    Water Temp Gauge on Apex

    What do you run for temps most of the time. Did you notice a loss in power when temps got up? Already has a knock sensor so don't know why it then backs timing off when temps get above 185F, that really isn't very hot. Did you run the pc5 and shorter intakes?

    Water Temp Gauge on Apex

    Anyone running one of these on their 2011 or newer apex? Reason asking is once the apex gets above 185 water temp it retards timing 6 degrees as a safety precaution. So if you have noticed the apex not performing very well on hot days this is why. 6 degrees timing is probably at least 10hp loss...

    Top Speed Problems

    An sx 700 with psi pipes is at best 130hp, so no it doesn't have more hp than a viper! Also I had an 2006 apex at 150 hp at best only 15 more if that than the new viper and it definitely would easily do 110mph.

    Top Speed Problems

    Thinking about getting a 2014 o4 2015 Viper but not impressed with the top end of them. Any of you run against a well set up 700 sx. Had one and it would do 95mph all day on a good trail and it only made 115hp. These new vipers are making the same hp as the old 98 srx and weigh less but don't go...

    I guess it won't, hey, but the Sandy Bay is going to give my sled back tomorrow LOL..... I always thought that stock setup with a straight 43 would work...somebody out there who still has a sled should try it and get back to everyone..." don't knock it till you try it" Oh ya, and definitely...

    Some more internet racing...06 Apex vs 06 800x P-tec

    As I said in my previous post add a bigger rivet to the tip. Get a 270 rifle bullet and put it in the tip...they weigh 6.5 grams!

    Some more internet racing...06 Apex vs 06 800x P-tec

    Why not just add more weight to the stock ramps. Stock has 4.5 gram rivet in it....go to 5.5 grams and see. Why would you get rid of a belt that is just broken in?

    Stock vs improved apex

    "Have all the answers".....Unless I getting it wrong, my last post was all questions. I listed what I found on snow, 2 different sleds, starting to try different mods, that's it, nothing less, nothing more. My xs belt comes in at the same rpm everytime, hot or cold. And yes, same as yours my...

    Stock vs improved apex

    How did Allen set up you PcIII when you aren't running his air box mod, says that you are running Fixpowersport? What rpm are you coming it with Ulmer's clutching? Did you go straight to the cobra studded from the stock ripsaw, if so how did they compare. How did you come up with 23/40 being...

    Stock vs improved apex

    I agree that neither sled is set up perfectly by any means....the point to this testing was to see how the air box mod worked and we did that. My skid is stock settings...anymore transfer and the skis will come up too much, track spin and bog. Were are you coming up with the xs belt being no...

    Got Spanked Today by an '09 XP 800

    The sad part of all this is how much do you really think that the head mod helped....been there and done that with a good running 800....comes down to the simple fact that they are the same hp and 150lbs lighter....they are going to get out on you everytime.

    Modded 07' Attak Cutching

    xs belt will drop rpms 300 everywhere over a yamaha belt. Sledfreak, what map are you running I have presently the one that adds 1 on the top and have the 91 octane one ready to load that adds 4 to the top. I've always found mine like 10700 - 10800 the best..seems to freewheel too much running...
