New pro rmk or used TM8

[Destroyer]

I've pretty much pulled the pin on a used PG Turbo M8. I just keep second guessing myself saying I should maybe buy a new pro rmk and just ride it stock. This will be my first turbo sled. I really want to go turbo but can't afford a new one. Let me know what you guys think!

 

[gibsons]

what year of M8 and what type of turbo?

 

[CUSO]

Myself, if I was on a budget, and had that choice, I would be going Pro. Just for warranty, longevity, and handling alone (hassle free).... If I had deeper pockets, I might think different. Sorry, that's my .02$ I'm sure the turbo will be fun!

2011 hcr boondocker pg with the ebc. 1300 miles

u say u can't afford a new turbo so your gonna by used...The sled has 1300miles was it turbo from day one,how much longer before engine rebuild not to mention how much to run a turbo for a day VS a stock sled..Also what do your buddies ride,if your the only guy with a turbo your probably gonna go places they can't...As CUSO said how can u beat warranty,plus if you want u can turbo the Pro next year for probably $4000-$6000 not sure how much a turbo is really worth...Good luck with what u decide.

I would go with the pro, you could be just getting someone elsea headache

 

[polarisdragon800]

Go with the pro. No worries just ride.if you want more power you can always add a pipe/can. Power commander, and a higher compression head. Still will be reliable

whats the price difference? thats what its all goin to come down to, if you buy the tm8 how much are you "saving"? tm8 sure would be a blast tho!

 

[Destroyer]

about the same price.

 

[Turbo-North]

This one?? Looks like a good deal. M8 is worth almost that alone. Turbo is anotheer $ 5000.00 or so.
This was the one i was actually thinking of. Guess i need to put my glasses on and read what i post LOL !!

 

[CUSO]

Like Stoller99 mentioned.

You buy used, you never know what the TRUE history of the sled is.

New, you are an original owner, and have no surprises..

 

[catsass]

Once you ride a turbo , you will never go back

 

[MOMMA]

Oh man I'm laughing.. Sorry Destroyer.. I should have looked at the poster of the thread! lmao!.. I know the answer to my question.....

Ya ok my hair is kind of blonde now... just a coincidence...

I had the same problem. Was looking at a tm8. But went with a stock newer one. Same money. Biggest thing it would have been cool and all but if u get way up there and get stuck ect.... None of my buddys I ride with could get to me. Went stock for the ease of get on it and ride it

 

[powderpilot]

If I was going used, I'd buy a good used stock sled then put the turbo on for about the same money. Good install is such a huge factor in how turbo'd sleds perform and hold up. I'd be leary about buying someone else's problems on a used TM8.

Do you know who's turbo you are buying because I am pretty sure I know who's sled this is and he is a great guy. Who did the turbo?

Id go turbo, its what i should have done and im regreting it

 

[Timber_12]

If you can't afford to burn a $100 bill in front of you, stay away from a turbo. You won't be able to fix the motor if it burns down.
