Hello,
I am a dealer BOMBARDIER.
We have just received the TURBO kit of KMS for one of our customers and I will have some questions to pose to the users of this kit.
We will assemble this kit on a DS 650 stocks, will change the springs of clutch and the arm.

1)Have you meet yourself problems at the time of the installation of this kit?
2)How many of hours can one hope to roll? average lifespan of the engine with this kit?
3)The motor does it go up more in temperature? It preferable of intaller is coolers and air intake radiator.
4)Next are the installation of the turbo kit, which the significant points to supervise?
5)Have you breakage? (engine......)

thank you for your answers

 

If you are running the stock piston I would not expect more than one good season out of the quad.

It takes about 4 hours with some handy friends helping out.

I did not have any specific problems with the kit mounting other than the header which can be a little tricky the first time. It does fit, you just have to try all the angles to get both pipes in at the same time.

The bike does not run more than 10-20 degrees warmer. On methanol mine sits around 165deg.

The clutch upgrade is a must and the clutch will still not hold up for more than 3-4 weekends of hard riding. I would highly recommend the low compression piston if you do not already have it.

 

Pretty easy install. Engine life will depend on where and how the quad will be used. Do not use the stock DS oil filter. Get a hold of a Scotts stainless oil filter and the engine will last a lot longer. I would also order a 8.1 lower compression piston. Engine will run cooler and build more tourqe. As for your last question is hard to answer. I have not had any engine problems but that really depends on how well the DS owner maintains the quad. You will want to change the oil a little more often. Be sure you check and recheck the nuts and bolts before and after break in. Also make sure that you get enough oil flow out of the turbo after the first engine warm up and after every oil change..

 

Thank you for the information,
But what do you call, a good season? 10, 20, 50, 100 Hours?
hat you wanted to say: "It takes butt 4 hours with some handy friends helping out." I did not understand. And the "the low compression piston"????? what is ?? and one this part and at which price can your find?

Which kind of race made you with your DS turbo cross-country race, endurance, sand???? and which duration of race???
and isn't the machine too heavy with this kit? Is the arm it necessary with this kit?

I have a little evil with some English words, to forgive me.

 

I'ld change the oil every 20 hours???
Two men can install the Turbo in less than 1 day.
Low Compression piston is one that has a shorter deck to it, i.e. less of a dome on top - simply put, the piston has less material on the top of it. I'ld guess a lower compression piston will run you about $300 US. Check out Full Throttle Junkies for the piston.
I think most have run the Turbo DS in a Desert Race - mix of sand, silt and hardpack.
The stock swingarm is a little short for drag racing but, there are a few that have run this set-up with the stock swingarm. The front end will come up on you but, depending on where you ride you may want to be able to lift the front end sometimes.

 

I don't know Justin, but with the 30 min. teardown, all and all I think with you, Kelly, and myself it was about 8 hrs. from the time the first bolt came out untill it fired up. And with the older EFI system Kelly had a couple more hours gettin' it tuned.

I am ever the optimist. Kelly did work on it the next morning for a couple hours. All I know is it was dark when we started and the sun hadn't come up when I went to bed. It was a good time.....
