Turbo on a rat bike: Could a TD04 spool a 440CC twin?

might wanna upgrade your health insurance


here's a crazy project my friend did, one of the smallest production turbos made.

Amazing. A+ build on that, give him some props from me next time you see him. That kind of cleanliness and attention to detail is what I'm shooting for.

I did some more eyeballing of the motor last night and I'm pretty sure I can flip the heads around. I'm going to PnP, grind, balance everything and save up for one of those turbos.

Carb tuning sounds like hella fun. What if the WOT jet sprayed alcohol instead of gas? hell of a way to beat det.

I still have that book I have to scan and show all of you...

carb tuning is gay, well..ive never jetted a 4-stroke but ive jetted 2-strokes..which are wayy finicky then any thumper

especially 80s..ive done them all, 80cc,125cc,250cc 2-strokes..

the only way its going to inject alocohol is if you can divide your gas tank so one part holds gas, the other alcohol, then when you pull the throttle 50% back some type of diverter valve so that it the alochol is fed into the tank.

me thinks alcohol is kinda like e85 and you need to run nearly double the amount of fuel to get the power you want..

think of it like this..subarus/evos that run on e85 use like 1600cc injectors....

so..you're gonna need a fuel accelerator/pump i think if you want it to be alcohol, but i could be wrong.

i know for fact modern 4-stroke motocross bikes have an accelerator pump in the carb to help with WFO throttle situations from idle rpm levels..

Clipons and the tank will be last.

I completely stripped the bike down in like 3-4 hours from 9 PM to 1 AM on Monday. These things are SO easy to work on compared to cars. It's so funny how motorcycle guys are totally confused by and scared of fuel injection. They think that since it's a computer, it's more complicated than tuning a carb.

The pistons on this Kawasaki motor rise and fall at the same time so it's like a mini Subie boxer in a way! 4 ALL THAT M4D TYTE TORQUE, YO.

I just upgraded my health insurance at work. F'real.
