turbo time....

im peicing together a turbo kit and fabbing what i can myself. fuel pump from car aero fittings ive been collecting car boost guage etc. im looking for as many pics and pointers as possible from anyone who cares to share. including but not limited to carb info motor spec anything relevent even gearing. im very formilliar with the car side of forced induction just looking to learn and be inspired so lets get the ball rolling!

ive had an eye on that but i dont have all the money at once. thats why im peicing a setup together. its an all winter project maybe two winters to accumulate all the parts.

I went that route. Never got all the bugs worked out and am losing interest. I have pics on here in the project section. I will see if I can find it for you.

kzz1king would you consider selling your setup cause i can get a jump on this if i start there. it just needs love and attention your very close all you need is most likely a wastegate adjustment or seals. you nailed it tho.

When I get home tonight Ill check in and see whats happening.

:laugh:

You certainly need to start the build with the turbo in mind.

Cut corners and you'll be doing it again...

Here's my setup:
1200cc turbo pistons
ATP Turbo kit with RayJay 370 turbo
electric fuel pump
Welded crank
main bearing support plate
HD cylinder and main bearing studs
Modified oil pan with deep sump extension
Oil pump optimized and modified for the deep sump pickup
MRE lockup clutch (the only way to eliminate clutch slip and an aching wrist from pulling in the clutch lever with HD clutch springs)
42mm HSR carb
Dyna 2000 ignition with retard map driven by boost sensor.
K&N Air/Fuel Sensor with readout.

Back in 2001 when I picked up the bike, it was newly rebuilt - but it had an awful Mikuni 2-circuit carb (snowmobile carb) that had no mid-range control - I dumped that for the HSR 42 fairly quickly. I soon found the previous owner skimped on the engine rebuild as the head gasket started leaking - after pulling the head off, I found stock cylinder studs - sigh.... The old Gerex igntion generated a fat spark, but used the mechanical advancer - no real way to control the retard so he had a water/alcohol injection system on the bike to help manage detonation issues, so that all went and was replaced with the Dyna 2000. THe clutch was an extra-disk clutch - but even with the stiffest springs would slip under heavy load in 3rd gear. That was pulled out and replaced with stock style clutch plates and an MRE lock-up clutch - A much lighter clutch action and it never slips now.

I only have the bike running 7-8 lbs of boost - but even with that an slightly tall gearing the bike will power wheelie in 2nd gear and you can feel the wheel going light in 3rd gear.

Lush Sounds like a cool project and one i will be Bookmarking. I think a good place for Turbo info might be the www.750turbo.com/forum/index.php obviouslt not all would be relevent to building your own. But the 750 was without a doubt the most sucessful factory Turbo :evil: and some of these guys do some serious mods
