M8 Turbo vs. 900 RMK vs. M1000

Cool video comparing an M8 turbo to a couple of other sleds, notice the turbo is in untracked snow all the way where the other are not.

still...still the others did well...!!!...i mean yea the turbo was good...should be...but i was impressed with the other two as well...the 1000 did real fine...untracked or not...but love that turbo

yeah, the turbo is a pump gas turbo, so its not crazy fast, but very impressive.

The Turbo killed them. The RMK and the 1M both poached they way to the top.

Yeah, thats what is impressive about the turbo in the movie. it was in fresh all the way up.

well poaching tracks has been a disadvantage to me as many times as it has the advantage...especially if the track is trenched well...heck some times on the running boards at the bottom of the hill...lol...ok pump gas turbo is some info i didn;t know...yea it scoots well,good to see cause there has been a few neg posts on pg turbos but she looks good there..but back to poaching...i have many times better success cutting my own track.

 

[nwRMKman]

on that hill that day poaching was definitely an advantage.

I was riding the 900 rmk in the video and I will tell you there is no comparison to the pump gas turbo. He walked all over me. Granted its not really a fair comparison since he has twice the dough in his m8 as my stock 900. Sure shows what the money gets you though!

I have to agree, the turbo killed'em. He probably had another 3 or 4 MPH groundspeed than either of the other sleds. They're kind of like riding a well tuned 900 on nitrous but your bottle is never empty. Very Impressive!!

turbo the other two sleds and re-shoot the video please

Not a pump gas turbo, boondocker race gas running 9 lbs of boost, 156 extreme, if you want to see crazy fast I could open up the boost a bit but it's hard on the arms by the end of the day! Maybe this coming weekend!

sombody has to say it..... bolt the turbo on a stock 4 stroke and see what happens! Looks like a fun sled though, i sure like riding the M chassis!
