I will admit I got carried away. I too am excited for what the 2013 season and product has in store. I hope all builders do well and can keep the shop doors open for new customers.
I just like the way shane put the product to the test before offering to the public, its smart business.
Sorry if I offended anyone on this post.
Happy Sledding!
No problemo.

Realbass keep us posted. I like everything about this kit but for me I'll wait a season. Being so far away you have some brass ordering this kit. I don't even think there's a Push dealer in the Pacific NW right now. Push probably lost their best dealer out west with Mountain Magic shutting it's doors. Wish you all the luck, that thing should rip.
That says it i guess there is no loyalty in this industry
Realbass congrats on the turbo kit i would have went a different route but to each there own i learned early on to get a turbo from someone u can take it back to to fix it unless your very well educated in turbos

No...I didn't say that. I know there there is Vipec on OTHER brands of sleds also. What I was saying is that I thought HM had been granted POLARIS exclusivity by Gino at Vipec.

ok..i don;t want to stereotype...but come on..a Gino belongs beside Marlon Brando in Godfather..

Scott, i just don't understand where that "exclusivity" deal is coming from?? it is completely out of nowhere. how come your understanding was Shane's being polaris exclusive when last year was only polaris ECUs distributed(you knew other dealers had the polaris ECU right)?
anyway, we have the arctic cat 800 and 1100 turbo ECU in house for final testing later this month, it is going to be an exciting year!!!
want to clarify a few things also about the push turbo kit. after a 7 hour beating on the engine dyno at bikeman, under extreme conditions, and 3 full gas tank burnt, this kit is perfectly ready to hit the snow. during those 7 hours, not a drop of oil coming from nowhere, no exhaust leak whatsoever, this throttle before turbo kit has been tested for 2 years now on the arctic cat by Ken and this polaris kit is a simple application's extension.
now that the 2 stroke tune infrastructure is done from all last year testing, we can get any turbo kit going in less then a day(tuning)....remember boost is boost guys, from one kit to the other,same thing.
i am happy to have Hm turbo(shane and levi are awsome to work with) and push turbo (ken is busy!! but a realy nice guy to work with also) including the ECU to there kits. both guy craftmanship is second to none, it is up to the customer now to decide wich one is the best....but i know for having tested both kits, they are great kits and a person cannot go wrong with both of them.

.......i am a fighter for sure, but i will not kill someone!!!happy season guys!!
Thanks for clearing that up.
It seems your dyno is stingy, 200HP from a kit that looks this cool and costs what it costs and at 8lbs seems light. Have you tested competitors kits on your dyno for comparison? I know you can make a dyno say whatever you want it to by "corrected HP" too but same dyno same conditions is what I am looking for.
give it three months, there is no correction factor on the snow.Thanks for clearing that up.

3 tanks of fuel in 7 hours?
So roughly 30 gallons of fuel in 7 hours?
Hmmm......
lol, glad im not the only one that has a good laugh every time precision puts up numbers.

Dyno that thing all you want…isn’t going to do you any good until it’s on the snow. I feel sorry for the first customer who bought a kit from someone who hasn’t had it on snow yet. I was under the impression, HM was going to do the polaris stuff.
Let’s just say Ford/GM/ or Dodge designed a new diesel and all they did was Dyno it for hours, turned around and sold that truck without hooking up a load to it and all the sudden it doesn’t work…what would the recall be on that…the government would be bailing them out again (everyone expect Ford any way).
Therein lays the problem…Shane and whoever did their homework without putting a product out to sell and maybe that’s why their’s cost a little more money…they spent more of their OWN money on a clean product. PUSH is probably a great kit, no doubt it looks clean and well thought out, but you are comparing apples to oranges.
And if “boost was boost” there wouldn’t be 20 different turbos on the market for sale.
You guys have a GREAT product and it will change the snowmobiling world, but to me the way it was released wasnt respected.
Skadi proved how well it reinvented turboing a 2 stroke.
