bd sidekick vs silber

[CO 2.0]

I put 1-2 gal of 110 oct in with non eth 91 on my silber. At 10-12K it does run a tad rich at 5lbs. But I'd rather run rich for piece of mind

Man that's some elevation right there. Should be able to run 7# with that fueling setup.

We run 7# all the time @ 9500' and p with 2 gal of 100llc to 4 gal of 91 non eth and it's the way to go on our Silber FWIW.

I ran 7lbs at sea level with 3 gallons of 110 and never had a issue as well.

What Clutching are running? I ride sealevel and we've never ran more than 5# and we are mixing 50:50.

I had two boondocker inter-cooler kits on pros and installed a silber kit on a new axys in feb. The lag is much more noticeable on the silber and clutching is way to hot. The silber has good power, I picked up different clutching but didn't get to try it. I just ordered a sidekick to install on a customers sled that I ride with, so I will have a good comparison this winter. I ride with several sidekick turbos and they all run good every day. I was tired of the tunnel dump and think silbers kit is more bang for the dollar but really don't like the extra lag.

Would definitely love to hear back with some direct comparison!!!

That's got to be a horse @ 7# at sea level!!!!

I ran exactly what Justin told me to run. I cant remember what that was. It worked perfect.

Sled felt good but always felt better at higher elevation.

You should feel Mucho better at lower elevation- you have so much air to cram in there @ 7# would be a ride- and on the fuel your runnin....
Us here in the nose bleed elevations beg for the HP you see daily with the added boost! We don't have the air..

So you ran the clutching given to you by Justin @ sealevel and ran 7# of boost? What RPM's were you seeing?

Clutch weights

I was quoted a Silber Turbo with adjustable weights to run flatland and out west. Well, long story short, had buy my own, now I'm off to Indy Dans setup. Haven't tried the new setup, but I'm sure it will be better.

I believe I was pulling 8300 to 8400. Justin never told me to run 7lbs at sea level I just did for fun . But what he told me for sea level and 9k+ he was spot on for clutching on my sled.

thanks every one, got a 2018 bd sidekick on order supper amped hope its as reliable as iv been hearing. has anyone changed any gearing to get more track speed what gages do i need for temp and fuelling is any of that even a worry or just ride it ?

Hopefully your above 5k elevation. If not best of luck.
