Boondocker Side Kick Turbo (2016 kit) Move from 2017 to 2019

[RMK900Tractor]

Helping a friend here,

Wondering, does anybody knows if the Boondocker Side Kick (2016 kit version) can be moved from a 2017 Axys 800 to 2019 or 2020 Axys 800?

Interested in knowing if the control box will work on the newer sled without updating programming?

And yes, I know the best option is to call Boondocker but did not want to bother them if not buying anything.

Anybody have experience with this?

Thank you in advance!

I think it will need reprogramming as the 18-20 800 run at different cooling temp range

Yes, makes sens. I thought Boondockers website mentioned a reprogramming service for a fee?

Does anybody know if they offer a reprogramming service?

Was able to figure out the 16 kit can fit on newer model sleds and control box can be updated.

Another question, anybody aware if Boondockers offers a normal exhaust outlet option to avoid cutting a hole in the tunnel? If not, has anybody tried modifying the exhaust to try this?

I would quit snowmobiling before I bought a Silber kit.

I have a stock hole exhaust dump off of my 2017 sidekick for sale. Message me if you are interested. It was only used for one 350 mile season.
