R44guy, what can are you running with the bikeman pipe? Did you do any runs with diffrent cans with the PCV hooked up?
Top Notch, We only ran the factory polaris can, we had already tested most all of the aftermarket cans including SLPs, BMPs, Skins, MBRP, HCS, etc. and all of them lost power on the dyno but they were lighter and louder but sadly enough lost power on the D8 CFI. The PCV has not helped in regards to add power from any of the cans from what we have seen on the D8's either, but obviously the PCV has helped with fixing the lean spots and improving the power band. I will let Monte chime in on the tuning in the mid range and how well the PCV tunning helped to change a 6000 rpm bog to make a longer wider power band pull.

The tune from Jim at DTR was very good and Jim tested it at 162hp which is close to what we had but BMP and DTR use two different style dynos which helps explain the difference as well.
I believe they had the DTR bikeman map installed, but wasn't producing well between 6-7000rpm probably due to the variances in the ECU flash. Sounds like the pipe was developed using the original 08 mapping so depending on the ECU flash I'm sure most sleds would still benifit from the addition of the PCV. Joey did some very minor adjustments of 2-4% in that RPM range with the PCV. I was really amazed that it recovered almost all the HP just from some very seamingly minor adjustments. It showed that he really knew what he was doing, but also how critical the fueling is on this motor. We hit DET at one point from going just a couple of % too far, but he remedied that with just a couple of key strokes.
Another item worth noting is that torque increased and maintained at higher rpm with the BMP pipe. Torque pulls the weight so it was also good to see that.
Ok I spent this morning at BMP Bikeman Performance in Osceola, WI. I invited the Full Monte from the forum to come out and he checked out the dyno session today so dobnt be surprised if he posts more information about the dyno session. It was a pleasure to meet Monte in person and I had a great time talking sleds with him today.
Joey Strub at Bikeman did all of the dyno & tuning work and he is like a walking dictionary. We had some good test and tune results.
1. The MTNTK / PMS Polaris the fix kit did make 5-6 hp more than the sled did stock by the dyno results. (Feel free to look up my orignal posts from last year when the sled was new and stock with the 2010 updates.)
2. My sled does not have the 2010 or april ECU map flash it has the orignal 08/09 flash and the orignal 08/09 cylinder head with the 2010 updated jug/cylinder and the fix kit as well as the EV hoses plugged.
3. The HP sky rocketed when we put the BMP pipe on the sled by almost 12.9 hp and 5.1 ft of torque in file BMP data5910-1 and BMP data5910-2
4. Almost all of the pulls were at 112-115 degrees except for one we did at 130 to see how the dyno numbers showed for the redneck racing gizmo and sorry to report both the torque and horse power dropped down to 143.3 hp and 96.7 ft of tq in file BMP data5906-1 and BMP data5906-2. We used the display on the sled to verify engine coolant temps for every pull.
5. After the BMP pie was installed we installed my PCV with Jim's tune from DTR for the BMP Pipe and orignal 08/09 map and ended up with some very good dyno numbers and then we tweaked his tune a little bit and got a little more mid range and a tiny bit more on the top with a little less tq.
Last but not least I will post picks and then the individual dyno pull sheets besides the graph post after post until they are all posted. If you have any questions please post. If you want copies of the dyno sheets emailed to you feel free to pm me or email r44guy@gmail.com.
Thanks for the post. I looked through your dyno sheets, did you dyno stock pipe and can with PCV? It looked to me that the only PCV run was made with the BMP pipe.
Was the 130 degree run done with the BMP pipe or stock pipe?
Good to hear positive results sounds like your about 9hp above last year... Wow that pipe makes power at high rpm thats a good thing for track speed and top end but can u pull 8,400rpm with heavier weights? Thats a broken in motor too is it not, perfect now u know what u have on day to day basis with the new kit.
Heres a kit using a taller stock oem piston, with less taper so less rock in the cylinder, and our billit head and shim adapter with gaskets. Set up for turbos and high elevation mtn riding giving more acceleration, power and reliability. Can also be set up for low elevation or lake racers as well.
With different compression ratios for whatever application you may have.

R44GUY,have you done a compression test yet just wondering what your getting with the 09 head.Put the kit in mine today 09 block,10 cyl and update head,nice and quiet now and very responsive throttle.From first start-up we let it warm to 122 degrees,shut it down and did a compression test got 135 both sides thats 10lbs more than old motor in it's prime.Will take it out on Sat to put some miles on it.![]()
What elevation did you perform this test?
It's about 2000ft around here.
