  1. As the needle never completely leaves the tube it will have an effect - the MJ basically governs overall fuel flow whilst the needle regulates throughout the range. Do a plug chop whilst riding where is roughest to give a steer on whether fat or lean

  2. The problem is gonna be what size is the sender? The suzuki cap screw 'cover' is M14 or M16 and once you bore and tap the centre out

    you can't tighten it! May be easier to swop it out for a normal hex bolt and a dowty seal / washer and put the sensor in that?

  3. Not wanting to get into a pissing contest but that's the first time I've ever heard anyone call stock studs 'precision machined items' - If your lucky they are forgings with a rolled thread so hardly a precision operation! Clamping pressure comes down to area and torque - APE studs and the stupidly thick bolts used in Busa motors these days have probably 50% greater cross sectional area each step - stock GSXR - APE GSXR - APE Busa allowing respectively greater torque to be applied to the nut / stud combination! Not unheard of busa's with 6-700hp @ 2.5 bar boost using 90+ ftlb torque figures to survive!

  4. Thanks!

    Got really good help from u guys!

    Microsquirt seems exactly what have been looking for...They have 36-1 twheels allso but smallest seems like 4". Will täke a look around to find something smaller.

    BR.

     

     

     

    Triggerwheels.com or .co.uk do a 50mm dia one!

  5. I take it that some of the internals don't take turbo power to well then. What would the crank need to take the load.

    New bearings, fully welded and straightened - ideally dowelled as well + the straight cut primaries!. Easy way to spend a grand!

  6. Oil pressure and modern turbos! Plain bearing turbos will not survive with std GSX 5 - 10psi pressure. Has to be increased and even with 750 gears the 30psi is marginal based on turbo specs. Ideal would be to use a BB cored unit - more expense though! Rajays still work well on draw through installs - harder to find these days but the bearing arrangement suits low aircooled oil pressures!

  7. No build thread - was featured in Streetfighters mag - was built a fair few years ago and had a Mitsubishi hybrid turbo when they were 'state of art' - I'd deffo have a BB turbo now. It never achieved the target it was built for so there is more if I can get motivated again!

  8. Turbos are relatively soft on rods and generally its lubrication failure or deficiency that kills them so that is the one critical area to make sure is right! And yes phill106 it was a big money build and well into 5 figures - mostly not by me happily!

  9. When one of mine got a crack in the fitting to core I did find someone to weld it but the guy wouldn't give any guarantee of success as it'd always be a contaminated weld from the inside - always leaked a bit thereafter so I had to replace it! Sorry - probably not what you want to hear!
