If this is the Boeing aircraft corporation somehow I have a hard time believing you.

1. Boeing doesn't make turbochargers, at all, that I'm aware. Even back in the heyday or recips on aircraft they didn't make their own.
2. The only engines Boeing deals with are turbines that they integrate onto their airframes.
3. The only ground vehicles Boeing deals with are military vehicles they are integrating other products like lasers on.
4. Even if 1-3 weren't true, I've worked with Boeing reps from their Integrated Defense Systems unit and honestly, there's very few private individuals that can afford to speak to Boeing, much less hire them to do work. Last I was around them, they won't even talk to you unless you have $1 million in guaranteed work to put under contract.

But then again, I'm just a lowly aero engineer, what would I know about the aerospace industry.
