LAND SPEED STREET BIKE

Ed Petrozzi, one of our street turbo customers, has a passion for speed. POWERHOUSE built this Super Ultra Turbo Hayabusa - the entire engine done with Carrillo Rods and Wossner pistons, 1/2 " studs, Robinson transmission with heavy duty output shaft, etc. , and the bike tuned up to 24 pounds of boost, which resulted in 454 rwhp and 232 mph at Loring, breaking the previous record on one of his first times out.
