	and I use the tank sumpings in my 91 Jetta NA, or my 03 Jetta TDI.

	Oh, the afterburner.  A 100 lb propane tank, with liquid
	propane injection just after the turbo, and before the 
	ignitor.  The ignitor module doubles as an anti-theft device.
	The Jetta does move, when you kick in the liquid propane 
	injector.
