[Trill]

Sweet find dude! [up]

 

[delta one]

$2,908.35
+ shipping
+ install

ouch! that's what most guys have into the "hole in frame" bikes to begin with, (or about what the current book value is )

but if it GREATLY increases performance (read: increase is better than 50%) I would probably still do it.

Thats a shitload of money for what is included. I am not a fan of the secondary injector either, just looks like a janky kit to me.

That wolf pack has very high quality parts and all are handmade for perfect fitting. I think with special order they will make the pipes fit for 06+ yearmodels.

My friend dynoed the first one proboost xb9s with wolf pack, and well, It is a true beast

I am sure it's quality, but for 3k def not worth it, considering the only "custom" parts are a slip fit header pipe and a 90* aluminum T. There is an honest $1000-1200 MAX in parts in that kit. For 3k I would expect a custom garrett or borg, not an off the shelf TD04, equal length ss manifold & dp, either an air/water or air/air intercooler, and fabbed charge piping that didn't use hose couplers, and even a standalone with larger injectors for that much. I am not saying the kit isn't quality, or doesn't make power, I'm just saying thats a high price to pay for what's there.

Blows my mind how companies build or piece together kits then have no real data to back up the product. Pictures are always a must to in my opinion.

 

[Glade21]

Yeah man, I don't see any installed pics or anything, I mean you can throw a turbo on anything and make it alot faster, but you can also do it properly and have it make more power and be more reliable. The thing that just scares me is boosting an air cooled motor without any means of cooling the intake charge, it might run good for a while, but I wouldn't be taking that bike on any long trips, there is more to forced induction than just a piggyback injector, turbo and boost gauge.

I would like to see a turbo kit for around $1200 us. people just are not going to spend that much. Maybe If they added a forced air/oil cooler for that price.

I thought AeroCharger made a kit for the XB? I know they were the supplier on the Diablo (Turbo) bikes that Buell made.
