Will the Mikuni Carburetor with that 20% extra power shit make these types of turbo not make a difference?
 
yep will probably fry the electrics too hahaha

electric turbos are an absolute crock of shit, its just not possible to make meaningful boost with the small ammount of electrical power the bikes magneto could supply... plus its an axial flow compressor, which is really shit at the kind of application.
 
well don't forget a turbo charger is driven off of the exuast pipe
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbocharger
that thing might work.. but u'd need a better motor on the end and have tore jet ur carbs.... Turbos are not for carberated engines... the problem is that a turbo charger is varible boost due to timing... there fiore you would need to change the ammount of air in the intake.. unless you hace a electronic fuel injected bike then you will skrew ur motor up so badly...
my advice:
buy a supercharger... jet ur carbs once and forget about it
 
What? When turbos were invented there was no such thing as electronic fuel injection. You don't need to change the amount of air in the intake, that's what the turbo does. Yes, you would need to rejet the carby, but you would also need to increase the fuel delivery from the injectors as well. Either way you need to increase fuel flow to deal with the extra air being forced in.

The debate for/against turbocharge/supercharge has been raging for years. The supercharger developes more power, but uses a large percantage of the output to run the supercharger. The turbocharger developes power economically, but develops less power and can create heat problems.
 
often turbos more outright power.. depends on the application

a supercharger is going to have the same fuelling issues as a turbo. you can indeed use carbys with turbos or superchargers, and its not just about rejetting. you need to increase the fuel pressure as the boost rises to stop the boost pushing the fuel out of the carb... easiest way to do that is with a low pressure fuel regulator and electric fuel pump

but still, you're not going to run an electric turbo on any pitbike, and a normal turbo is pushing it still
 
i'm just trying to say that a turbo on a pitbike is uneconomical. i havn't been inside a pitbike carb but typically you would need a pretty wiked needle valve to equalize the intake once the turbo spools up.... then you would need to replace or correct ur valve to compensate for a true turbo lag.. but sense it's driven off an electric motor insted of the exsaust i would call the thing more of a intake enhancer of some other worthless gimmiky name...
 
fine... i just plain don't like turbos though... they aren't needed..... i perfer the standered building a strong motor theory... but w/e i'll just go bak to playing my tennis now
