Hi all, sorry if posting this in the wrong spot. Yesterday I took my first ride on my '16 Axys with a new MTNTK turbo installed. Ran really good, no bogs or flat spots, very little turbo lag, and best of all, absolutely ZERO det issues that plagued my '15 Pro that had another brand of turbo installed on it.
My problem: it is fairly hard to start. After the sled sat in my garage for 1 week (at 50*) it took 10-12 pulls to start. After sled is warmed up to 100*, then shut down for a few minutes, it only takes one pull to start. However, if it sits for 10-15 minutes (and/or engine temp drops below 100*), it will take up to 5 pulls, varying throttle positions, in order to get it started again. Is this normal? My arm is getting tired! I was wondering if this was because of the relocated injectors, but Nate from MTNTK said it is just a common issue with the Axys even when they are left stock (?).
I bought the sled used, it has 350 miles on it, and did not ride it before I installed the turbo (no, not a good idea); so very possible it had starting issues already. It does have a 2 year warranty, but that may be worthless now because of the added turbo LOL.
Let me know how yours are doing. Thanks.
Also, what weights and psi boost you running at around 5,000'? I have 72 gram Polaris weights installed and even with wastegate turned down all the way (no boost gauge so not sure boost levels) it is still revving almost 8500 rpm. Thinking about 74 grams so I have the option of turning the boost up
Again, thanks ahead of time for your replies
