Yep, this is correct. It's not an MC though, it's the lazy bastard's turbo
conversion :) It's a JT with K24 Audi diesel stuff on it. I'm running 7-8
psi right now. The bottom end punch that it gives at 2000 RPM is pretty
amazing. Next weekend, with some heat shields and maybe a tiny bit more
ignition advance I'm going to break into the 15s. Again the limiting factor
with the way I did the conversion is that the downpipe I have on the car is
still under 2 inches in diameter which makes the power fall off at about
5000 RPM. EFI, a bigger turbo, and mid 13s are coming in another month or
two.
