yup sure did. you just have to read the item description and look at the pics real good. be sure to look at the rezzie check it for leaks, then if the pic is good enough look at the shock shaft, if it looks oily and dirty it may have a leak. i am not sure if a banshee shock is the same or not.

checking the timing requires opening up the engine. so i would remove it from the frame. it makes it a little bit easier.

The supercharged RXPs are 255hp charged 4stroke engines. The charger is a shaft drive unit. It looks just like the exhale side of a turbo. I did some math on your turbo issue. You do not have enough exhaust pressure to spin the turbo. Two things you can try, one is to increase back pressure after the turbo (not the best way to go) the other would be to use a much smaller turbo spool.

i cant remember what the turbo was off of, other than a 94 Zuk street bike. not sure of the turbo size.

Well I took the plunge and got the works banshee shock off ebay, lets pray it fits. It looked to be in good shape, and lots of people swap these onto their warriors so the eyes should be the same diameter and the shock is the right length.

The Mistress started her makeover today. Got her all wrapped up in the primer base coat for the green. I start my designs tomorrow morning. I got a ton of masking to do. I will all most be done with it tomorrow night maybe if my luck holds out. Ran into a few snags with the frame being weak in some spots. Nothin a MIG didnt solve though.
