Interesting concept. Its like a combustion water wheel.

think how nice it would be if they made one the size of a 4.6

Drop one of those suckers in my new boat! Be skiing at 120mph.

Even though it weighs so much less, the gas mileage would have to be a little better. It would be cool to see if those made it into production.

I'll be more excited when the words " would reportedly have" are changed to "has" :
"A 14-inch, 150-pound MYT would reportedly have the same power as a 32 cylinder diesel engine — putting out 858 horsepower"

IOW, when this thing goes from a "great idea" to a working, functioning, vehicle powerplant. If it is so easy and cheap to make, why isn't there a go-kart at least running off it? I've seen the thing more than once over the years, and have yet to see a running version, much less one powering a vehicle.

looks like a neat concept. they need to work on them more and get something into testing and production and see how they work
