I would b interested about the fine print of said warranty. Seems like it is going to be a sled that is designed by eric (vohk). But is arcticat going to back the waaranty to the letter> two year and all that jazz

I have zero sources but this is just my guess...

boondocker is going to get cut a sweet deal on these M8's cuz they will buy a fist full at a time... then they are going to slap on these turbo kits like its going outa style and then resell the sleds for about 5000 more than what it cost them do buy the sled plus the turbo....

my guess is its a boondocker deal... not an AC deal... i doubt AC will have anything to do with those sleds after the walls on the creates get nailed shut... it will be a boondocker issue... and i hightly doubt any warranty will be available... maybe they might since there people will be doing the installing... but highly doubtful!

but non the less... the RTR (ready to ride) M8 turbo sounds nice... im installing a race gas turbo on my M8 as we speak... its no walk in the park i'll tell ya that... there have been more than a few 4 letter words come outa my mouth in that garage in the last 10 hrs lol

Well i can say that a freind of mine told me that there is going to be a turbo'd M8 come from cat next year and his parents have owned a cat dealership for like 30years or more.. He has told me before that this or that is coming and he has been right 9 out of 10 times.. just the rumor that they might be building the M next year around the snow pro chasis.. it's lighter and tougher.. Also rumor that doo will be producing a MTN version of there new 4stroke next year and you'll be able to order it with a turbo aswell..

Its a wait and see game as always. It wouldn't surprise me at all if Cat got into the Mountain Turbo market. It would be nice if the price was reasonable from the factory as well.

Chris's version is sweet as well

Burandt actually posted about this over on Snowest over a month ago
if cat does actually release this to the public w full warranty etc.....
ski doo, Yam & Poo better put their gloves up, cause its gonna get nasty

30g's though....that is some cake for a toy
but if you got the $$, then all the power to ya!

What iam seeing is a sled you can buy today if you want one so whats the big deal. I really doubt if you will ever see a two stoke turbo from factory, i could be wrong but If it does come from cat it will be quite different to address warrenty issues or possibly like race bikes with no warrenty.
Cat needs to build a new chassis the m series is OUTDATED.

i know with my sled never mind warrenty i couldn't get a recall letter for my race sled. "sorry sir we supplied speedwerx with the snowmobiles it's in the hands"
sounds like bd's deal and as posted above they will make a killing so you don't have to go get it installed yourself.
