Turbo refurb?

[ollyc98]

No i'm not turboing my micra, I'm turboing my bike, how much will it cost roughly to refurb a turbo? I can pick up a used turbo for £20 which seems good but needs refurbing.....

By bike do you mean that 50cc ped!? You must be looking over £100 for a recon, if it breaks, buy a new one if its only £20!

Yeah I wanna turbo my 50, I've managed to squeeze 57MPH out of it by putting on a performance carb, I'll put a C70 head on it to lower the C/R then slap on a turbo, should be a giggle

Thats the bike i had till it went under a car! (That type of bike, thats not my personal one, nor do i condone driving like that on the roads!)
It was slow, handled crap... but i loved it!

Nice! yeah mine does most of that stuff, stand on the rear footpegs and get the frotn wheel up.

I dropped the seat a few inches earlier as the seat was higher than the handlebars, handles much better now so I want it to go faster
