I am thinking about switching over from a 09 m1000 with all of the bolt on mods and putting out around 200hp give or take, to the 2013 pro. I know the chassis and like it so I was wondering what people are doing to get some real HP out of this motor. I like the sled but would want to get some more hp out of it, being a bigger rider. I know turbo is an option and am seriously considering that route with the pro, also the PAR motor. What else are people doing to make real power. I am riding at 8000+ altitude
More HP on the Pro

All depends on $. Turbo will obviously be biggest power. Par 1100 ( around 220 hp ) most expensive at $12000.00 ( ouch ) but cool. Par 910 I believe still working on programming. Carls Cycle 900 is said to be running strong ( somewhere in the 180-185 hp I believe ). Slp has different stage kits from 1 to 4, but I think Carls would be better. RKT has BB some love him some not so much. There are a few others out there like bikeman and tera-alps, but I do not know alot about them.

i also had a similar m1k and my stock pro will murder it in every way, including climbing. this chassis works sooo much better, that even with less power than your m1k, it will dominate it.
This is surprisingly true. Even down on power this sled just freaking works. I have never ridden a sled before and thought the power seems fine, but I have very little desire on this sled for more power. I spend so much time in the trees now that the stock power is more than though. And because the sled gets up on the snow so well, a lot of times I am riding at partial throttle anyway. Crazy. I love this sled!

Like others have stated I too think the power is surprising. I've thought about more power and the options I would go for are a Silber turbo or 910. I think the Pro does amazing in the trees. The only time I really want more power is for pure hill climbing in the deep. I just can't justify spending so much coin to climb a little bit higher. I'm afraid the turbo would just not respond the way I'd like in the trees. Get out and ride that 2013 before you make any decisions.
