Hey guys, my sled is finished and thought I would post a couple pic's. Just installed a Turboboyz-Turbo Performance package last week. It is super clean, and a factory finished looking install. It is set up for 10lbs boost and C12 fuel.
A BIG thankyou to Bryce, Josh, and Cody at Turbo Performance, for their knowledge and professionalism. They gave me 3 days of tutoring at their shop,, answering every possible question I could think of. Thanks guy's for everything!!! I will keep you up to date. LET IT SNOW!!!!!!! :cheer2:

What elevation do you ride at??? C12 for 10lbs boost seems like a waste. Either that or your turbo system isnt that efficient. Im no expert or anything but I know guys that run 10lbs on av gas. You should be able to run upwards of 16lbs on C12

looks really clean. What "honestly" can a guy exspect to add for weight with this kit, and $. Thanks!

Dan

the cost is $4950. I will give the best estimate on weight. The turbo,and small oil tank are about the only additions for weight. They weigh about 10to 15 lbs, just an estimate? Then you subtract, no can, no factory air box, no upper air box, the huge assembly below the headlights is a 6lb deduction alone! The end result is pretty close to a wash, I would estimate a net gain of maybe 5 lbs. With the horsepower gain and doubleing your track speed, you will be hanging on soo tight you won't have time to try and feel any weight gain! ha! I am installing Alternative Impact a-arms, reducing another 6 lbs on the front for a zero weight gain.

I did not take 20 thous. out of my head, and will be running 10 to 12 lbs of boost everywhere from 5000 to 9000 ft. Avgas is a standard, unleaded 100/130 octane fuel. You can run higher boost on avgas. C12 is only 112 octane, perfect for 10-15 lbs of boost. It is an excellent fuel. We have run it for years in high performance engines in many applications. I prefer C12 over avgas for several reasons: C12 is a LOWER octane than avgas, C12 is leaded, avgas is not, and C12 has lubricating additives specifically for high performance and high RPM motor applications, avgas is an extremely dry fuel with zero lubrication additives and is designed for aircraft engines running at 3200 RPM. Our clutches don't even engage until nearly 5000 RPM. My turbo set up is very efficient, I am simply running C12 for the best quality fuel I can run, and the peace of mind.

What Clutch system are you running?

I am running 415 ramps, yellow/almond team primary spring, team tungston heavy weight pin kit. Secondary is a Team Tied, with the red/black spring, and a straight cut 65 degree helix.

Or you could just run straight jet fuel...lighter than Avgas...lighter than air...right?:D

Correct me, but isn't straight Jet A carry the same characteristics of diesel, just enhanced for above the clouds elevations?

would love to see yours runs mnt-doo, we had a dealer in leftbrige run theirs ast year, but they had problems to say the least, and not much support from the turbo boys they said, had a real nighmare on clutching, straight shoots were easy, but tree riding was another story

we ride hungry horse, and graves creek all the time, so i hopp you get her running sweet and we can see it perform, i might want to do the same...

i always buy the c12 in kalispell from the pumps, and the price is not bad, compared to cdn

Jet A is similar to kerosene. Military uses JP5 and JP8. Can't remember one is a navy fuel, the other branches use the other.

All trucks and Humvee's run on the same fuel as the planes and rotocraft. Simplfies supply lines.

If cost isn't and issue and you have a way to transport the fuel you need, C12 and the other fuels avalible are the way to go. Can guarantee reliable operation and not need to stock pistons and cylinders in the trailer:face-icon-small-dis Broken down sucks when your 250 miles from home and your buddies are riding the good stuff while your riding a rope back to the snow park.

C12 is a LOWER octane than avgas.

no its not it is 101.5 max, its been tested here http://www.ty4stroke.com/viewtopic.php?t=15711&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=30

C12 is leaded, avgas is not, and C12 has lubricating additives specifically for high performance and high RPM motor applications.

100LL =100 Low Lead, Which actually has more than double the lead of standard race gas, look at the buildup of it on the tops of your pistons at the end of the year! Its just low in the standards that it used to be in the aircraft industry.

avgas is an extremely dry fuel with zero lubrication additives and is designed for aircraft engines running at 3200 RPM. Our clutches don't even engage until nearly 5000 RPM. My turbo set up is very efficient, I am simply running C12 for the best quality fuel I can run, and the peace of mind.

Lead is a lubricant, although you should mix about 100/1 premix with it which you should be doing anyway in a two stroke turbo to make up for the extra gas you are running through your engine without changing the oil curve.

My supercharged xp engages at 3000, I dont miss those turbo days, or the laaaagggg that went with it!

happy sledding!
