GS1000 turbo kit?

[fat_sac]

I'm looking to turbo my gs1k but don't know what to expect as far as money and trouble are concerned. Is it worth it and how much HP will I gain?

amendment: its a 78 1kE

You will need a kit for a GS1100 and a intake manifold for a KZ with a adapter plate between the head and manifold. I had a old ATP kit on a almost stock GS 1000 / 1026cc ,KZ clutch basket , welded crank and APE valve springs Ran 5.29@129mph in the 1/8 mile in a home built drag bike .About 230 hp @ 25 lbs boost

25 pounds? Are you f-wording serious? I'm looking for something ridiculous so I can do 25 pounds but how many passes would that last?...is it reliable enough to race all the time without having a backup motor? Where can I find these parts?

P.S. This is my first turbo job and my 5th ride on the stable currently. I'm not a noob trying to do this to my daily rider. I'm just not schooled in the turbo arena.

I raced the bike for about 5years almost every weekend @ 17 t0 20 lbs ran 5.40s @ 120s almost no damage but one rod bearing was loose, replaced the crank and rods .The engine had MTC 1026cc 1mm over pistons. it was more like 210-220hp

I dunno what the .... anyone said here but I want one....\\/

220 hp - oooohhh yehhhhh

[Steve]

Hey, Phark,

I know it's not a GS, but here is the best picture I can find real quick that shows what they are talking about: \\/



And, as Monty Python used to say, now for something completely different: :shock:

[Suzukfan78]

Is that a goldwing engine?!!!!

[Steve]

Yep, complete Wing chassis and drivetrain. Other than that, I don't know any other specs.

whoa - now that might just do...

my old black beast is in need of cam chain, disks all round, chain, and prolly a full engine rebuild if Im gunna pull it out anyway.... noisy clutch basket, oil leaks etc....

not work I can do nor afford to have done.... its a shame cause it still goes like a bat out a h3ll.... and other than a ZZR or triumph rocket I cant find another bike I feel more comfortable on than the suzi....

thx Ben

and cheers for the piccy Steve... Im really only half as retarded as I sound lol....:shock:

[fat_sac]

So anyone have any idea where I can find the parts to put one of these monsters together?

[distraction628]
