Glad to see you finally got them. those things look sweet, can you say SCORE!!!!
-

thanks to bdi i found the piar on ebay they are 700.00 to 1095.00 apiece depending on the series i got these for 280.00 plus 11.00 shipping for the pair. i am building the coolest intake that uses o ring seal fom carb to intanke with no hose clamp it bolts on,, read on vps web site about q16 fuel
-
i am like the old pictures where the people had a sign californi or bust ...but for me it says 100 horse power or bust
-
i checked out the psi website and looked at their info on the carbs. those look SUPER simple and easy to tune and work on. stewart, it looks as if you got a screamin' deal there. that bdi guy isn't half bad. let us know how you like the performance and ease of use. i may keep an eye out for one if they work out for you. more fun less fuss. i'm all about user friendly things on my toys.

what generation carbs are those. bruce had some updates for some of them. i hope those are not gen 1 or 2 or 3. i would check before going to the dyno. Or you might need some tums and tylenol. there a good carb if you don't have needle tuning issues. bruce is a great guy. my land was 4 mile away from his r&d building. a cool and a culm day here a 1800c 3 cylinder 2 smoke on the dyno making a 380 hp pull, cool. bolt on one of this cylinder and pull another 20hp out of your 500 hundy.

genartion 3 carb... just up dated

I don't have the want to go any faster than my K5 will go in mostly stock trim. It's threads like this and the people in this thread that made me want to keep KXRiders.com up and running. I don't go much over 70mph on the dunes and dirt. But I still like to look at the pictures and cool stuff you guys are doing. It doesn't hurt to dream right?
-
stewart whats the cost of the q16? i just looked at VPs web site sound like some bad ace fuel and they made it sound expensive.
iv always wondered about them carbs hows the tuning are they easier to tune?

what are you thinking you will see on the dyno for hp with these carbs. When do you think you will see 90 hp at the rear wheel.

only the wheel of doom [thats what we call the dyno] can tell when we can make 90 rear wheel hp.. but iwill test fuel change to q16 on current carb setup until optimized then switch to 46 psi to find out true gian of each componet

the needle jet tube has to be changed to work with a 2 smoke.

stewart, have you had a chance to test these PSI carbs out? no news makes me wonder if maybe they are a waste of time and money.

Only a Jr. Member so have not received my ring yet, but while I was at Bike Week (wearing my Cape), I did get a chance to see the Carbs, I too am very curious of the TESTING of them (Stewart?). If looks alone performed, I would surely have these on mine :-D
-
Now that there is talk of a bilit intake on another post. It has re-kindled my interest in this carb... I have been watching ebay CLOSE for a pair. I figure if im going to bother, Id pick one up for my k5 and my KTM 640 lc4.. But since I havnt heard any feedback from "real" people, Im still out on it for this fact... Anyone can make more flow and get HP numbers. Its the low end and midrange I worry about...
As stated before, if looks performed......
