well, looks like you've found a market. Get a product under development and start selling :P

I myself just started piecing together a turbo set-up for my 600 cbr. I hope to far enough along in the next month or so for it to be worth taking some pictures.

No one makes turbo mani's for bikes. At least not 600's

yeah they do..check ebay..depending on what year gsxr600, the 750 mani will fit..the rest is normal fabrication..i havent seen any on ebay lately..but i have in the past, i saw lots last year when i first got my gsxr and was lookin into what parts were offered for it.

^^^Mr. Turbo makes kits for big bores and I think there's one for the late 90's gixer 750 but I haven't found any for six hundreds. If saw one for my bike I would have bought it. It took a solid week to fabricate my mani...

that would have saved alot of time. What search title did you use on ebay?

later 90's models 600 and 750's and earlier 1000's share the same exhaust flange pattern..if im not mistaken..since its pretty common to swap upper half and lower half exhausts thruout the models, its a cheap hp increase for the lower cc bikes..i jiust cant remember which exact models are interchangeable.

that looks good, personally I'm very happy with the performance of my bike right now so I'm not really looking to turbo it atm. But we do have an old 500 that would be a good candidate.

^^^What, like a Suzuki gs 500? Are those eight valve...? Yeah I think I did a valve adjustment on one of those for a friend. Screw type with square key tappets. That "might work but I would wonder if the amount of exhaust output would be enough to spin a turbo up at any decent RPM. Then there is the cam lift/duration/overlap issue...
If you have a gt25 or other small turbo laying around, I'd say give it hell and ride it like you stole it.
