>Testing R&D’s Kawasaki T1 Turbo kit

Since last year R&D’s Kawasaki T1 Turbo kit has been gone through some updates. Bill Chapin has been consistently fine-tuning, updating and evolving the successful package. Multi National champion of Greece, Akis Malouchos tested the latest version of R&D’s Kawasaki T1 Turbo kit. Jetskiworld.gr publishes his review “R&D’s T1 Turbo kit is an incredible substitute of the Kawasaki OEM Supercharger system. It provides superb acceleration from very low rpm and then hits harder from mid to top. There is useful power translated in to thrust through the whole powerband. I have sensed any turbo lug or hesitation when I closed the throttle and came back in to it. The power delivery is not aggressive therefore it does not wear out the rider. The big advantage of this kit is not only the adjustable boost pressure or the selection of low and high boost via a switch but also the great reprogramming set up that R&D has developed for the oem ECU. Therefore, there is no need to buy and expensive aftermarket unit with cost of periodic preprogramming service. The kit can be used with low boost for recreational or rough water conditions and it high boost in order to escape from the pack and be the leader. The test was carried out with a hot weather of 36ο C, with ¾ of a fuel in the tank and regular gasoline of 91octane in Lake Havasu City. Top speed of the Kawasaki Ultra was recorded consistently at 78.5mph which is a very positive and promising result. I am thinking already to get one in order to use it next year in the famous Akropolis Jet Raid Offshore race which is very demanding in terms of reliability, fuel consumption and speed.”

>Will Stand-ups get bigger?

A few years ago a dentist from Arizona asked someone to build an oversize SX-R for him in order to fit a Honda turbo-charged in this hull. At the same time the builder, who was Chris Hagest was working on a new project, a ski which was much larger than the ordinary stand-ups. Last October ProForce was introduced by Hagest and now another hull builder is working on a larger SX-R hull project in order to fit a Kawasaki Ultra engine in it. Meanwhile we have been informed that another aftermarket hull manufacturer worked on a bigger hull too. IJSBA has given the green light to those projects and the skis will be legal for racing. So will those projects make the two pwc manufacturers (Kawasaki and Yamaha) to finally release their four-stroke skis to the market?
