My brother is looking at a 23 boost. Are the 23s okay?? Anything to look for or stay away from?
With either the 24 or 25 flash I have yet to data log any timing being pulled or knock running wot at 7500-8000+ using 91 non eth at normal running temps. I think that was a 23 flash thing where they would deto pulling them down. The 25 flash does have less timing in that area vs the 24.7850 shes pulling timing unless your running 100 plus octane or some kind of octane boost .....
Mine will go into DET at 7800 ever time without boost in the tankPlain and simple, there is more stuff that can go wrong with Boost sleds. Like mentioned, pto seals and auxiliary injector harness issues seem to be happening. The hard parts in the engine are very strong.

Must be leaner than mine in that area.Mine will go into DET at 7800 ever time without boost in the tank
There is no O2 sensor on a stock Polaris Boost snowmobile.Just over 5000 miles on mine no problems up to this Saturday changed the stock reed power flow valve to the new TRS ran like a dream less smoke on start up and warm up and 20 to 50 mph but noticed a hesitation around 79 mph and up and could only get 113 mph at 7850 rpm, always get 120 ish and 8250 rpm, is it possible the o2 sensor needs to be replaced and the sled was detecting a lean or detonation and retarded the timing when I was over 79 mph ? any thoughts on this. Has any one had any problems when swapping to the new TRS power flow valve?
I feel dirty plug boots cause alot of issues on all sleds not just boost and should be checked from time to time , those are yucky !View attachment 2166804 View attachment 2166805 View attachment 2166806 May have found my backfiring issue 2000 miles on these plugs. Gotta like the orange boostane crust. pretty sure exhaust valves need a cleaning
YesThis a hotter plug BPR8ES then a BPR9ES.
Just a side note most tunes out there are/were developed on the 23/24 base tune with BPR9ES .Starting with MY25, Polaris has recommended for ALL the Patriot Liquid cooled engines:
For those who want solid terminal BPR8ES spark plugs without the screw-off terminal nut, order NGK# 95521
NGK.com #95521 BPR8ES spark plug
this is a little colder spark plug: BPR8ES. It is Polaris part# 3024357
I'm sure the incomplete combustion, contributed to the dirty exhaust valves.
Yeah these plugs have 2000 miles on them did pretty good. put a boat load of nos through it a swell. cant get solid top eix plugs as far as I know. those plugs were drenched in dielectric grease originally. The valves were no different than any of my 850's usually clean them a 1500miles. I wouldn't run the regular bprs, the eix always run crisper and stronger idle. My sleds are usually traded by now. it's normally someone else problem. No 9r boost so going to have to waitJust fyi if you’re using boostane change plugs way more often and clean valves. The orange stuff that it produces carps stuff up faster. It’s good stuff and works well just need to stay on the maintenance
