Re: USA diesel bike chopper Atl. Ga.
Seems this is built by same guy (Head Turner customs) that was formerly out of Dallas. Another similar chopper is listed here in Classfieds from few years back. This is NOT same bike. On a recent youtube video he gave further explanation of how the turbo works. Similar info in his old 2013? video but this time with a smidge more detail.
[quote="fromYoutubevid](Sir the turbo helps) it is a noticeable gain in power on the mid to top end, but the key is the intercooler. It adds volume to intake system, which reduces pressure buffeting from the single cylinder engine having the intake valve open only 1/4 of the time. If a short pipe with a small volume between the Turbo and intake valve is pressureized by the Turbo to 10psi, then the valve opens and the pressure still drops to a vacuum and no oxygen is added to the cycle. And now you have a plug in the exhaust giving no power back.[/quote]
here is his youtube page. He is still building bikes. such as a twin CVT Kubota Trike
