Is this thing as big of PITA as it sounds like?
Do you ever get some good days in, or mostly just fixing it?

trying to decide between factory boost, or aftermarket.

Thx

I own both. Factory is the only way. Days on the mountain with good snow are limited. Dont wreck them for yourself and your buddies

Lol that would be like applying the brakes - ain't nobody got time for that - ask anyone that knows me - I'm a sucker for punishment - took me a while to get the kingcat dialed too - but I got it there - it can get a little satisfying when the dinosaur out performs the new sleds - might handle like a rock lol - but out perform - ahhh yessir!!!


when my sidemount isnt haning from a helicopter. It would run right beside yours all day long. Half day forsure

Don't listen to this guy - 8lbs is the way to go - it just might take awhile to get it dialed - just always have a backup - there's a reason why the sled decks extend - backup beauty - never a wrecked day if you plan for it - might just need a quick dbl down to the parking lot - sometimes your buddies can be hot garbage and leave u on your own - but that's why they have the Facebook site "nobody sleds alone"

CERB only pays so much you know. So looking for a sled that can make it through a trip or 2 without a complete rebuild.

**** happens, but if you break down every trip you best have some real good friends!

I like how you blow everything outta proportion - just a complete rebuild - you and my brother would be great riding together - you 2 sound the same - negative side of everything and every little hiccup is just the end of the world

Haha my brother use to get pissed towing me and my mod sled off the trail when we wouldnt even make it to the Alpine. Just trying to avoid that. Still looking at a turbo rmk though.
