    cool! ..

    the only pics i have right now is the picture of when i was desiding were to install the turbo itself without beeing too obvious and in the way ..

    this is the big red .. was bought from an 60ish man that only used it to go riding in the woods .. other than the ripped seat its in verry good shape




    this is the rear only sitting on to see if it cleared the turbo


    this is were the turbo is now mounted




    But ofcourse now the compressor is facing the other way ect...

    i will post more pics when i get a chance ..

    Be interested to see how this works. Been thinking about it for my 200x... After I get everything else fixed, anyway!

    Anybody that designs something that they say is completely idiot proof, fails to realize the resourcefulness of a complete idiot.

    The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at and repair.

    i will let you all know for sure .. i will show some more pics too ...

    i am using a IHI RHB5 turbo , this is a small turbo that will spool up fast .. the wastegate is at 8psi .. with the pressure the exhaust has it will never reach that , should reach a 4-5 psi .. ... i will hook up a boost guage to see how much i am peak boosting

    there is no filter yett , and no ''downpipe'' tail pipe as i havent had time to put them on yett

    as for the oil , its a custom setup that a friend did .. not really sure how its done but it works awsome lol.. its a little oil box, and i know it has a little pump

    this is so vauge in all its descriptions... you need to tell everyone how its done as well as post some kind of video of how well it works... all we see is a big red with a turbo in back...for all we know your using it for a flux capacitor.....
