wow i love that guy , what a fuckin awesome way to waste time money and talent ,, did he ever do an update ?i see its 05 stuff in there

This project is on the back-burner at the moment due to the turbo having sprung an oil leak and needing returned to America for rebuild. Oh and it didn't really work anyway! 20th Aug 2005

Unfortunatly thats how it is with a single.... still he did a great job

DIY superchargers? i tried looking for one in peth/Aust and couldnt find any..

I'd pursued the smog pump idea a few years ago but didn't take it any further. What I've been wondering recently is if those dodgy electric turbo's you see on ebay would actually work on a small bore motor. I've been eying off my wife's 125cc vespa with huge amounts of space under the seat, a perfect candidate for this.

I love the claims they make for them, it's just an electric fan, but somehow it will improve your handling amonst other things

nah id rather the smog pump with a big belt hanging off the crank shaft..
ive got ideas for a postie bike now.. 175 or 185, (200cc if possible) smog pump blower setup.
