why did you run the vacuum line to the throttle bodies, instead of the plenum like most say to?

nickelcityracing · « **Reply #102 on:** April 15, 2011, 03:50:46 AM »

I have the vacuum line from the waste gate going to the plenum and one from the plenum feeding a possible boost gauge,,,, the others are fed from the throttle bodies... my last stage 1 and my ultra system was fed like this also, as per Richards instructions, just fallowing what he told me to do .... thanks Jody

I also took a few pics of the street glide, I stripped all the chrome off the get powder coated, I am going to change the forks to black ones while I am here also... still waiting for some parts for the turbo....

You gotta post picture of the glide that seem like nice dream bike.

nickelcityracing · « **Reply #117 on:** May 03, 2011, 07:25:31 PM »

here is the completed exhaust

nickelcityracing · « **Reply #118 on:** May 03, 2011, 07:26:36 PM »

here is the bike going on the dyno

nickelcityracing · « **Reply #119 on:** May 03, 2011, 07:28:06 PM »

we had to cut the dyno session short, a little leak from the head gasket, very low boost, must have been that way from the start... damn.... more work..

nickelcityracing · « **Reply #120 on:** May 03, 2011, 07:29:52 PM »

did a little work on the street glide, striped most of the chrome off to powder coat black, and changed out the forks for black ones and changed the upper cow bells to retro Arlen Ness ones...

nickelcityracing · « **Reply #121 on:** May 03, 2011, 07:30:50 PM »

the turbo should be in any day now, we hope....
