Going lay an EPIC SPANKING on the Doo Laiders out there........Just Saying.......
The exhaust is 16lbs, turbo is is 25lbs. THe removal of the stock intake and then adding the charge tubes and charge box is almost a wash. Its 9lb gain. The stock 9R 165 2.75 is 429lbs, So 438lbs with the turbo kit. The Boost in the same track length is 448lbs.Did you happen to weigh the kit vs the parts you removed?
All good Questions:Very nice, I fallowed this a bit, very cool.
Got a couple questions.
So I have a 9R here, love the throttle response of this sled, better than any 850 23 models I have ridden to date.
But I find the overall power to be short being accustomed to running 200-260+ more then 20yrs.
So #1 question, how are you finding the throttle response compared to original.
1-being poor and 10 being no change and as good.
#2 question, being more of a guess what HP you're expecting.
I realize the ch!t snow doesn't show anything, your video posted basically shows it runs and sound good but
it won't be till its in deep heavy pow its true colors will or will not show.
Food for thought for myself, should or or shouldn't I spend that extra.
Thanks for a response.
The turbo kit comes with the flash licence, cables, clutching, (im running a different set up tho) and everything needed to run as it should. I would recommend the turbo blanket for the turbo and the wastegate as its close to the coolant bottle and will most likely melt.So $4850 is everything you need for the turbo upgrade. They are readily available or a wait time for next season being so late in the season now?
Yes. it requires 100% Av for low elevation at 5psi, 50/50 over 6000'.I suspect this setup will require mix and not just pump 91

7lbs requires 100% for 6000'
Well well well… you finally brought a Polaris.. you’re gunna love it! You better get a turbo on it cause you know my 14’ Pro Boondocker will kick your ass without it!!!!Very nice, I fallowed this a bit, very cool.

My 13 Mtntk pro is one of the strongest sleds in our group running Bennys clutching and gearing. The 9r turbo will kill our old iron. The bottom end is crazy responsive. Proof will be in the deep snow. But throttle response down low was very impressive.Well well well… you finally brought a Polaris.. you’re gunna love it!

Same boat. Snowchecked a catalyst thinking just a ride a stocker, today I’m searching for 9r’s. lol old habits are hard to kick.Well guys, the 9R is not a replacement for the Winder, its a complementary sled for these new conditions that we are experiencing and likely the future norm.
The two are not comparable, both dominate their own intended use.
I promised my self after the Nytro and nearly 2 decades of mixing I would never build another sled needing mixed fuels, "been there done that on too many sleds" and here I 'am again looking. Not sure if I will, that is my biggest issue right now, do I go down that rabbit hole again.
Exactly true, I guess a stock turbo allows for non mixing LOL.Same boat. Snowchecked a catalyst thinking just a ride a stocker, today I’m searching for 9r’s. lol old habits are hard to kick.
Not derail Ben's thread anymore but is anyone building a good pipe and flash for the 9r yet? I bet someone like Linderman could wake it up a bit more for you.Exactly true, I guess a stock turbo allows for non mixing LOL.
I had the 9R and the Winder out on the same rides for two days the weekend I got hurt and honestly, I love the 9r but so the Winder, very very different, one not better then the other. The poison of the day will be dictated by conditions. (what the wife wants to ride too LOL)
The handling and ease of the 9r makes it feel more like a kids toy, the snappy responsive throttle is beautiful but the power kinda fits its toyish feel, thus why I'm considering the turbo upgrade.
The Winder is not for everyone, it's a serious sled no toyish feel there, it crushes the 9r for power in that respect and has decent handling but no match for the 9r in that department.
In low snow conditions like we're experiencing the Winder SUCK's, the 9r is "Freekin Fun"... till you pull your hamstring LOL.
What to do, what to do?
Have already tested a tune and clutching on the 9R. Pretty decent improvement for the mid range and top end.Not derail Ben's thread anymore but is anyone building a good pipe and flash for the 9r yet? I bet someone like Linderman could wake it up a bit more for you.
