The end housing looks like a sc14 but its been modded alot if it was ! Sorry for the shit photo

It will take about 40 hp to drive it to maximum output so driven in the setup on the bike he is going to have a world of trouble with belt whip and chewing out bearings on the drive side (bike motor mod). With that long snub added to the charger there will be alot of flex there making keeping the belt running true very difficult, adding more load to Guide roller and drag on the belt.

Happy to help Mate, I remembered it was in a Performance Streetbike Mag from 2000..

'20 Of the Hottest Modified Aussie Streetbikes'

which also featured a Kawasaki ZXR850 Turbo from a Mr Ben Shaw (EXBEN) and the first version of Chris Arthur's (Hooligan) 7/11 fighter back when he had the caddy tail lights.

Strange to think that was 12 years ago now huh, I used to read their features over and over back when I was a teen and now I consider these blokes Mates whom I've ridden my very own built fighter alongside..

I tend to retain all the important information like Bike features in different mags and various fighter info and discard all the unnecessary stuff like the wife's b'day and anniversary and such lol :p

Fuck me, was that 11 years ago now? I remember reading that article and wondering why he'd paint it that colour. I like the fact that he just thought line it up on the bike to see what would happen. Brilliant.

Torocharger, Hyo?

i had thought about those vfr 800 kits and making it fit the 750 but id still need to efi it and make a plenum so if i was gonna do that id rear mount turbo it , blow through carby setups too much dicking about after hearing moz tell me about rockets setup and the work involved and seeing all the trial and error that yella did i think a basic efi system may not be easier to retro fit but would be a damn site easier to tune , i remember years ago wolf did a 2d system that from memory that was very basic


but hey this is all just thinking out loud and dreaming a bit
