Bought a couple 15' 800 pro 155's over the summer to replace a couple of my older sleds I sold. First ride out I noticed they ran pretty hot for a 2-stroke, 130-150 degrees. From my understanding the ECU starts to pull power over 130. Both sleds have just shy of 1500 miles. I bought some RKT pistons from Kelsey at the slc snow show. Figured it would be good to try them and freshen up one sled and see how it compares to the other stock sled. Go figure, next ride out, stock piston takes a dump on one sled. Thank goodness still under warranty. So while it's apart at the dealer I give him the RKT pistons to install and the parts for the $28 thermo bypass.
Had the RKT sled out over the weekend. Never saw temps over 120. My other stock sled was 130-140 degrees, pretty deep powder riding. The RKT sled ran smoother, gained almost 300rpm and had noticeably better throttle response than the stocker. Very happy with the results. Used RKT stuff in the past and always been impressed with the results. Thanks to you snowesters on the $28 bypass info.
