Mini diesel motorcycle gets cheap turbo from Amazon and reaches 400% higher speed (YouTube @Bummotorsport)
A team from the BOOM channel on YouTube decided to transform a simple mini motorcycle into a real machine using only affordable and cheap parts from Amazon.
They started with a ready-made frame, avoiding the extra cost of removing a functional engine. The basic kit, without an engine, cost $677, and to complete it, they chose a 196cc diesel engine, purchased for just $110. However, the initial performance was disappointing, reaching a top speed of 9.6 km/h.
To drastically improve performance, the team invested in the cheapest turbocharger from Amazon, which cost only $129.99. The goal was to reach 32 km/h, an increase of more than 300%, but the result exceeded all expectations. The small turbo managed to increase the mini motorcycle’s speed by an impressive 400%, proving to be an incredibly efficient and cost-effective solution.

The total cost of the project was $916.99, which is considered low for the transformation made. In addition to the incredible speed increase, the bike also proved to be durable on off-road terrains, reinforcing the excellent cost-benefit ratio of the modification.
