Finally gone mine and my sons sleds mostly together for the season. Still got bumpers and boards to put on the alpha. Really happy with the performance of the slydog attack ski. Alpha wrap from octane ink and 18’ wrap from arctic fx. First ride on the alpha Silber turbo will be tomorrow.

I ordered one and they forgot about me again. Haven't called because of bog. Guess I was spoiled because of his 850 kit last year. It is the bomb.
Buddy had an mpi with probably the same thing going on. It sucked. Not acceptable. Will not put it on until fixed. Dealer wanted me to ride his alpha tomorrow. Has the new tune. Christmas is in the way of that but if it is not fixed there is no point. I might just ride it stock and supercharge it next year. I know they work. Just twice as expensive.

My experience with silber in the past has been lots of unfulfilled promises. I got pretty good at pulling their turbo systems off of cat proclimbs in a trailer when they had programmers on them and they continually ran like crap. Run ability has always been an issue. Save your coins and buy a supercharger.

Surprised you had a problem with your MPI doo 850. My guess it was something doo related, I’ve got at least 8 friends with doo MPI 850 turbos and they have all been perfect from day one. I’m getting a new flash today and hope it works better on the bottom end, mid range and top end were great.

For some reason, I thought yours had the new flash in it already. I have another friend that said it went from a bog to fat and blubbery now, but easier to ride with. Still not spot on though. Just what I've heard so far... Mine still has the original map and it sucks.

Don't get me wrong. His mpi was just off engagement until boost comes on but it sucks compared to my 850 silber. I am guessing that is what the alpha is doing. I guess I thought you already had the new flash. Let us know whether it works.

I have a flash from a week ago that was still no where it should be. Just got a new flash yesterday but won’t be able to ride it until Saturday. From what I understand the flash for the 18’ works very well. Since the 19’ ECU tune is different the alpha flash had to be pretty much redone and isn’t as spot o as the 18’ flash. It’ll get there, just needs a little more tweaking.

Fix the high idle fix the low lean condition but now it's pretty fat. Also fix the power valves being chalk and ready on restart so now it's a one pull instead of two. I did have a miss or hesitation between 55 and 6000 also was getting p0117 code halfway through the day. Don't know it it was related but it was at the same time as the flash. Got it to bog but you had to try harder to make it happen

also I was a bit to much race gas as I was 40% and only 6 psi of boost. It does build boost at about 3800 rpm and engagement is 2800
