TEAM SOLID 2018-2023 Arctic Cat CTec Turbo kit

PLEASE READ: IF YOU BUY A BELT DRIVE THIS CLUTCHING ONLY WORKS WITH THE STOCK GEARING.

AFTER ORDERING PLEASE EMAIL A PICTURE OF THE INSIDE OF YOUR CLUTCH WHERE THE MOVABLE SHEEVE AND THE SPIDER MEET. THE CLUTCHES ARE DIFFERENT BETWEEN 2019 AND 2020 WE HAVE TO MAKE SURE WE GET YOU THE RIGHT CLUTCHING WE NEED TO SEE THE SHIM, AS THERE ARE DIFFERENT THICKNESSES.

Please note: The Clutching weight profile in this kit is designed around the stock gear ratio. You must use the stock gear ratio for the clutches to shift properly.

Please note: The 2020 Arctic Cats were shipped with 2 different shims in the primary clutch. Please provide a clear picture of the shim behind the Spider in the Primary clutch so you are shipped the proper weights.

* GARRETT GTX2860R GEN II

THE TURBO CENTER SECTION HAS BEEN MODIFIED AND THE TOP SET OF BEARINGS GET OILED DIRECTLY WHEN VERTICALLY MOUNTED. THE VERTICALLY MOUNTED TURBO REDUCES THE OVERALL LENGTH FROM THE TOP OF THE INTAKE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE RESONATOR WHICH REDUCES THROUGHPUT RESISTANCE RESULTING IN A MORE EFFICIENT SYSTEM. YOU NEED TO THINK OF “BOOST PRESSURE” AS A MEASUREMENT OF RESTRICTION. IT’S ALL ABOUT VOLUME, THE MORE EFFICIENT THE SYSTEM, THE GREATER VOLUME OF AIR YOU CAN MOVE THROUGH THE SYSTEM AT A LOWER “BOOST” PRESSURE.

THE GARRETT GEN II USES CERAMIC BEARINGS WHICH ARE LIGHTER WEIGHT AND ARE PERFECTLY ROUND WHICH REDUCES ROLLING RESISTANCE RESULTING IN A FASTER SPOOLING TURBO. THE COMPRESSOR HOUSING HAS A SHROUDED INLET WHICH HELPS INCREASE THE FLOW VELOCITY ACROSS THE COMPRESSOR WHEEL FOR BETTER EFFICIENCY.

* FULL 3″ ALUMINUM INTAKE

THIS LARGE 3″ ALUMINUM INTAKE WITH RADIUSED CORNERS INCREASES LAMINAR FLOW, REDUCES RESISTANCE AND DELIVERS A SMOOTH COLUMN OF AIR TO THE TURBO FOR BETTER EFFICIENCY.

* 38MM TURBOSMART BLOW OFF VALVE – MODIFIED

THE LARGE DIAMETER B.O.V. WITH CUSTOM SPRING REDUCES SURGE PRESSURE WHEN CHOPPING THE THROTTLE WHICH HELPS KEEP THE TURBO SPOOLED FOR FASTER ON AND OFF THROTTLE SPOOLING RESPONSE.

* LARGE 6″ ALUMINUM CHARGE BOX WITH LOW PRESSURE BY-PASS

VOLUME EQUALS POWER – THE MORE CHARGED VOLUME ON DEMAND THE MORE POWER ON DEMAND. THE HUGE CHARGE BOX IS 3.1 TIMES THE DISPLACEMENT OF THE MOTOR AND IS CONSTRUCTED USING A PULTRUDED .120 WALL 6″ 6061-T6 (SEAMLESS) TUBE ALLOWING FOR MAXIMUM VOLUME. THE THINNER WALLED PRESSURE VESSEL REDUCES WEIGHT AND ALLOWS FOR BETTER HEAT DISIPATION.

