    Default Ahhh dang super charger

    So has anyone hooked up a super charger to there bike with 4 carbs? I have 4 intakes so I have to somehow make this thing pump psi in each intake. I guess if I left the stock airbox on I could have hooked it up to the big dam open air hole and been done with it.

    Its not that simple, the airbox on most bikes isn't meant to be pressurized. If you do it will leak horribly. If you can rig it so its sealed better you may be able to reuse the stock air box but it will probably require some sort of manifold to work best.

    standard carbs don't like to be pressurized.... and why the hell would you want a big bulky supercharger on a bike?

    You will need a shop to do it. You will not have the necessary fab skills.

    It's much easier to go turbo.

    You std. carbs. What all kind of carbs are there because these arent the stock ones that came with the bike. Turbo huh, so if I got turbo I still would have to do bov and wastegate and change out the manifold right?

    actually you can build a manifold out of PVC pipe and epoxy

    Do a search for Westech ZX11. They made a turbo kit for the ZX11's for $4500. They have a decent list of parts and pics, so you can get a good idea of what is involved. Also read their tech sheets.
