Polaris Turbo

[snochuk]

Got a couple texts from some sledding friends that Polaris is on the verge of releasing a Turbo 850 also.
Any truth or just a sham?

Nice to have options....

Buddy of mine is a friend of Chris Burandt's. He asked him if he should wait till next year and buy a 2020 with rebates or buy whatever Polaris would be releasing in 2021. He told him to take the rebates and get the 2020. Take it how you want to.

I cant see them not doing it now that Doo has one.

I also have heard this from credible folks.

Its like when the first 3" factory track went on.
Now everyone has that.

Good on doo for releasing it.
Let the games begin.

One thing I’ve learned about the snowmobile development industry is if you heard it from “ a reliable source” they aren’t reliable. They are just making chit up to sound cool and they know what they are talking about. while in reality those that know don’t talk about it.

Snow check is coming soon.
See whats up then for sure then for 2021.
Two consumer choices would be great, doo definatly would be in the lead on in service testing.
Maybe there is still hope for 180 hp factory turbo for next winter.

it would also be pretty sweet to not have to resort to riding a doo just so you could have a “factory turbo” although I am in love with my mtntk kit...

If anyone is gonna battle with Doo i believe it will be Polaris. im kind of a Cat guy but i can't bet on my team. I feel if Polaris is working on a turbo it will be released shortly.

 

[Fatdaddy]

Maybe cats 880 will show up with a turbo.

Triple. That way we can snow check spare spark plugs. Lots of time to prepare. Build a reliable parts bag. Cmon guys. The memories.

If they were smart they will relase a sled that doesnt increase boost as elevation increases. Then they will have a winner.

so you have to add Higher octane fuel for no reason? Cant see it. Especially on a mountain sled that generally rides from 5000-1000ft

Or a progressive like Doo but go to 6# boost at 8000'.
Boom! Sales leader......
A little more HP than stock would be awesome and attract even more sales.
Doo has a great sled with the turbo but so far videos show not much gain for the $$$$$ at 5500'.
If Poo pulls the trigger also hope it's at 180HP.

exactly i cant see anyone not having a progressive system, that avoids the need for higher octane fuels.

Unfortunately since the 850T sled has been released, we have not had the conditions that will make that sled shine.

Put a stock 850 in 4 feet of fresh, with that turbo. No comparison is what Im thinking.

This 850T will only get better, exciting times in the Mtn sled segment.
Will polaris release a turbo??? I actually hope they do.

These are my 2 cents tho.

I really think you would like that Doo 850 turbo or non turbo, Randy. Huge improvements over your 2017.

I am on the fence, not sure which way to fall.
I never say never to any brand.
But this is snowcheck year for me.

 

[NoBrakes!]

the stock 850 in the new doo chassis is going to be slick in 2021

the 2021 850T G4 will continue to be the first real mountain snowmobile!

Polaris guys are still changing spark plugs FFS lol
