600 turbo's

Why isn't there more 600 turbo's? This thing looks fun as hell! Awesome power to weight ratio I bet.

The power would be close to a 800. And with the added turbo and stuff the weight would be the same.

i actually have the components to build a 600 rmk turbo. It was on a 2008 and it was big fun until my motor went kaboom. I am not mechanically able to keep one of these on the snow so it sits in a box.

I would think the biggest stumbling block for most is the reasoning of why to start with a small motor when you could start with a big motor and build more power. Turbo kit is the same price. Off boost torque is considerably more with the bigger twin.

However, I would think wth how responsive the smaller twins are the little boosted motors would be a lot of fun. One of the funniest machines I ever built was a older 500SS ported and bored to a 662. Was right there with any 800, but the throttle response was considerably better.

the 600 is the same weight as the 800..and the smaller motor blows up sooner.

Actually the 600 is lighter then the 800 plus that's the same bottom end as a m7 and those were great motors. Good enough for cutler to make a dragon cat 1000 billet top end for it so I'm sure it will handle the power. I used to own a m6 and studied every way possible to get the most power out of that engine.

I talked with absolute power a few Yeats back. Could have got the 800ho kit and pur it in the 600ho rev.

Said with 50-50 or av gas , 190 +or - hp cranked up.

About 170 at 5 psi.

Said he did a few and the snappy was just stupid fun.
