I've just seen a video of the first fire of Ginja's new missile at Big CC
not dynoed yet but sounding sweet
and the turbo busa I rode at the weekend, they wound the tuurbo up to 21psi and made
401 bhp
remember it is stock wheelbase ____________________ 187.3bhp = 201mph |

Sean is doing the build but it belongs to my mate Gaz
not sure which turbo it is but I don't think Sean will have anything to do with Mr Turbo, more likely a Velocity kit as he is the UK importer
they ran it with nitrous as soon as it was run in, just to see but it only had the gas fitted for less than a day and one dyno run
it was always going to be a turbo bike
he only had it for ONE DAY from new, it was collected, run in for 500 miles on the same day and taken to Big CC on the next day ____________________ 187.3bhp = 201mph |

It'll be a velocity racing jobbie & I pity him if he leaves his wallet around at Big CC Shaun'll friggin empty it double quick for him!
Turbo Busa sounds like a friggin laugh mind. What's it like in a corner though.....no don't answer that I was taking the Michael.
Oh by the way Mr C, you were right about the BHP on my Busa, I've managed to get it up to 175BHP at the back wheel now....which if you allow 10% for transmission losses is about 190 or so ponies at the crank. Not bad for a bike with 30,000 miles on the clock which is constantly abused by yours truly. I have to say that it pulls up lovely in 2nd at 70mph now  ____________________ Karma!!

but will no way do 205mph eh
btw go back to www.200mph.org.uk I think you can register now, 175 at the wheel is a reasonably fit busa and I'm sure you will be welcomed with open arms by those now terrified of the zx12r onslaught
the turbos are as docile as you like in the corners, I wouldn't like to ride one "on boost" in the corner as it were but below 6000 rpm it's a torquey pussycat
cracking the throttle open gives you half a second of warning as you can hear the turbo spool up before the clocks come up to say hi  ____________________ 187.3bhp = 201mph |
