I can't remember whether it was Kathy or not, but someone on this site competes in a postie challenge. Thought they might be interested.   Cheers  Tone

Where would they get a turbo that small?
How would the rest of the drive train stand up to the extra power?
As the owner/rider of a Postie, the thought of going a lot faster and trying to stop with those drum brakes is scary!

Had a look at this last week, it is well put togther and whoever did it had some good ideas.

the Turbo unit itself has come from some small car (according to the wrecker), but the Turbo does not "spool up" properly - so the project has been halted, hence bike is for sale
