Something doesn't stack up, as Luftmeister didn't introduce their 4-cyl K blower until 1987/88.

Best known for blowing airhead R100's, the K kit was mainly fitted to K1's by wealthy owners who could justify the additional $5,500 cost.
It would give up to 160 BHP out of the box, and 200 BHP with additional LM tweaking of boost pressures.

As with all turbo installs, it was gutless up to 5,000 rpm, and then went mental Cool

Interesting, but not worth anything like the asking price - I would be like to know what the current offer is Wink

$8000 for an '85 K? I think I'll pass- no matter what has been added. It does look like the Luftmeister kits I have seen, though.

I'LL SELL MINE FOR $8K!
