XCR1250 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Renegade X-RS 900 ACE Turbo - my first hike of the season Denis Lavoie Read all his articles 2018-10-29 Renegade X-RS 900 ACE Turbo - my first hike of the 2019 season Since its announcement last February, all projectors are turned to the Rotax 900 ACE Turbo engine. Indeed, snowmobilers have many expectations for this 150 hp machine. Last spring, I had the opportunity to briefly ride some snowmobiles equipped with this engine. ( Read ... ) These tests gave me a little insight, but nothing like rolling a machine over a longer period to really see what she is capable of. In addition, in the spring we had tried prototypes while today we talk about production models. Of course, the Renegade X-RS 900 ACE Turbo is certainly the snowmobile that offers the best platform to really make the most of the engine. So I'm very lucky to be able to test it during the next season. Start testing on October 27th ... Before giving you my first impressions of this snowmobile, I want to specify that we were in conditions of beginning of season and that naturally, there were no surfaced trails. However, there was between 30 cm and 40 cm of compact snow on the ground. Thus, we could not "open the machine" as much as we wanted, since there were often traces of pickup and jeep in the paths that we borrowed. In addition, it must be understood that the machine is in running. Now, let's get down to business! As soon as we start the engine, we are quickly captivated by the sound of the latter. It is clear that the people of Ski-Doo have stopped on this aspect and the result is really successful. We do not speak here of a sound of motor, but of a music which leaves nobody indifferent. When you press the accelerator, it's even better. Engine response When the throttle is pressed, the engine responds quickly and energetically. We are entitled to good acceleration ... Oops ... We are in normal mode ... Let's go into sport mode. Phew, when the engine is idling and switch from normal mode to sport mode, we hear the engine "change range". We guess that the performances will be different. Acceleration thrusts are actually stronger. Wow! No worries here, we feel very well the 150 horses that develop this engine. No hesitation! I must admit that I preferred to use the normal mode in places where the trail was more rugged or tortuous. Indeed, the engine in sport mode is in these circumstances too spirited to make the ride comfortable. However, when you arrive in more linear sectors or with less pronounced curves, you go into sport mode in order to release all the ardor of the 900 ACE Turbo. Of course, this is my very first contact this season and in the next few months I will be able to tell you more. Renegade X-RS - First successful appointment ... Over the years, the X-RS sets have always caught my heart of snowmobiling and the current version of the Renegade X-RS continues this "tradition". From my first kilometers with this snowmobile, I felt very comfortable. Yes, I felt the front a little heavier, since it is after all a 4-stroke engine in the front. This naturally has an impact with which we must deal, but having driven many four-stroke snowmobiles for fifteen years, I quickly got used to the particular behavior of this X-RS. On the suspended side, the only adjustment I made was the preload I usually place at around 3.25. For the rest, in conditions of early season, I did not dwell on finding the best fit possible. I do this later when the trails start to open. My hike was very comfortable. At the control level, after getting used to the weight factor of the front of the snowmobile, it was very predictable. We did not have excessively difficult conditions, so the opposite would have been surprising. Cockpit The driving position is very ergonomic. Everything is in its place. In addition, with the adjustable handlebars, the Renegade X-RS allows the driver to adjust the handlebars to his or her preferences. I will, however, have to get used to the mechanical reversing control since in recent years, I had the electric control directly on the handlebars. We agree that it is very minor. An addition I'm going to have to make on this snowmobile is a medium windshield. The tiny series windshield is super stylish, but will not offer enough protection against the wind when the cold weather arrives. In short, this is a first appointment and successful Renegade X-RS 900 ACE Turbo and I will certainly have several other outings together in the coming months!

JEFF Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 For a trail sled it's probably going to be a good machine. If you must go break neck speed from bar to bar it's probably not the machine for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hp comes from boost and fuel and boost raises combustion temps so... need more octane. 190-200 on e85 or c16 maybe Edited October 29, 2018 by Rod Johnson Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Jackson Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) IDK, the 900T is roughly 6 lbs of boost so you said that the 1200 was faster at 30% of the boost. I'm not that bright but wouldn't that be 2 lbs of boost? sorry if I misunderstood. I'm assuming that the 1200 had a turbo. Edited October 29, 2018 by J.
