I would like to know where the best starting point would be for weights on this sled? edge 800 10 psi? The motor is fresh and the track is huge! what are you all running?

Someone posted before that 6 grams more than you were using without the turbo is about the norm.

I know one guy on here with a 700 turbo poo(can't recall his name) is running 68's. I am starting with 70's in mine to test.

Hows your build coming along? Got mine just about ready to fire. One more good day of work and it should be time for test and tune.

motor just came back, and i am putting it together tomorrow, I finished my new trailing arms and my shocks will be here next week, I am running 17" c2c. my drivers I bought were to big for the shaft :( I guess he measured wrong !! now I have to buy some more and return or sell these ones,, My deadline of the end of the month is not going to happen but I might have the motor running by them and the little things will take a week longer, I need to put some new pics up!

We ran 10-74's and 10-76's with a Cat 170/260 primary spring....still spun 8400. :beer;
Also...we have those and 80G belly busters sitting on the shelf if anyone needs them.

We use 72.5 gram lightning weights on race gas turbo D800's. They work really well under 11psi. The first hole is drilled out to 3/16 and the clutch needs to be reindexed.

Do you just have to change clutch weights or a helix as well? Assuming you have a properly clutched normally aspirated setup. Can I just change weights?

Pretty sure to optimize it you are going to need to start from scratch and pretty much change it all.

Mine was dialed in perfect with the twins. This is a whole different animal. Less on the bottom and way more on top.
