« on: August 23, 2006, 03:30:15 PM »
I was wondering who all makes a turbo system for Bandit 1200.  I think its about that time to get one set up on the ole drag bike.  Just let me know guys. Thanks

Hi

Quite fancy a Bandit turbo as well, but not managed to find much out about the Mr Turbo kit beyond their web site.

This 'busa is pretty quick. Not sure on the power, but enough to go through timing lights at 265.4mph:-



Not sure how much power Ghost rider really has, or even if his bike has been dynoed.

All the best

Ive been trying to find info on this as well. My big gripe about the mrturbo kit is where the turbo is located. up high on one side. with the pipe running down the side of the bike, under and then out to a normal exhaust. I like the busa setups with the turbo low in the front and centered.

Thinking about forced induction after i build up the big bore kit and whatnot

Damn...turbo seems nice, but hell I get beat up but the wind at 100.  Plus I like my front wheel on the ground unless I want it to come up.  Seemed like that front tire was skimming the asphalt while he was riding even if he was leaned all the way forward......yea I think I will stick with the minor upgrades...

If I bolted up a turbo I would keep it at a low 5psi or so and keep the ability to run pump gas. Nice and safe 190rwhp  :motorsmile:

When i had a ZX12R i noticed some companies make superchargers too. Seem pretty rare though
