This guy took one and made a go cart that runs on hydrogen peroxide - see the video for your self:

This guy on the other hand likes to just take turbos and build pulse jets out of them:

Throttling up to 20 PSI of compressor pressure gives me about 135K RPMs (yes, 135,000 !!) and there's still plenty of throttle left (and it was altogether too loud -- even with hearing protection) to get close enough to get a good shot of the control panel.
