  • look up "Rover jet car"

  • No rollcage, no firesuit, if anything goes wrong your toast....

  • What happens when that thing hits 88mph?

  • @pfleeger2010 it hits 89 mph, then 90 and so on up to about 130

  • @krugtech Does it still need roads where it's going?

  • @pfleeger2010 Then you will see some serious shit.....that last one of these was attacked by Spanish conquistadors when it went back in time, and revered by the Mayans as "the chariot of fire", hence the inscriptions in the temples. Also as a minor note...the last "turbo van" accidently ran over the mason who made the Mayan calendar before he could start chizzling year "2013" on the tablet. The Chieftan figured that it was a sign that their time was over, beware of the jet van!

  • @Metromechanic Has it been hiding in a cave until it was found in the 1950s?

  • @pfleeger2010 Apperently it was discovered by Indiana Jones.....but yes, it was in a cave.

  • @Metromechanic It has become a Mayan artifact.

  • @Metromechanic Of course, of course what better place to hide it?

  • I wanna see the Van vs the Hearse @ the house of HOOK

  • @DangerousToysll if Ernie is up for it I'll run the van against his hearse. I'm thinking I'll trounce him in the 1/8 but he'll blow by me before the 1/4.

  • The kids will never be late to school or a soccer game!

  • @Joseph9536 dude, you're lie the 256th person to say that. I NEVER GET TIRE OF HEARING IT! the van is the overly domesticated vehicle from hell.

  • soccer mom be aware this van is available for limited time only LOLOLOLOL

  • I call BS. The rear end wouldn't drop down from rocket boost. It dropped down from the drive train torquing the rear wheels. I'm at least 75% sure this is fake!

  • @98SAS4runner the stock engine drives the front wheels, the turbine drives the rear wheels through a custom drive setup. There's no thrust from the exhaust. Check the other video or go to National Geographic's Mad Scientist, thye have video of the van doing a nice burnout on their site somewhere.

  • @krugtech gotcha, I was looking at jet videos and this popped up. I spoke too soon as I thought this was a rocket. That thing is awesome. I later looked at your street bike!!! What you do is pretty amazing.

  • @98SAS4runner Your a DUMB ASS....

  • Minivan 751 cleared for takeoff

  • attention houston we got a lift up

  • As you can tell by the bumper sticker, she's a badass soccer mom.

  • go back up your missing the video

  • what are you trying to do? get your kids to soccer practice in 3 seconds?

  • That would get me to soccer practise faster

  • hey, soccer moms gotta get to practice fast.

  • Dear Santa,

  • GET TO THE CHOPPA!

  • that thing LAUNCHED. haha

  • @BenzRules10 after a few days on the road there's crap all over the dashboard. One of those launches clears it off nicely

  • damn i thought he was going to travel back in time...

  • why wuold you do that to a van do it to a truck!

  • Man, just hearing that big turbine spool up makes me smile. I'll bet you need a grinectomy after you are in the van driving. There is something about turbines that cause some of us to just go nuts! I found a guy on the net who built a small shaft turbine from a car turbo and then made his own output shaft turbine and housing. It was very nicely done and he put it on a golf cart like unit he built himself too. It showed him on one of the desert playas somewhere having a ball.

  • @badmoonryzn ha haa ha that was RCDon and the turbotug! He'll be on NatGeo's Mad Scientist next month, I was on last month! Don's crazy!

  • @badmoonryzn I agree, the spool-up of the turbines is awesome. I'm thinking of taking a Prius or a Chevy Volt and putting a small turbine generator into it for kicks.

  • Awesooooooooooooome! . . . but impractical

  • Can't resist the sound of a gas turbine ramping up its rpm!!!!!!

  • @27mlc I'm with you, I never get tired of that sound.

  • Wait... is that turbine engine sucking air behind your seats? I salute you, because you sir are clearly beyond nuts.

  • @lophilip this turbine doesn't really suck that much. You could put your hand near the intake and nothing will happen. I put a firewall in anyway in case it backfired through the intake or something.

  • @krugtech Oh.... well I still salute you for building this thing!

  • Soccer moms...all thinking their stupid vans are good...I'll show them...I'LL SHOW THEM ALL!

  • @PizzaPirateNinja8128 If anything I would like anyone stuck driving a minivan to feel a little better about it. Mini vans got a bum rap. They're great vehicles. This one is built like a brick shit house, look what i did to it and it takes it!

