Some people think their aftermarket stuff makes it worth more than the stuff costs.

That's for sure. Makes my truck worth about $25-30,000.

Hope she recovers quickly and gets to go home soon.

What a joke. For 80K you'd think they could take some decent pictures....

I started a new engine build at work yesterday.
1100 turbo 4 stroke for an outlaw drag snowmobile. These things make a lot of power for only being 1.1 liters. They run over 50psi of boost as well.
Run time is measured in minutes instead of miles.

I will also start another build tomorrow, beginning with the tear down of this engine.

This is a 1000cc engine from a 2015 RZR XP.

These are a little more mild on the power, only around 165HP

Why does the 1000 need to be torn down? Aren't they supposed to last a bit longer than that?
