Why would anybody go to all that trouble to get 100 hp when any decent used 03 - 06 S4R will put out well over 100 hp at the rear wheel with no mods at all?

I'm on the same page as LA. All that trouble (and money) for less than 100 at the wheel?
And again, all that effort to plumb the turbo and they throw some plain jane muffler on the pipe blocking the view of the open wheel?
Sorry, I don't get it...

I was thinking the same about the labor/result ratio. Nothing like having some extra time and cash'ola layin around.  for now. |

Hey if he wants to mod the bike, more power to him-it's damn cool.
If we're going to claim mods should add bang for the buck, or bikes in general should, then it doesn't make a lot of sense to be on a duc.

I tip my hat to that work of art.  It is on DucCutters.com, a stock S4Rs would not fly on that site. |

100 hp out of an 800 is pretty damn good.
I feel that mods requiring tons of work are often the best stuff out there. Think about the dealer monster challenge that took place when the new 1100 came out. All anyone did was bolt on parts that were readily available. I would have been way more impressed with seriously custom stuff such as a one off turbo system.

Because you can exactly  No real point in most of this madness... Besides...some would say running an open set of pipes that sound like a flatuating rhino that has eaten a field of fruit and had 20 pots of coffee is retarded...    |

does anybody notice that in the video the out put for the turbo is not connected to anything while he is on the dyno. But on the pictures hits connected?
