Most powerful Rotax engine

[eddieshep999]

BRP state this is their most powerful Rotax engine
1630 ACE ENGINESupercharged with an external intercooler, the Advanced Combustion EfficiencyAC)technologydelivers high effic amazing acceleration. This is the most powerful engine on a Sea-Doo, ever

Although they use it in their Sea-Doo, Wonder if we will ever see this in a Spyder

I doubt that you'd ever see the 300 horsepower version in a street-going version...
Between sound and emission regulations; they'd really have to put a muzzle on this monster. nojoke
NOTE: It IS supercharged!! :bowdown:
But it IS fun to see what they can do! :clap:

(Even a 170 or so horsepower version would be cool...)

I did note that they're only spinning it at 8,000 rpm. That's even below our very own 8,100 rpm limit. :thumbup:

Cool. ..

Although the cost of adding the transmission could slow things down and the space needed. They do have the lower hp models they could offer at least in the V-twin's like the ones used by aprilla motorcycles (140+)...Sadly I am past the "wanting more horsepower than I could ever use" stage...:roflblack:

If BRP would put something close to this in their RT and F-3's there would be a WHOLE lot of upgrading going on; Oh Yeh there would!!!!!!!:yes::yes::clap::clap::thumbup::thumbup:hyea:hyea:hyea:hyea::chat:nojoke

Ps: now that the wife left to run an errand, one of those would be mine in a heartbeat!

Not enticing enough for me at this time. :thumbup:

Please note that he HP rating is metric!

I thought American standards are horsepower HP and European standards are kilowatts KW

Not again

I bought a 2012 with the 998 and than they release the 1330. I just bought the 1330 (waiting on delivery) and now they are talking 1503 or better. I can never get ahead of the game. LOL

That is a marine motor. Same issue as with the 255HP skidoo motors.... They produce that power but you have to remember that they use fresh cool water from lakes/oceans/etc to cool the engine... Something that would be very difficult to do on a Spyder without adding a bunch more cooling.

Never to old for more horse power!!!!

Well, it sure is pretty.

221 kW converts to 296 "standard" HP, and the 300 metric HP multiplied by 0.9863 equals 296 "standard" HP. I guess metric horses are about 2% smaller than U.S. horses .

300 horses, versus 296: close enough for what we do! :thumbup:

I was wondering the exact same thing. Bet it would be bear to cool it on a byke! But, if you could, what a ryde!

You ok?

Yes, Joe, I'm fine thank you for asking. I have edited my post to make what I was saying clearer. Sorry for the confusion but thanks to all who inquired. Just serious PMS!!
