dirtwheels had a article bout it it is 4,300 with a intercooler they say you have to have one if you run over 9psi of boost and you also have a electronic boost regualtor wihich will have your engine last longer. and a wb e-series pipe or r-4 and a really laot higher quality air filter than a k&n .;) also for raptors they say on vp gas and perfect jetting at 15.23 psi of boost the raptor created 78hp and with a pipe only! and a 400ex created 56.1 hp i dont know the boost though!

yeah you double the power of it but probably less reliability.

the problem about turbos is lag, sionce its a single tubo and the vein is probally set up for mid to high you have stock power from idle to about 4k rpm, then wham double hp. youll be on your back. no good for the trails but would be quite the spice in the dunes

My dads friend has a turbo on his 400ex, it blows the modded shees to raptors away. BUt he didn put the 3,000 dollar setup on it. Im thinkin of buying a turbocharger off some foriegn street bike. Looking at spending 900$ instead of 3,000. It probly wont have as much performance and wont be as reliable but yet much cheaper. I no a few models of streetbikes that have turbos so ill give it a try......
