Up and running for over a year now. Faster than an R1.<hr />
All stainless steel exhaust system, intercooled to keep intake charge cool, blow off valve to protect carbs, all hidden behind fairings.
How much power you ask? At 8 psi a third gear roll on causes the front tire comes off the ground and it spins the rear tire with my 215 lbs on it (that's with one tooth larger front sprocket). Boost starts a 4,000 rpm and is on full boost by 8,000 rpm. The engine is stock. It will run all day at WOT @ 10psi.
Sorry, no video, and I'm really sorry, it will cost you $3500 to have one (2 decals included).
This system will fit the carburated '99-'02 R6 with a flat radiator. The '03+ are fuel injected with a curved radiator. I currently don't have access to an '03 to make the necessary changes to the fuel set up and intercooler.
Thanks for all of your comments. Please feel free to ask any question you might have. Look here in my original post for updated info and answers to your questions.<hr />
I hope to be able to offer these systems early this summer. If you would like to get on for yourself, email me your contact info at insaneturbo@cox.net.

YES, there is a god. Where did you get this turbo kit, I've been looking for 2 years now and no one seems to make one for the R6. Also, how much did you pay? When are you going to post a video of that bad boy. We can see your camera mount... :D Also, what psi are you running at?

Okay, I'll see what I can do about a video clip. Did anyone happen to notice in the first picture the bracket on top of the tank? It is used to hold my data logger (aka mini camcorder) while making test runs.

That's awesome. How bout some better pics though. And what kind/size turbo is being used? Did you get dyno's before and after the kit was installed? Are you running stock compression? Did you replace the neddle seats? What are the intake temps? Does it have an auxiliary oil pump? What its the turbo manifolf made of, the type of welding used, and is it braced or just a free hang? These are just a few questions that came to mind, but gotta run for now. Can't wait for the replies. bbs

How bout some actual numbers. . . .quarter mile times, dyno runs, etc. . . . I think he said he was running 8-10 psi usually.

Need Turbo, do you have a really loud blow-off valve?
Can I get the same setup for under $2 thousand?
Is the turbo loud?
Does it melt your fairing?
