and you would need lots of ££££££££££

There's a book out there (can't remember the name of it) specifically about slapping blowers and turbos on bike engines....

Gives links to all the standard installations as well as DIY advice....

But yes, the Busa turbo install is a quite well trodden path....

Natuarally depends on budget.
I would say Blade engine because if / when it goes pop the engines are easy to come buy and cheaper to replace but I only earn £5k a year

If you're gonna stick a turbo on it, I too would go for a Busa.
