if so hows it run and you got numbers?
they make like 78hp stock
and back the the gsxr be ready to stop buying front tires because with boost on a 750 the front tire will never touch the ground
i have never rode one that was turbo but i rode a non turbo 750 and a turbo 600 and they were both rockets

Re: My Turbo GSXR750 Project
explain to us why you want to turbo a 600/750cc bike when swapping a 1000cc engine in will be easier, lighter, and absolutely strap its ***.
turbo'd bikes are dangerous to sport ride. its almost impossible to get a good transition into boost at the 50-60% rpm range and retain any top end power. making for a very dangerous bike that comes on and off boost in the top 75% of the rpm range. first time you hit boost with a lean and you'll be thrown into a tree or a telephone pole.
i should know... ask my DOS buddy, non-scrub gear mind you, who threw himself into a telephone pole. that's why i refuse to work on bikes. it's NOT cost effective, it's still SLOWER and handles WORSE than jus swapping in a bigger engine.

"turbo'd bikes are dangerous to sport ride. its almost impossible to get a good transition into boost at the 50-60% rpm range and retain any top end power"
Hello, all bike are dangerous to some extent depending on the jackass operating them. And the turbo transition thing...How many turbo bikes have you ridden?
Your buddy that threw himself into a pole failed at riding, period. Slower and handles worst?
FAIL FAIL FAIL
!000cc bike don't just "drop in" there is a lot of things that need to be swapped including but not limited to: Radiator, harness changes/modification (sometimes not always) ECU's (sometimes not always) Throttle bodies, cable re-routes ect. That ---- is not easy by any stretch of the imagination and there is ALWAYS fitment problems with about half the ----.
I disagree with you wholeheartedly sir.

It also dose not hurt that boost gives me a chubby.
I am also willing to bet that my shitty turbo'd 750 will put down more power that a 1000 of the same year GSXR.
None the less I will take your comments as constructive criticism and I am glad that you are concerned about me keeping my flesh intact.

'97 Kawasaki ninja Zx-6R
103hp from the factory and I've never dynoed it on boost so I couldn't tell you (I'd guess 125whp @ 10lbs)

Re: My Turbo GSXR750 Project
That CBR was ------' clean man...I understand you wantin' to experience boost on a bike, but I have a feeling you'll eventually regret getting rid of that bike. I haven't seen one of those in that good of shape in a looooonnnngggg time.

I just want the boost for 90-100MPH power wheelies.
