I was wondering if any one is runing a turbo on there bike and
what kind of power it makes?
what kind of set up?
is there boostleg
how you like it?
any info you can think about it.
i'm currently going to drop a 1k into my 600. i was also think about runing a small turbo such as one off of a old talon or eclipisce sense they are cheap. i'm planing on runing low boost on the steert 1-2 psi and at the trak 5-6 psi for drag racing .my main concer is boostleg, and when i out doing some wheelies with it.
any how any info would be very helpful
thanks

well, i took an aprenticeship in turbobuilding and theory, adn an eclipse turbo is not gonna spool ona bike and the exhaust housing is way wrong....if you get serious and go to buy a turbo PM me m and i'll put you in touch with one of the most knowlegdeable turbo guys in the US and teh owner of the worlds fastest turbo harley
but look to spend some dough, cause your not gonna be able to jsut rig up an old car turbo. plus you'll have to get oil supply and return figured out or the turbo won't last a week

run to about 6psi on the stock fuel system without major modifications, although it is a good idea to install a Bell FMU rising fuel pressure regulator. It will allow the fuel pressure to increase proportionally to the boost pressure. You will also need a high pressure/high volume fuel pump like the universal Walbro 255. Below 4 psi it's not overly worth all the trouble. My gsxr 1k with a completely stock engine put out 206hp at the tire @ 6 psi, and 236hp at the tire @ 10 psi (using MC Xpress air to air intercooler for both measurements, R-Tech 110 fuel). Let me know if you have any questions that I can answer.

You dont want to be doing long wheelies on a turbo bike unless you have the boost set real low.. Mine comes up in 5th violently and is uncontrolable regaurdless of whether I want it to or not at WOT (with my 18/37 gearing it is geared to do 220 mph in 5th) I dont know if you can set the waste gate that low to only get 1 or 2 psi of boost.. On my lowest setting I get like 7 psi depending on the weather. I have the hahn kit, but the only thing left from the original kit is the fuel pump.

Check out www.suzukihayabusa.org (http://www.suzukihayabusa.org) for your gsxr turbo needs. Do a search there, and I hope you have alot of time on your hands 'cause you might be there a while. Plus the man to see is in your state!
