Here it is folks the progress build of my Turbo Busa! Should have made this thread a long time ago but never got around to it.
Bought my 03 Hayabusa bone stock with 6k on the clock from a dealer in mass about a year ago now. Never sat on one, never rode one, just loved the look, style, and power of a busa. When I walked into the dealer that day it was my first time ever sitting on one! I fell and love and to this day its been the best purchase I have made in a long time.
I owned a CBR 600 before the Busa but I just wanted bigger. Rode the Busa all summer with a few mods and then the idea of a turbo busa came about and land speed also came to mind. I had gone 10.9 on the busa in stock form on my first pass ever on a motorcycle and took it as a sign. I had been trying to go 10's in my DSM for 6+ years and here I go 10.9 first time ever going down the track on a bike! It was time to change...
I finished out the year with a best of a 10.4 in the stock form and the transformation began shortly after the season closed. I tossed around the idea of selling my current race car in order to fund the turbo build which would be nothing short of expensive! I had a long talk with my main sponsor/builder in Maine and we decided it was time to move out of the turbo DSM world and into the turbo busa world.
To make a long story short my sponsor/builder took in trade my old race car for Paint/Powder coating/ Engine build. Paint and powder coating came out perfect but I got burned on the Engine part. Long story there...
The way I met the main builder/sponsor was through one of the local forums and I just happened to look at his location and turned out he was right in fall river! He has built many Turbo bikes and multiple fast cars and has been racing since he was 19 and is 30 something now. He has a wealth of knowledge and is extremely smart and a very down to earth guy. I approached him about the idea of turbo charging my busa and how I was going to go about it selling my current race car etc. at the time. I should have made this thread way back then but due to time constraints just never got around to it.
Here is his site and some of his rides. He owns 2 turbo Hayabusa's and 1 Turbo GSXR 1000
Ruthless Performance Motorsports
Here is a few of his bikes.
First thing I acquired on my quest was a full enclosed trailer for the bike. Got a hell of a deal on it! 1k!
Here is a pic of it just before we tore it apart. It ran perfectly fine and was sitting at about 9k miles. Ran like a top.
