Hello, this is my second post. first post no repley. So here is my org. post My plans are to put a used Garrett/Airesearch TBO335 (T3 Series) turbo. on a 2000 Honda cbr 929rr motorcycle.

I was going to put the turbo after the manifold

ends and the exhaust begins if I could. Because

I could not find a manifold for my amp.

Also about the

air box can I use the stock one? If I could I

was going to run a pipe from the turbo to the

air box. Or do I have too? I don't need all of

power from the turbo but most of it would be

nice.
Would like about 200. Turbo is a 150 to 275hp turbo.

Turbo has been checked.

thanks. welcome for comments.

That was my first post. I have been away from

forums for about 4 years or so. Howdy every body!

As for pictures a have some old pictures on phone.

Don't know if i can get them off the phone. maybe

try bluetooth, infrared or something like that.

Hey welcome, but try the tech questions in the general tech forum catagory and you may get a better result....

Welcome to the site Chainstretcher is the resident Turbo Knowledge he may be able to give a few pointers.

turbo huh? do a lot of dragging? why not supercharge and leave a little handling in your bike?

welcome!

No dragging Just need more power. It's time to kick it up a little or alot.

supercharge would be nice but diffacult to do.

supercharge will be harder but not impossible. if you are willing to discuss the option, we just supercharged a zx10r and have done a lot like gsxrs and r1s. pm me if ineterested

Welcome. Pics??

supercharge would be nice but i have to keep cost low. Plus i have the turbo right now.

Just need a manifold for starters. would like to have it on the road soon. I can smell

the spring time

Besides wicth one has more power the turbo or the supercharger. I know in cars the turbo

is better then the supercharger. O well do you know how makes manifolds for my app?

Hello & welcome to the boards. Turbos & superchargers are both good. Turbo's don't always make more power. It depends on the setup you are running. Turbo's it's easier to just turn the boost up as long as the motor, turbo, and fuel system will support it. With a supercharger it's the same boost all the time. You can increase the boost by changing the pulley size.

Turbo's run off the exhaust side, while superchargers run off the intake side. Both have their pro's and con's. Just because you have a turbo, that doesn't necessarily mean that it will work with the manifold for your bike.

You need to do some research. I know a few good bike turbo companies are Hahn racecraft, Mr Turbo, Velocity racing, among others. Chainstretcher will be better able to point you in the right direction. I've turbo'd & supercharged several vehicles, but never a bike. Post up some questions in the tech area and you might get some good answers.

I'm afraid you're gonna have a bad experience. First, the stock exhaust will not support the weight of the turbo. It would take serious effort to modify it to even fit. Stock airbox would most likely be useless also. To hit 200hp you'd probably have to run between 5-7# of boost -- that'd most likely cause the airbox to leak air all over the place and possibly blow it off the throttle boddies. An aluminum plenum is preferred with some sort of mounting point to keep it on the throttle bodies.

You'll also need a power commander to retard timing and dump wads of fuel as the turbo spools up. And if you plan on extended high speed runs you'll either need a spacer to reduce compression or either an intercooler or water injection to reduce heat and avoid detonation.

I'm not trying to deter you from boostin that bad boy but you need to be aware of how much goes in to turbocharging a bike. The actual turbo is the least expensive part -- it's all the custom made $hit that A) costs $$$ and B) drives you nuts. Don't even get me started about check valves and blowing up MAP sensors My install was on a 2001 Busa and was somewhat custom. Took me over 2 weeks (probably around 100 hours) to get everything installed. Took another 6 months to dial it in.

Good luck dude.
