Question:
I have a 2004 Ski-Doo GSX 600 HO and I need to know what I can do with it.
I have a Ski-Doo riser kit on it and it’s great. I want more power, but there aren’t a lot of parts for GSX 600’s. All of the aftermarket parts are for the MXZ’s and Mach-Z’s and other performance sleds.
What I was wondering was if a parts like an exhaust kit for a 2004 MXZ 600 HO would fit my GSX. If not that, any other sleds that have common aftermarket parts that would fit my GSX. Also, any other info about what I should do with my sled or where I should go for the parts would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your time and I will be anxiously awaiting your response.
Sincerely,
Steven Frangk
Response
Thanks for your question. First thing which comes to mind is this – If you own a Rev GSX and didn’t know it’s a mechanical twin to an MX-Z, you might want to go easy on engine mods.
Here’s the deal, you can bolt anything on a GSX Rev which will fit an MX-Z Rev. With the exception of some small suspension tweaks, the sleds are identical.
Be careful about adding an exhaust system. While there is more HP available with a good aftermarket exhaust, ask the company you buy from about recommended jetting and clutching tweaks.
If you do not perform both clutch and jetting mods you will not get all you paid for with an aftermarket exhaust.
Also, pay careful attention to the advertised sound level of any aftermarket exhaust mod. In many jurisdictions there are noise regulations imposed on snowmobiles.
It is possible to alter the sound your sled makes without exceeding these limits.
