I tried one last year. It might have made a tiny difference in hookup or keeping th pump loaded. But then I tried a real mag pump and it was drastically better.
The good: it's 1/4th the price of a magnum pump
the bad: it's only 5% as effecive (being generous here too)
verdict: save your money...
Norwood Autocraft had a 2 rotor (RX-7 motor) in a X2 about 11 years ago. I didn't know anything about jet skis back then so I didn't look at it. ATS_Scott got a glance at it once. I think Tom Stephens was the guy that built it. He no longer works there so I am not sure how to find him or...
more like stubborn stupid. haha. The only reason this topic is up is because of the used ones currently available.
I'm sure he'll have more as soon as the Unicorns return his talking sea horse. Jeff has told me the WDK 1200 coming again story twice...unfortunately the stories didn't match...
XS Scream fans crack me up. Die hard to the end.
Just over a year ago I heard XS was planning a 66E based motor. However the success of the hugely popular 865 stuff has taken so much time that the 66E is on the back burner still.
It comes down to a weight versus power issue. Plus XS is...
I haven't looked into what the Ski Clinic sells (other than BOBS), but they sure were cool at World Finals. Offered us lots of help with WDK pipes and were just generally great people.
WDK - I put about $10,000 his way last summer to get the dry pipes finally made. He pretty much screwed me...
I'm giving Thrust a chance with my DASA rebuild. He really took care of me when my pipe failed.
Art at Jetworks is always happy to give away free nformation. It amazes me. I feel bad taking up his time.
DASA offers a heck of a motor. It took me a while to dial it in, but the results were...
Or just shorten the steering. I have a stock RN as a spare ski for friends. I bought straight bars, actually I went REALLY cheap and bought straight 7/8 aluminum structural tubing, cut it to my desired length and modified the stock turn plate with a drill and a grinder to allow the straight bar...
Oh yeah, my passion for the water over the street was reinforced this morning. I was driving my second MR2 car to work (basically a silver/grey copy of the one in my sig) and got pulled over. As usual I built a beast of a car that whenever I drive it like it was meant to be driven I could end up...
I've felt myself and the sport getting older. We ride less because of our kids now. I can't wait for my son to be old enough to ride. I plan to get him and his friends addicted. I like to keep a stock-ish ski on the trailer with us, just in case people (read hot girls) show up we can teach them...
Your answers are all correct. Because of the CVT the snowmobile engine can be tuned to a very narrow (by comparison) power band. That power band is also at a very high rpm, higher than our jet pumps can efficiently operate at. Here is an example. The following graph is a Jaws triple piped Yamaha...
