That thing makes 0.236 horsepower per pond.
A small twin-pack turbine for a military helicopter will make almost 25 horsepower per pound.

I'll take the turbine.

New Jork City used to have monstrous diesels running on---ee-yeww!----"sewer-gas". From garlic and hot-sauces to....to....ELECTRICITY!---or was that "electrish*tty"? (That's it J---! No more lightin' fahts our there in Freezone, Collie-fohnya!:
