Equinox F1 turbo - old school engine development

These old Equinox shows on You Tube are worth watching , where Cosworth developed their Turbo F1 engines in the 1980s. Started off with a 4 cylinder, pressurised with air from a compressor outside the building, went bang in a fairly terminal way.

Shows the early days of ECUs too, the size of suitcases! Interesting shows though.
