PUSH $2995 turbo

[savage]

With more tweaking they ran on pump gas ( more $$$$).

I heard a different story about the running of those sleds last weekend.

Optimism is for the seller, realism is for the buyer. Be advised.

There has only been like 75 shipped 50 to Yamaha and 25 to dealers. I have only seen 5 myself and I have 25 ordered I have one more coming and its staying at my shop for me I am putting the PC on it for testing so we can get more info. We had 3 at west last weekend and they ran great. We had some issues with octane but they ran real good ended up with some race gas in them but with some more tweaking got them to run on just pump gas.

I have a Push Turbo M8 G PG coming next week.

Have a ground 2011 M8 head to work with PG.

Will advise on how it performs.

Happy Holidays!

pump gas

Tweaking meaning adding more fuel. You know we are just trying to get them to run on pump gas with out a head or timing key. Looks like best option is a head just like every one else is. Me personally I will opt to just add some race fuel.
The push box is working good and very rippy .

Buyer beware with anything Push! I have been seriously ripped off by Ken and his service is terrible. I am still waiting for him to give me my kit back as it was sent in to him for repair to the turbo iteself after an engine failure damaged the turbo. In addition to ignoring all forms of communication with me I now have a sled that was frustrating at best to tune last year that I feel I will have to dump to enjoy my winter this year. This is not fair and I am hoping to prevent anyone else from losing $5000 like I seem to have.

cartridge ?

So you need a center cartridge ?

You did not send you hole kit back did you?

MMSports,

What is the latest on how the $2995.00 kits are running. Do you think I could run one on my 2010 M8 at 6 PSI with Avgas (100 octane) at 0-4000ft?

[mmsports]

yes

They are running great just hard to get. Yes guys are real happy even the ones at 2000 ft.

Backcountry--what did you end up getting? I'm seeing 250HP under your name!

I didn't know what I needed and I had a second kit ordered that arrived just as the engine went in the first one. So I just took the turbo out of the new kit and installed it in the first sled after the engine was repaired. Then I spoke with Ken and told him I likely didn't want the second kit as I was having a lot of trouble with the first one. He suggested I send the entire kit back so he could get the turbo repaired then credit me back for the kit less the repair (center cartridge), then he could easily sell it as it was complete and in demand. I got the run-around from them all summer stating they were waiting for Tial to repair it? Why Tial...why not Garrett? All I know is that they will not speak to me and have not shipped my kit back with or without a repaired Turbo. Real quality customer service. He will never build a reputation this way.

Pretty sure I'm going to do a cutler stage II. if you take off the cold air intake & clutching he's at $4425 for a race kit that I KNOW works well.

It's just REALLY hard to argue with 2 years of not touching a THING on a big HP race gas sled. I haven't talked to a single RG owner that has had the kind of luck we've had with cutler's setup, so why mess with a good thing. I got more than expected for my sled, so I'm gonna have dale pull the sled...

(yep, another short track...)
Out of the crate, put the turbo, oil delete & running boards on, and maybe do a re-valve of the floats, then ship it to my door. Just got to find some skis, and get a thrasher hood so I can pull that purdy green one & put it in the shed!

Also gonna pull the 43" arms & get some fastlane arms. (and of course about 50 more lbs of weight loss, most of which I have sitting here)

The 2011 comes with better valving in the shocks.
