if possible could someone who has a turbo'd joyner 650 please take a picture or tell me where they get the oil pick up from. I am researching into putting a turbo on my joyner 650 but refuse to pay the £2000 people over here in the UK are asking for them when the parts can be sourced individual for a lot less. i have just a couple of questions if anyone can answer them.

1. the plumbing of the oil return should be quite easy but where do you get the oil feed from, you can get an oil feed from an oil cooler sandwich plate between the filter but wondering if there was another place that would be easier and cheaper.
2. do you need to get a water cooled turbo and run an intercooler or is this optional do the kits use an intercooler im aware that using one would lower intake temps.
3. im aware of the need of an uprated fuel pump and pressure regulator but what fuel pressure is needed.
4. how about fuel enrichment for when the boost kicks in.
5. do you need to do anything abot the ignition timing as when i turbo'd my car a few years ago i had to install a timing retard system for when the boost kicked in.
6. does the standard carb work well with the turbo or do i need to rejet.
i know theres a lot there but any help would be welcome thank you.

Search for 650* turbo to bring up links to many of your questions. if you look at the 800cc installs, they may also answer some of your questions.

Hi there im also from the UK (midlands area) im in the middle of fitting my own turbo system to my 650 joyner, its not finished yet as work keeps getting in the way.
I have fitted a water cooled turbo, ive taken my oil feed from the pressure switch by fitting a T piece in line & the water ive taken from the top off the water pump, cooling seems to work well.
It should work ok on the standard carb but it will need to re-jetted so ive fitted an A/F meter & lambda sensor to the exhaust system so i can see how it performes. Ive also fitted an intercooler to keep charge air temp down a BOV a fuel pressure regulator (boost sensitive) & a high output coil & leads, as to timing ive not got that far yet as im away working so it will have to be finished when i return to the UK.
I hope this helps send me an email & i can send you some pics simontwowheels@btinternet.com

too funny, i see you listed two buells in your stable and my xb12r is sitting right here next to me in my kitchen. wouldn't want her to get cold or see any salt, i have an old honda for that! luckily an understanding wife as well...
