turbo cooling system lol
being that the turbo is mounted so high cooling was becoming an issue, so it has a 75% total capacity bike radiator, 10L/min booster pump to keep on top of things does a bloody good job of cooling the core

Want to be alittle be careful fitted spark plugs like that, Know that on some bikes the iridium plugs that give a higher intensity of spark can cause running issues as you have to advance the timing slightly
