    The Velocity Shack Turbo kit for the Blackbird

    I would just first like to point out that the names Velocity Shack , Velocityshack.co.uk and Velocityshack.com are owned by myself ,Graham Codling (grahamcuk) and are not involved with, affiliated to or other way connected to any company , person or body using the word Velocity in there name or title.
    So this is how the song sheet will go......................... From prices will be posted ASAP...

    Very shortly there with be available a new Turbo kit for the Blackbird.
    Kits will be available for Carbie, early Fi and late model Fi and can be supplied as full kits or part by part and with or without turbo, so you can source your own new or second hand locally.
    All kits will be built to order only and due to the number of option available across the model range will be spec’ed and price individually.
    Any kit can be upgraded to the top spec by adding in the relevant parts.
    The Kit will be sold in the US, Canada and South America though HankXXX, (my partner in this venture) and myself in the UK and EU.

    Hank and I have been working on this for some time, Hank has worked with CP in the development of a Turbo spec piston for the Blackbird and combining them with the stock length Carrillo rods and the 0.075” Cometic head gasket or using the 2mm shorter rod with a stock thickness Cometic head gasket makes of a very robust bottom end.
    Note: All kits will require a small amount of additional modifications to the bike at the time of fitting. Clear instruction will be give on what is required for each kit.
    The turbo supplied with a kit will be adjusted for the application, kits supplied without a turbo will be supplied with instructions on how to clock and fit the unit.


    Entry level Priced from TBA
    A basic low pressure kit that will make around 180-190 bhp I will “not” require the fitting of a 0.075" head gasket. Can be supplied with an un-branded T25, Garrett T25 or the better GT2554R turbo, non-intercooled and running 4-5 psi of boost and should have almost no lag. Power commander supplied on Fi models
    Supplied with clutch spring upgrade.

    Fast road Priced from TBA
    6- 10 psi kit. Will require the fitting of a 0.075" head gasket. (Supplied with kit). Can be supplied with an un-branded T25, Garrett T2554R turbo or GT2560R this setup is intercooled and will make around 190 – 250 bhp.
    Supplied with clutch spring upgrade, lock up clutch supplied as an option. Power commander supplied on Fi models

    Extreme Road / Race Priced from TBA
    10 psi plus kit. Will require the fitting of CP Turbo spec piston and combining them with the stock length Carrillo rods and the 0.075” head gasket or using the 2mm shorter rod with a stock thickness head gasket. Kit can be supplied with Garrett GT2860r-2 turbo.
    Lockup clutch supplied with kit
    Note: The fitting of an extended Swingarm is recommended.

    Please read and understand this:
    Turbocharging any engine increases the stress on the motor, we have taken every care to tailor each level of kit and put in the safe guards for each level of kit. We except no responsibility for failure to fit the kit correctly , observe the safe guards or ride the bike within the limits set out for that level of kit which may result in damage to the motor, bike or rider. You have been warned!!!!
    P.S we except no responsibility for how much fun you will have upsetting 14 and Busa owners

    When funding allows, fast road for me! As it stands right now, I'm thinking of a complete tear down, extended swingarm and powder coating the frame first.

    I'd suggest doing a leakdown test to verify valve and ring seal and if good, would have no reservations in proceeding.
    The only other parts I might question would be the clutch pack. This could be addressed later if clutch slippage arose.
