Most are. Most that advertise points mean decimal points not complete point like from 91 to 92. I know on my bike regular 91 non ethanol my bike don’t like. Mix of race gas or the klotz was fine. Doing math with diluting race gas mix and going off my piss poor memory I think bike needs 94-95 to not start pulling timing and run with no detonation at WOT. Got to run a very heavy mix to get to 100 like a gallon to 10. If they say a pint bottle is making 104 outa 10gal of 91 Im saying BS lol. Also going off piss poor memory most of whats in a booster that works is toluene or xylene. Some guys in cars run that as part of a home brew with success. But price of that mixing vs cost of race gas or race gas mix makes not cost effective. Again going off poor memory from along time ago with my car buddies.

When you start a car the pcm advances the timing until it detects ping, that tests the knock sensor’s and fuel octane.
Rough explanation
Maybe Poo has something similar?

You don't want to go to the nursing home do you
I run eth-free gas in pretty much everything (cars, sleds, small engines) other than my truck (diesel); I've been aware for a long time that you get some eth if there's blended gas dispensed from the same hose, but I've never worried about it. Even if it's a full gallon, it typically ends up being a very small amount of ethanol. Most blended gas is "E10," it has 10% ethanol by volume. So if you drive up and fill your sled and there's a gallon of blended gas in the lines before you get the good stuff, you're getting 1/10 gal. of ethanol (less than a pint). You'd end up running just over 1% ethanol, assuming you typically fill around 8 gallons.
It is a big deal if you're filling a typical can for your lawn mower or whatever, but I say it'd only be enough to worry about on a sled that gets topped off a lot. If you're really worried about it, either find a pump with separate hoses (half the stations I fill from do), or run in ethanol mode. Or just don't worry about it.

Doesn't look like it runs as good as my wife's sled.
So is the audible "whoosh" the wastewater? I never had any turbo action. So is it supposed to be kept revealing high So it can make boost and the lag you guys talk about is the build bag to rpm? Haha iam not riding with burandt!!!
Ugh....spellcheck sorry....
Really excited for him doing that this season! With how hard he rides and posts Everything! We will see how the boost holds up! I hope he rides the boost more than the doo so we see how it will actually hold up. More boost than doo might equal more problems. We shall see.
Hey chadly!
Have you ridden a khaos yet?
Put some good time on my Khaos converted 165 boost today in tight trees and good snow.
It’s a bundle of fun.
I think he got rid of it already because it gets bad fuel economy.
Is yours a Pro turned into a Khaos? Or a Khaos turned into a Pro? Sounds like a Trans sled ?
Same rails or did you change them?
Same rail’s same anti stab.
Fits like it was made for it.
Oem poo Khaos limiter strap
Taking buddies boost tomorrow but taking my daughter on her 400 yamaha so not sure I'll get to play too much. I boosted fts a bunch and rear is as soft as it goes. Just took shroud off. No margin for error on belt. Can't get that hot can it. Did crimp d rings to shorten a little.
Wouldn't even think about the weight if i didn't ride the stocker. My wife really noticed the weight but said she forgot about it after she rode it for a while. Sled is awesome. Stock matryx is awesome. Not sure i can say that about the 400 but my daughter likes it. If you want to talk planted, that sled is planted. Cant believe it with the alpha rail. Needs suspension adjusted or something. There is some serious whining under the hood but ran great. It isn't quite the bottom end of stock but close. The guage is the coolest thing ever. My wife and daughter were eating lunch while i was playing with the boost. Didn't know where they were and guage just took me right to them. Boost doesn't feel planted at all. Cant wait to get mine and get cv custom battery kit and diamond s on them. Didn't find anything Didn't like on either. Take that back. Hand warmers were scalding on high and too cold on low. One of the first polaris's I've rode that didn't have huge glob of ice on drop bracket and back of boards. I think they are better than an axys in every way. More power, ride lighter, better brake and guage, narrower, go through the snow better, quicker handling. Like the key placement for e start. Lower and narrow seat and tank is better. Way better to sit on than the skinz tank combo. My 2 cents.
Mods I believe this needs to be moved to average Joe's wife's sled review...
