ULTIMATE PRO-PEX!

[jskattum606]

My life would be complete if i had a shop with tools and knowledge to build a monster mountain sled. Looks exciting!

It is a lot of fun! I get a lot of satisfaction out of building them as well as riding them afterwards. I looked long and hard at just buying a new model this year but after looking all of the big brands over I just felt nothing was up to par. Figured id build one that covered all of the weak spots of the other brands. Hopefully im going the right direction!

Sweet build. You aren't far away, give me a shout if you wanna come ride on the west end of the state. The four banger motors can't be beat. A few of us around here are still running them and we can still manage to make jaws drop when we meet up with other riders. Mines got around 4500 miles on it and still runs like new. 300hp and a 174x3 is a helluva combo.

Almost forgot...why does your stator cover have warts on it???

Hmm. No idea. They're cast in. Are they not all like that?

 

[sledfvr]

Don't think so. Did that motor have a BD turbo that caught fire?

haha nope!
Just took a look at them last night. They are definitely cast in from the factory

 

[sledfvr]

Funny, never noticed it on mine. Sorry to get off track here...anyway keep up the good work.

Any updates ?

 

[Wheel House Motorsports]

Any updates ?

I made him stop and finish his dirtbike projects, I was getting sick of riding alone!!!

Got a few small details finished up the other day so he can wrap up some major tasks like the header and turbo system.

 

[jskattum606]

back at it tonight!
got my turbo mounted for good. It turned out about an inch lower than i had it before



Also got my fuel controler. has an external 3 Bar map sensor that will help the fueling compensate for boost and tempature.

 

[jskattum606]

tacked up my air box and charge tube. Ill be running less than 10LBS for now so no intercooler. If i find myself going over 8 ill look into charge air cooling

Man I can't wait to see how this turns out.
I'd REALLY like to see it in person!!!!

You know the questions of weight will be a main topic of conversation.

Are you able to weigh what you have at this point?

just a question, why the nytro mtr? not a 4stroke guy, but I thought the apex mtr is the "king"! is it a weight thing
