yeah those turbos are sweet.
i watched a lot of youtube videos where they install them, they say it doesn't built boost but does increase the power a little bit because of the extra air coming in, but it'll be cool nonetheless

My brother has been building dirt bikes with my niece and nephews and I keep thinking about slapping one of these turbos on one.

we're going to fix up this go kart, paid $300 just for what you see + a old 196cc china motor that doesn't have all the parts to know if it runs or not
but its going to be a fun project, going to buy one of those tiny amazon turbos and put it on just for fun first thing we're going to do is move the axle and motor back, and get as much leg room as possible. that'll be our first fab project |

temu got me with this green one for $200 bucks lol...
it basically has the same motor but a small front sprocket, and larger rear, it is ridable with a low top speed how it comes, i moved the bars forward so you can sit with your knees like normal so its pretty cool lol i cut up a pocket bike exhaust and put it on it, and it defeatedly feels better than the stock muffler, not too loud but kinda loud i guess i bought a 3hp motor for it, and i'll switch the front sprocket and it will be fast lol |

it kept throwing the chain while we were testing out the new motor and sprocket because the rear axle would slip around because of having too small of washers, so basically we extended the end of the swing arm for more adjustment because i couldn't find my chain breaker, and it gives him a chance to make something, we also used some old 67 camaro fender spacers for washers
he welded them with my flux core unit. i was surprised he did good, he has been taking classes at school too |

anyone fucking with these things, everything is cheap except the initial purchase of the kart itself, even if its POS they still want hundreds of dollars. whatever lol
my son and i have been fucking around with mini bikes and go karts, hes getting interested in fabrication so we've been doing small things here and there on them i bought this temu mini bike on a whim and it would barely move with the stock setup once you got going it would go good enough but it was pretty gay i bought a new front sprocket and a motor with 1.8kw ~ 3hp instead of the stock 1.6 (claimed) hp. its a pretty noticeable difference on how it runs you can tell it at least has more power, combined with the smallest front sprocket its actually is pretty fast lol... |
