Turbo for 2005 RX-1

[cadman]

Can someone tell me what a stage1 turbo would cost? What is the best brand to use? Not really into racing that much but my friends have a 2005 900 fusion and a ski-doo machZ. They said they are going to spank me bad unless the lake is 2-mi long. They want to run 660' front dead start. I am picking up sled in 2-weeks on mods are olin front shocks, graphite slides and drop 1-tooth on gear so I can still trail ride. Thanks in Advance

Buy any Turbo on the market, all you need is 6lbs of boost to stomp them into the ground. Period nuff said. (Unless they have NOS or a Turbo then you'll need more boost)

We all have our brand preferences, but Fever is correct pretty much any turbo with 5 or 6 pounds of boost will accomplish your goal.

Also DO call Matt he is knowledgable and an all around god guy.

Well, I don't know about him being a "god" guy, but he is pretty good to deal with...

CRAP!! now we are all going to have to live with the inflated head I probably just gave Matt! It was a typo.

That's all right Ray I'm used to waiting.

I typically use 7-8psi trail riding(low boost) 11-12 on high boost.

POWERHAULIC: Are you using an aftermarket boost controller, or are you adjusting the wastegate to create a higher low boost setting? Thanks

 

[POWERHAULIC]

Adjusting the wastegate controller rod.

 

[cadman]

Wow

You guys really know your stuff. I will give him a call. Thanks

How do you adjust the wastgate control rod???

 

[Buckeye]

The rod on the actuator has a lock nut on it. Loosen it and turn the rod clockwise(tighten). This puts more tension on the diaphram spring which requires more pressure from the compressor to overcome and move the actuator rod to open the wastegate on the turbo.

 

[JRD69]

There is no locknut on mine??? It is in a fixed position mounted to the exhaust side of turbo going into the wastegate.. Maybee I need a longer rod??
