The 5-cyl turbo engines *ARE* interference engines! I have 10 very nice
custom-bent Ur-Q valves and also 5 way-cool Ur-Q turbo pistons with chunks
missing where they kissed. Ouch! They *ARE* interference engines!!!
These pieces all came from the Ur-Q engine I purchased from a Pro-Rally
racer after his cam belt snapped at high revs.   :(    This was the donor
short block and head for the now-just-completed KUQEFH project.

Oh, computed HP based on flow data and computer modeling for the KUQEFH is
367 HP if normally aspirated and with a killer cam......more specs to
follow......
