Member Contributer toro1 Posted May 28, 2010 Author Member Contributer Posted May 28, 2010 :fing02: This has just made my day. I knew my European map was off a bit, but this is just silly ridiculous power. I thought Steve had the highest power VFR800 locked up with his 175hp run, but you've topped him with this 183hp monster, Kenneth. Do you guys have any ethanol in your gas over there? We're saddled with 10%, which I think might be reducing the power output. I'm going to post a link to your vid on my site -- very, very nice. Enjoy! Quote
Member Contributer magicman Posted May 28, 2010 Member Contributer Posted May 28, 2010 If only there were another 9hp to be found... Then you would have doubled the stock output! I wonder if those e3 diamond fire plugs work... :fing02: Quote
Member Contributer toro1 Posted May 29, 2010 Author Member Contributer Posted May 29, 2010 If only there were another 9hp to be found... Then you would have doubled the stock output! What's really amazing here is we're only pushing about 10psi (without an intercooler) when in general with these superchargers you need ~15psi to double the power. I'm almost tempted to turn up some bigger crank pulleys and see if we can crack 200whp... Quote

I'm almost tempted to turn up some bigger crank pulleys and see if we can crack 200whp... Would the belt fit if a bigger crank pulley should ever be made? :) :) :) Anyway, i was thinking , when in the future i am going to rebuild the vfr i have laying around, to look into the possibilities of lower rotating weight , cams, other injectors and maybe the "stage 2" with water injection... Anything on the drawing board Dan? ;) We do not have anything added or taken out of our fuel. if you want to buy e85 (bioethanol/fuel mix) i guess one would have to wait some time as it is on its way as far as i know... but i really cant se why i should switch to that... On the dyno i ran shell v-power 99 octane ron, but i fill her with unleaded 95 ron for the most part. No additives of any kind cause there has never been signs of detonation, and no power gain, at least not noticeable. When mentioned, what do you think about this Dan : e3 spark plugs Is this just long life sparkies or could there be something to it? What about the "permagap" ngk (if they where made with the vfr thread size) Any toughts? Quote

Member Contributer Ranger77 Posted July 9, 2010 Member Contributer Posted July 9, 2010 Tried to use the pm system but it wont work on my droid. Will you sell those oil cooler adapters that bolt to the oil pan seperate? How about the water oil cooler? Quote
tireguy Posted August 27, 2011 Posted August 27, 2011 Serious looking stuff. I'm impressed!! Like the switch to the carbon overhead body... weight and space saving reasons I imagine.So what sort of mileage do you get out of the bike on mixed riding over a tank of gas??? Does it add enough weight, and power for that matter, to consider stiffer fork /shockie springs?? The carbon intake hat was designed to work with an intercooler and also to distribute the incoming air as evenly as possible. Whether or not the intercooler makes it to production, it has succeeded in the power producing department and is both lightweight and low-profile. I have been getting nearly 40mpg in normal mixed riding conditions. The only time I noticeably see a drop in mileage is performing flat-out dyno pulls or after a very hard day of sport riding. You should not be able to notice a difference in weight. The supercharger itself weighs only 6lbs, and the rest of the componentry is mainly aluminum. I will weigh the parts taken off the bike and compare them to the weight of the kit parts soon, as I know others have been wondering what the difference truly is. Toro,Another question for you would a PCII work or would you need the III? vince I currently only have a working map for the PCIII. The PCII can work, but I would first need to develop a map for it. Dan, your going to be the "Carroll Shelby" of the VFR's if your not already. After I saw this kit, talked to you on the phone, and reviewed the installation instructions, I eneded up selling my mint 4th gen to get a 5th gen....I had to get a VFR that I could put this kit on. Already started the SC fund. I'll be ready by spring of 2012. Quote

Member Contributer dude Posted August 28, 2011 Member Contributer Posted August 28, 2011 Now that is some awesome power right there :fing02: Now, here is the evidence... Red line = pre charger install. Green line = A&A Perf. european charger map. Blue line = Custom map. I had the dyno recorded, here are my compilation of the goodies 1 Quote
VIFFR Posted June 28, 2013 Posted June 28, 2013 Any word on why these kits are discontinued? I've been thinking about puting a kit on my wish list for in a few years once I get some money behind us in the house. Quote
Member Contributer YoshiHNS Posted June 28, 2013 Member Contributer Posted June 28, 2013 Not enough demand. Only a handful of people bought one. Quote
Member Contributer whitelightning Posted June 28, 2013 Member Contributer Posted June 28, 2013 Ahh, the ultimate farkle!! Quote
Guest sakurama Posted July 7, 2013 Posted July 7, 2013 If anyone who has a supercharged VFR wants to sell, please drop me a note. Gregor Quote
kamaleon Posted October 11, 2013 Posted October 11, 2013 Im in europe, if anyone becomes available here .. Im ur guy.! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk - now Free Quote
WackenSS Posted December 7, 2013 Posted December 7, 2013 Any word on why these kits are discontinued? I've been thinking about puting a kit on my wish list for in a few years once I get some money behind us in the house. Dan had to put his family first :( sad for us, awesome for his family. However, he told me he sold it, so lets hope something comes from it. Anyway, thank you again dan for making my viffer 13 years younger :) Quote
Member Contributer zupatun Posted May 8, 2021 Member Contributer Posted May 8, 2021 Anyone know what color code and name of this orange? Quote
Member Contributer JZH Posted May 9, 2021 Member Contributer Posted May 9, 2021 It's not an OEM paint color, so it's whatever Dan had available, I imagine! Ciao, JZH Quote
Member Contributer Cogswell Posted May 9, 2021 Member Contributer Posted May 9, 2021 Just about everything on that bike was custom - the paint was probably no exception! Those were the days - when those kits were in development. Quote
RustyA Posted May 9, 2021 Posted May 9, 2021 Dan had the bike repainted. To find that shade. You would have to look in a paint book. Quote
SEBSPEED Posted September 23, 2021 Posted September 23, 2021 It's House of Kolor PBC32 Tangelo Orange. Quote

Member Contributer JZH Posted January 22 Member Contributer Posted January 22 Is that a 6th-gen kit, or did Dan change some of the components during the 5th-gen run? Ciao, JZH Quote
Member Contributer vfrcapn Posted January 22 Member Contributer Posted January 22 It is a 6th gen kit. I haven't assessed what parts are going to need to be remade yet but there will be a few. Quote
