E-tec 800 came out last year at 163 HP and uses E-tec, which I delive is a direct injection system(no carbs). Some guys were gettign 20 MPG's. E-tec is a lot more expensive, has more things that can go wrong, lighter throttle pull(easier to start too I would imagine), adds a few pounds. |

Actually the original Powertek was used from 05 to 07, and was carburated but had electronic knock sensors, and a few more HP, about 140. In '08 the motor was completely new (the Powertek 800R). It was carburated, had a 3 stage RAVE valve, monoblock cylinders and liquid cooled crankcase. This was 155HP. In late 2010 they released the Etec, which was actually an evinrude technology. It is completely direct injected, computerized, and very oil and fuel efficient. Makes 165HP. This is the only 800 they offer now, except possibly a Summit model.
Looks like the 800R PowerTEK is only available in a Summit this year. Last year it was availabel in a TNT and Renegade. There were some GREAT prices on them as everyone was after the E-TEC. |
