Have been to S&R at Penrith and they wanted AUS$12K for about 230hp and if you look at their web site they bad mouth a well known brand that they fitted on Kwaka and had major meltdown. It was a MCxpress kit that a customer had purchased from the USA and they were asked to fit it. Motor blew on the dyno--they said it was the turbo kit.????
Money spent/ horsepower you cant beat a turbo though and unfortunately Mr Turbo kits in the USA are recognised as poor quality/ old technology / low relative output power.
Giggle gas is as you mention an alternative but a 150hp shot ( staged or otherwise ) I dont believe is workable on the street and pistons and exhaust valves will become sacrifical components. 50hp/80hp is more the norm.
Hawkwind is currently installing N20. 2c worth Hawkwind??
