Turbo's are Awesome, its the cheapest and quickest way to 90+hp. For 3000 +/- you can be hanging with the big boys at any hill, you will need a lockup clutch as well. I have a D7 Turbo (Which is the one that JVR was selling) and you can purchase these from the Rocket Factory or contact woofer67 on here. IMO its the most complete A-Z turbo kit available today. with a ton of different options.

I have a English racing turbo kit and agree that it is the best and easiest way to reach solid numbers without much work. I can't say one turbo kit is the "most complete" or "a-z" because i haven't owned any others.. But mine was complete and included a dyno tune on my fuel choice

I am very happy with my english racing turbo. Kit quality is excellent. Spools instantly in higher gears.

If for nothing its cool to hear the blow off valve
Seriously though turbo IMO is a great way to go. Massive power or just enough to have fun with a turn of a boost knob. With our Impulse kit you ave a stand alone fuel injection that requires no tuning for boost, temp, altitude etc. I let my wife roll it around at 10psi then crank it over 20lbs to run with the fastest bikes in the country

I wish I knew back before I started modding what I know now. I would have went with a turbo!! By the time I get done with my new mods this spring I will have about $4000 to $4500 in my raptor and thats just motor work. It would have been cheaper to do a turbo and I think more relieable. And I believe I would have had more HP to boot!! DAMN!!!!!!

Depends on horsepower, rpm, weight, gearing, type of riding, and where you're riding.
