XC, thanks for the update on the new dbA limit. I wasn't aware of that change.

Sure. No they are not approved by Polaris. But they work and hold the back pressure because we develop them on the dyno to have very close to the same airflow and hp numbers as stock. Maybe we will have to look into getting them approved.
well an MBRP can claims 2hp, terms of back pressure i have no idea
but from the other pics of light weight cans mines bigger than the powder lite muffler you make. My sled runs better with an MBRP can on it anyways, throttle response is nice with it
but i would really like to know if it would work with the BMP pipe cause i love the sound of a MBRP on my sled. and need more power, stock suitcase sucks *** and i dont wanna buy another can
I can't truthfully answer that question for you. All we test here is our products and make sure they work. I will say many aftermarket cans will gain you a little more bottom end, and lose on top because of having too much airflow. I can say ours do not lose peak hp and most times gain a tiny bit down low... sometimes even on top. But its usually nothing to brag about.
upon further investigation Bugito is right, the law for snowmobiles in CO mf after 1975 is 88 db.I have a buddy who is working with a manf. and Colorado Law. His repsonse was 88db at 12 feet from exhaust at 4k RPM. I know that the law takes effect in July 2010. MountianHorse, you are right, it is too bad. Too many wicked loud stingers out there.
I see that peak power is around 8400 rpm. According to a Polaris tech i know the old map, (last years maps), had an "rev limiter" built/programmed in that pushed 30% more fuel in for 20-30 seconds if you reached this limit revs. And the limit was set to something like 8300-8400, (dont remember exactly but it was not far above standard peak power revs)
Isnt this going to be a problem if a higher reving pipe is fitted? Or did they remove this "genious feature" in the new map?
(this rev limiter might explain some fuel consumption problems people had last year)
Many after market mufflers have too much flow which lose peak hp. Thats why i highly recommend checking out our mufflers if your going to go after market because we develop them on the dyno to not lose hp.
On Friday we ran the Dragon 800 with the billet head and the pipe on from the day before. It was raining all afternoon, with all the humidity in the air the baseline was slightly down from the day before. With our low elevation billet head we picked up some nice gains of 3ft/lbs of torque and 5hp. So the combination of our single pipe and low compression billet head picked up 14-15hp over stock. High elevation guys can expect that number to go up to almost 20hp with our 14:1 high compression head.
Today (Monday) we will run all this with a set of new Boyesen Rage Cages.
So, at 20 hp, that would put them at 175hp. That is better than the SLP twins and probably more bottom end. I hope to see you guys out here testing your stuff in the steep n deep. Good luck this pipe n head sounds like a good deal, How much????
Hey Mike,
Glad you posted this stuff. A couple questions for you.
- Do you recommend EGT gauges for your mapping and mods?
- Have you, or do you plan on coming out west to test at elevation?
- Your results look a lot like DynoTechs graphs, do you guys work together on this stuff?
162hp i likey
Mike are you going to make a performance package that includes head, pipe, boondocker computer?
