More Power for Kawasaki

[rjmar55]

My Lehman Storm was a little under powered, I installed a Vance & Hines Power Pak on and what a difference, has passing power now. Now I found a website where an aftermarket company has developed a turbo for the Kawasaki Vulcan 900, I am looking at buying it, has anybody tried a turbo on their Trike?

Be sure that the turbo you are looking at doesn't require an "un-restricted exhaust"system.
A friend did this turbo conversion(don't remember what kind) on a Honda Valk and to balance the turbo with the 6-cylinder motor had to run short straight pipes.That meant six short straight pipes! That thing was so loude you couldn't get close to it.Couldn't drive it on the street,so wound up using as a drag bike.

I know of articles I have read about them, but have not seen any. Sounds like it would be a fun ride though. Good luck.

The Storm could definately use some extra power. Is the V&H power Pac an exhaust system, or more of a fuel managment system ?

[rjmar55]

The Power Pac is a fuel manangement system, you just dial in settings. I had to work with V&H on the settings because of course they don't have Lehman Trikes on their list. It took a couple of times to adjust because I live at 7000 ft. above sea level. It seems to be working good, it must of gave me a good 15 to 20 HP a significant difference, oh and also I had to change the air filter to a high flow.

I wonder how it would work at altitudes below 3000. You are pretty high up. At this level
air is not quite as big an issue..Thanks for the info, Ride safe !!
