would be willing to bet its made by Skinz since the sled is already a moving bilboard for their products. just a guess though.

Christopher,

Yes, we built two turbo sleds for Yamaha 2 or 3 years ago and this cover is one of the things we came up with to cover the turbo.
We had 4 or 5 prototypes of the cover built.
We sold the remaining three over the last two years.
This picture is one of the sleds we built for Yamaha in which we did a deal with them to buy them back.
We ended up buying only one back and a new MTX to build for a customer into a Black.

Anyway, you like the cover?

Any MPI Turbo owners that would be interested in one of these Heat Shields??

 

[tmk50]

What is the total cost of that setup and what is the weight savings?

 

[christopher]

not a clue as yet.
Waiting to hear back from SKINZ.

Will this work with any rear mount turbo?

 

[christopher]

Honestly have no idea.
Might, might not!
Only way to know for sure would be to do some test fittings.
If I can convince SKINZ to do a small production run we can see if they will fit on any other turbos.

Count me in for one...depending on price.

 

[christopher]

Cool.
Hoping to talk Skinz into making 5 of them.

If it would fit an mcx I would buy one, it looks like it should.

 

[christopher]

it certainly "Looks" like it would fit several of the rear mount turbos, but there is NO way to know without actually doing a test fit.
