VanAmburg Ent has an XP tunnel. Pic is from a dudes sled on SW. Liz at VE did'nt have any completed pics of an XP. VE is approx 3-4 weeks behind on custom tunnels built to spec at this time.

I too have a VE tunnel and to this day I like the tunnel. The only problem is if you get stuck and dig a trench it is hard to pull out. Reason and the best way I can explain it is the tunnel sits very high and for a starting point is good but when the track is lifted the rear bumper is almost mid chest. Just my opinion.

Another wise guy! LOL
You have a hard time spelling? grade 3?
Please give us a list of the names of people who are not happy with there motors and tunnels. I always give out phone numbers of clients for people who are interested in talking with someone who has our products. Maybe someone they can ride with.
We perfer to do tunnels kits over the summer, once August comes around were 3 months booked, those that insist on getting one in the fall well we have alot on the go so it takes some time, we have to do first come first serve especially those with deposits on motors and chassis, last season testing with Jaws on our motors and pipes in august and sept backed us up a bit but brings the best for clients. Thats what counts, customers knowing what there getting.
You don't have our stuff so how would you know. With the trash talking you do I wouldn't sell to you. The truth you know nothing about, just another smack talker, won't get you very far in this world and its not going to slow down biz were still busy.
We only install tunnels ourselfs so there installed perfect and running out the door. Were not a mass production shop its custom and we want the best for our clients.

Thanks Ted,

I didn't realize that Terra Alps wouldn't sell you a tunnel unless they mounted it before. I always thought there tunnels were sick:cool: That would be pretty expensive you would think by the time you have to drive back end forth for your sled ?????? hours, pay him for labour and buy tunnel. Makes me think that doing a carbon tunnel and bulk head is not that ridiculous. Ted you mine giving us a rough idea what a tunnel would cost done out of the shop. I was thinking about doing one on my RT over the summer.
thx

sounds like a sales man.the cost of a bulid should be more than $3000.
