Default 883 Turbo

Anyone attempted to run a turbo on a rubber mount 883? If so what all did you upgrade?

If you use Advanced Search for threads on turbos in this section you will find just 7, so it doesn't look like a popular thing to do.

Are you looking at getting a turbo for the extra power, the look of it or you just like turbos?
