Apologies for duplication - I'm not going to wade through seven pages.

A turbo can be a reasonable solution if a burst of power is needed, but they sure should switch to premium gas to avoid compromising normal performance. For steady use, they are likely to overheat things and ruin longevity.
If you want freeway speeds on a scooter, use streamlining, not power.
