I'm pumped, First Turbo sled

[Mike89]

Bought this sled today, haven't seen it yet. 6- 6.5 lbs boost. I can't wait to pick it up next week. I just had to share with someone!!! Never been on a boosted sled before. How will i like it?? Supposed to be a pull and go, Garrett turbo. Will add av gas for at home (1000 feet) Anyone know about how much i should add for at home? 20-80% 50-50%???

Bummer man. Those things suck.

Seriously, you'll NEVER be happy with a N/A sled again!!!

6PSI at 1000 would be pretty sweet I bet!

(I ride high alt, so can't offer anything useful for ya, just smarta$$ed comments!)

At 1000' you should run 100% Av Gas if you want to run 6psi. Even that might be pushing it.

You will love boost! Its addicting!

Thats going to be like 12lbs up here. They do suck, I have no idea how my piped m1000 runs now, feels week. even compared to 6lbs.

 

[Mike89]

Thanks guys, I will not be running 6-6.5 down here. I will be running 4-4.5lbs,

 

[WyoBoy1000]

What elevation is it setup for.

 

[Mike89]

7000, same elevation I run at in the mountains

 

[WyoBoy1000]

At 7k you can run straight pump at 6lbs

Awsome, thanks for your help!! I think i may run about 20% av at 7000 feet. would 50-50 be good at home at 4 lbs boost?

 

[WyoBoy1000]

I have no idea below 7k, call the kit builder on that, You can run straight pump and see if you get any det codes, if you do turn it down, pretty easy. I seriously doubt you need more than pump at 7k and up, as long as its good pump.

Guy I bought it from said he mixing 30-70 just to be safe. But good pump was fine! Pardon my ignorance but where would i get the det codes? A/F gauge? And what does that mean?

Thanks for your help 1000

 

[WyoBoy1000]

On the gauge/speedo If it throws a det code it will flash on the gauge, Det code 21 is common, if you see code 23 its much worse. Usually if it feels like it bogs, kinda like a powder bog, so if it get a weird bog look at your gauge.

I had it happen last ride and for some reason I was building over 7lbs of boost, dropped it to 6lbs and ran great. straight pump

So what elevation was he riding it

 

[backcountryislife]

Who's kit is it anyhow? It doesn't look familiar.

 

[WyoBoy1000]

X2. other than the BD box

Anything you ccould tell me i need to know about about the kit?? Talked to Jeff at Quantum, seemed familiar with the sled, and willing to answer some ?'s i had.

 

[WyoBoy1000]

I would make jeff my new best friend until I knew everything.

I think i might just do that

Thanks guys

Oh what is better, higher or lower A/F numbers and at what throttle position??

 

[WyoBoy1000]

call jeff and ask him, every kit is different
