EVERY ONE WANTS ONE OF THESE

YES THERE'S A TURBO IN THERE

 

[OffroadMT]

Clean install ! Who built it ?

 

[KAWGRN]

Yep I figured that would be the one bike to turbo with all that space behind the engine,, would like to see how they got to the TB though!

 

[CATSLEDMAN1]

TOO MUCH TO THINK ABOUT

good look'n turbo install................hp estimate?

 

[mountainhorse]

Leiphemer (sp?) in Butte Mt. made this kit.

In the initial tuning stages... runs well so far... more to come..

Thanks Slash.

Is there any way to modify the front air intake around the rads so you could pull from a turbo sock or something? That is the ONLY downside to the YZF... otherwise it's a super strong bike.

 

[KAWGRN]

Looks to me like its got an intercooler,then comming off the top it probably goes to the TB since you dont need the airbox, would like to see that part, the rear I worked out in my mind when I had a 2012 yzf, almost kept it,then decided nitrous on the 570 seemed like a good option!

[SLDHVN]

o boy, that looks like it would fit my bike nicely

[Jon Mutiger]

Does the maker intend on selling this kit? If so, any idea how much this would be? It it something that can be "bolted" on by the average joe at home?

I thought so since you had the engine turned around in yours too... well, at least there is now ZERO excuse to not buy one. I would like to book a full day on it sometime at the end of January.

Sell Pro, buy turbo. Sounds right to me. Hell, you should have a couple bucks left over!

[swedenturbo]

Nice turbo kit but not much information about its performance.
Boost, hp?

FYI

I just got off of the phone with Mark from Leipheimer's, nice guy!

This is a prototype kit(obviously), but they are looking to release a production kit around January assuming the rest of their testing goes well. Mark said the bike on dirt is an ANIMAL!

The bike is a 2012 Yamaha YZ 450f, with a stock motor. They are looking to run upto 10 psi on these kits, hopefully pump gas. It has an air to air intercooler and 1 radiator deleted and using the mcxpress hardware for fuel control. price point should be about $4500-5000.

Thanks for the info Mark!
