So you want to put a turbo on a carbed mountain sled for riding in Iowa?

I hope corn sales were really good this year because this is going to cost you a lot of $$$$$.

The reason you can't find anything is because carbed sleds do not like turbos. Carbed motor + turbo + no experience = boom!!!!

A carbed two stroke turbo sled is a: "If you have to ask..." sort of question.

But to answer "what you really need"

All you really need is: A turbo, a welder, some scrap metal, a fuel pump, an adjustable fuel pressure regulator, some various lines and fittings, a few jets, a few plugs, and to know what you are doing.

Edit: Missed the oil pump...

there is no kit.

contact the turbo boys if you are ACTUALLY serious about putting the time and money commitment into having a customized turbo kit for your sled.

it will be the biggest learning experience of your life.

Really modman? Really? I'm just interested in buying your turbo kit, but obviously if you are not interested in my business I'll leave you alone. I didn't ask for you to be a smart ass, I simply asked a question. And Yes, I do know how to fix them since I have been snowmobiling out west for the past 10 years, along with having the skills, knowledge, and time to work on these types of things.
But hey, thanks for pushing me away from maybe buying something of yours, but the more I look at it, the more of a piece of sht it looks like!!!!

Really clayried19? Really? LOL I'm happy to help once you've answered the following questions:

where you plan on hooking your pressure tubes for the carbs?
what type and size turbo you are planning to run?
what boost level are you looking at?
do you want a race gas or pump gas sled?
Will you need an external oil pump for the turbo?
how you plan on keeping the exhaust pipe from cracking in half?
what BOV you are planning to use?
what auxiliary fuel pump you are planning on using to feed the additional fuel required?
what fuel pressure regulator are you running?
Do you plan on using powerjets in the carbs?
Are you going to use an intercooler?
What airbox are you using?
Will you keep the DPM or just remove it all?
Will you be using the stock clutch (probably not a good idea)?
What about traction?
What gears are you planning to run?
Will you be running an EGT or an A/F gauge to monitor the motor?
do you have a good supply of pistons for this sled?
do you plan on re-jetting all the fuel circuits for the boost or just the main circuit?
where are you tying in for power for the extra electrical?

And I have no clue WTF you are talking about, because I don't have a turbo "for sale". So I don't know what "piece of sht" of mine you are talking about. I ride carbed sleds and I would never put a turbo on a carbed motor because I have never seen one work for more than a day without some sort of catastrophic failure.

So you and everyone else can call me a smart ass all you want, I'm soooo sorry that my reply came across with sarcasm :d but I'm not going to sugarcoat it, we've responded to at least 50 of these same threads.

Usually people that have a history and knowledge of turbos have done some research about putting boost on a 11 yr old carbed sled. You should look up the boondockers website and review the turbo installation instructions for an EFI sled. Multiply those by about 3 times and that's how much work it is to install a turbo on a carbed sled.

now Bart, why do you get yourself into this kind of crap. ole clayreid 19 has been riding for 10 + yrs. looks like since he was 9 hehe. anyone riding a 2000 summit would probably never put a turbo on it, sled is only $3000. like they say speed costs money how fast you wanna go kid. must be into the corn a little heavy i'd think.

Modman, I'm interested in purchasing your supercharger kit for my XLT. Please send me all parts so I can install and tune it all myself and a 3 year bumper to bumper warranty. Thank you for your time.










Really.

where you plan on hooking your pressure tubes for the carbs? To the carbs. Duh.
what type and size turbo you are planning to run? A big one.
what boost level are you looking at? Over nine thousand.
do you want a race gas or pump gas sled? Race gas is cooler
Will you need an external oil pump for the turbo? Only if the turbo is sticking out of the hood.
how you plan on keeping the exhaust pipe from cracking in half? Bungie straps.
what BOV you are planning to use? Not sure what armoured personnel carriers have to do with a supercharged xlt.
what auxiliary fuel pump you are planning on using to feed the additional fuel required? I don't use an auxiliary fuel tank so this is a non-issue.
what fuel pressure regulator are you running? A good one.
Do you plan on using powerjets in the carbs? Fock yes. Power baby!
Are you going to use an intercooler? Sure why not.
What airbox are you using? I gutted my airbox.
Will you keep the DPM or just remove it all? Sure.
Will you be using the stock clutch (probably not a good idea)? Dude, I have a comet clutch. It's pretty awesome.
What about traction? I was planning to buy a 189" 3".
What gears are you planning to run? Steel ones.
Will you be running an EGT or an A/F gauge to monitor the motor? Uhh. Yes.
do you have a good supply of pistons for this sled? Duh, it's got three built into it.
do you plan on re-jetting all the fuel circuits for the boost or just the main circuit? I jet once and usually just leave it for the day.
where are you tying in for power for the extra electrical? 100 foot extension cord should do the trick.

Way to go guys, you probably scared him away from the S&M family now. He's just looking for turbo experience so he could turbo his corn husker next harvest season (I have watched Gluton for Punishment, and those annuall corn husking competitions can be tough),:d







Are there even hills in Iowa?
