So right now i am dealing with a guy on a 2017 summit 850 with a boondocker side kick pump gas kit with control box.
i know nothing about turbo's on sleds but have always wanted to run one. this kit is non-intercooled. does anyone or has anyone ran this kit that can give me honest feedback on it?
issues? the good? the bad? should i stay away from this kit? what should i look for on the sled before buying it? anything will help really.
ive been on here for years and know this is the place to come for help.
Thanks in advance.

Ask if its a belt eater. (Not all of them are, I'm still on my original belt but not turbo'd). Ask for a compression test (Video if possible if you don't witness yourself). Find out what elevation it is clutched for (weights / ramps). Look for oil leak on the rave valves, and ask what reeds are in it. I'm sure there are other questions to ask and other things to look at.

as far as the actual turbo kits I have heard like most others some work and some don't. Clutching from boondocker is allegedly pretty poor.

The cool thing about owning a turbo sled is that even if you know nothing about turbos your forced to become an expert real quick.
No truer words have been spoken! Haha
