AEROCHARGER STINGER KIT This optional mod replaces the stock stinger on the snowmobile’s expansion pipe with Aerocharger’s custom stinger. The diameter on the custom stinger is larger, which reduces backpressure and increases flow efficiency. This modification was developed by Aerocharger’s race team as a simple way to enhance throttle response and horsepower. NOTE: The Aerocharger Stinger Kit is optional, and is not required for the turbo system to be installed and operated. Do not install this kit if you are uncomfortable cutting and welding the stock pipe. Incorrectly modifying the pipe can result in fitment issues or damage the engine and turbo. 10.4 Deburr around the cut edge, inside and out. Clean the surface of the pipe 1/2” around the cut, so the new stinger will weld cleanly on. 10.1 With the pipe removed from the vehicle, 10.2 Measure and mark both lines 5” from the draw lines to align the new stinger. Use a square to mark two lines on opposite sides of the pipe, running perpendicular to the stock stinger. seat of the exhaust gasket. These marks will be used to locate the new exhaust gasket seat. 10.5 Drop the stinger into the pipe from the engine side, narrow end first. Pass it through the pipe, and it will emerge from the cut edge lined up in place. 10.6 If the pipe is old or has surface corrosion, it may be necessary to grind off some of the flange on the new stinger to seat properly. 10.7 Pull the stinger tightly through the cut end of the pipe. Use the marks and a square to line up the stinger the same way the original stinger was aligned. 10.3 With the location of the new stinger marked on the pipe, use a reciprocating saw to cut off the stock stinger directly behind the weld. www.AEROCHARGER.com (913) 829-3400 [email protected] www.AEROCHARGER.com (913) 829-3400 [email protected] 17 | E-TEC 600 & 800 Turbo System Installation Manual Aerocharger Turbo Systems | 18 10.8 Once the stinger is located according to the reference marks, use a TIG welder to weld the stinger in place. Be sure to tack it around the circumference first so that it will not pull or move during welding. A MIG welder can also be used, but be sure to carefully clean the pipe afterwards to ensure that no MIG wire sticks inside. 10.12 The excess weld inside the pipe will need to be ground off to improve performance and prevent damage to the turbo. Remove all burrs or MIG wire, and make sure the inside surface of the stinger is smooth. 10.9 Locate the gasket seat ring using the 5” reference mark from the original seat. DO NOT measure from the end of the tube - the new stinger will have the excess cut off the end after all the welding is complete. 10.10 Measure the stock stinger to determin how far back the spring tabs should be welded. Mark the distance and orientation on the new stinger. 10.13 The new stinger will be longer than necessary and must be cut to the correct size. Use the gasket to determine how much length needs to be cut off. Use a reciprocating saw to cut it to the correct size, and deburr all edges. 10.11 10.14 Make a final check that all inside welds are smooth and free of burrs, and that there are no chips, weld slag, MIG wire, dust or debris remaining in the pipe. Thoroughly blow all debris out the pipe with an air compressor before reinstalling the pipe into the vehicle. Weld on the new gasket seat and spring tabs. The gasket seat is only welded on the back side, providing a clean surface for the gasket to seal against. Tack all around before welding the full bead to make sure the ring doesn’t move during welding. www.AEROCHARGER.com (913) 829-3400 [email protected] www.AEROCHARGER.com (913) 829-3400 [email protected] 19 | E-TEC 600 & 800 Turbo System Installation Manual Aerocharger Turbo Systems | 20 XI.

The included template provides suggestions for locating the holes, but they can be drilled wherever desired. De-burr the plastic to keep debris out of the turbo. powered. Uninstall the o2 sensor from the muffler and unplug it from the AFR gauge. Start the sled. 21.2 The AFR Gauge will enter setup mode and display an “E2” error message. Turn off the sled and wait several moments for the vehicle to completely power down. Aerocharger Turbo Systems | 36 21.3 Reconnect the AFR harness to the o2 sensor, but leave the sensor uninstalled in order to calibrate it to open air. 21.4 Start the sled again. The gauge will now display “Htr.” After 30 seconds, it will display “Cal,” and then read “22.4” indicating it has been calibrated to the atmosphere. The AFR calibration procedure is complete, and the o2 sensor can now be screwed back into the muffler. XXII. COMPLETING THE INSTALL 22.1 Review the install.

TURBO REEDS A. FUELING A set of Turbo Reeds are provided to replace the stock outer reeds. The traditional “double-stack method” can also be used for forced-induction. By stacking reeds with the halved outer reeds, the opening action is not slowed and throttle response stays snappy. The extra reed layer will add stiffness to the reeds as they open to the fullest extent, preventing them from striking the case. DOUBLE-STACK METHOD: 1. Remove the old set of reeds and cut off half the length of the petals with a razor blade. 2. Install the half-reeds on the outside of the outer reeds on your new reed cage/petals. When troubleshooting, always check the reeds for chipping and wear. Worn reeds can cause many symptoms of poor performance. D. AEROCHARGER MAINTENANCE Aerocharger boost springs are used to set the boost pressure. Every Aerocharger is shipped with a green 5 PSI spring already installed. Available springs include: 5 PSI GREEN 8 PSI BLUE ORANGE 6 PSI GREEN BLUE BLUE 9 PSI ORANGE 7 PSI 11+ PSI ALWAYS pay attention to the engine’s performance, and carefully listen for signs of detonation which could be an indication that higher octane fuel is required.

