Why not have Carpenter do it? Then you know it will be right.

Too far away for me, and I like the turbo idea better. But I've looked into it for sure.

Agreed, Warp, Ruzzle, TriRocketIII and all others are you up to the challenge?!


The kit was on the bike when I got it. Have your shop contact Turbo Connection (boostisgood.com). I highly recommend this Aerocharger if you're into low end grunt AND if you know a shop that can tune it correctly. If you're more into top end speed get the TTS or carpenter kit. It you're really insane combine those last two.

That is the shop I've been dealing with. They are only a day's drive from here so I can drop it off. They sound like great guys to deal with too. All I need is for oil prices to come back up again, **** drop postponed my plans. Or maybe I could sell my wife's Vstar.

....but there's hardly any out there.

EXACTLY! And the ones that are are done poorly... low res, bad lighting, to much nothingness and you know the speedos are probably off which makes the acceleration appear faster than it really is. All motorcycle speedos read at least 5% fast from factory. My Yamaha Warrior speedo is 8.5% off. Most vids of 0-100 are more like 0-93 and it's worse the faster the bike goes. I do admit I'm pretty OCD about that. And as I also pointed out in my youtube comments, due to the angle of the camera against my speedo in this vid the readings appear around 5 mph too slow past about 70 or 80. I didn't notice that until I watched the video because I remember how fast I was really going.

I swear officer, I only saw 55!

Take it East and get away from Everett for open highway like Idaho or Montana. Shoot vid again but thanks for this one, NICE.
