Thinking of getting one of these just have a few questions for you.

I always end up with the my sled running upside down for awhile. Will this tank work, in your video you dont hold it upside down for more than 1/2 a second, My sled will be upside down for maybe a minute at a time. Will the tank leak if held upside down for awhile? If the tank is just baffled, I would think eventually the oil will come back through the drain hole. Also what happens with the line hooked up to the vent hole, can you put the line on the tank and let the tank sit upside down for awhile? I seen a few kits last year that would leak oil out of that line.

Ive seen some turbos fail from excessive oil heat, is there any type of cooling system this year? I noticed your supplying coolant lines on the turbo, but any way of cooling the oil. Ive been doing some research and emailed Garrett about this and they confirmed that if the oil gets to hot it will take out the plastic bearing retainer in the cartridge. Also is the oil heat destructive to your oil pump? Ive read a few post of pumps failing and thought the hot oil temps may be contributing to that.

Do you have any type of fail safe incase the oil leaks out of the tank, or the oil pump stops working? A gauge or light? I feel this is a must with the turbo kits that run an electric pump. 16oz of oil can be lost almost instantly without notice while riding.

Also are the kits including the throttle boot plate? Seems to be a common problem with the polaris sleds.

I never had an issue last year with leaks with the sled on it’s hood for longer periods they will leak if overfilled though. So roll it over as long as you want.

The oil temps are very low so the oil is not the issue (now maybe if you were picking your oil up off the motor (4-stroke) and had a problem with oil temps. Cooling lines to the turbo are a must with the new bearing retainer but the oil in these systems does not have a temp issue.

The new BD oil will help allot if say you had a problem but the pumps and driver boards last for a long time and has been a non-issue for most of the kits as there are allot of kits out there now.
