It would definitly kick a Vmax4's
on gas mileage. Probably has a 2 gallon tank and still better range.silverrocket

RX1 Turbo
Silverrocket
It's got close to 18,000 miles on it. Had it since it was brand new. The sled had 11000 klms when I installed the turbo. I had one breakdown with it at 15000 klms. It was my fault, I tought I could run 14 psi of boost on pump gas. It runs at 12 psi with a head shim with no problems. Did a couple 2000 klm trips this winter with no problems. Fuel consumption is 15 to 17 miles to the gallon (imperial) on hard pack trail and a top speed of 128 miles (GPS) per hour with a 136 inch cobra track. Never tested top speed on ice. Here is what I have on it: MCX Rear Mount Turbo, AD Boivin Xpert 136 inch suspension with DTR,Hartman Tunnel extension,Rear Mount Cooler,Simmons Skis,Ski Scratchers,45 inch front end,Ohlins Ski Shocks,Camoplast Cobra Track, Overspeed Sheave,Team Roller Clutch,Supertorquer Heavy Hammers,Boost Gauge,Temp Gauge,Fuel Pressure Gauge, Wideband Gauge,Vortech Bybass Valve,STM Billet Carb Caps,Holtzman Carb Springs,polished tunnel,Mountain Bars,Billet Fuel cap,Billet Brake Lever,PowerMadd Hand Guard,Chrome Windshield,Whal Drivers, Chrome Side Covers, painted silver with rainbow metalic.03viperguy said:

Yep That was me the viper was stolen and then i had nothing but troubles with both Zr 900's One got stolen the 2004 and recovered but the diamond drive blew twice that season and then i bought a 2003 zr 900 but wasnt happy with it so i bought the Apex GT at the end of January and now feel inspired to be back in the sport !03viperguy said:

the zr was just that unreliable?? I know my neighbor seems t ohave his fair share of issues but he also can't leave it alone, always trying to get it faster and faster and just figured it was made to be that bad

All the snowmobiles were equipped with a whip flag on this trip just to make it easier to recognized the sleds from the group. There is usually 15 to 20 snowmobiles on those trips and we seperate in groups of 4 snowmobiles. That flag only lasted one day on my sled.03viperguy said:
