Update - February 7. - Picked up a "New" sled. 2006 Apex With custom turbo system. And a few pics from my real job 
I got the sled from a good friend of mine, he's the one that caused the turbo garage to come into existence.
The sled need a lot of work, I'm going to build it from the ground up.
My hope is to make around 400 HP when the sled is done.
It's going to be an interesting Project, thanks buddy.
I got the sled in parts and pieces, which is great, then I can rebuild it from the ground up.
When not working on turbo sleds I make a living running the computer systems for the local government at the county hall downtown. Installing more Storage.
I need a few parts before I can rebuild the sled.
The sled encountered a cross pin failure at the #4 piston.
The Wiseco 2006 cross pin failed causing damage to the piston, Carrillo rod and all 5 valves, it also caused damage to the cylinder and Block. I'm thinking of getting hold of a used engine or a New cylinder Block.
Anyone having one laying around?
More to come.

No I have not ridden the sled yet.
The owner is getting the break in miles done, then we will do the test and see what it does.
I don't know when.

Update - April 14. - Tuning a few Apexes.
It's been a slow season in rxrider's Turbo Garage.
At last a few late season tuning sessions came in.
A few guys wanted to get a little more out of their sleds the last few weeks of the season.
This sled was in to adjust boost pressure.
The sled was Down on boost, only 10 lbs.
I adjusted up the pressure in the MCX ECU boost map and took the sled for a spin.
No change in boost pressure.
I smelled gasoline when giving it wot???
I checked all the fuel lines and hose clamps, all checked up Perfect.
We figured what it was, the fuel rail had jumped off the engine slightly leaking boost pressure.
The intercooler came off and then the fuel rail. Reinstalled everything and the boost leak and smell gasoline was gone.
Adjusting boost pressure up slightly is NeXT.
The NeXT sled was in for a fuel system Upgrade. It's a Apex With MCX260 we're upgrading to MCX290.
The Stock fuel pump is not up to the task and has to be removed.
A New high capacity fuel pump is going in to feed the engine the fuel it needs at 290 HP.
The fuel pump installed.
The Stock fuel pump has been removed.
It's replaced by an adapter.
The Stock fuel pickup is removed from the Stock fuel pump Assembly and installed on the fuel pickup adaptor.
The old Stock fuel pump has been removed.
The sled has the MCX Gen2 ECU, it's possible to install the MCX Display unit to it but it's a lot of work.
Instead we installed a Hallman Pro RX manual boost Controller to raise the boost to 14 lbs or 1.1 bar.
