Sounds a bit of a big project ? are you sorting the engine to take big boost?
Hope you take heaps of snaps to show us..

I have only ever Turbo'ed one ride ..it was a 1000 Kawa ... about 1985
I bought ATP, Turbo pack kit... below

Engine was built to take 28PSI Boost

im debating on boosting my bike too, i have every part except for the injectors, intake, and exhaust mani's. do you know of any sites for turbo mani's? also how are you going about the situation with the ITB's converting into an intake mani? are you gonna try to squeeze and intercooler?
