Id be surprised if Skidoo “didn’t” offer a kit to do this. Might not be available now but soon is my guess.

You can not add the "Ski-Doo Shot" system to any 2017 or 2018 sled after the fact. To much integral parts to add that would be way to expensive to do including a whole new ecu. *Hey that rhymed!

"Cost Prohibitive" would be far more accurate than "Can't" because you can add SHOT!

"Can't" is subjective at best. Cost prohibitive would be far more accurate. If the owner has money to burn, who are you to tell him / her they can't / shouldn't based on your spending paradigm?

Expensive is to be determined by the holder of the wallet or purse. FWIW

There are those out there that spend more than double the MSRP just to make a sled "theirs" so spending another 2-3K to add the SHOT system is chump change to some.

You can install a capacitor start on your sled if you have estart and save about 13 lbs. Read the two previous threads "kinda shot" and "estart now capstart" if you want to peruse this further?

Great reason to buy a 2019 snowcheck!

Can't is not correct, have a buddy that put it on a 17.. Dealer installed a kit consisting of bigger magneto, shot Capitol and different ecm, cost him 3 grand, and programming... He now has it and works well

Now what would be real cool if someone or brp would come up with a kit for the 800s, and keep cost minimal, even if it took a little longer to charge up.. I would have two more ordered before day's end

3 grand would have covered and upgrade to an 18 or really close. That is crazy.

I think the most practical thing would be to replace your battery with a good lithium ion battery. Will save you a few pounds. A good battery from AG will be around $300 or $400 which is expensive but you have the advantage of starting on cold starts where you can't with your shot starter.