*LOW PRESSURE BY-PASS

BY INCORPORATING A LOW PRESSURE BY-PASS IN THE CHARGE BOX WE ARE ALLOWING THE MOTOR TO BREATH LIKE A NATURALLY ASPIRATED MOTOR ON THE BOTTOM END. WHEN THE PRESSURE IN THE CHARGE BOX EQUALS ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE THE BY-PASS CLOSES AND THE TURBO IS NOW SPOOLED. THE MORE AVAILABLE AIR ALLOWS YOU TO ADD MORE FUEL, THE ADDED FUEL EQUALS MORE POWER AND THE FASTER YOU CAN LOAD THE MOTOR THE FASTER YOU CAN SPOOL THE TURBO. THIS PROCESS IS COMPOUNDING AND IS EXTREMELY FAST. THIS TECHNOLOGY ISN’T NEW BUT FOR SOME REASON WAS NEVER USED. SKIDOO AND POLARIS ARE NOW USING THE SAME LOW PRESSURE “TURBO BY-PASS” REAFFIRMING THE VALIDITY OF SOLIDS DIRECTION. THE LARGE CHARGE BOX ALSO WORKS LIKE A BIG SHOCK ABSORBER WHEN CHOPPING THE THROTTLE BY REDUCING THE PRESSURE SURGE THAT CAN MAKE ITS WAY BACK TO THE TURBO.

* ECU TUNING

This kit currently comes with a boondocker control box, with supporting map. Torque link tuning will become available soon at which time you can choose to just flash your ecu if you so choose. 

*CLUTCHCING

THIS OUT OF THE BOX THINKING ON CLUTCHING HAS TAKEN THE LEGEND TURBO TO A NEW LEVEL. “IT IS ALL ABOUT GEOMETRY”. WHERE OTHERS ADD WEIGHT, BIKEMAN USES GEOMETRY. OUR CLUTCHING CAN DELIVER MORE FORCE AT THE RIGHT TIME BY MODIFYING THE PROFILE THAN OTHERS CAN WITH A 12 GRAM HEAVIER WEIGHT. LIGHTER WEIGHTS EQUAL LESS INERTIA IN THE PRIMARY CLUTCH FOR FASTER SPOOLING AND BACKSHIFTING. WHEN YOU MATE THE PROFILE OF THE SECONDARY HELIX WITH THE PROFILE OF THE PRIMARY WEIGHTS YOU HAVE COMPLETE CONTROL OVER HOW THE MOTOR GETS LOADED. IF YOU LOAD THE MOTOR TO FAST IT HAS TO PULL THROUGH THE LOAD AND IF YOU DON’T LOAD IT ENOUGH YOU SACRIFICE HORSEPOWER. THE CLUTCHING WAS DESIGNED AROUND THE SWEET SPOT IN THE POWERBAND TO MAXIMIZE TRACK SPEED AND HORSEPOWER. THIS WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO DO. IT IS LIKE HAVING 3 VARIABLES IN AN EQUATION THAT EQUAL MAX HORSEPOWER/TRACK SPEED. YOU CAN’T CHANGE ONE VARIABLE WITHOUT AFFECTING THE OTHER TWO. WE CUT OVER 30 DIFFERENT PRIMARY PROFILES AND OVER 26 DIFFERENT SECONDARY HELIX PROFILES BEFORE THEY CREATED THE PERFECT UNION AND REACHED MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY.

*CUSTOM SILICONE

THE SILICONE USED IN THE KIT IS 4 PLY POLYESTER REINFORCED AND IS FLOURINE LINED. THE SILICONE IS FUEL RATED AND IS THERMALLY RATED UP TO 450 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.

*EXHAUST FLANGES & SPRINGS

THE Y-PIPE TO PIPE EXHAUST SPRINGS WERE ENGINEERED AROUND THE ARCTIC CAT. THE EXHAUST SPRINGS ARE RATED AT 65 LBS AND ARE HEAT TOLERANT. THE LARGER THE COILS AND THE MORE COILS YOU HAVE THE MORE HEAT TOLERANT THE SPRING. THE OPPOSED HOOKS BALANCE THE LOAD ON THE SPRING AND HELP PREVENT BREAKAGE. OTHER TURBO KIT MANUFACTURES DOUBLE SPRING THIS UNION OR FIND THE CLOSEST SPRING THAT WILL “WORK”. OUR SPRINGS ARE DESIGNED SO YOU DON’T RUIN OR OVERSTRETCH THE SPRING WHEN INSTALLING. THE PIPE TO TURBO UNION UTILIZES AN EXHAUST FLANGE AND 90 LB DIE SPRINGS TO KEEP THE PIPE FROM FLOATING OFF OF THE TURBO UNDER HIGH BOOST. ONE OF 2 THINGS HAPPEN WHEN USING TRADITIONAL SPRINGS: EITHER THE STINGER TABS BEND OR THE STINGER TAB WELDS FAIL.
