t800

Mine is running Great!! and still fresh snow in the hills lol!

1400 kms. @12-13lbs on 100LL 5000-8500'

no issues at all still same belt!

Kit is nicely polished and fit and finish is top notch

Clutching is dead on and has adjustable weights for dif. boost levels.

Fuel controller was dead on give or take a little blue green for boost .

My buddy's is running great as well 800 kms 11lbs on 100LL 1000-5000'

Justin is a great guy to deal with and always answers the phone to help you out.

I for one am very please and recommend this kit to everyone

also anti ratchet drivers are not a bad idea as well . don't have to run the track so tight.

Over 1000 miles on my 2011 with a Silber kit.

Best riding season of my life. I had to change one belt at around 750 miles, as I torched it getting stuck in a river. Never ever touched my control box, seriously. I changed 1 light setting one day when I rode with Justin and he told me to change a light setting.

Had to add a few ounces of oil to the oil tank.

Rode the sled out west and in MN, and didnt have to readjust the box.

I ran 12 psi most of the time on 50/50 pump/race.

Sold the sled and now I snowchecked a new Turbo kit from Silber, He has some new changes that are going to put this kit way far beyond any ones elses. It was already the best in my opinion, just wait till next season. I know I cant. We be making a few sneeks over to his place to check things out this summer, may snag a few photos when hes not looking.

I would recommend this kit to any one. You can ride it all day, beat it, trail it, let your GF ride it. I rode for 3 straight weeks in Jelly stone, and had a blast, Gas and Oil was it.

I have kit that should be here on Tuesday the 19th. I will have it up and running by the weekend on either an Assault or a RMK. I have a BD up and running good. I am looking forward to beating up on it with Justin's kit.
So we will have 2 BD 163's out this next weekend to do some great side by side comparisons. I have a good feeling on the Silber kit.
I have put over 1000 miles on my BD kit and I am on my 3rd set of reeds.
I run 50/50 and not over 9.5#'s. I cant stand changing reeds. It's a real Pain in the azz. I am getting good at it. I now just carry another set of cages that are ready to go.

Cool let us know what happens!

You guys that blow reeds can you still ride the sled out with the blown reeds are is it a tow home time? I blew up some vforces once and it was hard to make it run.

 

[dcturbo]

It's still ridable but if your in a deep hole its tough to get the sled up on boost to get out. It may hit boost for only a second or two then kinda limps along. Its a sled that running really rich and now power.

 

[hobbes]

I'm really interested to hear what DC's experience is with the Silber kit. If it is anything like mine he's going to be one happy dude.

I had 20 miles on my sled just making sure everything was right on the build when I went on an 8 day straight trip to Yellowstone, Bozeman, and finally Cooke City. I put on 300+ miles in different kinds of riding, terrain, weather and altitude without a single hiccup. I ran the sled at 12 lbs of boost the whole time. Even with warm weather and sticky snow the charge box stayed surprisingly cool even without an intercooler. I have no doubt that I could easily go to 14 lbs on the straight avgas I was running but it was just too much fun riding it to mess with the clutching. The way it was i could have actually used another gram (75.5 grs) to run the 12 lbs anyway. What a great combination! The pro chassis and a great running reliable 220+ hp motor. I had more fun riding those 8 days than I've had riding my TApex at 18 lbs the last 3 seasons combined!

Thanks Poo and Justin for putting together such a great package!

 

[Jmanwillis]

I got the chance to ride one of siblers kits on a pro 155 at 11 pounds of boost that thing ran dang good with a little tuning! IT almost runs as good as my 700 with his kit. JSK.

 

[Insaneboltrounder/sjohns]

If the stars all line up this fall silber will have a 2012 cat to pressurize . You pol guys are gonna stop hogging justin

 

[ArcticJunkie]

I'll be right there with you insane!!!!! Planning on putting one on my new HCR. My buddy is going to put one one his assult. I can't wait for next year to ride both of those sleds. From all that I've read about Justin and his turbo kits and customer service that he has I can't wait to have one on my HCR!!!!!

 

[BuilderBob]

I'm curious to hear what Justin has in store for next year!!

You mentioned that even at 12lbs. your charge temps were pretty low. What charge temps are you Silber guys seeing at 12lbs??

So tEll us what happened.....

 

[gmustangt]

Speak up pro silber owners!
lets hear how there working!
im looking into one, cuzz they seem flawless...

 

[Arcteryx]

So tEll us what happened.....

And how about those charge temps. Curious to know what you guys are seeing????

 

[hobbes]

I don't have an intake temp sensor installed, but the box itself after a long climb in sticky snow at 35 degrees outside airtemp was no more than 135 degrees measured with a laser temp gun. My clutches were actually hotter than the charge box...
