Hey guys. Been bored lately waiting around for snow and waiting for my turbo kit to show up, so I figured I'd post a build thread for my new ride this year.
I finally called it quits on my arctic cat 800 turbo last year and bought a new pro rmk 800. Fell in love with it instantly. After a few minor changes I figured it would be the best suited sled for me. Well, minor changes turned into a full on turbo project lol. Here's a list of upgrades I've made to it thus far.
-Full turn key kmod skid with raptor shock upgrade
-3" 163 camoplast x3
-avid 7t drivers
-front raptor shocks
-36" alternative impact a arms
-PESidaho quick disconnects for sway arm
-tb racing pipe boards
-RSI risers with 15* RSI bar
-Polaris ultimate front bumper
-fully wrapped tunnel with 3m 1080 carbon fibre vinyl wrap
-custom sled wrap by Spiralus designs
-ratsled rear bumper (wanted to pay tribute to Steve burandt a.k.a ratman, as he sadly passed away this summer in a tragic accident. He was a great man, with a lot of knowledge and skill, he helped me and my riding group out a bunch over the years, RIP Steve!)
I've snow checked a 2015 boondocker turbo kit as well just waiting for it to be shipped. It will have the gtx2863 turbo, water to air intercooler and the new 2015 oiling option (no oil pump/tank)
So far it's turned out great. Here's a couple pics of the before and after.
Had the dealer swap out the red 2014 panels with some black ones they had kicking around
Will be ordering up one of those blowholes to install on the clutch side to keep the belt temps in check, also some sort of extra motor mount/torque stop to keep everything aligned.
Working on some interesting lighting upgrades as well, thanks to mountainhorse for some tips and advice on the electrical system.
Well that's where I'm at right now. Hopefully the turbo shows up soon, my thumb is getting twitchy!
Thanks all!
