I was on the Trask turbo site the other day, they have some nice stuff. Who knows you may see more of them on this site soon.

im thinkin winter project ive never seen one like to try it
I have been involved in the build of a TK turbo (powderlites) as well as a procharger. Have also been involved in a few 120R engines.
TK I would not do another until more R&D. Prochargers are OK much like a turbo, but with lower grunt.
The 120R... now there is an engine! They dyno over 130HP, and 140ft/lbs of torque. Easy to live with, instant torque. In a FLTRUSE (CVO road glide) it stays with any sport touring bike on the road shy of a ZX14. Other H-D's are fun to toy with, but no real competition. Downside is you are going to have to upgrade suspension and brakes to keep up with the speed this motor will go.
Price?
Installed in a touring or Dyna chassis about 11000. Soft tail, about 13000 (both with taxes) Then you have your old motor to sell. for a low mileage 96" you can expect to get 3500-4500. so for around 7000.00 you have an engine with 130+ HP bike that looks like stock
