- 15 LTX turbo Viper
I have a 2015 Viper Ltx with the dealer installed MPI turbo. The last year or so I have kinda sat back and tried to learn about what to watch for and what needed to be done or whatever. Originally I thought I would buy a newer sled so I wouldnt have to spend anymore than the initial cost. The jokes on me!!! Today I recieved my Larson 4th wheel kit and sent my shocks to Cannondale for a revalve. The Larson 4th wheel kit looks like a very quality piece. So far I have added C&A skis, 21/41 gears, yamaha tether, Rocz HID lights, MPI's "loud" pipe and bought the Hygear chamber to add to my front floats. This have to have list does stop....right?

It will never end! I would say on average I spend near $1000 on my sled every year and most gives little or no gain! Still better than buying new. Remember Yamahas built on TY get better the older they are.

Yes that is true! But it still is a lot of fun waiting on the new models to come out, then a few months latter going to pick up your new SLED!It will never end!

I can see how TY sleds are better. I have learned more than I can retain. It seems if there is room for improvement someone here does it and shares. Very solid group of members here!

I don't think it will ever stop;
Well the best part is once you nail the set up it will fit you like a glove and the guy with the newer one will be lagging behind you. 2 years so far and my old viper still has not lost to a new winder. We will see how this year goes!
