In the deep snow which some of you guys have yet to experience this season the 174 T3 hands down blows the Poo away in traction and in horsepower.

That's why I said boost. I don't think anyone will argue the doo has more horses stock. I ride with a couple new skidoo's and my boosted 174" pro is a problem for em' to keep up with!
Stock to stock, in deep handle bar pow , the ski-doo t3 will out do the stock pro. But put the 3" 162 on the pro and a t3 163 and the pro is better. Feels like less power but gets on the snow better and will climb higher. Just what I have see in out neck of the woods.
A lot of guys are putting their last name on their windshield, try that, seems to work!!!
"Keep Up".... under what conditions?
I've seen both sleds shine in specific situations...
Are you talking technical tree riding? Climbing? Deep Powder? Sidhilling over a cliff-band? .....????
The T-3, with the 3" track... especially the 174 will have, of course more traction than a 2.4" track...
On a sidehill... I've watched the Polaris outshine the Doo.
As said before ... much has to do with rider ability and familiarity with the chassis.
The T-3 IS a great sled... but, IMO, it is not necessarily a better sled.
If you mean "Keep Up" in deep, blower powder... simple... install a deep pow track like the X3...in the same length that you are comparing it to... gear it appropriately.... and you will have no problem "Keeping Up"
My 2 Cents.

T3
I own both, don't kid yourself that a Polaris 163 will keep up with a t3 163 or 174 in any condition lol. Down hill, up hill, sidehill etc. I have no reason to b biased I own both. Just the facts

Interesting that some think a 3" track is revolutionary. Coming stock on a sled is nice but these tracks have been around for quite a long time.

I think where the T3 is revolutionary is factory drop and roll, longer drop brackets and longer spindles for increased snow clearance.
Hopefully the new Poo is doing something along them lines combined with their narrower, lighter chassis and y'all will see something revolutionary
Again depends on snow conditions. We've had hardpack all season, out of about 20 rides so far this season we've seen the T3 go down the road like a slug and has been getting smoked on hardpack uphill pulls all season. If we ever get a big snow day maybe it will shine.
slp stage 4 kit my sled rips and sounds better then an etec.. was about 2800 installed adds an extra 20 hp 11lbs of torque and its mostly noticeable in the mid to top end its becomes a different machine

Ha! Or try a fancy decal on your rear window of your truck. See that a lot around here too.

Thank you Captain Obvious for the great insight.
Or take 15 pro to dealer with 3k and make trade to 408lb,160hp brand shine new one next year. Who cares if it keeps up. It'll sure be fun.
Around these parts they say "GONZALEZ HERNANDEZ MENDEZ" ect but they typically end in a Z. Never knew these guys had it figured out? Also the manufacturer of the car on the window must help as well?
