ELEVATION DOESNT MATTER HERRRRDERRRRR

Don't tell him that Minnesota is 1200 ft above sea level average. It will fuck up his entire argument.

Why would it do that? Did the skidoo make more than its SAE certified power rating at 1200’ above sea level?

Yes and the N/A makes less at 1200 ft than at sea level.

How often do you ride a sled at sea level and where?

 

 

As a general rule, a naturally aspirated combustion engine will lose 3% of its power for every 1,000 ft of elevation gain. If you have 100 horsepower at sea level by the time you get to 5,000 feet of elevation your engine is making 85 horsepower. At 10,000 feet of elevation your engine will make 70 horsepower.

Ben your SAE certified 155hp 800 doesn't even make 150 in Minnesota. 

The power rating is at sea level , if the turbo system is not designed to exceed that power rating it is not turbo charged.

cant be any simpler

Skidoo added no power with their turbo , simply maintained it. It’s normalized , not charged. Even an inbred  fucking low Iq dumbfuck like you should be able to grasp it. But Noooooo 

The turbo added power at elevation over its NA cousin. So it added power.

But that’s not where engine power is rated , sorry man ….youre dumb as fuck

This is a dumb conversation over semantics. The turbo beats the NA at altitude but not SL. It has more power at altitude.

It’s not semantics , there are two different utilizations of turbos and they have very long standing definitions

Well I don’t disagree with that. One is used to make more power across the altitude spectrum and the other used to make more power above sea level.

Ben does your sled make corrected hp or uncorrected hp? The turbo makes more uncorrected hp above sea level.

Do you even know?

No ……one is used to maintain rated hp regardless of elevation and one is used to exceed rated hp regardless of elevation.

Shut up stupid , you’ve proven yourself dumb as fuck and I’m your intellectual superior by a significant margin

Then why did you start this thread and call me out? 

You can call yourself whatever you want, like your definitions, it doesn't make it true.

So just to sum it up.

The 850 N/A Doo doesn't make SAE corrected hp ANYWHERE in the snowmobile world except on paper.

The 850 Turbo ( first release) makes SAE corrected HP from sea level to 10000ft.

End of story.

Yes , and that is by definition turbo normalized. Thanks for that summation retard

Yes via a turbocharger,  that little wheel adding boosted pressure.

You don't tell all your dumb friends your sleds make SAE HP do you? Just to make it sound better? Our N/A sleds don't make corrected hp dummy,  dynos do.

Hey , I’m not the one who came up the with the definitions. Take it up with all the engineers in the aircraft industry for 100 years ago

OK then show where it says that turbocharged is defined by

Making more than SAE certified hp at sea level   OR

Turbocharged has a specific definition and that means it makes a pressure above 1 atmosphere.

Please :dunno:

 

 

 

If an engine is built for the Pikes Peak race and dyno tuned for the 5000ft starting line (uncorrected hp) and then they add a turbo to maintain power to the 14,000 ft starting line are they turbocharged? That is what they call that class, weird, you should call them.

They DGAF about sea level, ever.

 

Also IIRC the aftermarket dyno's found the turbo actually made a few more "corrected hp" than the n/a versions :news:
