Paul Fishers
Mk's Supercharged GSXR
Neil's (if he gets it done in time)
Sean's (if he gets it done in time)
Gaz's (if he gets it done in time)
LocoR1 ( if we can talk him into it )
Geoff (if we can talk him into it )
Welderman Joe (if he's finished by then)
Carnut (not sure if he's sorted his engine out yet, it's not turbo'd but he's running turbo power)
there could be more it's early days yet, i'm still looking into a turbo install for mine, or maybe be just 75bhp of nos
or both
Chris

Ok you've talked me into it   
Seriously I would love to come its not back on the road till next month so by the start of May I should have it all sorted and know if everything is
ok with it.
I think I would look into hiring a trailer though!
Dilley are you planing on driving yours up or trailer?

It wasn't the driving I was worried about more the clutch last time I tried some standing starts I fried the clutch   
And I still didn't get the hang of it

To be fair that was the original Yamaha clutch done about 8000miles so suppose it had done well really!
I've now got an ebc clutch and doubled up on the clutch spring
Haven't tried any since, would think I will have the same problem as you dilley
Will have to start practicing

Dilley,
Did Holeshot do your conversion? From your picture gallery your blackbird engine is the carb version is that right?
Sorry about the all the questions, the figures mentioned on the Holeshot site for turboing a Blackbird Car conversion are these figures realistic?

Cheers

The figures are fairly realistic, its all the work and parts reqired!!!
Im looking at importing some turbo kits and knocking them out nice and cheap, so if anyone wants to know just ask, there is also a seller on ebay
doing turbo kits for decent money with lots of options.

We used to use ebc kevlars on our race r1's until they exploded...
Full engine strip to clear out the debris...
Go back to OEM imho
Opinions are like backsides..
Everyone has one, nobody wants to hear it and only other peoples stink!
