anyone have ride the axys base kit at 0-3000 fT ??
who ride Boondocker base kit at sea level
- Thread starter el king cat 900
- Start date
I have 200 miles on mine, and I'm at about 900'. Run straight 91 non oxy with no issues
4.5 5lbs boost
You guys running them at low elevation what are your running for clutching?? I am at 1,500' at home here, just got the Sidekick put together last night and took it for a rip. It over revs real fast! My kit came with the same 68 gram polaris weights I run at this elevation stock and boondockers primary spring. Do they have a different setup for low elevation I would think with only 68s with much boost at all it would over rev which it is
Wow this thing is sooo snappy and clean running though. Could not believe how crisp and responsive it was for a turbo

I'm running the 68's with their primary spring at 900' and sled hits 8400 rpm
Huh well that's not good then I wonder if my boost reference or acuator isn't working or set right and creating too much boost?
Still can't believe 68s would be enough for this elevation since the book actually calls for 70's this low at stock power. I am surprised the spring would make that much difference

Im running 10-70 weights with the boondocker primary spring, 54/40 full cut helix with a black/purple secondary spring at 8500-8550 rpm my elevation is 1600ft runs perfect!
Talked to BD today they said if I'm on hard pack (which I am) that I'm not gonna load the track enough with those weights. Also said I need to get a tank or two of fuel through it before the Actuator spring gets broke in and boost isn't spiking too much
Rode it some more today if I eased into throttle a bit and got some speed up could get it to run full throttle a bit but would be running 8800 then it would hit what must be a soft limiter and just kinda cut ya back a bit but not throw a code

The kit boondocker supplies should be sufficient, they claim you put their weights and spring in and good, however they do suggest a different spring above 9-10k feet from what I gathered. Might take some minor tweaks to cure overrev but nothing you can't do while your out on the sled

Bd side kick on 2018 axys pro rmk
Hello I'm new to This web site .. just wondering about the sidekick turbo at sea level on a 2018 prormk .I contacted bd and was told that it won't work at sea level .. that I would run out of injector duty cycle .. has anybody had this issue happen to them and is there a cure for that.. I've read on this forum that guys are having very little issues at sea level on pump gas besides clutching..

You need the sidekick switch from what i was told from boondocker to run at low elevation. Thats suppose to allow you to run a different map and comes with secondary injectors for low elevation.
Your riding at 900 ft elev. (about 14.2psia at 28˚F)
Thats like 7.2 - 8 lbs boost at 7000'
No intercooler?
What kind of air temps?
No engine mods (low comp head etc)??

Silber may be a better option for low elevation riding, he is from MN and has his kits tuned to work at low and high elevation without changing anything other then clutching.
It also depends on who you talk to at BD it seems like. My friend bought a 16 AXYS with the BD kit with optional external wastegate & was having issues. Called BD & they said he was stupid for trying make the kit work at sea level. Need to run the optional wastegate like he had but also digital timing retard key & low compression head. Then they said still might not work. Another friend just bought a BD powered AXYS & was told just need to run the digital timing retard key.
agree with this. there are many people here in the upper midwest running silber kits, 500 - 1500 feet. i spoke to silber at length about this. you need to run at 3lbs of boost and some AV.

I ran 5 to 7lbs here in mn with only 3 gallons of 110. 3lbs was like the sled was still stock.
