I realize it's the most expensive sled on snow...but you're actually getting your monies-worth, compared to what the others are offering at their prices.

I agree. I have spent some time on a Cat with a TD tune and if it runs like the cat with the 225 hp tune then there is enough for me as a trail rider. Any more than that and you are approaching to much for trail riding. I am sure there are some that will disagree. Maybe I am getting old! I did touch one off at 275hp this year and I will admit with was a blast!

Yes I like yourself had a TD stage 4 tune on my 2013 LXR turbo,and on map 1 210hp was more than enough to get anyone in trouble at some point,and ya I did turn it up to map 2 245 hp and once map 3 275 hp but it loved my belts way to much for my pocket to take that much power,as I did not do the TCL delete and stuff,i did do Franks m300 shaft with Yamaha secondary clutch on,and it did help some,but my cold air fan helped even more,and I really like the way these panels and hood now come off.
