RB26powered74zcar Posted January 17, 2003 Share Posted January 17, 2003 Anyone want to take a stab at this 185 hp engine with a supercharger on it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted January 18, 2003 Author Share Posted January 18, 2003 Sorry guys, I don't know how to inlarge it so you can see what it looks like up close. It's a new SeaDoo they just sent me a flyer on. It's pretty awsome looking. I used to have a 155 hp Yamaha Waverunner that I built up the 3 cyl engine on and I thought that was fast... and it was a two stroke. I can't wait to hear the modified hp #s that they will be getting off this thing. I will try and figure out a way to inlarge it and repost it. joel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Joel, I love sea doo's. Have had several. Modifid one with twice pipes. No bottom end but the top end was unbelievable, until it blew up. I hope they put that motor in a small hull. Some of those things have gotten so big might as well be in a boat.

RB26powered74zcar Posted January 18, 2003 Author Share Posted January 18, 2003 Mark, I had a 1100cc Waveraider that our local Dealership paid me to race a season on. They sold me the $6,800 watercraft for $5,500 then once I completed the season, Yamaha rebated me $3,000. I can't emagine the power that new Seadoo must have with a S/C on it. The flyer they sent me has some pretty impressive features about it. Anyhow, I'm more into the four wheel variety with a turbo on it now.....

Guest Anonymous Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Now I have a 97 spx. One of the last small hulls. Really like the smaller hulls for riding in the surf. Talk about a hybrid, that SC motor in my 97 hull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inZane 240 Posted January 18, 2003 Share Posted January 18, 2003 Hey guys, I have a 96 sp with a measly 65hp. Just wondering what bang for the buck mods you guys would recommend. Intake grates, new impeller, etc...Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB26powered74zcar Posted January 19, 2003 Author Share Posted January 19, 2003 inzane, I would go with what you said, plus at least a pipe, and get rid of that air box, that chokes it down quite abit. I'd like to adapt that new motor to a ultralite somehow... hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Anonymous Posted January 19, 2003 Share Posted January 19, 2003 Get rid of it and get a 97 or newer. Bigger motor, much more torque and speed. I had the 96 sp, did the intake grate and new flame arrestors, it did make a difference, but then I rode the 97, no comparison. What ever you do, Sea Doo.

inZane 240 Posted January 21, 2003 Share Posted January 21, 2003 If I could only afford a newer ski! What about an engine swap from a spx or xp of the same year? Would it bolt in? With the light hull of the sp and the power of those engines, I think I could kill myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
