    Hey guys

    I've decided to turbo my 48 and was wondering if anyone here has done it - especially in Qld  

    I am thinking of using procycle dyno in slacks creek for a custom set up as I don't like the look of any of the kits that are on offer  

    Any help or input would be rad  

    Cheers

    I took my r6 there for a dyno and was really happy with their service.

    I'll head in early jan and have a chat.

    They seem to have a good background on Dyno tests & tune, BUT that's bugger all of a Turbo install.

    You really need to be looking for someone that has experience in that field - and if Pro Dyno have then all is good!!!

    Hope you have deep pockets as its not a cheap path to go down if your outsourcing it to a shop to do, but NOTHING is better than a turbo Harley! Check out Procharger as they may make an item for your machine.

    The trask kit looks like arse though.

    I'm happy to pay a premium and have it custom done to have it look much better.

    Aerocharger make a very tidy unit! (No oil lines and no wastegate)

    I have one mounted on the left side of the bike so the plumbing is very tidy.
