500HP Turbo Hayabusa for $1500 PT 3.5 SHE GAVE UP THE GHOST! HP TECH

[@munter10]

Thanks for the update Rob, your explanation on the cause of the bearing failure was excellent. Makes perfect sense and I visualised the balance shaft moving across sideways and the oil gushing out the hole under pressure . . . as you said, "like a stuck pig!" lol. All because that little 10mm headed bolt backed out. Bummer. Note to self . . be sure to loctite that bolt whenever I tear down and reassemble my (or anyone's) Busa engine. This information you are sharing is very much appreciated, it is so difficult to find any technical info based on experience such as yours, on the net or even from any techs that I know personally. Here in NZ there is very few Busas in circulation, let alone being turboed or even built, so the info is thin on the ground here. At some point I will build my Gen 1 engine, it has 80,000 miles on it and still strong, but one day it will get the treatment it so deserves with top shelf parts and performance components. Looking forward to your next vid mate, look after yourself and don't forget to rest occasionally. Kiwi Rider @ the oRg.

Thanks so much for taking the time to write this up. It makes this all worth it if someone is getting something from this.

@@BoostedCyclePerformance if you had an actual oil pressure gauge yiu could have avoided it right? Because 38psi is so low and you would have stopped directly...

Hey Rob, thank you for creating these videos. I enjoy them a lot. I like the way you talk it out. We are all learning. I have not rebuilt my Hayabusa yet but someday maybe. Your oil situation could happen to anyone. Don’t sweat it man. I think you were on a good line of thinking on the “500 hp for $1,500” thing. I agree with all of your points. You were right on the line with the stuck ring thing. That was close. Coulda been a lot worse! Keep up the good work! 🤘🏼👍🏼

[@mokokawi]

Sorry that happened...but glad you figured it out....look forward to your customers bikes and Lucy getting back together ❤

[@Maori_Racer299]

Your a legend bro, finding this is all part of the build as you already know. I'm sure when you finally get time to remedy those weaknesses. It will make 500 hp easy as. Look forward to it thats for sharing.

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Honestly, this was a really stupid freak accident. I’ve never seen this happen before. But, it just so happens to do something like this when it’s in the spotlight. But thanks for watching and for the kind words.

[@FirstLast-tx3yj]

@@BoostedCyclePerformance will you ever revive the series?

[@MrGsxrme]

Just subscribed and thank you for the channel to follow. I personally had a 400hp 2005 turbo Hayabusa rocking a gtx3076r gen1. It was a rocking experience and learning curb on what it takes to make it a safe and daily. I lost my engine do to harmonics after deleting my counter balancer even with a balanced crankshaft with the gear professionally removed. Not going to go into the details on it but she had rods, pistons and studs of course. I hope your future Journey moving forward helps on any previous failures that you have experienced. I'm personally in the market looking for a salvage gen 1 Hayabusa to start the new project myself.

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Thanks for watching. I’m building a gen 1 right now with a GTX3076 GEN2. Pretty crazy you can get a 700hp turbo in what was a 500hp turbo footprint. When I make the tear down video I’ll show what went down. It was a stupid problem.

[@rhetericalpha]

Damn! Sorry to hear this but really you're doing us a service from all your testing and the info/mishaps that happen. We all are learning. Can't wait to see more

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Thanks for watching, and I’m glad you’re getting something out of my videos.

[@SimonBillhult]

Sorry to see but very well explained and educational. Hope too see it back together soon.

Greetings from Indonesia sir,thank you for sharing information on this video

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

You’re very welcome. Thanks for watching.

[@dirtygarageguy]

What's the arrangement with the turbo oil feed, you.might be losing pressure if you've changed that. Path of least resistance...

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

I appreciate the idea, but the oil feed hasn’t changed. It’s set up the same way as I’ve done on hundreds of turbo bikes. The balance shaft was the culprit.

[@blackwidowpowersports6037]

What an awesome early catch One more pole and that motor would’ve been trash hope there’s enough left to continue the series

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Definitely got lucky. It’s stupid it even happened, but whatever. I’ll get her back up and running soon.

[@blackwidowpowersports6037]

@@BoostedCyclePerformance I’m working on one with Carrillo rods and pistons running on about 15 pounds of boost

[@blackwidowpowersports6037]

@@mishaisspeed made 250hp on 7psi then the shinko tire blew up on the Dyno and took out the pc5 and did a bunch of damage got it running again and never put it up to 15psi before the client sold it

[@fb2800]

Good video mate, just great. So knowing that the balance shaft / low oil pressure was the culprit of the set back do you still believe you are on track for 500hp with this budget set up? I ask because I too built my own Busa turbo kit on a Gen2 engine and like you like to experiment. I think I’ll follow your ideas only I intend to CNC machine the crown of the stock pistons to lower the CR, maintain the outer squish and stock cam sprockets ie use no spacer. E85 fuel

[@JohnClutch1]

Race bike stuff is gonna race bike. Hopefully the journals are not junk.

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Very true! But this just so happens to of been a freak problem. Just my luck something like this happens with so many eyes on it.

[@coryrichter3621]

I holed three pistons one time and pushed two head gaskets. Thats just what happens. Super G20 Hahn system on a Gen1ļ

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

With all those problems I would really suspect the tune is off.

Best guys around!

Sir how can I contact you I wish to turbo my Hayabusa too

[@GRANDPAGANJA]

hey wood .. im get 2015.. hayabusa.. i need to beat r1...yamaha 2011.. who flashed esc and added race pipes.. i need 2 no what i need to do to mine to make it alot faster...help tricks or tips or what pipe i need to add 2 mine its all stock

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Put a turbo on it.

[@waynebarnes1369]

Something so stupid can cause that. Just one of those things. Could of happened to anyone.

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Very true. It just so happened to happen to me in a very public “budget build”.

[@cocosloan3748]

It blew ? Was I right or was I right 😛

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Couldn’t be further from the truth if you actually watched the video all the way.

[@mikew6135]

What ring gap are you using?

[@latroy85]

How much power do you think a stock motor gen 1 hayabusa can hold with a stage 1 turbo?

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

I’ve made over 400 on a few factory stock gen 2 Busa’s. So at least that much.

[@latroy85]

@@BoostedCyclePerformance what boost level do you think it can hold

[@karlosmuschek]

Fuckin finally got my fix😂😂👌👌 Keep up the vids mate Basically without loss of oil you’d be on your way to 500 if I understand correctly Are you going to rebuild and try again ? I’m watching closely as I’m ready to buy parts for mine

[@BoostedCyclePerformance]

Yep, if it weren’t for losing oil pressure I planned to throw 25lbs of boost at it. At the point where I stopped, the bike was picking up 25hp per pound of boost. So at 25psi, that would be deep in to the 500’s. Of course I’m going to rebuild. I just need the time to do it.

[@karlosmuschek]
