    Low power at 15psi. With dyno graph

    Do you have any provisions for proper oiling in your car application? They have a hard time keeping oil pressure when they experience lateral g’s.

    Macintosh Sheelie Bars?

    Drives me nuts too, especially the threads involving motor issues and tuning issues. i was lucky to find the guy who made these adapters. He makes medical devices and aircraft parts via a cnc shop he runs. I recall the cost was about 250. I still need wheelie bars and a strut...and for Covid to...

    Macintosh Sheelie Bars?

    A bit chipped up. I painted them 2 years ago and threw them under my tool cabinet.

    Macintosh Sheelie Bars?

    I know this is years old, but I wanted to follow up with my solution. I had custom axle block/ adjusters made locally. They’re aluminum (the aircraft grade aluminum) and take the place of the Macintosh axle blocks. They have upper and lower arms that allow for the upper and lower bars to mount.

    2006 busa running bad

    Did they pull off the throttle bodies? If so, it’s very easy to incorrectly reinstall, with the lower throttle body NOT reseated properly. You’d need to look with a small mirror and a light. This should create an over lean condition, but it is worth checking. No codes being thrown?

    Ebay Spam

    I nust checked the poster's name and skipped them. I will not be going anywhere. Free sight and the knowledge gathered and shared here has literally been the difference between my successfully boosting and being SOL.

    Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Gen Ii

    No BST has done that. Damage yes, extreme hp and traction damage yes, delamination no. I just don't want to lump BST in with other cf manufacturers. I don't know for sure, but I'm guessing bicycle rims aren't tested and held to the higher standards required to get a DOT approval. If this post...

    Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Gen Ii

    Yah, I would likely not be so pro BST if my local roads were pothole laden/prone. We have vey mild weather in Seattle and major potholes are rare and they are fixed quickly if reported. I saw a pic of a Ducati that hit a cement bit while on a track and at full lean. Nothing but a hub and the...

    Bst Carbon Fiber Wheels For Gen Ii

    Pothole impact damage isnt falling apart. Bill Warner put roughly 1000 hp to his at 311 mph, along with many near 300 mph runs. Carbon fiber can shatter with impact, but it is incredibly tough with loading. I wouldn't buy a carbon fiber hammer, but BST's to me are very safe, albeit horrible at...

    Fuel Pump Relocation Pix-external

    FYI: I used 3 zip ties to mount the fuel pump to the bottom rear of the battery tray. You will need to drill the required holes in your battery tray. The zip ties I used have stainless blades for tighteninging and they are rated for 75lbs each, but I'm sure some big fat zip ties from any store...

    Fuel Pump Relocation Pix-external

    Here are the pics. The return line is the stock hose, with stock fittings. The supply line is "unkinkable". IF the supply line ever kinks the motor will melt...bad. I hope the pics are clear enough to show the routing. I had to use the space between the top of the cases and the swingarm to...

    Fuel Pump Relocation Pix-external

    I've tried to get pics. Too tightly packed in to see well. However? I can get pics and take a look and probably describe how to install and it's exact location. There are couple if tricks to running the fuel line so it won't want to pinch. Mostly I ended up with a bit of fuel line looping into...
