Hey, Jeff.. Thanks. Mike wants to sell the modified HT-10B all day long, and I did purchase one from him, slightly modified for about $1k. I feel that I paid WAY too much, but I was refered to him as the expert and he didn't list any other options. The IHI can be modified, where as the HT-10B is an oddball and you've got to pay Mike big $$$ to have the work done.. Anyone know the CFMs on the stock unit? -d The HT-10B I've got can produce 24 psi of boost. I don't know much about the induced heat at 20+ psi, wondering how the IHI would compare. I understand that IHI has a very good compressor design in terms of efficency. >From: jjareo@tir.com >To: Darin Ginther <d_ginther@hotmail.com> >Subject: Re: Warner-ihi turbo >Date: Fri, 08 Oct 1999 12:05:07 -0400 > >Hi Darin > Yes I am runninng an IHI on my bike and it has picked up the performance >greatly.
