I DO !
I DO !!
The more I think about it.....this whole thing (trike full crazy) started, after I mowed my lawn a couple springs back.
Of course my lawn is filled with these magic fungi. I have trained all neighborhood kids to not touch these,But I'm pretty sure my old dog tripped from a few sniffs!
Honestly when they are out, I mow with a respirator on (I look crazy enough without this) but I can see a bad situation without it.

 If I'm not worried about being poked about my silly ass tattoos, you don't worry about your art skills Matt(especially on a computer).
I am leaning towards the intercooler and a blow through right now. Im thinking of a clear plexiglass box to encompass the entire carb(or carbs) in.
Just put pressure all around it.    any issues with this you turbo gurus?  reading through this on the net is contradicting for sure.
After sizing up some W/A intercoolers and accompanying radiators, I am losing room.
Im now looking at a deep well oil pan,and skip separate oil set up for turbo.Hopefully I can start to weld up the front pipes this week/weekend. 
Be well

Has anybody tried running a "variable geometry" turbo on a bike yet - power delivery would be more linear and come in sooner, only problem I guess is you would need full "engine management" to get it to operate correctly

Whatcha talking bout Wookie? 
El megasquirt? for the management?
The only issue with that is how do I keep the ARD?
In other words does a full engine management system hook up to a tractor implement?
I will drop some coin for a engine brain,but man I want to run the ARD.

WOW just went down the engine management system wormhole, I think thats a bit more tech than I can handle, or make look cool on my ride.
This thing will be ridden, but it aint a real performance drag trike.........Yet.
