For all the non believers that my pit bike has a turbo

**skidMark** · 7th March 2006, 09:48

if i ran 18lb through a little motor like mine i wouldn't get it out of the driveway before it blew up lol

but you'd have bragging rights

good luck with the 2 or 3lb boost you're looking for

Is that the bike the bus ran over? Looks OK now!

Cheers john.

i believe its his new one ;>? or did he just buy forks and fixi t up ;0?

This is a perfect case study of what happens when man has too much time and too little bike.

**R6_kid:Me** · 7th March 2006, 12:31

haha, good shit mark, could make those bikes a little tastier out the back though! Does it have a blow off valve or of you have to sneaze when you change gear?

whos the guy supplying them? and what is the max boost the turbo can run?

**Fishy** · 7th March 2006, 12:42

Much damage after last nights slide down the road?

**TygerTung** · 7th March 2006, 16:29

What is the turbo off? Is it pretty laggy?

**jonbuoy** · 7th March 2006, 16:42

Nice job! Am curious what the turbo was off too, looks nice and compact. Any hassels finding a bleed for the oil feed? Wonder if you could fit that motor into a mini moto?

BTW any of you guys seen that crazy old coot that built his own cruise missile and jet engine from an old turbo charger? Check it out, fucking funny....

C'mon someone put a pulse jet on a bike frame for a laugh - I've not the time or the money to do it!

**Sketchy_Racer** · 7th March 2006, 16:55

Man thats some cool shit!!!!!!!!!!

Does it really improve the power that much or is it just for the wank factor????

either way very very cool

**bugjuice** · 7th March 2006, 16:57

you'd literally cook with a pulsejet on a bike!!
I still can't believe something so simple, works..

belive it or not it made a hell of a difference,,,,

it's a IHI RHB31 turbo out of a daihatsu charade turbo diesel

but and IHI RHB32 spool will bolt straight in...it out of a daihatsu charade turbo petrol....

just the diesel model has a water cooling feature if you want to use it.....mine just doesn't have a water supply....

and no blow off valve...gotta find one that will go off at such low boost.....

i think the max it will do is 6-7 psi from what i can find out about it on the web

it is a custom built turbo kit done by 50/50 racing, morrin road panmure.

and as for the damage for last night....it's stuffed the gearbox output shaft to the sprocket....oooo bugger ....
