Default Harley Turbo Charger from HD?

My brother in law has been beefing up his carberated 03 Fatboy and wants to know if Harley offers a turbo charger. He has already punched the engine to a 1550.

Does Harley offer a turbo charger? I have been trying to locate one on their site, and thought while I look I would also ask here given the luck you guys have offered me so far.

Thanks in advance.

HD does not and probably will never offer a turbo or a supercharger for street legal aplications, but they are available from other aftermarket parts manufacturers:

God luck.

Hahn Racecraft used to make a Harley turbo kit.

Good Buddha.

These look pretty cool:
http://www.turboyourharley.com/turboKits.asp
"Our custom turbo system is a draw through system utilizing the 42 mm Mikuni Carb, modified Garrett Turbo internal wastgate, and our new and improved surge canister. These are custom, one off, systems built to order. We have made over 270hp. with this system. Call for one off custom systems. Systems will fit any carbureted EVO (Choppers,Prostreets, etc...).

Call for pricing. "
Damn!!!

He just got off the phone with the mechanic at the dealership that told him about one. Looked it up online...

Somewhat of an eye sore in my opinion. You should be able to get enough power out of a big bore kit and hotter cams, not to mention head work, etc.

I would check out turboyourharley.com
They make a great kit, stand behind their product, and will give you great customer service.
I used them for my turbo on my VROD and it was a very detailed kit. I am planning on installing one onto my crossbones this winter.

Ripsnrtr, I forgot about these guys. They are one of the bad boys when it somes to big power from hd and they have at least 7 different turbo systems for HD. They have set and have helped set many land speed records.

Newly Redesigned Harley Turbo Kits for 2007-2008
We have turbos for small motors and turbos for big motors. We have turbos for stock frames and we have turbos for custom frames. We have center mount turbos and we have left side mount turbos. We have turbos for street and we have turbos for racing. We have turbos for gasoline and we have turbos for methanol. We can run dual fuel strategies with gas and methanol at the same time. We can set the bikes up with two or three or four injectors with injectors rated up to and beyond 1600cc/minute. We have fuels pumps for 250 horsepower. We have fuel pumps for 500 horsepower and we have special pumps for alcohol. We have water injection systems for high output horsepower increases.

http://www.rbracing-rsr.com/index.htm



We have turbos with different primary tube sizes for different displacement motors. We have turbos to fit standard port cylinder heads as well as S&S SA and S&S B2 raised port, four bolt heads.

Changes for 2006 are intercoolers either twice or four times as big depending on the application. All turbos for 2006 are double ceramic bearing. All turbos are capable of way, way, past 200 horsepower. Racing turbos are rated at 600 hp.

All systems use RB Racing's proven RSR Closed Loop Fuel Injection system. Systems are programmed for 2 Bar or 3 Bar operation. All systems use our billet Boost Master Wastegates with pneumatic controls.

We are finishing up on all new instrumentation packages, the most advanced in the industry, to support our turbos. New digital displays. New Boost Gauges. Waterproof, Harley-proof. All to provide vital information.

We can provide Turbo Pods with ORCA engines in custom frames. We also provide Pro Gas systems for big displacement drag racing, speed, and dyno contest engines. We have engineered out seven new systems. One hell of a lot of work.


These guys are friggin' serious!!!
