I would like to give a big shout out to Silber turbos for letting us borrow the sled and put some miles on it. sled only has around 180 miles on in the video so she is still in the middle of breakin, so its only gonna get better. straight 91 at 7# of boost, not a single det code all day, and we rode it hard. ~9000 feet in cooke city.

This sled is an absolute blast to ride, it runs so damn smooth all the time, I was always looking for lines to push the sled into and never wondering if it was going to faulter on me. Spent a lot of time lost in the trees loving life.:face-icon-small-coo

here you go!

I would like to know how they pull off pump gas at 7 psi. I always thought the words "pump gas" and "Etec" were not allowed in the same sentence.......:face-icon-small-dis

Yes, the Turbo XM is sweet, I rode my friends Aerocharger XM at 10# boost 50/50 race-pump gas and it's awsome.

pulling intake air from the stock plenum under the hood and the dual injectors in the intae help keep charge temps low and the vaporizing gas help as well. this with proper tuning results in stable cool charge going to the motor, allowing you to run some good boost on pump.

I got to spend about the entire month of april ripping the sled in video as well as doing some R&D with clutching and turbo sizing. As far as a complete package of sled/power/functionality, the turbo XM is amazing. smooth consistent power, easy to ride chassis, hard to say no to how they come together.

I got to ride in some crusty crap, wet pow and some deep mid winter style fluff all within a few weeks this spring. The thing ran so consistently in all conditions I was very impressed. From the spinning around on the crusty stuff to hood/intake caked in wet pow the sled ran the same.
