They better get a tune. My pro is pretty close!
I smell Hurricane tune, could it be true...
One of the changes i'm doing is installing a Shockwave, this will allow for more/better tuning at the clutch, i also have a new ratio.
My goal is to have this sled consistent at 65mph with the current stock tune. So i need to pull another 2-3 more mph to get that.
The argument for a 4S is I will be on 3 engines before he needs to change his oil. We went up a against a aero charger T3 174 with baker skid that weekend and smoked it too.That’s not much of an argument for a 4S...better get that thing some HP! I don’t care what anyone says, super hard to beat a juiced up Evolution Built Cat a few years ago....
Ill have to make it out your way this season and do some comparisons, be nice to get on a level playing field and do some real world tests. See if these flashed ecu's are worth it.

One other argument is resale. Your turbo Axys is forsale, your going to take a $10000 hit or more on that sled. Only way you will get decent money is if you waffle it. Not everyone makes farming money, a lot of sledders only have oilfield income.That’s not much of an argument for a 4S...better get that thing some HP!

Here’s Yamaha’s next step to light weight 4 stroke technology ...get rid of the cam shaft gears and chain

I believe that there is much misconception out there about the new mountain Yamaha and that’s understandable. Most that have no experience with Yamaha believe the Sidewinder is just another 4stroke Viper that was rebadged by Yamaha for sell’s. That is the farthest thing from true. The Sidewinder and the Viper might look alike but are very different animals. The advancements in the new Winder with the engine alone has changed perceptions with many.
That would be like saying the T3 and G4 are basically the same and basically a G4 is a repaneled and rebadge T3. LOL
The day of the $30-$50,000 big power is something of the past, todays Sidewinder will put to shame yesterday’s monster turbo’s.
What is the general consent when it come's to BOV's on the Winder. I'm looking into possibly replacing mine before it fail's.
Nice set up lunch Box, the aluminum piping will also help cool. You custom built the pipes?
Ya I used to do custom fabrication at a automotive performance shop a long time ago, so busted out the welder again. Didn't like the silicone piping that was offered so just decided to do this. At the time no one was offering aluminum piping.

Painted the intercooler pipes black after final fitment, but here is how some aluminum piping looks.
That looks like like a Tial BOV no?