  • @krugtech True. Reminds me of a Need for Speed challenge: A rival low on the Blacklist posted a time of 3:25 on this time trial. Show them up with just a minivan and a bottle of nitrous! It was one of the funnest ones. Minivans are useful. Shipping loads without burning as much fuel as an SUV. Only problem is they don't handle serious terrain.

  • wouldnt the internal cabin pressure kill the person driving?

  • @rocky1556 this turbine isn't anywhere big enough to do something like that

  • hey, i saw you on tv!

  • @phantom1000A Was it on Nat Geo?

  • @krugtech yes!

  • @phantom1000A I hope you liked it. I had a lot of fun making it. Please watch more!

  • 1/4 mile or gtfo lolololololololol

  • @kenshin98 10.95 at 128 aint bad for a van. Who runs 10's on p215R65-17 Kelly Explorer radials :) Yes it's wheel powered not thrust powered.

  • @krugtech i would personally say thats 11's. but damn, that really good. put a ricer 747 wing on the back and take off!!!

  • Only in a dodge

  • lost 80% of his place and got a super car noise

  • :( I wish I had just piles of jet engines laying around to do stuff with.

  • the kids will never be late to soccer practice now!

  • @tintsnmore but theirs no room for seats in the back

  • @hellmen163 strap them to the roof! lol

  • @tintsnmore lol

  • Now THAT was COOL!!

  • Mom i need to get to soccer practice im late!

    Mom: To the Jetmobile!

  • Every soccer moms dream.

  • Why?

  • That thing has pretty good acceleration (Its 1/8 mile time is a bit better than the Ford GT).  This would be a great idea on a sports car (if you can get around the size issue).

  • DAMMITT!!! And i scrapped my old Chrysler Van!!!! I coulda put a turbine in it!! --maybe I could get it back... the tranny's still good... wipers don't work though...

  • Meant to say: "Soccer ball sticker - nice touch"!

  • Soccer ball - nice tough!

  • is that allowed on the road??

  • For god's sake where your bloody seat belt. The compressor will eat a human.

  • @mrbinary1001 this compressor will eat maybe a few fingers if the person willing to loose them tries really hard and has a real small hand.

  • The shit people do these days lmao

  • @308beatZ it's not shit, it pointless shit. That's important.

  • LOL@ SOCCER STICKER

    

  • too much monster garage for you son....lol

  • i bet you that transmission didnt last a week

  • @BlackAstonMartin the transmission lasted 130,000 miles. When the turbine is running the transmission has less work to do. The new transmission should last well past 130,000 miles. The turbine does not drive through the transmission.

  • @BlackAstonMartin Are you fucked? A turbine engine forces air through and propels the van by pushing air out the back....

  • @DK99824 Actually it's you who is fucked. This is a helicopter engine. The thrust out the exhaust couldn't push a small car. The output shaft that used to drive the rotor blades on a heli now powers the rear wheels on this van.

  • @DK99824 Poor kid, he's forgot or never read far enough in the book to learn how a shaft turbine engine works. Turbine turning another turbine, turning a shaft turning the wheels or a rotor on a helicopter, the generator on the farm, the water pump at the levee. I wonder how stupid he feels now. kind of sad

  • @badmoonryzn I agree. he needs that book "the wheels on the bus go round and round" and then maybe after he learns the basics he'll figure it out.

  • "cmon sweetie lets go home"

    "Your mom has the coolest minivan EVER"

  • That van do's not run on red bull.

  • WTF :D

  • All you need to do is build some durable wings, add some elevators, and you're ready to go to the air. Imagine that. Flying cars...

  • @JayN2495 It would need a propeller or another engine. The engine that's in there is a turboshaft, it doesn't make thrust, it turns a shaft which turns the rear wheels. The fire from the exhaust is just for show.

  • i love the soccer sticker in the back

  • Respond to this video... I would never leave home without the soccer sticker. It helps with the deception.

  • @krugtech UHH....deception?? What, do you do, put grocery bags on the 2, 2 foot exhaust pipes comin out the back window?!?!?! Do you just hope people think a jet plane is flying real low somewhere near by?? LOL

  • @Sahadi420 when it's closed up it looks totally stock. I've been stopped by cops twice and they both did not notice anything unusual about the van. look in the krugtech youtube channel then check out 'latest mod to van" or someting like that

  • MiB prototype vehicle.

  • and yet, it's still a minivan......

