To answer your follow-up question:
I don't consider the ability to run my bike in Death Valley on a dyno from 1pm to 4pm at full throttle without the engine overheating a necessity.

You are only adding 30 hp with a turbo. The 250 Ninja will handle and stop fine with the extra speed .
The track at Maxton is 1 mile of acceleration. I stop with no brakes in less than 1/2mile from 120 no problem . I see turbo bikes blowing coolant in that distance. The track in Maine is 1.5 miles long Bonniville is 5 miles wide open. It is not about over heating .it is about maintaining consistant head temp to prevent detonation..
