wrong hp on2010 800 cats ???

Our local cat shop said the 800s are closer to 154 hp , not 160 as advertised????????

 

[BIGGDAWG]

That sounds very reasonable.. Either way.. 154HP is a very strong 800 stock..

I have already been in side the engine.. It is a sleeping giant waiting to be unleashed..

It will be a great sled, especially when "tweeked" properly..

Can't wait for the snow to fly...

10-12 more ponies is still a pretty healthy increase from 09! But ya it does suck when your expecting 160+. BTW the name "Mad Dragon" doesn't help your credibility lol.

what will be stonger

Who will win the power reviews? I believe both polaris and cat will have great engines in 2010. However after what I have heard from SLP is that Polaris 800s are going to shock alot of Polaris owners as to what they get for power and torque !! Torque numbers are great!!!! I have both cat and polaris and I am looking forward to raceing my cat against my wifes assault!!!!

Let me say that I wouldn't be surprised if cat snudged on their hp findings, but I also wouldn't be surprised to find out that altitude has a lot to do with some of the hp losses.

It will all come out on the hill this winter. HP is a good benchmark to go by, but true "Western" powder riding is a combination of far more variables than just horsepower. My Nytro has BIGGGGG Horsepower!!!!, bigger than the M8 will probably ever have. But in the boondocks, it is a different story.

Dont get caught up the in the "he said, she said" the proof is always in the pudding and it is almost pudidng time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Has anyone dynoed a 2010 800??

Has anyone dynoed a 2010 800??

D&D has. If you take 3-4 hp off, this may be right?

Thanks Bear! Here in scandinavia it will produce 151 and 97torque.just like the 800R.

 

[mad dragon]

At what elevation sea level?????

Cat never claimed 163 the after market test did cat calmed 10% more witch would be like 156 but independent dyno's 3 of them i do believe claimed close to 163. I think that its going to be fun what ever the numbers are.

 

[bluebear]

Dynotech's pre-production F8 made 163.4 hp @ 8200 RPM and 106.0 lb-ft @ 7900/8000 with a motor temp of 130*. It made a couple less HP with a water temp in the 160* range. Interesting article on his website.

I am surprised more shops haven't been tossing production sleds on the dyno's and reporting findings. I guess its still September.

Lets see when dynotech resurses dyno a productions sled ... 156hp is very good but in real life riding the new ac 800 possible can produce 160hp depending on quality on the fuel.
