Hello members, i was wondering if anyone knows where i can find a turbo for my 1998 Blackbird, without breaking the bank. Would like the upgrade. Spoke to EFR racing and he wants 12,000 for the install and upgrade. Thanks for any advice.

Is that the Euro company that specializes in snow mobiles, bikes, four wheelers, etc? Their system is about $8,000 plus install. Good Luck

Or you could go for a Hahn kit. Beware of weak headers with those and a crappy oil return set up if I remember right. I've recently seen them for sale new for $3.5K.

There is a local guy here in North Alabama that specializes in drag bikes.
Mostly Hayabusas for drag racing.
He installs a lot of turbos and ships them all over.
I talked to him about dynoing my BB and jetting the carbs.
He is trying to talk me into a turbo. I don't need one.
Seems very knowledgeable, and his shop is always full of bikes.

Possibly Richard at RCC Turbos,richard@rccturbos.com or Velocity Racing.My plan was always to buy the turbo and parts separately off E-bay and just get the plenum and plumbing made up.There's always local turbo guys in every state and province,just gotta find 'em.

The system includes extra fairings, PC III etc. Honda blackbird1100 xx(TURBO KIT)
14999 Swedish kronor is about 2000 dollars.

I have price for a stage one turbo from Velocity, $4,995 US. You need a pc and do your own dyno. I'm still searching. To ship to Canada, add $1,300 on the dollar exchange at the moment. If one's not doing their own work, it adds up in a hurry.
