So I haven't posted in a while. But thought this would be amusing while we all wait for snow.
....still have my Nytro. I've said it many times... no reason to change it out. The new front end is a bomb and it's still a riot to ride. Power is really good...not as good as my 800 E-Tec Ski-Doo...........
AND THEN I READ THIS

147 official HP from Rotax???? What happened to 162????
So stock nytro is 135. Ulmer/PC5/Hindle/Excell/K&N/Air Box Mod. Any combo of these will get you a measly (and honest) 5-8hp more. So after taking all the abuse/grief we've been getting over the years about 1050cc Nytro engine's being 600 class motors... the HP delta is a measly 5HP or less with very basic mods to the best in class 800??? I'm hurt!
Sure the 850's have higher HP but you know what I'm saying....
