My ski has wet pipe, ada head, tdr water box stock carbs with FPP jetting, everything else is on my build page, i was wondering if anyone else was bogging down wile doing tail stands and nose stabs if not on the gas well enough to keep that water from filling up the waterbox and chamber of the pipe and if there is anyway to fix this, or just keep on trhe throttle with stuff like this.

Dual exhaust.

[SXR-FOREVER]

single front exhaust! No more bog for me.

[Proformance1]

They do that really bad with the wet pipe on no front exhaust. Also watch it because you can overheat the motor from doing tail stands for too long. Mine hit about 300 and some degrees in about 10 sec. I don't think it will hurt, but it is definitely not going to help.

[5810]

Mine does it too, 180psi compression from milled head helped a little. what I do now is
when tail standing I try to keep the rear hood intakes out of water, if they go under just for a sec it start to load up mad & it takes full throttle to pull out, other wise it bogs minimum. When nose stabbing, as soon as I enter the water I let go of the throttle this keeps the carbs from loading up a lot, I let the skis boyince(cant spell the word) raise me to the top of the water & the power out.

[wnb800]

how loud is it with the side exhaust?

[Kawi 800]

5810 ski looks awesome.



Yea will it be much louder then the wetpipe and tdr is now out the rear? Not that noise is a problem lol

[SXR-FOREVER]

Mine does it too, 180psi compression from milled head helped a little. what I do now is

Hang on to that throttle and sub straight in!!!!:headbang:

how loud is it with the side exhaust?

Loud. I'm going to run one of my pissers into the outlet to quiet it down. It might not be loud to you guys, I just am not a fan of obnoxious skiis.

[Kawi 800]

Was it alot louder then when you had it out the rear?

[SXR-FOREVER]

Yes.

[kx454]

mine is pretty loud with front only and the dry pipe. but not so bad to completely piss people off, except for hopefully the sobecks.....

hows the dry pipe for freeride.

[Kawi 800]

Think mine will be too bad if i just Y the pipe and have front and rear? When you getting out on the water we have already been stoped by the fish police haha

[kx454]

nah you should be alright, duals usually aren't to bad. when you hear how loud shaes is its not going to matter, he is just making his obnoxious....... probably going to lead to trouble.


i love the dry so far, i had it in the surf and a little flatwater in Daytona, its not perfectly tuned yet and it smokes my wet pipe in every aspect. i am just a little nervous to see how it holds up. i will let you know more in about 2 weeks when i am back on the water with the shortened hull.....

[wnb800]

sxrforever, i wanna see how loud your ski is at the rock n ride if your there. If its not too loud with the side exhaust when you put your pisser into it i may do that... i f'n hate bog

[Officer Mike]

..hes not getting bog. hes getting water into his carbs. he has to re-plumb the hood

[SXR-FOREVER]

sxrforever, i wanna see how loud your ski is at the rock n ride if your there. If its not too loud with the side exhaust when you put your pisser into it i may do that... i f'n hate bog

I dont think I am going to make the rock n ride this year, with gas prices the hell if I can afford that. Maybe if I somehow get some money I'll make it out.

I'll let you know how it sounds after I put the pisser in though.

[wnb800]

ohhh snap, figure that out asap because i think my hood is victim to that same axe

[kx454]

..hes not getting bog. hes getting water into his carbs. he has to re-plumb the hood

mine bogged when the hood was stock with the wet pipe, its not water in the carbs....

[wnb800]

GOOD.. bob to the rescue. i was about to ask how your determining that theres water in the carbs anyway.

[5810]

you will hear a loud noise followed by metal chunks from motor in the hull. :shocked:

J/K

[Kawi 800]

If i took my arestors off you can see the milky white/red gas/water mixture....... I also am going to fibglass the hole i made in mine so it dosnet act like a siphon. Im also going to do some carb tuning and call it a day, played with the carbs today and it made a big difference, Will dont even worry about your hood thats not the problem.

[Kawi 800]

lol thats another good point, if i was getting alot in there my motor would be toast

[wnb800]

oh tight
do me a favor and write down those carb settings so i can dial mine in quicker

[Kawi 800]

Not a problem Will

[kx454]

cale how cold is the water? i should be good to go in 2 weeks...foam and epoxy is coming on monday, after that its just bolting everything back together and getting some odds and ends buttoned up.

[Kawi 800]

It has to be in the 50's, today no wetsuits just the top today anyway.

[wnb800]

what epoxy do you need? i have tons of leftover stuff here

[kx454]

we got the blowsion stuff cheap, i gotta seal the back of my hull up. i got a new home depot scupper and stuff. i didnt know you had epoxy or i may have been on the water this weekend.

