      Um , his speedo jumps INSTANTLY from like 70 to 120 . Like NO delay . I don't see how that's possible .

        Also, dropping 25-30 pounds of boost is pretty unlikely, unless he's running a tank engine. I would imagine a bike engine shouldn't have more than about 15 psi.

        There was a great vid on a turbocharged Busa somewhere. The thing flies.

          I dunno where the speedo picks up on that bike (guessing not the front wheel), but on my car if I get the wheels spinning really good the speedo will jump like that up to about 60-70 when I'm barely moving...maybe that's what happened? Seemed like he was fighting for traction. The boost level has got to be BS though...30ish PSI

            Look at the trees and signs around the road. No change when the speed changes that dramatically? BS.

              The tack sound of RPM's and speedo all seem to be together (tire spin). It looks to me like a real vid. Who knows if the if the PSI reading is correct and who knows if the speedo is correct, but the vid seems real.

                Huh , I guess if it reads of the sprocket the spinning wheel COULD explain the speedo jump ... Do many bikes read off the front wheel anymore ?

                  Most run off the output from the tranny which would explain registering tire spin.

                  This guy is riding a turbo-charged bike with just a t-shirt on!?!?!?! Crazy!

                    I would agree with tire spin. BUT, 25-30 lbs of boost is ISH lol. I'm runnin 17 lbs on my car and am right about lean. I suppose he could have upgraded the fuel system accordingly, BUT then you would undoubtably hear some backfiring. 25 lbs of boost would require about 230 lph of fuel, so opening it up, then releasing before full boost would cause some mad ass backfire...anyone with a turbo could tell you that...shit, anyone who understands how a turbo works could! Only one person knows, and that's the guy who put that boost guage on! BTW, when a bike wheelies the front wheel slows down so if (for some reason) it was reading off the front wheel, it would've done the opposite

                      little crazy, the gauge could just read in inHg, and if it is 30 inHg that is roughtly 14.73 psi. but i doubt because all the boost gauges i have seen is inHg for the vac and psi for boost or bar.

                          This is real the reason for the jump in speed is wheel spin, on the busa the speedo is on the front sprocket, notice how it gets to 120 and stays even though hes on the gas. and that boost is easy most strong busa turbo motors run around 20-25 psi, I had a turbo busa.
