It's brilliant. It's kind of like a supercharger/turbocharger hybrid but with incredible tuning capabilities.

No SC-ish engine drag, uses exhaust to capture energy to spin generator and uses electricity from said generator to spin turbine.

No Turbo lag because the electric motor won't have lag

No need for BoV because the turbine speed can be computer controlled.

Dear Subaru/BMW or whomever... please make this work.
