That's okay, Sparky.  The guy is all gone now.  Thanks to Peter Jack for tipping me off to the spambot.

You're OK Sparky. The reply directly above yours was a spambot that had gone undetected for a while. You can keep marching in the same direction. :-D :-D :-D

Since the oiling system question has come up on this thread; I will post our questions here, to try to keep this all together.

Because we have the Rotax Eng with roller brgs. I have been advised we will have to use a stand alone oiling system.  Any suggestions on a pump that has some lift capability to pressure rise the turbo. We am guessing we need about 25 Psi through 1/8" ID

I have decided to go with RB Racing---they are B'Villers and have a long track record with bikes and turbos .

We have our single cyl Rotax 490 project going on under builds

Thanks again guy for this forum--I reread the subject---saved me from putting my O2 sensor in the wrong place. It is now just in front of the Turbo

Sparky,

Only pay RB with a credit card as they have a worldwide history of not sending off orders that were prepaid from around the world, ask Ian King from kingracing in merry old England, last I heard he was not to merry.. :evil:  I once was a local company neighbor yo them and asked about a turbo system for a GSXR1100 and was told to send 5K to start and I would be advised of the time needed and what the additional cost would be after I send my 5K deposit.. :roll:
