It's finally alive!! After too much time I have completed the new turbo design for my XB12Scg. It runs great and I am extremely happy with the tuning success using the MAP sensor for fuel enrichment under boost. The wastegate is at a base setting of 5psi and I have an external boost controller on order to crank it up to whatever psi level I need to see 140hp  I'm thinking around 9psi will do it.  And here is a youtube video of the last dyno run I did today: All I can say is YAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!! (Message edited by blake on September 20, 2009) | ||

nice. i'm in for detailed pics. i'm very interested in doing this with my xb9... are you running an intercooler at all? what are you using for tuning? bigger injectors? is the engine built, or is it stock internals? what type of afr's are you aiming for? (it looks slightly lean to me under boost) what turbo are you using? i'm curious to know what the stock internals are good for.

Does your system use an intercooler? | ||

I'm betting that aluminum tank is for water injection. Am I right? NEED MORE PICS!!!!! | ||

How did you get it to rev to 7500 rpm?? | ||

has anyone incorporated the turbo into the muffler and just let it hang under the bike? seems like the logical place to put it. | ||

Very nice! Some pics are would be great! | ||

I have been waiting in anticipation of this post since I first got word of your project. Very Nice. | ||

Awesome  | ||

Waaaaaay cool! Well done!!!  | ||
| Ericz |
This is bad ass!!!!! 11psi of boost:  9psi of boost:  Old setup with 7psi vs New setup with 11psi:  And some pics of the bike:     | ||

Woooooooow, looks so sick man. So well done. How reliable is it? | ||
| Froggy |
Badass is an understatement. | ||
| Not_purple_s2 |
WHOA!!!!  The only thing more impressive than those numbers is the immaculate execution. everything is tucked in nice and neat, that is BADASS!!  | ||

Eric you're some sort of ••••••• evil genius. Wow, this setup is considerably different from the previous one. And the #'s, you even surpassed your goal. I can't believe how cool your bike is. | ||

wow.......breathtaking execution and stunning to look at. Hats off to you. | ||
| Weirtech |
where is the oil feed and return? i can't see them really in the pics. also, what are you using for management and injectors? it looks good, but i'd consider adding some brace or support to the wastegate branch. it'd be a shame to have it break off and run it over!

wow! that is exactly what i always thought a buell turbo setup should be! i love it. tuck that behind a belly pan and you have a helluva sleeper | ||

 Simply beautiful. Slash cutting the exhaust/waste gate pipes, or something similar would clean it up just right. Now if only my 08 had that hole through the frame..... |
