You got a link and do you know about the hoses Ken that go to the carbs are they for the float bowl and air box/ intercooler equalization. They said on the email I am going to need to do this, equalize the two.

A 5% gain in power isn't enough. I looked into them and appreciate their honesty but a 5% power simply isn't enough!

I'm wondering if there will be a problem with the slides opening on this setup. On turbo engine you use boost pressure into the carb vents to open the slides but normally aspirated uses vacuum from the airbox to pull them up. How's this going to work with only 1# of positive pressure ? I don't see how this can work with this kind of carb, Ken.

They garuantee 5% that 7 more HP on a 140 HP engine. Your ECP kit gave us about the same HP I believe just by removing the air box and allowing it to breathe with jetting and plugs. Well this is going to force feed it all the air it wants by keeping a positive air pressure on the intake side at WOT. I am thinking I am going to see at least 7 HP could be more like 10 HP.

How did the ECP kit work (for example) without the airbox or boost then?

I thought about the slides also, but if you already have the throttle wide open when you kick this on, they will already be up. I don't think it will matter for this setup. Maybe if you used the fan from idle on up it would be a problem.

Holy man I wish this thing would arrive. I am chomping at the bit waiting to test it. Wish I could dyno the sled now to get a good comparison but I dont think they can do a sled in town here.
Sled Dog you have one coming?!!

Yes I sure do!
Cool man good luck!! You might want to get a wide band O2 to see what it does to the jetting with it on and off. That could allmost act like a dyno. Letting you know if it does need more fuel with it on!! It is working!!

The site says as long as I attach the float bowl vents to the charged side of the e-ram the carbs will supply the amount of fuel needed. I will see how it runs first. I was thinking of going with the cr10ek plugs and jetting up a bit also. The stock airbox is going to be gone and I am going to be building an alumium air box that the e-ram fits onto. This e-ram only comes on when WOT so I thought if I jet up a bit I would see some gain throughout and then get the boost at WOT. I will be reporting here how stuff goes. A bike racer buddy of mine in town has all that stuff I need to get it right where I want it. The very first thing I have to check is to see if it builds at least 1 psi pressure I am hoping for 1.5 psi or more but I will be happy with 1. If it does I will proceed if not it will go back in the box and back to e-ram.

Always use USPS Priority when you can. It is the best, reasonable and usually two days.
