Just seen this local custom shop in Ohio finish their latest turbo charged bike!! This thing is wicked!!! The bike is full of creative ideas and the pipes are totally unique!! Anyone in Ohio ought to check this fella out!! ?They will turbo anything....better yet they know what they are doing!!! gonna be interesting to see what it comes up with on the Dyno!!!
It sounds great!!!!
They asked if I was interested in turbo-ing my 02 wide glide..I passed for now..told me they could get more HP out the 88a than the rev tech they used...hmmmmm ..Nahhhh I'll pass..for now!!! not sure of the handling ability for riding. hate to have to lean all the time..then again that could be a cool trend people lean in cars why not bikes?

So, where are the pics? Links? Or are you just teasing?

Installed and tweaked a turbo on a Dyna a few years back. Got somewhere over 110 HP out of it. It was the customers daily driver for a few years and was fun to test ride. The turbo was a vane type and after some teething problems (shelled two or three out) was able to be regulated at 9.5 PSI low and 13 PSI high.

http://www.mrturbo.com is in Houston, but I've only seen one bike they've done. It was a Honda CBX in line six cylinder back about 79 or 80, whenever that thing came out. They have a turbo Busa for those who think too much is never enough...
