Default YZF-R1 engine in snowmobile?

I cant find a yamaha snowmobile with the same engine that the R1 has in it. You know 998cc DOHC
20-valve inline 4 that makes 180hp. 0 and does someone know how much power the R1 makes without the ram-air system?

They are using the same motor as the older ones, only the new 06 has efi and 10 more hp (150). The 04/05 R1s make around 170 hp without the help of ramair, but rev way higher 13750 vs. 10200 for the sled(old R1/FZ1 motor).

Hahahaa...... we mock what we dont understand. The RX1 (with the help of a turbo) is the baddest snowmobile ever produced. It is now called the Apex but is still basically the same machine with some changes. They changed the name to get away from the 1ton nickname. I have an RX1 turbo that will kick the shi# out of almost any snowmbile on the planet. Removed over 100lbs and with the Boss Noss it puts out around 350-400hp [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]