  • @officialofawesumness Here's a tip- the cops don't expect these things to haul ass. get it?

  • @officialofawesumness that's the best part

  • just think of it this way...

    Kid: IM LATE FOR SOCCOR!

    Mum: QUICK GET IN THE VAN!

    *turns on engines*

    Mum: PREPARE YOURSELF!

    Kid: MEH EARS!!!!!!!!

    Mun: WE R HERE!

    :D

  • Definitely a ricer.

    hahahaha

  • gota reach 88 miles per hour some how u know...

  • it wouldn't be safe for me to have a heli

  • So your Heli now has a 2 litres Diesel Engine...

  • I noticed that you have a license plate. Is it still road legal?

  • Hes wearing a helmet, and a t shirt... wouldn't he be more worried of a fire?

  • Nut job.

  • R.I.P headphone users

  • come on by, we'll go for a ride. So far the cops haven't given me any problems. All the cops in the neighborhood like it, I got one of the cops on a TV show I did which will air on Oct 5th on National Geographic. it's called Mad Scientist. I'm not sure when they will play my episode but from what i hear it came out really well. Everyone please watch it when it comes out! Never been to Germany but I've been to the German part of Switzerland and it was great. I'd like to visit Germany.

  • You what I like about america? That thing is probably road legal over there.......

    Regards from Germany, where absolutely everything has to be in order, or in other words, boring......

  • Thats one way to keep the kids quiet

  • I did it for the same reason Lady Gaga made a hat out of a lobster.

  • @krugtech lmfao!!! XD

  • @krugtech - if u can do that, try putting folding wings under the chassis and stablizer wings in the front to keep it from nose diving to offset the downforce of that huge front end and windshield. I wanna see it fly dangit!

    if you got the engine it would be a crime not to go at least that far....

  • @MrHydrogenblast Maybe put it in a car that has less downforce to minimalize the size of the stabelizer wings...

    im serious man! i want to see someone in my lifetime make a car fly and that is stable in the air....

    oh and use an adjustable suspension so you can raise the ride height so the tires can come out further so you can land safely!

  • @MrHydrogenblast Flying cars- cool! wait a minute...... Housewives on antidepressants in flying cars chatting on the cell phone while doing their makeup....... I'm moving underground

  • ...i dont even know how someone would come up with that..."hmmm.. today i think i will put a helicopter jet turbine in my minivan....."

  • MARTY!!!

  • addition to last comment- jojsdfsdfsd can at any time step down from this coveted position, all he has to do is show some proof that he has some kind of life. I'll even settle for ordinary. I'm sure he doesn't have the street creds to back up his pointless whining. let alone do something unique. jojsdfsdfsd, how come you don't have any uploads on your account? Because there's noting in your life worth sharing? Watch what i do and try to keep up and you'll get better.

  • Announcement! I picked jojsdfsdfsd as pet asshole of the month! Thank you jojsdfsdfsd for reminding me that it's important to have a life. I'm glad you're around to provide contrast as to how a good decent person should live. Everyone take a look at the droppings jojsdfsdfsd has been littering around my channel and tell me what you think! I'm so impressed I may go ahead and award him asshole of the month for nest month right now... yes, he's that good.....at being an asshole! Enjoy!

  • jojsdfsdfsd- what do you have to show for your self? post some of your accomplishments here, then again maybe you don't have anything to show for yourself..... let alone something different and unique. I don't care if I'm broke or anything like that, as long as my life doesn't get to the point where the only thing I have to do is go to other peoples youtube accounts and shit all over the place. You haven't seen me pissed and you're simply not capable of pissing me off but you're welcome to try.

  • @krugtech oh damn, I guess I ran my pet asshole off. jojsdfsdfsd whre are you?!?!? I miss you!

  • You Know These Vans Go Up To 160 Mph...?

  • @bobo123958 even with the turbine mine craps out at about 130. It hits the governor on the turbine, it's geared for the 1/4 mile and I'm afraid to gear it to go faster.

  • The only vehicle capable of actually out-running a police chopper.

  • mini van, mega fun!

  • yeah now just slide your seat back a little

  • back to the future.

  • damn my mom needs this... she would still be slow as fuck

  • @TheOverweightGamer the controls for the turbine are within reach of the passenger seat. When your mom is dragging her ass just reach down, grab the throttle and give mom a few hundred horses to wake her up! Can she steer good? Make sure she knows where the breaks and horn are!

