My 2012 Ski-Doo 800 e-tech twin is 160hp stock , it's a 2 stroke so it does not need the turbo like the 750 Weber to make it's 145hp.

Many places to safely ride a 80 mph on a flat frozen lake but not so much on a ATV trail. LOL
The YXZ can still do 80 mph. If it had a 160 hp snowmobile engine in it, it would probably run 120 mph. There is talk of a factory turbo option but I still think Yamaha will put a rev limiter on it to limit the top speed to about 80 mph. That's about what the turbo rzr and maverick do. They just get there faster than the non-turbo versions. I have seen modified rzrs with monster hp that could go much faster. Usually when they get modified that much, they are 2wd only in most cases. They become full-on race vehicles then.
