Not familiar with it, but from the name, I suspect you're looking for a turbo plug, as the car racers use. Like the Nelson plug, seals at the bottom but I don't know if they are compatible in thread size. If so, you want a Nelson, cheap and lasts forever.

Even though the sealing is the same, I "think" the Nelson plug threads are NOT the same as turbo plugs. However turbo plugs should be available at your LHS since they are used by the RC car guys.

as stated  turbo and nelson are differant. there are a number of turbo plugs many heat ranges and brands they are  exellent in performance i think you will like them but a std. glo driver will not fit on them as they are larger. i have a shoe box full of the rossi and merlin brand  i think os may have them also and a very nice looking one is made by odonell.
