    What year did Yamaha switch the Y pipes on the Apex to stainless?

    After a trip along memory lane. 2007 and 2008 - Apex had Ti headers. 2009 came SS headers - RH side 8FP-14610-10-00, LH side 8FP-14620-10-00, it was these i bought. 2010 came a different style SS headers, can be different mounting, don't know what the diffrence are - RH side 8FR-14610-00-00, LH...

    I had an 40th Apex (2008) and it had Ti, year after (2009) Apex got SS so i ordered those when my Ti had cracked.

    Anyone having issues with TD power trail reflash

    TD on their website, and i replied OP that would like to feel 270hp. TD also claim 212hp on stock Sidewinder which is far from what any production sled have showed in any dyno, sadly, it would have been nice if it would be true. Some prototypes had north of 200hp, but production sleds around...

    Anyone having issues with TD power trail reflash

    Have you seen dyno sheet that show 270hp? I for one do not buy from someone that i do not trust, and when someone claim 270hp when no one else is even close to that numbers i start to question that. Several other well known tuners back up their data with dyno numbers, and their findings i can...

    Finaly got my Btx home,M&M-Racing kitt :)

    Sweet ride, bet it runs great. Playing with the idea of starting to tune an Winder, but my Viper is running so unbelievable good so i have a hard time to wrap my head around the thought of separating from it. Maybe i contact you to check some thoughts i have. Sent from my Sanwa M12

    How much power think there is to make with simple mods?

    Havn't found the fault on your sled over internet has nothing to do with not knowing his stuff. I know some about this stuff also since i've been driving Turbo sleds since autumn 2006, modded them and tuned them to perfection, mainly @ sea level, and i have been reading your thread and have no...

    How much power think there is to make with simple mods?

    Which way is that funny? Did you do the install your self? Know lots of people with MCX 190 kits with zero problems. Maybe let a knowledge guy/girl take a look @ it, i hope you asked the dealer that sold the kit to you.

    Lol, couldn't agree with you more.

    How much power think there is to make with simple mods?

    He sure does. He helped me to get 280hp @ as low boost as 0.92bar / 192kpa / 13.3 psi in my Viper. Powerplant in Sidewinder will be good, better then Nytro engine with Dodge ECU, it's designed with boost in mind, have sensors old engine lacks, so ignition maps will work together with boost so...

    MCX 190 Ulmer Clutch Kit Overrev

    It's a bit more, and it's distributed differently on the weight, but it it's hitting rev limiter hard it's not going to be sufficient. How old is your MCX kit, where did you buy it? If you have the latest program in it you can't over boost and you can adjust the rod all day long and not change...

    MCX 190 Ulmer Clutch Kit Overrev

    First off, Ulmer knows his stuff, so his setting usually is really close, so with 60g base and added 10g they are 70g, that's alot, even for a MCX190 ;). That makes me thinking something is wrong, could you verify with Ulmer you got correct springs and helix. If you still have stock helix and...

    MCX 190 Ulmer Clutch Kit Overrev

    Did the kit from Ulmer include helix and springs? I used Supertip 60y on an +300hp sled, fully loaded, but still, so the weights will be able to bring rpm down, as long as clutches don't bind and your gearing isn't to short. Why leave middle empty? Try heel 6, mid 4 and tip 2, for a start. How...

    MCX 190 Ulmer Clutch Kit Overrev

    You have altitude compensation on MCX, @ 2000 feet you should see ~ 7.3 psi. So set your wg rod as it was and look for solution for the over rev in clutches.

    RPM and boost are low

    To OP, i agree with FLYBYU, you would have more tuning opportunity if you had 50g supertip, 60g is in my opinion made for 10+ lbs. Having to run weights empty = no tuning.
