Watercraft EFI

[sledstew]

Hello guys,
I have recieved alot of questions on how the 1400 is coming along so I threw this on youtube as a teaser, she is getting closer all the time.What you see is more than likely the worlds first EFI /turbo watercraft ever built. It needs some more tweeking for sure but its looking more promising all the time,this monster is making huge HP/Torque. This project has been in the making for just under 2 years with countless hours and help from several great guys in this industry (Bud,Ruth,Curt)!!!!!
I am witholding most details until the project is closer to being completed,right now we are having some spark issues but that should be cleared up in a week or so.More info to come ,hopefully the snow sticks around because my dyno cant handle it LOL!!!!!!!!!!!

That is indeed a "teaser". You kind of remind me of what Arctic Cat is doing with the 2012's.

More Jake!!!! Want to see more!!!!

Nope just a blackberry,you can add some full chassis pics if you want,none of the engine please.

You probably have a ton of work getting this projects done (not to mention $$) but I'm curious why so secretive on the engine-turbo-efi information? If you have your reasons that is cool but it would be nice to see your ideas.

Do you plan on profiting as some point from this project? (profits not a swear word in my book) If so how?

You are correct in saying lots of time and money involved,going to try and develop a little better EFI system for the Watercraft based engines later on down the road. I am planning on possibly making a few kits a little different for some guys who have the watercraft engines for more testing . The motor runs like a top but we are having some issues spinning past 7500 rpm,figured out it was the coils not saturating fast enough. This project has made 7 psi boost and pulled enough fuel on 7 psi to support roughly 450hp,needless to say it is a rocket,thats why its named Project Deathwish. The EFI system we built is very forgiving and runs as clean or cleaner than the best EFI you have ever seen. The system has some very awesome features that have not been seen in the Sled industry yet. Like I stated earlier ,it took several bright minds to get where we are today and a little more R&D is still a big factor in getting it perfect.
