This is important guys, I have read a lot of bad review about Slow boy racing (formerly Turbo bike research, but the bike stuff went under so they stopped using that name) but figured I would try them out anyways because they were the only ones who make turbo's for 600's... man was that a bad move!! These guys are a complete JOKE! I set up an appointment to drop off my bike, and when I got there, NO ONE even knew I was coming. They installed the turbo, I get home at like 3 AM from trailering it home and wake up at 8 because im all excited to ride. The bike goes to start and then pukes oil out of the exhaust. It wouldn't turn over AT ALL! I brought the bike to Orient Express in NY and they couldn't believe what a mess the turbo looked like. The guys wedged the radiator between the headers and intake tube... WTF?!?! its aluminum! it will melt the first ride I get on the bike!! The oil line going to the turbo is 1.5" and wasn't secured to the bottom of the oil pan, no hose clamp, nothing. The oil line going out was only .25"!!! talk about oil build up in the turbo!?!?! The shop has only gotten this far yet. I can only image what else they will find!! PLEASE DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT USE THESE ASSHOLES! I tried to dispute my charge and now they want to take me to court. I will keep you guys updated on what else is going wrong!
DO NOT USE SLOWBOY RACING!! They are crooks!
