    agreed. Figure out how to do it and then sell a kit in the 3WW shop. I know its been done before, there was a youtube video on it. But now I can't find it.

    Shoot it down? No way. I'm encouraging you! Don't forget to film the test run.

    Well im a gear head and love to toy with things that most wont do. Im always changing my mind but what is the real deciding factor on this is what piston i end up having to go with. If the cylinder that i got has to be bored to 68mm than i will be forced to go with a 12:1 Wiseco piston which will not alow me to follow through with this idea. Will know when G&H gets back to me. As far as this idea goes it will be a cheep setup with a cheep ebay turbo as it is an experiment. I dont see any problems other than how to get oil to flow through the turbo as they do require oil haha.

    Maybe fab up a remote oil reservoir? I bet a tiny turbo would make the 200x scream. I hear what you are saying about the piston though. I think you will have to run the lowest compression possible which is stock 9.5:1, otherwise you may have major issues.

    Yeah, the electric turbos are a scam.


    You'll have to run lower compression than that to be able to handle any decent boost, but go for it dude!

    Check out the older Yamaha Secca bikes, some of those had a turbo and they would SCREAM!
    This is my trike. There are many like it but this one is mine. My trike is my best friend, and it is my life. I must master it as I must master myself. My trike without me is useless. Without my trike, I am useless. I must ride my trike true. My trike and I know that what counts is not the amount of miles we ride, but the time we ride together. My trike is human in it's own ways, therefore I will learn it as my brother. I will learn it's weaknesses, it's strengths, it's parts, and it's soul.

    I saw someone on here installed an oil cooler on their 200x. Is there a way to tap into the stock oil system or how was this accomplished?
