You'll do great with that just the way it sits!
Not an ETec its an ACE 4 stroke.
After putzing around the yard & field for a total of 4km I'm almost keen to get it stuck to see what it will drive out of. The throttle is so smooth, the clutch engages at low RPM so it doesn't dig when it hooks up. Throw it in reverse & the back of the track articulates to let you go backwards with out going down.
Really quiet, until this sled I've never heard a track turning, usually I just hear the roar of 2 stroke.
The thing stinks like mad though, I've got to go burn the oils & crap off the motor & exhaust system.
I highly doubt I'll ever turbo it, fucking with small engines is just asking for maintenance issues and headaches.
You are what you eat.
