Hey guys,
So this summer I have finally pulled the trigger on building a boosted sled. I have read a lot of posts and rode a few pro turbos. I'm basically wanting some input from guys who have had boosted sleds on the snow and want to know things they like or did not like on their set up.
So to begin my build I wanted a different sled since the 2012 assault I currently ride is a little rough around the edges and would need more goodies than its worth. I picked up a 2011 163 pro rmk 800 with a Slp stage 3 kit (removed and already sold), k mod suspension, camo extreme track and some 2013 running boards. Sled started and ran fine but with 1900 miles 104 hours I knew it needed some pistons and reeds at the least. I currently have the mtnk fix kit on the 12 assault with about 25 hours on kit, 116 hours on sled (works awesome and would recommend to everyone). I originally was going to swap motors but I figured if I'm going to do a build I want it to be the BEST. I tore the 2011 rmk down and realized the motor that ran and started good was not good at all. Cylinder was scored on the pto side though the nickelsil, piston was scored and the brass gear that runs the water and oil pump had a tooth missing, good thing the sled was cheap. I sent all the worn parts out and they are finally starting to show up. So this is what I'm going to build.
2011 pro rmk 163
new bearings, new center gear, rebalanced and weld pins on the crank done by Indy Dan.
mtnk fix kit with .015 tho ring gap.
PAR head with 12 to 1 turbo domes.
slp exhaust valves spring
millenium plating cylinder.
new polaris reeds.
kmod suspension with 163 ice age rails.
stock walker evans shocks sent down to hotzs to get revalved and piggy backs put on.
163 camo extreme 2.5 track with stock drives which might get changed to the avid drivers.
Boost it HO water to air intercooled turbo.
chain drive with factory gears.
factor handle bars with a 2 inch riser.
2013 running boards.
My Dad's custom CNC cut tunnel stiffeners/bumper (running up to the foot well since I enjoy jumping off cliffs).
different spring not ordered yet but will be either zbros or raptor.
So guys what am I missing in the build?
If the wife asks it cost 20 bucks........
thanks in advance for your input.
