Default Turbine RV-4

Hi everyone,
I'm still relativly new here so I'm SURE this has allready been seen, but i wanted to post this video link about an RV-4 with a turbine engine. Looks pretty cool!! Don't have any idea how reasionable/reliable/economical it would be. I've seen the thread about the RV-8 with a turbine but they kept the original cowl. (or at least it looks mostly original) This looks like a whole diffrent animal.

Thoughts?

Yeah, that's Innodyn's promotional video. They've been flying that 4 for five or six years now. Still haven't produced anything yet. That engine on the 8 is a pre-production engine, which they've had problems with for some time now.

Still pretty cool stuff though! I never tire of watching that video!
