let me tell you a story about a sidewinder named “orange you glad” orange for short.
The 270 flash is absolutely bonkers fast mid range right to top. You don’t get bord of this girl.
This flash seems to run big boost right away and keep pulling. Very snappy a snotty. Corner to corner it just works! On and off that’s your decision.
I could not get enough of this machine. Problem was it’s not mine. I had to give it back to a very happy sled owner
Clutching ,we are running dalton springs and weights with a dalton helix and ultimax belt. Shift was very smooth for all the power and clutches ran fairly cool. Not stock cool but no where near ski doo temps.
I seen 120 mph but never had the chance again for another speed run. More was there.
Orange is my new side chick.
Have fun and stay safe.

So this is a Hurricane SM Flash at 270 right?? I got the bundle 225,240 and 270 SM Flash, so this is good news.
I know you said Dalton...but What primary spring and Helix are you running if you don’t mind me asking??

Yes thanks, gunna run for awhile mostly stock, i changed gears to 2.04 ratio and have the dalton springs in with stock clutching and feels pretty good, then will flash 225 and play with clutches, wanna see if the dtya1's empty and 35/39 helix will work for that then will go to 41/35 and the bigger tunes

I had to put a Turbosmart BOV in mine..the stock one leaked like a siv. Many leaky hoses and cheap clamps, and exhaust leaks as well. And I needed to put in a 3 bar map sensor to get the Boost and HP that the tunes claimed. Had it Dyno’d without and with these features, and the differences were night and day.
She is now hitting the numbers/HP as Dave said it would.
Won’t be able to ride it until the day after Xmas...so looking forward to see how she goes compared to Stock.

I did a lot of testing last year with stock sleds . Best stock setup was 33/35 with stock weights. Black orange secondary. This is a trail setup.Yes thanks, gunna run for awhile mostly stock, i changed gears to 2.04 ratio and have the dalton springs in with stock clutching and feels pretty good, then will flash 225 and play with clutches, wanna see if the dtya1's empty and 35/39 helix will work for that then will go to 41/35 and the bigger tunes
The dtay1 are too heavy for stock. I don’t think they will pull the rpm

I’m only going by the boost gauge in the cluster. It read 16 all day on orange.

Yes i want to see if the 225hp will pull those weights empty or not then i would only have to change helix for other tunes, will probably run 240 most of the time my trails are tight and twisty, but will get the bov and sensor for 270 sometime so i can get full power
