The TRASK TM-7600-PO Tornado Turbo Performance Kit is a highly anticipated release that is set to debut in March 2023. This kit is exclusively available through Drag Specialties dealers and is designed for 2017+ Harley-Davidson M8 models with 107", 114" or 117" M8 motors. The kit includes a polished stainless steel compressor and turbine housing with Garrett internals, a stainless steel pipe kit that is mandrel bent and tig welded, and includes a wastegate. Additionally, the kit features a brushed stainless/black exhaust with race-inspired stainless steel heat shields, and a Trask plenum with an integrated blow-off valve.
One of the most significant benefits of this kit is the significant power gains it provides. The TRASK Tornado Turbo Performance Kit is designed to bolt on 40-50% more power to stock 107", 114" or 117" M8 motors, providing a significant boost in performance and power. The kit is designed to make peak horsepower and torque right where you need it, between 3,000 and 4,000 RPM. With the right application, the kit is capable of making 120-300 horsepower to the rear wheel (depending on engine size, fuel quality, Stage 1 or Stage 2 kit, & application).
The installation of the kit is straightforward and is designed to be completed by trained technicians in 8-10 hours. The kit includes all necessary components, including larger injectors, spark plugs, boost gauge with mount, oil feed & drain lines with custom cam cover, Thundermax tune files, and all necessary hardware and gaskets. It is important to note that final tuning is highly recommended, especially if additional upgrades have been done. Additionally, the kit requires the use of a Thundermax ECM and does not fit on Twin Cooled models.
In terms of maintenance, the kit requires regular oil changes with a quality synthetic oil. The oil should be changed at 1500-2000 miles and avoid using oils with coloring. It is also important to note that the TRASK Tornado Turbo Performance Kit is not legal for sale or use in California on any pollution controlled motor vehicles.
Overall, the TRASK Tornado Turbo Performance Kit is a powerful and reliable upgrade for Harley-Davidson motorcycles that provides significant power gains while maintaining the reliability and durability of the stock engine. With its easy installation and straightforward maintenance, it is an excellent choice for those looking to boost the performance of their Harley-Davidson motorcycle.
