My NYPRO project.
Im putting a turbocharged yamaha 3cyl engine into a 2014 polaris pro rmk 163.
It's not really a nytro engine, it's from a 2005 rs vector. It has carillo rods and wiseco pistons. Since tuning carburetors sucks im going for fuel injection, i have baught nytro throttle bodys and a microsquirt engine management. I'll keep the ignition stock, new ecu only controls fuel and boost.
Plan is to keep changes to the pro rmk chassis to a minimum.

My guess would be that it's not retardedly over priced like some other options...

main reason for using microsquirt is the price, and the ecu is fully waterproof... not many other stand alone ecu's is.
after som reading i found out that mcxpress uses microsquirt for the extra fuelling on their turbo kits for yamaha... if it's good enough for mcx it's probably good enough for me.

Im buying parts for my project on ebay and breaker yards.
I have just got a hold of the top part of the tunnel, but since vin number is stamped into the tunnel side plates breaker yards in scandinavia is not allowed to sell them.

So...
I have done som mailing with Tj Patrick at Patric custom carbon fiber.
and he's going to make the sideplates for the tunnel from carbon fiber.
haven't seen any other pro rmk with carbon tunnel sides.

Not sure what kinda boost your planning but got a feeling the torque of the 4 stroke Yammi is gonna turn that chassis into a pretzel

took the polaris drive shaft in my lathe and removed the spline so the yamaha secondary clutch would enter the driveshaft.
i'm thinking about cutting the yamaha driveshaft and the polaris driveshaft, make threads on them and screw the together.
probably easier to weld the two axle parts together, but then the axel may bend during welding...

test fitted the Powderlites nytro intercoooler today, and it fits without any mods.
im also on the way to fab a battery mount behind the seat.
plan is to place turbo on the right side of the engine a litte higher than the boondocker turbo kits for pro rmk.
as you can see buiding a header is going to be a challenge. the header and mapping of ecu is going to be done by SHS Performance

Today's NYPRO time went into modifying steering column and steering rod.
It now clears over the intercooler. steering is silky smooth with no notchy spots.
It's just tacked together, i'll do the rest of the welding on the steering tomorrow.

I got inspired by Braap wraps red-black take off time wrap.
So I contacted Skinz Protective Gear and ordered Skinz NXT LVL front and rear bumpers, Skinz Airframe running boards and Skinz NXT LVL Dan Adams handlebars ..
Skinz are powdercoating these parts for me in custom colors, left side black and right side black bright red.

I have paint booth in my workshop so ALL the sled parts inc tunnel, skid, suspension and bulkhead are going to be painted black left side and right side bright red.


TNX Skinz Protective Gear for excellent service!!!

have you got the microsquirt running yet? is it a full standalone computer system or do you still have to use the nytro computer and harnesses?

I have done anything regarding the engine managment. My tuner wants me to go for a Link ecu, Microsquirt dont support sequensial fuelling.
Im working on the front engine mounts at the time.
