How can turboing a Hummer give you better gas mileage and more HP?

Foolish questioned:

My ancient soccer coach has a Hummer. He was telltale me how he was inane to place a turbo on it. He said by doing this he would get more HP and better gas mileage.

With gas at over $4/gal, you don’t see too many Hummers on the road these days, do you? Auto dealerships say they can’t sell their give of SUVs, and the public who come in to trade in their SUVs can’t get beans for them, the trade-in regard is so low.

Kassy questioned:

Delight keep in mind that these are to be twisted into limos, I just don’t want to turn one and then end up not using it in view of the fact that of gas prices. A fussy description on “why” would be valued as well, but you don’t have to. Be grateful you! p.s. I’m leaning towards a Send-finder

“Here are no wits why you must get one.

Public who say this is enviromentally friendly are not educated about the real deal of hybrid cars. They are the most polluted cars on the planet.

Just assembling a hybrid car makes more emissions than assembling a Hummer and driving one for 100,000 miles. Why? In view of the fact that making the many batteries and the administer. Just one battery has to make 4 trips to uncommon countries.

Plus, you have to handbook 20 being just to really save cash on fuel. 10 for a diesel.”

also another business that would be really excellent is if you may maybe tell me reasons why public reflect hybrid cars are excellent and then tell my how theyre incorrect that would help alot. or if you have anything else on why it is not cost efficient that would help too
i really really need a source from where that came from
