Boondocker kits for KTM 500?

Have they got the KTM's sorted out, or better go with KMS?




Appears they've got some good runnin Jap bikes out there.

I had a really hard time getting my bike tuned with the boondocker turbo kit. It always had a bog no matter what fuel numbers they sent me. So what I did was I remade the whole turbo kit, I built it with a plenum and I relocated the turbo closer to the header. Seems to work better now. But if I was you I would go with KMS kelly sells great turbo kits and he definitely knows what he is doing, great guy.

Thanks, got a dealers sells them, so would be easy. But seems KMS has a better rep around here.

Just looking at the designs, KMS understands that a big single needs a big airbox to help the bottom end perform, boondocker with the 2' long 2" pipe, its going to bog out of the hole... you can only tune around a bad design so much.

What kind of boost number are you looking for?

I ran a 500xcw with a 2016 timbersled long track last year, no engine mods. Just picked up a '15 450sx to make a dedicated snow bike. I've been looking at aerocharger and boondocker, but open to anything at this point. I'm looking to pull the trigger by September on something.

6lbs is what I was thinking, just want to get back what's lost at altitude, and maybe have a longer life than going higher.




Would like to pull 6th on the trail, and just a little more poop to get out of tight spots.




Not against Aerocharger, but would be nice to hear from someone who's run one.

What I have been told is people have an issue running under 10 to get it running right... That is what I have been told.. call Kms he is super knowledgeable and will talk you ear off

I'm going to check out KMS. My understanding on aerocharger is they don't really go over about 8psi.

I'm not looking for crazy boost numbers, 90-100hp on a snowbike is going to be nuts. very happy to talk to someone at KMS and pick their brain. What type of turbo are the using?

KMS uses Garrett.


Would have to run oil lines to the turbo.
