Nice! If you do a 872, your setup will be totally different over a stock engine setup.
Only dialed in xm TSS centre mount on the planet I bet

Just the one for now, or both? 872 with boost would be nice. He's liking where your's is I take it.

you don’t need a big bore with boost. The torque production of the turbo down low will surprise a properly setup BB. But yea we did a swap at the great north for a little and my low boost setup was drastically different. And quote, a turbo makes a big bore feel like a stocker all the time.
how does the big bore work. Theres a improvement over stock. Everyone’s expectations are different. Not sure whom is gonna give you a demo lol

Oler is the guy I would be getting parts from if your in the market for a upgrade, he knows the engine and will have a setup for you already.

I always wonder if the high gearing on turbos is part of the cause of the bogging on turbos.
Now that it's working you will have to keep it forever as you know it so well.

I can't get 67mph either but before my speedo crapped out, I was getting 74kmh+ on a slow speed chew. If the turbo cant get traction and he spins then I can beat him. If he hooks up then Im toast. My secret is traction. I can hook up better than a turbo. In deep snow I have the advantage. Most other conditionsr I'm just another turbo meal.

Damn, I’d like to get y’all to tune my sleds...........
If mine runs, I couldn’t be bothered to open the sides.

What is the mainline adjustable fuel controller? I thought Dave Sebelius was working on his own fuel controller the Aurora DPS or something like that?
I think I saw you Sunday by the cabin before we headed down. We saw your buddies failed attempt, and unconventional descent.
Did you make it to the top after we left?

Redline has an adjustable knob attached to the box allows you to adjust fueling - lean/rich

Also turbo force xm reeds are crucial also
If one sled length is worth 5g to you, you'll love the 872. LMAO

Wouldn’t it be better to upgrade to a nice clean used OEM 850 ?
BB’s are way to much coin for what is gained IMO ?
Turbo market is getting to good and better bang for your dollar . IMO

He is not wrong. It takes some tuning to get the power to the ground on a BB, BB makers don’t spend the necessary time on clutching like they should. In my experience tuning BB engines they vary in power, so generic clutch kits leave alot on the table.
I have confidence in olers setup.
