Absolutely. The second 8JP now has 600 miles on it, but knowing it was topping out at 112 mph I didn't hold it open up there, as soon as I would hit 105 I'd let off since we were doing a two 300 mile days in a row and I wanted it to live. Hopefully it gets cold next weekend, we get a fresh inch or two of snow and then I'll hit the lake to see if the shims work. I also added the Dalton 35/39, but I wouldn't expect that to affect top speed at all.Thanks for write-up Beerman. Let us know belt life now that you've made some clutch changes. And Dan, i'll be waiting on your 16 page report from your testing...

You might be surprised about that helix. You might add a few MPH. My opinion.

Great talk with Ben today, ECU is coming out this afternoon on Toms sled and boxed up on its way to TD tomorrow AM. PT, Dalton weights and a SQ are on the itinerary....
Ben was explaining how quiet the stock MODDED muffler is, and it really has my attention for my own sled(to come) maybe next season, even though the power is down approx 8hp i feel like it might be a good sacrifice for a pleasant trail sled. Will see how Toms SQ sounds, and if its not bad I may just steal it from Tom for my own...lol

I was out on the lake today ran 131mph gps in 1 to 1.5 inch of slush over the ice.
Had too much gear for these crappiee conditions. Was still plenty fun.

I was wondering how you made out today Ben....similar conditions here, 5c and water on top of the ice, no slush but enough water to slow you down alot for sure.I was out on the lake today ran 131mph gps in 1 to 1.5 inch of slush over the ice.

Btw guys we offer for a limited time a free upgrade to express shipment for ecus. We already ship via ups which is express compared to usps or canada post. The upgrade means we will pay for you the 30 to 60$ premium for express shipping. We also do same day turn around for ecus shipped via courrier. We recommend fedex for US if possible or ups. Purolator dicom or other courriers for canada are good as well. Avoid postal service for anything urgent.
We have never lost a package receiving or sending in years of doing business. So stop worrying and ship us your ecu to get the most popular ecu reflash on the market.

What do you mean? My XTX doesn't transfer worth crap with the blocks out/limiters out...Rear shock on LE received some low speed bleed and now the 137 transfers like it should with blocks in place and limiter out.

So do you ever wish you got the 137? Concerned with traction myself, but do not want to sacrifice transfer.

Not me. I like the 129. Came off a 136. Transfers great and is very nimble in the twisties.So do you ever wish you got the 137? Concerned with traction myself, but do not want to sacrifice transfer.
