Only time the power was really usable was in 5th or 6th. Everywhere else you had to be careful. (in reply to RTmotive) Post #: 17

Dump pipe was the biggest beeeyatch to make. Luckily I work for a company with nice shop facilities I got other pics of the turbo around here somewhere - I'll post 'em if I can find 'em. That bike now resides with a dude in North Carolina -- sold it and bought the CBR1000RR. 20K miles of 300hp banging you will make you appreciate the civility of Honda (in reply to Nipz) Post #: 22

RE: How often do you change your oil??? - 11/20/2004 11:31:58 PM    chainstretcher Posts: 4133 Joined: 11/5/2004 Status: offline I bought a used Hahn kit. Basically consists of turbo, plenum and fuel regulator. I created all the extra goodies on mine. Once you go booooost, it's hard to go back. My initial reaction about the 1kRR is that it handles well but is slooooow. Sorry the pics are so big. (in reply to chainstretcher) Post #: 27

The full synthetic is $50 a gallon, too much for me. But I have seen Amsoil for around $35/gallon. < Message edited by Calkidd -- 11/26/2004 12:56:06 AM > _____________________________ http://streetbikereview.com http://rrzone.com (in reply to Nipz) Post #: 29
