The R&D Engine Thermostat and Intercooler Cooling Kit is one stop shopping to solve several big issues with the OEM cooling system. Engine temperatures on a RXP 260 engine with performance upgrades can reach 190-195 degrees with the stock cooling system. The R&D Kit changes out the stock thermostat for a new cooler 160 degree thermostat. The R&D Kit also separates and re-routes the “intercooler out” and “engine out” water lines to allow less restriction and more water to flow through both the engines exhaust system and the intercooler which promotes cooler exhaust temperatures as well as reducing intake air temperatures. The R&D Kit also includes two new 1/2 inch water bypass fittings for the intercooler in and out lines, one to be used with the kit included high pressure relief valve, and one for the new intercooler water out line. The R&D “high pressure” relief valve will protect the intercooler from being broken due to high water pressure spikes. Cooler engine temperatures, cooler intake air temperatures, and cooler exhaust temperatures all add up to a noticeable RPM and top speed gain. By using this kit you will notice how the performance will be altered. The engine will accelerate stronger and it will pull harder. Also, the better performance of the craft will last longer during the use of the craft. It is a must have bolt on kit for those who participate in Offshore/Endrurance races or even close course.

R&D Part # 803-01510: PRO STOCK RACING W/8650/8750/8850 REV LIMIT (specify rev limit when ordering)...Works great for Pro Am Stock Class racing where peak riding rpm range will be 8450-8550. R&D suggests tuning the prop pitch and pump cone to achieve 8450-8550 rpm at full throttle. NOTE: R&D has verified the Pro Stock Tune with an 8650 rev limit produces Pro Stock Top Speeds of 76-77mph. Race gas required. Call R&D for set up and recommendation.

The R&D Boost Box for 2011-2013 Sea-Doo 260 offers a plug and play way to quickly and easily disconnect the engine management systems internal GPS speed limiter to allow an incredible five mile per hour top speed gain! The Sea-Doo 260 ECU has an internal acceleration governor and top speed governor that’s GPS controlled to only allow 67-68 mph. The GPS speed governor controls the throttle plate to modulate and restrict airflow into the intake plenum. The throttle plate modulation controls and limits the boost pressure to 7 pounds. The R&D Boost Box allows maximum boost pressure (10 PSI) to be reached by overriding the O.E.M. internal GPS speed control. With 3 pounds of boost pressure over stock settings this will allow the Sea-Doo 260 engine to accelerate better and pull harder in the upper mid range and top end with up to 5 mph speed gain. The R&D Boost Box is a vital and necessary key to unlocking and adding performance to the new Sea-Doo 260 engine platform. Whether you are a recreational enthusiasts or an offshore racers who is interested in more performance, the Boost Box is an absolute “Must Doo” Upgrade. The R&D Boost Box installs easily in 5 minutes. Part number Pt. # 803-01001

According to Steven Dauliach’s official press release, the French 4 times IJSBA Pro Ski World Champion and 4 times UAE Champion, with many more titles won in France and Europe, plans to retire at the end of the UAE 2013 Championship. There is no doubt that Dauliach is one of the greatest athletes of Pro Ski class of all time. We wish him best of luck on whatever he will be involved and we hope that he will keep in touch with the sport somehow...

The particular hood with the reverse air duct was illustrated in Jetskiworld.gr after the World Finals since Rick Roy’s boat was the only Rickter which was equipped with this hood. It is a extra air vent with the scope to provide more engine when a bigger engine is used. It is already available from Rickter Composites. Ask for price and availability.