  • love the soccor ticker lol

  • why not just buy airplane shell ?clearly have money.

  • Close the doors and ull get sucked into the turbines XD

  • and a bonus it's nice a quiet

  • Back 2 the future would of really sucked if this van was used in place of a Delorean...

  • u gpt afterburners on that van lol u be melting peoples cars at the light just revin lol

  • My grandma would LOVE to have one of these!

  • activate the flux cap!

  • fake.

  • @jojsdfsdfsd You have no joy left in your life do you?

  • @Invisifly2 dude if its a jet engine. the accerleration is just too slow. its just around the speed of a bugatti.... no wway for such a powerful engine

  • @jojsdfsdfsd Jet engines don't have torque acceleration like dragsters, they need to spool up, but they can surely go very fast very fast once they get going!

  • @EasternMerchant This thing actually makes about 2500 ftlb torque at 0 rpm. it's a free turbine, they make loads of torque. it's also a pretty small jet engine but the free turbine makes it efficient. My friend has a pickup with a thrust jet engine with afterburner, mine is wheel powered. We race, I beat him using only about 3 gallons of fuel to his 30

  • @jojsdfsdfsd it's a SMALL jet engine.

  • @jojsdfsdfsd put your money where your mouth is. $1000 says I'll take this to the dragstrip and run about 120+ in the 1/4 mile in about 11.2 seconds. Pu tup or shut up ha ha ha!

  • @krugtech learn your english before talking to me man

  • @jojsdfsdfsd are your ears really sensitive to pain? Do you like to piss and moan? I'll post a pictur of me and you can find all kinds of shit to bitch about I'm sure. You remind me of a dog who was treated well but insisted on shitting on the carpet. get off the carpet and leave if you don't like it here.

  • @krugtech oh damn the little man with no money is pissed~ haha dont worry man maybe its real who knows, but i can be sure ur a poor little asshole who can only afford a dodge caravan and a second hand heli engine.

    no money is a real sad thing eh?

  • wait so how does this work, is the turbine shaft connected to the driveshaft by some clutch or gearbox?

  • ok kids jump in, just dONT!.....

    

  • arnt helichopter turbines the weaks type of turbine

  • NOBODY needs to get to the PTA that fast

  • holy shit!

    

  • I was waiting for it to fly off....

  • @Luke17CP I hope not!!!

  • Well you can take me for a ride anyday

  • lol if that door was close he would be the exhaust of the engine

  • quote me happy? i'd like to insure my car please..........

  • DMV: Sir how much horsepower does that have?

    Owner: About 2000

  • Why I love america

  • Problem, officer?

  • Rear soccer sticker makes it so much faster.

  • THERE GOES HIS 2MONTH ADVANCE ON FUIL

  • Why.......

  • @htclover15 I'm not realy sure.

  • @krugtech why not?

  • @krugtech because this is merica

  • @htclover15 Why?! Because he can :p

  • mmmm kids would be happy for mum to take them to school in this minivan!

  • it is 0 wheel drive because its not connected to anything.

  • @jaggass think for a minute you idiot. it's a helicopter engine. Remember those rotor blades that hold the helicopter up in the sky? they need lots of SHAFT HORSEPOWER to turn them to hold them up in the air. Shaft horsepower is what cars use to drive the wheels........ A few shafts, sprockets and a chain and guess what? 136 front wheel horsepower, 575 rear wheel horsepower. 21mpg great on long trips

  • this isn't fuel efficient

  • @markmp3z Actually it sets a new standard for fuel economy. It was specifically built with this in mind. A typical jet dragster/funny car uses 50 gallons of fuel on a run. I use about 8.

  • @krugtech i can actually say that is one minivan i would not mind to drive

  • this is what soccer does to people.

  • The way of the future.

  • that will get the kids to soccer in a hurry!

  • Thanks for this. this will be my new motivation for forging on with my own 'junk' when nobody understands why I can't just build something with a small block Chevy, why I need that oddball part instead of lunch for the next week, or through that next "how to get there from here" mechanical issue funk. Cool factor 1 million. Yeah.

  • @JimTheZombieHunter Come by for a ride.Small blocks use pistons, I'm trying to get away from that. This turbine spins over 30,000 rpm, I never get tired of that.

  • haha imagine no seat belt in that car...

  • dude wheres the wings?

  • Why Why Why a minivan....

  • Redneck buggati

  • wel
