thanks...it all depends on color options this next year, and i have to ride the new sidewinder...see if the bottom end is good..im not a top end guy. I love to tinker and mod tho and i love the sound of a bov turbo sled...see what future holds but i sure love this thing, the track made the sled 10x better
 
i think you and i have similar styles. I have a ltx se and pretty much changed around the rear skid to allow the most transfer i could safely get out of it before i even rode it haha. I kept reading that the ltx was bad and had heavy steering, my impressions are that they just need to change things around. With the torque of this engine, i may try a bigger lug track too. I kind of dont like the clutter of the sidewinder in the engine compartment. its over whelming when you pull the side panels. the viper seems more simplistic which i appreciate. but man with a tune.....270hp has to be a riot!
 
Your sled looks Awesome! Great job. Looks and is better than new for sure.

yah i pulled the transfer blocks..dual rate front spring and revalve its perfect....the track just took it up a notch i love the ability to lift the front when ever i need for trail hazards and play. Im just worried i wont like the bottom end, drove a few cat turbos and the bottom end lag was to much..even modded i love how snappy this engine is.

Thank you sir

I guess what you have to keep in your mind is, when the turbo is not spooled on the sidewinder its heart is still the viper engine, so the snappieness is still there. Them 1100 engines are dogs with out a turbo! spool up is not even comparable.

but non the less. That hilarious! i have almost same exact set up, i have hygear twisted dual springs in the center shock, i through my blocks in the garbage and limiters all the way out. im pumped!!! you need to post videos!
