This morning we finished off Ziggy's F8 with Boondocker and a hermaphrodite (part stock part custom stamped looks like it won't fit the stock heat shield) BM single prototype that matched Ziggy's F8 modded stock pipe. The modded stock pipe had that camel hump dip just...
This mat have been the best Shootout ever--decent temp, lots of snow, 13 aftermarket sleds. And we caught one ringer. all results will be in SnowWeek magazine. After that article is out I will post my numbers of stock sleds including that wicked SkiDoo provided Mach Z...
We struggled again today with Boss Noss, added a restrictor to help cut down 45 psi fuel pressure. Made extra 25 HP on our first pull today .72 LB/HPHR BSFC, but gas solenoid began leaking fuel into the engine. Got my magnifying glass out, gas solenoid is good for low...
The sled on the dyno right now is an essentially stock ZR900 EFI with speedwerx slightly high compression head and SLP twin pipe, bondocker box, and Boss Noss nitrous oxide injection system. We tweaked for a few hours today, fuel flow was way too high even with fuel...
Jimmy Cooper was contacted today by Bombardier, explaining that wrong ECU's had been shipped to DynoTech. No one called me. I will guess that last year they fooled me with the same dragrace ECU. Look at the numbers on DTR last year's Shootout. That one had way too...
Friday/ Sat we dyno tested the last sleds, I had a great deal of help from Jim Intimidator Gonyea, Fast Eddy, Dan Tripod Cross, and Nick and Alex to get these done. We had a huge problem with the SkiDoos. Our Shootout Group (Tim Erikson, John Prusak,...
Tim Erikson got back late last night with Polaris Fusion 600/ 900s. SW contributing editor Dave Wells met us at the dyno, then drove Tim to the airport in Buffalo to catch a late flight back to MN. No time for Tim's dyno training this time, maybe next year. This...
I just came home after meeting Tim Erikson (one K) at the dyno in Batavia NY.. Tim flew into White Plains NY Monday, picked up the GM loaner truck, drove to Old Forge, spent the night, picked up a four place trailer at White Lake Polaris, picked up three sleds from...
Today we dialed in Darrell's 05 F7 carb, expecting to struggle like we did with Tony's 04 last year, this one was different animal. No problem tweeking to match EFI power, tested with DDYpipe, DDF7 Monster pipe, Bikeman F7 mod single. Now that I have some non-Cat...
Sorry Pol Yam Doo guys, the cats are pounding on my door again. I have mortgage payments to make, and though I'd like to do more non-cat stuff, they are coming one after another. This year the big deal is mod F7's with EFI and Boondocker boxes. Today we...
Today I had Kim Stout from PA, bone stock 05 F7 ( another lean one) dyno tested with stock pipe/ muffler, Speedwerx pipe and can, Speedwerx pipe and stock muffler, Bikeman mode F7 stock pipe and stock muffler. Will post those eye-opening numbers after I get some...
Please someone in scandanavia email this person, he punched in an incorrect Email address when he subsribed to DTR, consequently never got his ID PW, I've tried to email his ID PW from DTR and also from my home email, his server keeps kicking my emails back as...
D&D saw last blog, brought back the revised F7 Monster Single for us to test on carbed F6 this morning. There was very good improvent in HP curve with D&D pipe, partially because F6carb EV opens way too late, discussion on website. Next tuesday 11/15,...

I didn't realize Chris has a Boondocker N2O system on his ported F7 sled. With just gasoline and a new F7Monster single (different from F8F9 Monster single), we made 161-165 depending on A/F ratio. The juice added a solid 40 HP, Dale Roes was the button pusher (I...
