aw4g63,
My Banshee is almost stock, all I got is T-5 (soon 2 b T-6) pipes and a K&N filter. I know it would whoop your quads ***.

So aslong as you pipe in with worthless unbackable comments anything you say is worth as much as the raw fuel spewing out of my exhaust.

For the record the guy at the track claimed it was a KX500 quad. Im not that guy there for I cant stand up to his claims. Its just what he said.
No matter what kind of tubeframe it was it still clicks around 12.5 I think that was the point of my statement.

(stuntfest is june 20-22 @Thompson Speedway)
Then everyone can throw the BS flag if I cant do it.

yeah that guy at the track could run way faster then 12.5's too, ive talked to him alot last summer, he has a drag bike also. He is scared shitless to shift that quad out of 3rd gear, so thats as high as he goes down the track!im betting he could run 10's! Hes a crazy ****. Thompson dont give a ****, thats why the 1/8th mile markers dont work.

Boost?
So how much boost did you end up seeing with that thing?
I remember you saying you were going to hook a gauge up, but I couldnt find the results.
If I had to guess, I'd say you arent making any boost at all. Just because you can see the impeller spinning, doesnt mean the turbo is producing positive manifold pressure.
In fact, I think the only reason the motor runs/hasnt blown up yet is due to the fact you arent making any boost.
What mods did you do to your carb to make it "turbo ready"
