Boy Am I excited, to build this new sled.
I have decided to do my RX1 and make it more like a pro stock this time around, but stick with the exact engine and clutching combo to start and see where the chassis can take me.
Northeast turbo kit
Camoplast speed track 136 x 13.5
woody's chisels and backers
Proline racing will provide the 136" race suspension, skis and aluminum drivers on order.
Vortech Race bypass
aluminum tubing for charge pipes
Lightweight hood
Pro stock front shocks
STM Super tips
STM carb covers
Innovate XD-1 wide band and gauge
K&N air filter.
Many more to come.
This is just the beginning, this one is going on Slim fast :exc:
My goal is 5.0 at 130 in 660 We will see.
It will be ready for next season, I have a lot of work to do over the summer.
To all turbo non believers and hatters be ready to

NO!!! and my "BETTER HALF" lets me know how much I don't (shouldn't)like it. :ORC However, it sure is fun riding the $#@^ things. I don't think I could ever go back to riding a naturally aspirated sled again. HP rules.

What are you going to run for a clutch enclosure?

It protects the turbo from compressor surge on decel which can snap turbo shafts and bend blades.
Also helps turbo spool up by relieving pressure while carbs are only partly open.

Supertip weights
Ted, I am glad to see that you are having such a good time with your sled. What do you think of the cost for the parts on these sleds. Wasn't it cheaper to build a car than a sled? At least when you spent a thousand bucks on a car part most of the time it looked like it may be worth it. Now to change the subject a little bit, I know that you have been running the supertip weights. Have you been able to run your sled long and hard enough to heat up your clutches? I ride in the mountains with the boondockers turbo and have had problems now twice with the arm bushing wanting to slide out. This causes the arms to bind and you know what happens then. I was just curious if this has happened to you or anyone else you may have heard from. Thanks

Re: Supertip weights
I think the parts are a little more expensive but not terrible and I attribute that to the size of the market compared to cars.
I had no such experience with bushings or binding.
If your getting a lot of heat in your clutches your not clutched right, temps should not be more that engine temps.
Try going to lower helix angle and more weight to make clutches run cooler.

supertip weights
The clutching is real close. The first time this happened the clutches were cool to the touch, that is why I thought maybe it was a fluk. The second time was after pulling some long hills in 3-4 ft of powder with no breaks between 3-4 runs. I have had Yamaha clutches for the past 23 yrs. I have seen all the problems that they had with there clutches until they finally came ut with a the one they have now that works well. However the plastic type bushings that are in the supertip looks alot like the ones that Yamaha also had problems with. That is why that fiber bushings that Yamaha makes are alot better. They will take some heat and still work well. Thanks for the input though. Marvin
