Default Turbo for YFM350 motor?

I was doing a little research on a forced induction setup for the yfm350 motor with no luck, i found out powroll made a supercharger for the warrior back in the 80's. Anyone know of a turbo or supercharger for this motor?

so... 3 or 4k to get ~40hp on warrior while making it unreliable, or trade it in and buy a new machine with the target hp for less. You see why it didnt last?

tell that to the people riding pocket bikes with lots of money dumped into them, buy a real motorcycle that goes faster instead of hopping up 50cc engines in tiny frames. If he wants to turbo his warrior let him I doubt he is doing it for practical reasons. He was just askin a question, different strokes for different folks.

heh, yea, people think its crazy and wrong to turbo a warrior, i fabricated up my own turbo system on my warrior during summer. its still reliable as stock, but its far from stock... biggest problem with it is the starter. but its a 89 so i didnt mind messin it up. I just have to pull start it when i wanna ride it, big problem with turbos tho, LAG!! but it might be because i took the turbo off of a wrecked honda, heh, honda to yamaha who would have thought. well either way im runnin 8.3 lbs of boost and it really dont do half bad, but it has to run with the largest jet possible in the carb and i had to install an electric fuel pump to keep the carb full all the time. its a blast and still a warrior that happens to fly!
