like those inline fan thingys
Dont know if they gave up on the idea but i know BMW were experimenting with a tri turbo engine for the new m3 one of which was electric. Problem is, the motor needs to be so powerful, its drawing about 80amps so needs a major major alternator on it! Or possibly a second alternator just to drive the turbo.
