Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!
 

Honda also made a turbo motorcycle in the early 70s.....XF750 or something...it says turbo on the exhaust pipe only seen one in person. Also making a turbo diesel based on the D17 for the european market...yawn.

Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!
 

they also made the CX500 and the CX650 in the early 80s, both were turbocharged. i wish i could find one.

Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!
 

Yeah sorry it was the 80s....There are a few in CA, I see em in the cycle trader now and then for $2500+. They probably weren't built for performance just to get the power of a 750 out of a 500 with the gas mileage of a 500. But you could probably double the hp before they would blow and add a small spearco core, they were non intercooled and carbuerated.

Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!
 

do you know if they used a pull-through set-up or a pressurized carb set-up?

Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!
 

I'm an idiot, they were injected......19psi in the manifold fellas!

Look at the (what i guess) output shaft, the directional rotor. Assuming that the cutting edge of the blades spin forwards, wouldn't the motor turn clockwise? Just something I noticed...

Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!

Re:Honda Factory Turbocharged Engine!
 

counter clockwise