[wnb800]

i still have all the westsystems shiot, im surprised you didnt see it lying on the floor. Plus didnt i tell you you could have leftover
i have one side of the turf on and you guys have to see it.. i did the whole left side of the tray with one sheet.. its amazing what some patience, someone who has done it a few times and a heat gun can do

[kx454]

i actually did see it sitting there, i must have been to concentrated on my labatt....i will be turfing this weekend, i have a blowsion kit so it should be a big deal. i just want to be on the water, its killing me to hear how much these guys have been riding.

i have to go to harrisburg cause the fish smokeys are trying to suspend my license for a year....

[wnb800]

i can see how that labbats could be distracting.. sucks about that harrisburg ordeal, but if you need an extra kid standing around getting in your way when your building gimmie a call. btw this thread jack needs to end

[kx454]

haha thread jacking is fun. well tuesday ill be doing all my glass/epoxy work out at shaes if you want to stop in. ill give you a ring when i am heading out there

[Kawi 800]

Will try anad be out Friday, im going to play with carbs then and you should be there so i can work on them both.

[wnb800]

I dunno if I would 2 part foam it. If I had to do it again I wouldn't. Should have just gone with styrofoam to fill where the exhaust was. Maybe just add a drain like what came stock.

DO NOT FOAM AN SXR!!!!

[5810]

will it survive the abuse year after year with out any foam in the hull, what about sinking.

what is the easiest way to gut the foam, i want to do it if its not to bad.

[Officer Mike]

i doubt hes done it a few times. it might as well be his SXR.

semi-sorry for the negativity, but the way you talk he might as well have his own shop and be on the pro circuit, while builidng skis for malone on the side. i have never even seen him on the lake

[Officer Mike]

cale just get your exhaust T. run dual and call it a day. if its too loud .. oh well. it wont be tho. plain and simple

[Officer Mike]

ohhh snap, figure that out asap because i think my hood is victim to that same axe

wow, that was nice of him to do that for you

GOOD.. bob to the rescue. i was about to ask how your determining that theres water in the carbs anyway.

give me a break

[Kawi 800]

Yea i want to dig out that foam when i put my scupper in.

[wnb800]

all this negativity.. ive thanked him many times for cutting that hood, and mauser has helped me wayyy more than i have ever asked him too and im really thankful for it. You guys helped me out to and for that I am also thankful, i couldnt have done it without your help. It was a team effort and i was there the whole way and helped as much as i could. I have zero experience with this stuff and its nice to have people help and im just giving shout outs where credit is due. Im sorry that im so excited about my build

[wnb800]

i feel like im walking the halls of my old highschool, ******** all this drama, id rather ride by myself than deal with this childish bull********

[5810]

wow, this thread turned to SHIoooTT!!!!.

[wnb800]

haha yeah remeber when on page 2 i said we had to end the thread-jack? i just hate when people talk ******** for no reason at all. Its a shame it turned this way because its a vaild question with valid responces

[Officer Mike]

i wasnt starting garbage will, you know that. besides its me and you. you know that we love helping you and anyone else. maybe i came off wrong. just finish it up and get it out. call us if you need us.

didnt mean to take the thread off topic anymore then it already was

[wnb800]

dude at this point the topic is wayyyyyyy in the rear view mirror

[5810]

whats this thread about i forgot :-) lol

[Kawi 800]

whats this thread about i forgot :-) lol

............so anyway side exhaust rear exhaust do you want it no? Anyway.......i got a 550 outlet and peice for the inside of the ski, its balck so it will blend in with my hull. I'll prob take the router to my ski in the next few days when i get it in the mail. Back on topic :usa2:

[wnb800]

nice man i wanna hear it and ride it to see the difference, i might take a saw to mine then too

[kx454]

i wont be on the water as soon as i had though, push my ride time back another week...

[ras800]

wurd bob are you going to be home this weekend working on your ski?

[Kawi 800]

Think PVC will hold up to the heat of the exhaust if i get a PVC T and run it after the waterbox or will i need something more?

[Officer Mike]

you could always take your one pisser and throw it into the T, at that point it wont do anything bad for performance..

[Kawi 800]

Well officer mike fabed me up a side exhaust out of a 45 degree exhaust turn down that was on his jeep for over a year, and flanges made out of electrical box from someone house. I'll get some pictures up but im excited to see how it works and how loud i'll be

[kx454]

lets ride tomorrow.....i got a chipped ankle but i can go cruise around and get my ski tuned in

[Kawi 800]

I'll be out on the lake today-monday

[5810]

let us know how loud it is, Im thinking of doing it to my ski.

[Kawi 800]

Its really not that bad, from the back and opposite side its not that noticable from someone on shore, its deffinitly worth it, i like being able to do tail stands and nose stabs and not worry about loading up.

[5810]

do you have tdr box, on yours, so it solved all your loading up problems

[Kawi 800]

Yea i have the TDR, after riding this weekend it is kinda loud. It dosent load up anything like it did b4 without side exhaust.
