Hey Adam ... if you are interested here is a link to one electric type on fleabay..

Looks neat and seems to take low amps too ??
I think making a small separate 24volt battery case somewhere on the bike would be the go .... something neat ?
I mean , if you put a normal turbo on , you have all sorts of things to mod and add , so a small case and a few trick electrics sounds allot simpler ??

A sneak peek ... lol

SPECS OF ELECTRIC TURBOCHARGER:

4.6 amp draw @ 12 volts------3PSI

9.2 amp draw @ 24 volts---5-6PSI

435CFM @ 12 volts

628CFM @ 24 volts

weight 8 pounds

LxWxH: 8"x8"x8"

Haha wow. I have a lil 14b turbo sitting around.. But I'd put your money in a bigger/newer bike if you're on a quest for massive hp.

Have a read here from my DSM buddies regarding the 'Electric Turbo' - http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/420a-bolt-tech/13909-electric-turbo.html

I wouldn't go electric.

I run 15PSI in my otherwise stock Subaru with a CR of 8.5:1.

The cost of properly fitting a turbo to an F3 would exceed the value of the bike by several times. It's theoretically possible to drop the CR from 12:1 with a custom head gasket, but then there's timing and fuel injection issues to deal with as well. Given that the bike is carbureted, what's the point?

Strapping a turbo to something without a decent engine management system is an exercise in futility. Once you've tuned an engine with electronic boost control and flexible fuel maps, you never, ever, ever want to go back.

If she runs decent then perhaps a few suspension mods might make for a more interesting ride. And ya, I know my new ride has the suspension of a radio flyer wagon ... but my former scoots (the ones made for carving up curves) were heavily optimized with suspension and braking mods. As well as removing anything with mass but no real function (handle bar weights, etc.)
