    I seen a 98 Dyna with a turbo set a year ago at Port Dover (Canadian bike rally) the set up was huge - breather box 2 1/2" piping coming around front and what looked like a VW turbo booster. I forget exact #'s but 180+hp is close might be cool for short term but I think it would tear up the rest of the bike in no time. You would need to build it from ground up and IMO money well spent elsewhere!!

    I know Fat Bagger sells a kit for Twin Cams.

    Sure there is an evo version somewhere.

    Just some words of caution
    If you have a 10 year old Evo with 45000 miles that has been maintained but is all stock a turbo with boost might just blow it to bits, stock motors are not designed to take double the power, the bits just were not made for that.

    You might need to change cyl studs, pistons, cams etc, you will need some kind of engine mgt system for fuel and timing...
