Oh, and for the price it would cost you to get one and redo the internals of the engine so it wouldn't go bang, you could buy a new R1 and it would still be more powerful!

Loads if info here from Jens, he is a very clever guy but you will need Mich to translate for you ..

what have i started :D

found a few of the links

like u say a buell is never going to a mega powerfull bike , like most that have buell theres just something about them , there in a different league

its like ridding a cross between a bmx and and moto x

not looking a turbo to make big power just love turbos the sound :twisted:

You might want to start that with a 2009 model, because DDFI-3 ECMs support turbo configuration now.

That means, that the DDFI-3 ECMs are prepared for that. They are also prepared for fuel-showers, if required, and further amazing schnickschnack. These ECUs are not meant to be made for Buell solely, although in real life I assume IDS would be under Chapter 11 without Buell ...