Adjusting the CVT clutch is critical for the turbo system to function with full power and reliability. A clutch setup is included with this system, and includes ramps, weights, primary spring, helix, and gearing. Aerocharger’s recommended settings are included to offer a baseline setup for the snowmobile. Additional configuration may be necessary to fine-tune clutch performance to specific riding areas and boost setups. INTEGRATED BOOST CONTROLLER The Integrated boost controller on the Aerocharger is a simple mechanical actuator where pressure in a chamber pushes against a spring to move the vanes. It can be easily disassembled to adjust the boost by changing springs and/or shims. Manual & electronic boost controllers are compatible with Aerocharger systems, but are not recommended. E. AFR GAUGE GUIDELINES • AFR numbers are most important to monitor when the engine is under heavy load, such as heavy acceleration or climbing a hill. • Monitor your air/fuel ratio to ensure that it stays below 12.8 when the engine is under heavy load. • The AFR will spike to very lean levels when decelerating. This is normal. • Sensors should be periodically recalibrated. Always completely remove the sensor from the pipe to get an accurate reading. Specialized OEM tools are required to installation and adjustment of the vehicle’s clutching. If you do not have the proper tools or experience to adjust the clutching on your E-TEC, take the vehicle to a qualified performance shop or dealer.

PN # 66335 PN # 66337 CONTROLLER BONNET Many factors play a role in octane requirements, such as elevation, air density, temperature, and tolerances specific to the motor. This Octane Chart is intended to offer a rough guideline for the octane levels that an Aerocharged sled will require based on typical circumstances. Aerochargers consume oil throughout their use. The amount of oil consumed is very small, and the oil level must only be checked once a year or every 30,000 miles. Aerocharger oil never has to be changed - only added. There is no benefit to changing the oil unless it has been contaminated with a foreign substance, such as if the vehicle has been underwater for a long time. BOOST FITTING JAM NUT BLACK SPRING SHIMS OIL LEVELS The Aerocharger is a sophisticated and highly efficient variable vane turbocharger. Unlike conventional turbos, it does not require oil pumps or lines. The Aerocharger will not need more maintenance than any other turbo - this graphic contains information for adjusting the Aerocharger to ensure best performance.

INNOVATE MTX-L AFR GAUGE ERROR CODES F. AEROCOMMANDER FUEL CONTROLLER There are 6 adjustable modes that can be used to fine-tune this system for personal preference and to specific engine variances. The controller is preset for typical conditions, and further adjustment is usually not necessary. If major adjustments on the fuel controller are required to resolve performance issues, this might indicate a problem elsewhere in the system - contact an Aerocharger tech to review the install and setup. FUEL CONTROLLER ADJUSTMENTS The following modes are programming modes, and are valid only while the controller is being adjustedthe controller will display differently while the snowmobile is being ridden. Press the mode button to scroll through the programming modes. The first 3 modes are for fine-tune adjustments. 1. Green Mode: This mode controls how much fuel is being added under low RPM conditions. (0-4900 RPM). For cruising at low RPM or riding downhill. 2. Yellow Mode: Controls how much fuel is being added in the mid RPM range of the powerband. (4900-6500 RPM). For typical trail riding. 3. Red Mode: Controls how much fuel is being added at the top of the RPM range. (6500Max RPM). For high speed cruise to wide open throttle. When the Blue light turns on while riding, it indicates that the Aerocharger is making boost. The following modes control fuel delivery while boosting: 4. Green and Blue: This is the fuel added when the blue light first turns on and boost is initially produced. This mode rarely needs adjustment. 5. Yellow and Blue: The maximum fuel added while under full boost. Adjust this mode if the sled is lean or rich while at wide open throttle, or at high load conditions under boost. This mode is also useful for large changes in elevation. 6. Red and Blue: This determines which psi the Blue light turns on, and extra fuel is first added to compensate for boost. Adjusting this mode up will delay the initial fuel increase under boost. This mode can be adjusted for crisper engine response. NOTE: Read the warning below. FUELING TIPS AND TRICKS Here are several techniques for tuning with the 2. The Red and Blue mode can be adjusted to Aerocommander. The fuel controller can be create snappier throttle response for climbing adjusted to fine-tune performance if desired, but the hills. Adjusting this mode to the right will default settings can be left alone for everyday riding. reduce fuel in the midrange throttle band and improve throttle response. 1. The Yellow/Blue mode is the most frequentlyWARNING: Sustained cruising while this adjusted mode - 90% of all tuning can be mode is set lean can cause damage to your completed here. This mode controls fueling engine. Always make sure this mode is set to at wide open throttle under boost. If the sled the default for all trail-riding. is lean at wide open throttle, move the lights to the right in yellow/blue mode to add more fuel. Adjust this mode for large changes in elevation (5000’ or more) or when setting the Aerocharger for higher boost. www.AEROCHARGER.com (913) 829-3400 [email protected] www.AEROCHARGER.com (913) 829-3400 [email protected] 41 | E-TEC 600 & 800 Turbo System Installation Manual H.
