Therefore, you will never produce any net power to help push the car.
And turbochargers don't produce more power from smaller displacement engines when needed while permitting lower fuel consumption when cruising vs. large displacement engines.

And regenerative braking justs wastes all that tire warming heat by recharging hybrid batteries.
