big deal , I am a Mr Turbo dealer but I dont get a woodie when I tell people about it... LOL. anyway ,I dont like bragging on other peoples stuff but since you brought it up, mr turbo has the world?s most powerful STREETBIKE (494 rear wheel horsepower at the MMI Horsepower Shootout). anyway this is obviously going nowhere. you are going to do what you are going to do and I am going to do what I know works. Im getting tired of typing ad dont really care if you put an intercooler and water injection and a spacer plate on your bike with 8psi boost, lol . what ever floats your boat.

question about street bike engines replacements for the ds650
I have a question for Y'all.....
Do any of you conversion guys keep and run your projects long enough to know they are as completely reliable as you say?
Most I have seen build them, sell them after just a few hours of use. That doesn't exactly inspire confidence if you know what I mean.
By the way, you conversion guys are a hostile bunch! You know that? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

LOL, not hostile at all.
I had my last one for 2 years. Rode it, raced it, beat on it in the sand, dirt and snow. Shot enough nitrous to it to kill or numb a heard of elephants with no problems. Ive revved that thing to 14500 wherever I had the room to, still no problems. We can thank Suzuki, Yamaha and Kawi for the reliability, not my doing!

Methanol has an octane rating of 120+.
VP C16 is 117 octane.

question about street bike engines replacements for the ds650
my memory is bad. PCT posted he runs up to 35psi on gas and up to 45psi on methanol. I questioned how he does this with no intercooler and with what compression ratio and he declined to answer.
