Some might find this stuff interesting. Finished another system for my 1999 Kawasaki ZRX1100. This is probably the 5th system I've made for this bike....I like trying different things. This is the best one yet by far, IMO, and I really think I'm done. I found the best of all worlds, peak HP capability, best placement of components, best spool characteristics. I'm very very happy with it.
Its a T28 turbo off of a japanese spec skyline, roughly 280hp peak capability. I'm running 18psi on pump gas, and she hits full boost around 5K RPM's. I haven't dyno'd it of course, but I would expect around 250rwhp.
The intercooler is off of a VW passat 1.8L turbo engine, that I cut the tanks off and made my own. The header is 1.25" OD pipe.
Engine is stock other than forged 8:1 pistons (stock bore, 76mm x 58mm, 1052cc), stronger valve springs and a lockup clutch. Using stock 36mm carbs, and an aftermarket ignition system that allows me to retard timing on boost. Running around 28* total timing at peak boost (pulls timing at 10psi)
The rest of the bike is mostly stock, the swing arm has been extended 6". I'll try to get some full-bike shots soon. These pics were taken the night of the first test ride
