this sled has 1800 plus miles on it 1400 with the turbo. it started having some bad bottom end throttle issues on the weekend. it has a bad bog and stutters for about 5 seconds then cleans up. after that if i keep it above 5000 rpm its very responsive. i limped it thru the weekend and got it home thinking it was reeds. i tore it apart last night and they seem intact. i have some video and pics i will post asap.

im no expert but with a 2 stroke your always going to have some oil buildup there. Oils heavy, and will drop unless you have a perfect stream of fast air that will keep it suspended. I may be totally wrong, so correct me if i am. U would have to be burning %100 efficient to burn that oil out of the incoming stream of air/oilmix.

makes sense, just seemed excessive to me. ive replaced reeds before just havent on a turbo'd sled. ive cleaned it up and used silicone and locktite. havent had time to test it yet.
