doubt it, they are very very hard to rig up to a quad, because there isnt enough room for the inter-cooler, and if you run without a intercooler youll have to stop every 15mins and let it cool off......

i know an old buddy that moddified a turbo from a honda civic to put on his 400ex.....it lasted about a week and he blew the head right off of the motor from the pressure. it was putting out somehwere around a 7lb boost which is way way too much for an aluminum head 400cc

so i would beleive it would be the same on a raptor....so either get pics or we all call BS on you

have you been paying attention to what the mods are saying?? please dont flame people here. also, do a google search for turbo raptor, there is a kit you can buy that is bolt on. maybe do a little homework before you accuse somebody?? pics would be nice though!!

ill get some pics

Posted by: tater_kamik

sweet!! was it a kit or did you piece it together? if it was a kit, could you do a review on it, and if you pieced it together, could you do a sort of how to? im not throwing on an turbo ever, but it would be good info for anyone interested!

Posted by: 450robot

yes, there are a few different companies that make turbo and efi kits for raptors and other quads, kms for instance

and your buddy is a dumbass to put a turbo on a stock compression 400ex, you need a special lower compression piston (often included in the kits) to cope with the high pressure and boost of a turbo

who is making efi kits for the raptor!?! do you have any info for them because i would love to make that switch!!

Posted by: Raptorider660R

KMS Performance makes em along with turbo kits

Is the turbo worth the money would you say? does it put out useable power or more so drag-racing-only type powerr
I was looking at getting all Long travel suspenion/swingarm etc now, but of the turbos worth it i might go with that instead for now....
