I believe the 'kits' are ready. BUT I would call Jack or Chris to find out.
I know of a few that are out running.
Sure a Turbo will out do a NA...But I didn't want a turbo...
Big bore - simpler, less head aches and lighter...

You running pump gas, or race mix? What did you pay for the 900?

Motor is set-up for pump premium.

I don't own one, but I got about an hour or so on one last Saturday. I loved it.
If I could afford one, i would do a big bore.

if you want pull and go, ZERO issues big bore 900....period. That being said i run the turbo, and after a bazillion clutch combos..lmao.. great fun sled. Pretty much a stocker under 4500 then crazy power under boost. it did however take a LOT to get the clutching spot on so it would pull hard with "snap" down low.(like 5 helix's,20 +springs,5 sets of weights and many many test days) And you better darn sure know how to tune/jet a turbo 2 stroke motor. I would guess about 200 ish hp at 12 psi at elevation.

Best deal is bout 4 hours labor its stock again for quick sale and turbo goes on new sled. 900 is forever as case is bored.

I would take a guess and say a carls 900 is about 180 ish "real" HP IMHO
