bassmaster345 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 Just a thought, I used to race dirt oval karts (100cc reedjet) and I used a Digitron guage for EGT and RPM. Would this be a better way to keep an eye on engine temps or is a in line water temp gauge just as good. Quote
moneybags Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 EGT would be way better then the water temp gage IMO. I dont see y more people dont run them. If you have power jets it will alow you to ajust on the fly to air and elevations changes. Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted April 3, 2009 Report Posted April 3, 2009 I know your taking about a banshee but i run a Digatron 50 Series DT-50S on my 800REV skidoo....i love it!!! Quote
xater Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 I know your taking about a banshee but i run a Digatron 50 Series DT-50S on my 800REV skidoo....i love it!!! I would run egt gagues on a piped sled but in my banshee its probly cheeper to do more plug chops then spend $200+ on egt gauges, also banshees are not prone to blowing up as fast as a sled that isnt jetted right.

SAVAGE420 Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 also banshees are not prone to blowing up as fast as a sled that isnt jetted right. Your kidding right? :ninja: Quote
xater Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 Your kidding right? :ninja: in my case anyway. i ride trails with my shee and im sure if the main was a size or two off it wont blow up right away. anyways when i bought my banshee it had 240 mains that the guy ran for a couple years and it still runs mint. now it has 300s. anyway riding sleds they are at high constaint rpms for a long time, like holding it to the bar across the lake. which is alot worse then being on and off the throttle and having to shift with a banshee. and yes in my case i beleve my banshee will not blow up at quick as my sled with improper jetting.

black sunshine Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 My friend has a sled with a triple in it. He says he has to jet the last cylinder to get coolant fatter or it will seize, again! I could see this throwing people for a loop.... Quote
BansheeJohn Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 I plan on running egt's next winter for sure. You can have 40 degree temp changes during the winter and the egt's will indicate problems sooner than plug chops. I noticed a trail tech gauge on Rocky Mountains web site. Now if they would just add egt capability to that it would be a perfect fit for a banshee. You would have a tach,egt,spedo and some other funtions to gain peek efficiency. Just my two cents :geek: Quote
