Hi Happycheapskate,

I don't know the model number but it looks like it is for a small motor. Ron is very sharp about building wild Whizzer motors. I have the twin engine Whizzer he built [to run for the Bonneville record], and my recently departed friend Terry McAllister had the 2 cylinder Whizzer motor called the "VeeZer". All of his Whizzers run well, therefore I am sure the turbo is the correct size.

Have fun,

Thats neat. I have a question for any of you motorheads that might know:

If a HT engine's head volume is increased (double gaskets, different head, spacer and 2 gaskets etc), but the bore is not, can its horspower be increased if the new head does not lower compression too much to fire?

I thought it was related to the topic because often when adding a turbo to an engine, the compression ratio or cylinder volume total must be adjusted to prevent knocking and optimise cylinder filling on intake stroke.

This is the first time I've ever heard of someone putting a turbo on a chinese bicycle gas engine.
