I have one coming. Red mtx demoed one all last weekend. What a rush makes a good running 850 ski doo look like a 500 up hill.

Kinda why I ordered a Late Build so I didn't have to stare at it and get impatient. Maybe there will be an update that gets done aswell on my
Late build if any are required.

I see its for sale already on kijiji.... going a different direction ?

Really long story. I will be on the exact same sled. The early release won't come with the 3yr warranty so I need to swap with another sled. I just thought I'd help my dealer by selling it too. Will be picking up my snow check in two weeks regardless.

Exciting to see the upgrades coming for the Sidewinders, looks like MCXPRESS coming out with a stage 3 kit with a bigger turbo/intercooler to run some big ponies. This will be a rockin mountain sled with 270+ hp. It use to cost us a pile of $ to do full build yami's. The Sidewinder chassis comes with alot more great components. Sounds like this engine should be capable of running a bunch more horsepower without engine mods, crappy shims etc. Would be great to see a 174 3" in future models. Should be an interesting year!

The MCX stage 2 & 3 kits are way too much monies and upgrading to 19T etc... the SW with an EVO +58 hp Tune, CR pipe, CR CIA and some clutching it's gonna be fun. This will be as equal or better than building a 270 nytro with 174 with all cr goodies... mine is going to be very simple. Love MCX product but the technology competition is farther ahead.

Why did you need the EVO BOV for the Stage 4?

So I have been following multiple Sidewinder Pages on Facebook as well as TY-4stroke, Snowest, and here. And from what I’ve read and gathered the stock BOV leaks after a certain PSI 9-11psi range. The stage 4 will be at 14.8ish Psi at elevation. So after talking to Kyle Fritz @ EVO and Gene @ All Go Customs we got 2 on order to demo/try out for EVO.
