Default Forced Induction - EFI prpblems?

This may have been aired before, but is there a problem with installing a Magnacharger or similar onto a new 96" engine complete with the EFI? Most bikes I've seen have only been fitted with carburettors.

Anyone have any experience with blown motors?

Any thoughts?

You might have a problem with tuning the EFI with a added atmosphere unless the Mag Charger comes with a tuning device.

I would thing a SERT would be able to do the job. and It should run better than a carbed bike when tuned!

it is recomended my may EFI tuners to run your injectors at 80 to 85% duty cycle, basicly im saying you may require slighly larger injectors if your setup wants it.
