The lesson awaiting you, as I understand it, is that it's not the engine's top end strength; pistons, rods, etc., that will limit your quest... instead, it's the bottom end that is a grenade.
Here's a quote from the Wiki of another EX-250 website: Quote:

no pain no gain... besides tunning bikes is fun, no matter what happens
but seriously... turbo on 250... why not just get stronger bike.. but not because it originaly have more power, but couse engine is stronger and it will last longer if you put turbo on it... just my opinion... have fun |

It probably could. The chassis, suspension and brakes couldn't keep up though.
I've always thought a KX 250 swap would be cool. It shouldn't be too overly powerful. However, that project will be for when I'm rich and have far too much time on my hands. |

I have put this engine through more than anyone. Racing land speed ,drag racing . Nitrous use with methanol . You name it I have done it . Zero bottom end problems.
