Such a shame people have to incorrectly criticise an article, then get upset when they are corrected.
Funny.. I don't see where anything in a post denotes my emotional state. But hey ho assumptions again.

And everything is wrong with the word ducting if we're talking about exhaust gases... as the correct terminology is exhaust manifold. Also please explain what is incorrect in the criticism ?

I'm not the one taking conversations away from the fact that only the exhaust gases "power" a turbo.
