Tight tree riding with the TSS turbo xm

[Destroyer]

Some helmet cam footage from my tree banging weekend in Castelgar. The TSS turbo is working awesome, and the xm handles so good.

Sorry about the hiss in the first three minutes. I couldn't get rid of it. And if the first 1:10 of tree riding is a too boring for you, just go to 1:10 and watch from there. Pretty intense after that. Turn up your favorite music on your own media player, or just listen to the sweet sound of a boosted etec.

That thing sounds like it runs flawless. If I go turbo, TSS will be the kit for sure!

TSS is for sure the kit to go with. It runs perfect.

Thanks everyone! I got rid of you tubes image stabilization. If it had dumb black lines moving on the top and bottom they are gone now.

Awesome vid, thanks. Are you running straight avgas?

Straight av gas stock skid and track 7lbs boost

Wicked vid man! What can you safety crank the boost up to in AV with the Etec? Is your sled a 163? The Boost-It fuel system sure is the ticket!

Safely??? lol that is funny.... My buddy sent a rod through his case at 7psi in 150miles

I've got 600 miles on mine at 10lbs with no problems. (Knock on wood)

Things break, I would classify that as an isolated incident.

10lbs is the limit on AV gas. It's pretty rare that it would go in 150miles but it happens. BRP's rod bearings do suck. Turbo or no turbo they are just a part waiting to fail. Other than those rod bearings going when they want, the ETECs are awesome. micku's shop sled went over 4000 km before that rod bearing went. Seen a couple stockers go at around the 1500 mile mark. It happens.

Awesome! Hopefully someone comes out with something to strengthen that weak point on the Etecs. What est HP do the Etecs make at 10psi?

 

[Destroyer]

Well over 250 I'm told. Feels like it that's for sure.

 

[etecturbo]

Im running 10lbs on a etec its right in the 235hp mark....

Bad a$$! Must haul the mail! I run about 315 on my race gas Nytro at 21 psi but it's 100 pounds heavier. I'm guessing the power to weight would feel about the same. Plus the XM would be way less tiring.

Huh?? Read again. They're haulin' mail through the trees. You're Air mail.

7lbs boost on av gas for only 205hp? Blown engine at 150 miles? Rods gone on stockers in 1500kms? Lucky to get 4000kms? Made it to 600 miles..touch wood??? That's ugly! You're sled's going to still be running strong with 30,000kms on it.

Your sled can lose weight, you can put in Wiseco low comp. pistons and run pump fuel, but you can't change ugly! (....imagine lifting a dead xm out of a tree hole, on the side of a mountain...in 23 feet of snow. It doesn't matter how light and nimble the sled is, I'm a pretty big guy and I couldn't even drag the track out of there, let alone the track attached to a dead sled.)

....7lbs boost does not feel about the same as 21lbs boost and 315hp. If you haven't already done so...put on a 174" Camoplast. You'll be able to drag an xm through the trees with your sled. ----Okay, maybe I'm exagerating a bit. ?? Nope. You will be able to drag an xm along behind you.

Wow...look at that, both you and the Doo guys are gonna slam me down now! And I deserve it. There's no doubt...I've seen some pretty impressive nimbleness from the TSS xm'ers and the Aerocharger Pro Rmk guys, but you're running a pretty capable platform too.

P.S. You're avatar picture is lying on it's side, it needs to be rotated 90 degrees....on every 315hp Nytro that I've seen, the skis are pointing up not down.

EZDUZZIT.
