Turbo-charged Tractors. The first practical turbosupercharger for heavy-duty tractors and earthmovers has been developed by Los Angeles' Garret Corp.

Primarily developed for Caterpillar Tractor of Peoria, Ill., the supercharger reportedly boosts heavy-duty diesel-engine output by 50%, trebles the tractor's work capacity.
