Cmon, no one wants to comment on this?? Cant keep these guys off the 860 verus pump gas TM8 thread, but nothing here??

BJ will say splitting hairs, Kelsey will say his is more powerful then a T-apex
but use's 1/3 the fuel. Struthers will say he has a proven runner.
I will say buy a turbo.

LMAO!..so true
it seems BB's are yesterdays news....todays headlines read "run a turbo and be done with the BS HP claims"

As far as B.S. horsepower gains, might want to look at those pump gas turbos!!
Was up in Thief River a week ago and some of the engineers told me they dynoed one of Brett Rasmussens PGT M8's and it only showed like 10 hp over the stock M8..
Now of course it holds its horsepower better at elevation, but still....

No, I am really curious to how they compare. I know how Struthers stuff runs, want to know how they compare. Anyone?? How about against Struthers 910's??

Considering the fact that you can only run about 1-2lbs boost at the elevation in Thief River on Pump Gas that would probably be about right, BUT as the elevation goes up the boost can go up but the N/A is still loosing a lot more power than the turbo is.
I ride the PG kit on a 700 RMK and I will guarantee you that it will SMOKE ANY NA 700 RMK (not big bore) by a lot more than 10hp at any elevation above 5K, below I'm not sure about without race gas.
As for the 860's They are all potent from everything I've read on them and I strongly considered the Carl's Cycle 840 kit over my turbo but in the end was more expensive than my PG turbo kit after you pay for the pipe and reeds and you can't just put race gas in it, turn a knob and have another 30 hp on tap.
That and no matter what anyone says there is something to be said for stock engine parts.

860
Are you kidding me? Arts stuff will run with all of them easily.
LOL That's funny!!

I've ridden 3 of BJ's 860's.
I ridden against a struthers 910 with a stock Rev 800.
BJ's 860's are VERY tuff to beat, and ........... They LIVE long!

They dont run here in Utah. Seen an 860 and an 1160, both ran about like stock, very dissappointed.
umm...ALL SHR BB kits are ported...thank you very much...
I have customers commenting from the hills...I have seen my sleds vs a couple other builders and other brands BB/turbos...I'm comfortable with the results...BJ

Are you saying the Doo 860 has the Poo 860 covered??

Cant believe you was near Utah and didnt look me up!!
If I would have known you was at the Doo ride, I would have made a better effort to make it last Saturday!! I guess I need to go prove that a sled can run on 5#'s of boost.

Honestly...the TM8's we ran against were all of 8-8.6 psi (we saw the boost play back)...if they had 7 psi it would have been all 860...if they were at 5 psi = game over..NOW thats from seeing 2 TM8's built by the same guy...and watching them run a dozen times...now common sense tells me if they lose 3-4 psi they lose hp...and since it took everything they had to get 1 sled length on my 860???-BJ
BTW- the day before a race gas TD8 high mark was matched by SHR/RKT 860's...
I have 1 guy who sold his race gas 910 and runs my race gas 860...granted its 2 different sleds... he's keeping the the 860 for the power...BJ
