Motor mods for super charger

[insane]

Thanks Ted, with the mods that are needed for the fuel system I think in the ball park of 14 psi might be the way to go. I have a complete dynojet set-up: power commander, ignition module, wideband commander, and lcd screen. I know I have to buy some sensors to add boost to my sled with the dynojet set-up. As far as the water/meth goes, and I understand that consumption depends on how aggressive with the throttle I am, how much is needed for a full tank of 91 octane? I like the idea of going with the 10.7 pistons as race fuel is not readily available in northern maine where i ride. Now about the baby sitting, if I have to sacrifice a couple p.s.i. or do some engine mods to keep from tunning every time the temp changes by two degrees then that is what I am looking for. I would like to utilize most of the hp a stage 2 mpi s/c can supply, by still using pump gas. Hey Sheet Wright, as long as we stay close to subject and remain informative then all is well. lol I think this post could be separated into 4 or 5 different subjects all by itself.

You won't have any problem getting a tank of gas to a tank of meth and if your just trail riding you will be close to two tanks to a tank of meth. My meth don't start to spray till 4psi.

An idea, since it is cheap. Why not put a resevoir bottle on the left, and the right of the sled for greater capacity? One over the clutch. and one over the break area? Or is this a dumb idea? More weight, BUT more power. I gues there is nothing saying you couldn't buy the Yamaha fuel caddies that look like saddle bags and fill one side with Meth mix??

Really,most guy's that have bought our meth kits have found that the meth last's a tank of gas or more.

I was considering fabin' up a tank for that void in the nose of the apex, gotta be a gallon's worth of space up in the front. I can picture carrying water bottles in the trunk, back-pack, and anywhere else I can stash some hp. We have a venture with a dog sled that brings about 30 gallons of gas up to the mountains with us to get us through the day. We are going to have to make room for some windshield wash this year!

I would like one of these too...

But not full nose cone... I have a supercharger that run the charge tube through the right sife of nose casting. but left side abt about half the right side is free.

I think that you should post the way you ride, and what type of riding you do most of the time. That way Hurricane can give you a real world idea of how much you would be using. Secondly I am assuming since this is my first time with boost, that the power is a little bit more instant then just raw horsepower. Like a built engine? I road an Apex over 200HP before and yes it was quick, but more gradual then I expected. Unless you just hammered it. Is that why people on this thread are worrying about cranking up the boost above 10 for the trail? That is what I am kind of reading here

I ride about 60/40 trail/boondocking. The beautiful thing about the forced injection is that it is directly proportional to the rpm of the motor. So again as long as the throttle works I should be able to keep it out of the trees. If it is not functional then maybe I'll have to look at a bov. I do not see why people's opinions are being discussed. I asked a question and for the most part I recived answers. Opinons are like but-holes, everybody has one.lol Thanks sheet wright, I think listing my riding style woud be some helpful info.

You bring up a good point, a BOV is necessary especially at higher boost levels

At what level/poundage do you need this?

My professional opinion NO Turbo or Supercharger should be without one.

I run 2 x 2-quarter meth tanks in my sled, about a gallon in total, starts spraying at 6 lbs with full spray from 18 lbs. Running hard with a lot of WOT runs I use 2 quarters to a tank of fuel. If possible I would recommend installing the pump lower than the meth tanks, pump would be gravity fed.
