    Default Any info on a turbo for the F3's

    I have a 2015 F3's with automatic looking to find a turbo install that is a complete package that's been tested as reliable. I see a few but they all seem proto types. Any info would be appreciated
    Thank You Kindly,

    The only aftermarket turbo kit offered, was by Aerocharger. It came out about 8 years ago for the GS/RS bikes. They were working on the kit for the 998-equipped RTs, but it never made it to the marketplace. .
    But it might be worth looking them up, and seeing if they pursued this any further.
    Happy hunting!

    Some of those kits came here to New Zealand 2 or 3 if l remember and were fitted by a dealer just down the road from me Bat out of Hell was there name and the one fitted to a manual RS SE was out but the one fitted to the RS SE6 Semi Auto was a total disaster the clutch could handle it so they tried all sorts of modes with help of the suppliers but they ended up putting back to standard but not before several thousands of dollars spent trying to get it sorted I did see this Spyder myself just before it was removed, they did tell me that they had fitted one on an early RT but have never seen it around.

    Turbo is a niche market within a niche market for the

    A company that comes with a reliable one that has been tested well, would probably sell a few. Enough to make a profit--not sure on that one.


    Checking on Aerocharger is a good idea. There are some threads in the archives. Aerocharger is probably a good search item.

    Docdoru had one. It took him a while to figure out how to keep the clutch alive, but he did.
