I just wanted to make a little write up about my experience with the guys over at boost it and there product.
This year was my first year on a turbo sled and at first when I bought my m8000 a turbo was at the very bottom of my list as I really wasn't sure about it. I've heard a lot of horror stories and how unreliable they are, how people always have problems and can never get them to run right. Over the summer I researched every brand, talked to numerous people about there experiences with turbo sleds any problems they had and so on. No one brand is perfect and they all offer something alittle different. But through all my questioning and research Neil and Tj at boost it always had a solid reputation and happy customers. When a person steps into there shop you can see the level of pride and craftsmanship they put into there products and I am extremely happy with my choice to run these guys turbo system.
When I finally was able to get out on a ride I was blown away by the performance of this thing. I know when I was looking at kits you always heard this is a "pull and go" kit but I know no kit is pull and go there's always gonna be a little extra to do just having a turbo. But I believe this is as "pull and go" as it gets. I don't have a ton of seat time on it yet or a ton of experience with turbo snowmobiles but I can say I put it through quite a shakedown ride and it never made a hiccup and had a smile on my face for my entire trip. Throttle response is crisp and it pulls hard around 6-7lbs all day. I had a lot people tell me you gotta ride a turbo sled different you have to watch this and that and check everything all the time. I checked everything the first day and the end of the last day and never used oil or coolant all the bolts and clamps were tight but that was it I didn't ride any different maybe tried afew lines I maybe wouldn't have before but that's about it.
I'd like to thank Neil and Tj and the guys for letting me hang around and answer all my questions cause I know I had a ton of them.
