Nice how does it do compare to a TM8 162"

 

[CATSLEDMAN1]

Safety first

Hey.......bring one of those by the shop so I can give it a test ride, not sure kids like you ought to be playing with that kind power without a thorough checkout spin.

 

[mmsports]

Done.

Finally!

We've been waiting for someone to build a Mtn Z1 turbo all year long! More info and pics please! A video would be sweet also. Looks good keep us informed please.

 

[570MC]

We need some more pics that show up

Just for everyone to know... that Z1 turbo that Kevin built is the coolest sounding internal combustion engine I have ever heard. Sounds like a YZF 450 on steroids with a distinct whistle. Awesome! I will buy one the day they weigh 500 pounds.

 

[Hotchief]

What do they weigh?

I wonder if it would be a pig in the powder or flat out float?
I bet it would be a bee-otch to dig out...

I was thinking myself about long tracking the 2010 Z1 ext with the optional 162 kit offered in the parts catalog.

Sure looks sweet.

When the weight comes down or someone creates a light weight kit for them, could be interesting!!

 

[89sandman]

looks cool, but whats the weight??? if its only 170ishhp and weighs a ton more than an M1000 why??? what does the thing cost??? seems like a lot of work and money for a novelty sled. don't get me wrong if you've got the money and time great, but if your sinking your hard earned cash into your only sled for the coin i think you can do much better...

 

[type_a_positive]

I`m sure it atleast got a Hi-Jacker on it...

 

[minet]

yup

i have heard one of these turbo 4stroke AC sleds on the trail before, dont know if it had a can or not , but i have to agree,, some badazzz sound for sure..
reminded me of the pod racing scene in that starwars where luke is a kid.. sounded like a pod racer lol

 

[mmsports]

Z1

Yes it has a Hi-Jacker turned all the way up to 280 HP plus the button an extra 100 HP.
162 08 Skid

With very little mods the Z1 can put out a lot more power, if you compare this to a stock nitro it could be a significant improvement for not much $$ whereas the nitro need $6k+ to be worth a crap.

I think the guys that are 4 stroke are 4 stroke, they're not even comparing to our sleds really.

Changing a back 1/2 of tunnel & the track/rails is pretty cheap really, I wouldn't think this would be too pricey of a sled.


Edit: just read post above, compare 12k for 280hp to a nitro for how much?? That's not bad! Still not going to buy one, but not bad all the same!
