Dont see a turbo. Maybe they are giving up on the turbo, and going big bore.

Not sure what how much of gain 50cc would get ya, but if the price was close to an NA maybe. A 900 NA isn't going to keep up with 850 turbo. Definitely would not take a first year 900 from anyone.

I think a person would have to see the hp and tq numbers but after 5-6000' just can't see a 900 sticking near a factory turbo on a straight pull where rider talent is not really needed.

No but it's not supposed to. Just a little more kick than before. Like you say 50cc is piss all. I'm still on an 800 axys and it's not exactly a dog. Straight pulls isn't where its at for me anyways, I spend most days in the trees where WOT doesn't get used much. Rather have fast revving snappy power, same reason I don't want an 850, compared to the 800 they're slow to wind up. And If I wanted straight line power I'd probably buy a winder

sounds like you need a skidoo. their 850 responds way faster than the 800

I honestly have not rode a doo 800 and 850 back to back to compare. Polaris is definitely not that way. Not sure if it's just the lightweight crank in my 800 or a combo of everything in that engine but It's my favorite mill from any manufacturer to date.
