Turbo GSXR-1000

[2wheeler]

Not sure if I'm early or late with this thread. We've started on the bike, but it won't be finished 'til late winter/early spring.

The plan is to build the first turbo sportbike in the area, and be the first 8 second streetbike in the area as well.

The bike is a 2008 GSXR-1000. On a stock motor with bolt-ons, the bike has been in the 9.50's.

The bike will be built with parts/service from:

 -Orient Express - motor internals 
 -Velocity Racing - turbo system 
 -McIntosh Machine & Fabrication - swingarm
 -Laske Fabrication - metal fabrication 
 -Solid Performance - assembly & tuning
 -Tintmasters - various pieces/accessories

The bike.

How it looks currently.

A few weeks ago the motor was pulled and these were installed.
Cometic headgasket. Head studs/nuts, manual cam chain tensioner and valve springs from Orient Express.

Forks internally lowered by Chuck at Solid Performance. (lowered fork on top vs. stock length fork)

Ohlins steering damper.

Exoticycle billet quick access clutch cover.

I'll update as progress continues.

The color is most likely changing.

Looks good, can't wait to see how it does. Let me know when you are ready to upgrade that thimble-sized turbo.

Got the 1.5" oil pan in.

Oh yeah, the turbo kit came in yesterday too.

It's a Garrett GT 2860 turbo, and a Tial 38mm wastegate.

Yes.

(refer to post #1)

Yes I figured that from post one...but you forget this is Fargostreet. 99.9% of talk about what you are going to do to your car/whatever is usually a lie.

Looks good.

Looks very nice, should be nice to see the outcome. Do you have dyno results from before? And can we expect to see this thing on the street regularly, or mostly a strip bike??

Also, im assuming a misprint, but 20mm compressor??

The bike made 170 HP in its previous state (Brock's pipe, PC3, tune).

This bike should be on the street regularly.

Yep, misprint. 2860. Thanks.

Thats some nice looking stuffs. Looks like a GT2860R. You can't forget the R, that makes it faster.

:bom:
