well,after much tinkering and modification it works.
22hp + turbo = 160 kilometers per hour and very easy crusing in 6th gear at 120 to 125 kph .
it works!

Re: it works!
Great stuff, I'm envious now 
, I did hit 120 Enfield speedo Kph - sitting approx 1 foot off the back of a semi trailer ........ PMSL, couldn't go any quicker as the tacho was up to 4k rpm.
You must do a youtube vid as I'd like to hear the V twin with the turbo, that has got to turn heads.

Re: it works!
don't despair andrew, i also have a clone 418 single like yours and have installed the same turbo my brother has on his gpz. i am having great success with it and will post more info and pictures soon. at 1/4 to 1/2 throtle 5lbs boost no problem, and wide open ive been running it up to 9 lbs up to 4400 rpm. runs smooth and underload sounds and pulls well. mine has a counter balancer in it and so far have probably run it about 500 to 600 km all off road and no issues with it. my prediction when i can run it on the pavement is cruise at 110 to 120 km/hr top speed 130. i have incorporated a few unique features to the installation which have helped with the "pulsing single issue." will explain in more detail when ready. it had enough fuel dialed in on the screw from stock i havn't even had to add more, may even have to back it off a little yet even with boost.

Re: it works!
You see, everyone, it's the harsh winters here in western Canada that force the kind of resourcefulness that you just can't get in Europe or Australia or the USA. Just kidding!
Great work, Boxer. You and your bro got it goin' on.
Cheers,
Phil
