Rode a 22 850 155RMK last week with a Silber turbo and they took a standard length matryx and cut it about 1-2in shorter than a slash. So it has the longer cooler in it than the slash tunnel I'm told and they did not have to trim it. Anyway, we also had 2 other turbos with, one was another Silber and the other a Boondocker both on Axis chassis. Those two were running pretty much the standard 150-180 for temps with scratchers down running the trails to get into the deep and in the deep they were maybe 125-160 for temps. The new one I was riding was running 108-125 with the scratchers down on the trail and in the deep it stayer 108-110. Yeah, holy sh$t is what I thought too.
Anyway, with the my 23 Boost Slash 165 inbound yet I started looking for ways to maybe get it running a little cooler. Looked at the Boondocker Belly cooler, Too many stumps where I ride. Also saw where some are porting the exhaust out the top using a tractor elbow and a Boondocker port and cover and rerouting the TMP sensor to that location. Also Saw the sliding snow flap for the rear.
What kind of running temps on/off trail are guys using these getting? Is it realistic in expecting to get down to the temps that turbo I was riding last weekend without having to break the bank? What's the best bang for the buck? After riding that I now wish I had known and ordered a non slash and trimmed the tunnel the same way. I doubt I'll sell the sled either way but longevity and not constantly having to worry about temps would be pretty cool.
