I know right, first post, this guy must be a retard. Bare with me.

Anyone know of any really good reasons that a rx1ton power plant and front mount turbo wont fit into this 900 switchback chassis? I own both sleds, and I like how the iq rides, but I 'like the idea of reliable big power.

enlighten me.

thanks

Do you think it will compromise the handling of the sled completely? the centre of gravity will be raised by a couple inches, I wonder how dramatic an effect it will be? Should I use the yamaha clutch, and just do motor mounts and exhaust and call it a day? Can the polaris chaincase handle 250 hp?

I"ve done it with a 08 800 Dragon chassis with an Apex turbo setup. It's alot lighter and handles better than the yamaha chassis could. Here's pics of the build. Let me know if you have any ?'s. Here's the link to my build http://www.snowestonline.com/forum/showthread.php?t=211712

honestly done the rx swap into a doo chassis, was a lot of fun and ran it for a long time had a LOT of annoying issues dealing with the swap over the life of the sled.

personally, i would just turbo the 900.. they are way fun on boost. very powerful sleds if you put the right parts together.
