Blown Motor On My Nytro

[Prairie Dog]

"All a thread like this that changes by the minute does is confuse the sh!t out of newbies to yamaha, boost etc."

I think you guys are both right. Being a newbie to Yamaha and boost, this is exactly the info I'm looking for when I am on here. Thanks for posting this saying what boost you ran and what happened.......but being a newbie even I would have a hard time running 18lbs on Pump fuel (You're lesson learned is one I won't have to learn on my own).

And good on the dealer for backing up the product they sell. I heard that dealer was good and this just makes me feel better when I finaly write them the cheque for doing my instal.

Whether he told you it was safe to run on pump at 18lbs........that's between you and him

Write this date down....I completely agree with Darko

Well now that it's all over the internet you can bet that sled is definately red flagged in terms of warranty. Too bad you had to "tell" everyone not to run their Nytro at 18lbs on pump. If your dealer was going to put it under warranty and now it really does have to come out of his pocket.....I'd be feeding those boys a couple cases of beer to ease the pain(although they shouldn't be trying to scam Yamaha in the first place......if they were thinking that way.....which sounds like they are pretty stand up people so????)

Anyways, thanx for tellin' us not to run 18lbs on premium. I'll be sure to remember that

your sled going to be ready for thursday night??, we will be heading to the pass i hope and want to see that thing in action if it is running

steep and deep with trees tobout

Freddy, we've all told ya plenty of times were ready when you are, instead of flappin, man up and come to Revy. I know McLaren's waiting for ya. Hahahaha

By the way, i see you have an 885 in your XP, you got all that done and a new XP for 14k ? Who are you kidding................

There's plenty of BS on this thread already, we need no more. lol

I just got off the phone with Myles, and I gotta say that the way apexman brought this up I was doubting it a little bit, thus the reason for calling myles. The nytro kit is supposed to be like the 07 apex kit and shut the boost off at 12-15 pds. Myles never told apexman that he was good to go on 18 pds boost with premium fuel. He did set it up for that 12-15 pds boost, and he did tell apexman to go out and have fun. whether it's miscommunication or whatever, these sleds should not be run at 18 pds boost with premium fuel. there has been 2 of these cases reported from Myles, apexman's and Myles demo sled. also, there must have been a couple of kits that Myles recieved where the actuator rod was too short period, and didn't have enough adjustment, thus apexman's comments on the rod being to short. Myles is understands the situation fully, and is on top of it. Darko is right in everything that's been said, just the way this thread was brought up made it a bit confusing. Thistle, Myles understands everything about mc kits. you may think different, that's fine. he's taking responsibility for this learning curve and making it right for apexman and avoid these being set at 18 (accidentally) in the future. hope this clears this up.

If you as you said made 6 runs at the hill at 18lbs boost then you knew you were running 18 lbs of boost, I don,t believe your dealer told you you could run 18 lbs on pump fuel. most likely he told you it was set up to run pump fuel which is the way they should com from MCX, and I am sure he thought you had enough common sense to look at the boost gauge and relize when it said 18 lbs that was too much. thats what a boost gauge is for to say hay stupid you are running to much boost let out and check it out. other wise why bother running one if it doesn,t matter how much boost you run on pump fuel. and you already haveing experience with turbo,s should have known 18 lbs was too much, getting on here and telling the rest of us this story just insenuates we are as stupid as you thats why some of these guys are giving you such a hard time, and you dealer must be a great guy to be taking care of you after this, maybe he understands you special cercumstances.

Another question. I was told at mid throttle that a guy can see 15lbs on the MCX kit and then at WOT it will settle back down to 12lbs so is this true??? Thanks hope to run my kit this weekend and would like to know what to exspect and what to watch for.

Can I get some pie with my shattered pistons? I like pie. And will my dealer pay for my pie. I think I would like some pie right now. I sure hope they have good pie. Do you like pie? Pie is round, until you cut it, then it is shaped like a funnel that you could use to pour 110 octane fuel into your tank, then none of us would have wasted our time on this thread.

one thing my dealer had me do for my first tank with boost is run race gas ,so i could see where the boost is and make sure it was safe.---jim

i will be calling when we are off to revy, but snow is to good at crowsnest... 14k and change in the little girl as she stands

be there thursday night if weather prevails

 

[Ken Climb]

Myles is way to good to you! You blew up his Demo then proceeded to run yours at 18lbs on pump fuel till it blew????WTF???? And Myles is fixing it all up for nothing???

I've never been so blown away! I don't know what to say! Good for you ...I guess.I hoped you learned something or will you keep running your next one that high on pump again???

funny how a blown motor, in the yami section is a big deal, and in the skidoo section, it doesn't get 10 looks...

hmmmm. Myles didn't mention you blew up his demo too. I'm with Kenny on this one, don't think you'll ever get that treatment anywhere else.

haha

just wanted to thank all you guys for the entertainment today. This has made me smile every time i checked in.

thanks again
robo

p.s. any one in here intrested in a poo 800 with boost???

you can run 18lbs if you want it rips, maybe on 91, if you want, but i would run c16

just kidding

bye

wrong boost for you

i think that if your dealer had any idea that you had no idea of what 18lbs of boost meant, he would have installed an sc instead of turbo. set at stage 1, 10-12 lbs boost, direct drive, engine rpm directly relates to boost, no chance of overboost, that might be better for you if 18 lbs of boost means that little to you when you know there is pump gas in the tank. just an observation.

 

[upnover]

im no expert

i have been on turbo for 3 years now on apex 13 lbs on premium no problems. first ride on nytro boosted was dynoed for your info premium is ok and does not make 300 hp it is around 240 dyno does not lie. it did not throw a rod top of piston indicates lean not detonation

but if your at 18 lbs of boost, your motor must only be running on 2 cylinders to make 240 hp. there is no way that the boost showed 18 on their dyno when it said 240 hp. 15 lbs of boost (sc with no headshim) with 50/50 racefuel is shown to make around 280 hp. dont hate the messenger, do your homework. the reason people are being hard on you is simply because you dont have a clue. if you had said, "blew up my motor, something went wrong and my boost was way higher than it should be and i didn't notice till it was too late. check your linkages or watch for freezin linkages fellow mcx owners". then people would have took notice and said thanks for the heads up. but you came off as an idiot for not knowing that 18lbs on pumpfuel is well, quite frankly, very dumb. Never met you, might be a great guy and very smart in other areas, and hey, its ok to admit you made a booboo. i do it all the time. and by the way, if your sled was set to run on pump fuel, i would assume you dont have the fuel upgrades so even at 18 lbs of boost with race fuel, you could be sooo lean that it still might burn down. the stock fuel system cant supply enough fuel for that horsepower. my .02

compare a 20+k sled to a 14k

It will be a slaughter Fred but it might just bring you over to the dark side!

 

[up-high]

The most amazing thing about this thread is that Reeb agrees completely with Darko! And the fact(?) that the Nytro will be ready when?
