This add will keep getting longer as I have more time to update, and add pictures... so keep checking if your interested. and sorry for the spelling- trying to think about everything is killing the spelling. sorry for the incoherent post, its hard to list everthing in a normal order.. to much done to it!!
Base sled is a 2005 RT chassis
Motor is 03 rx1 with a headshim and adjusted cam timing for boost, just about to click over 2000 miles, so dang near new for a 4 stroker.
Turbo setup is a non intercooled homebrew sidemount running a mitsubishi turbo. as far as tuning, The thing runs pretty darn good, I ride it all day long and it runs smooth, tuning for elevation is little to none, and you dont have to open the hood to go from 3500-10000 feet, just turn a small dial.
Runs yamaha clutchs and stock rx1 belts. setup by leipheimer yamaha in butte for clutching. the sled is a BLAST to ride, turns heads like you wouldnt beleive.
It definately needs a few more things to get it to where I would like it to be, just I dont have the time or the money to keep getting it to where I want it.
Things it needs-
avid drivers- track has to be really tight to prevent ratcheting wityh the current drivers(with a good offer I will install a set of avids, they are made about 5 miles from my house)
redone or just beefed up motor mounts- its eating belts pretty fast lately, Mine started to twist over the course of the season.
The drivers make me have to run the track so tight and the limiters in the keep the track from ratcheting, so this makes it handle like crap, and is super nose heavy. and the twisting mounts are a good design, just need to be upgraded and squared back up, it was getting around 300 miles to a belt, then started to plummet after the tunning was dialed in.. and the primary sits visually angled in the chassis.. again, I know the problem, and how to fix it. just no longer have the time or space to work on it. I used to work on it in my parents nice heated shop.. that no longer exists.. so that really kills motivation as well. building a sled in the alley behind the apartment really isnt that exciting. All of the things like grip warmers and such work, the speedo is also adated and works. the only part of the stock yami gauge that doesnt work is the elctric fuel level. But having a speedo is nice for referencing tuning sucesses and grip warmers are really nice to have, even on a mod sled!! As for the boost and fuel, I run 91 all day long at 10-12# of boost. turbo is also a tunnel dump, so it isnt loud at all considering the total lack of muffling.
Random list of aftermarket parts it has that arent custom peices.
Simmons gen 1 skis
ice age 162 rails
8" two wheel kit
hyvo chain and gears in the chaincase
large sidepanel vents and vent in the center of the front hood
liquid filled boost gauge
air fuel gauge(sort of busted, but works)
summit inline fuel pump
mallory 1:1 rising rate fuel pressure regulator
STM billet carb caps and T's (a must for boosting the carbs consistantly)
As far as pricing... make me an offer(if the offer starts with a 5 its yours). its a really good sled with lots of $$ parts put into it to get it right as far as boosting and such, just needs someone who is willing to get the details ironed out, I also am willing to help out well after the sale, Always willing to help explain what I have learned to keep you going. Feel free to PM me or give me a call at 406-871-0955 Nick
