Can Brock Make a Gen 3 Suzuki Hayabusa Better?
It has been well known that the Gen3 Hayabusa motorcycles have been slower than their predecessors and why is that? Well as it turns out, its all about emissions controls and what Suzuki had to do to try to make more power and also be able to sell to countries and states with tight emission policies.

Hence more electronics and a rebuild that Suzuki had to go through to accomplish this. If Suzuki just could have built a faster bike like everyone thought they should have we all would have been happier. Instead on the one side they had that intention as a leader of big displacement motorcycles and on the other they had to sell the dam bike. Caught between a rock and a hard place.
So since the Gen3 has come out, custom builders have had huge problems trying to get this Gen3 model to perform the way they wanted, spending countless hours trying to get more power.
Brock has come up with Cams, others have come up with ECU reprograms, but as you can see, with all that work, the net result is 10hp.
That is for an aspirated engine. Add a turbo and because the Gen3 is totally different visavis the ECU and electronics no one has been able to provide a direct ECU only reprogram to accommodate the turbo.
Hence, add the MaxxECU to assist. The only issue is the MaxxECU is $4k and to be honest it is still not heads on the way it should be.
I am sure Brock or others may have more success squeezing some more aspirated power improvements but after everything he did, he gained 10hp. To get a turbo onto the Gen3 it currently requires a MaxxECU and that is upwards of $4k on top of the turbo and not easy to program on the Gen3.
So bottom line, as we suspected all along, the Gen3 is just not there as a big horsepower bike.... at least easily.
So this is where you come back to the best Busa for turbo use and beefed up programming and that is the King of power, the Gen2 Busa. Old school electronics, easy to work with and solid solutions to change. And you have BIG POWER at your fingertips, easy to tap into.
Also lets not forget, the Suzuki Bandit for turbo candidate. Low cost turbo, MaxxECU NOT required and even unlike the Gen1 and Gen2... the engine does NOT have to be pulled to add a shim/spacer to lower the compression. Making the Bandit the lowest cost way to get power.
