I started playing w/ my sled this year, 1st I was having a low end bog that i chased (found it in the clutch) changed gears, 53 deg. helix, springs in the primary and sec., and weights. Now I am getting great hole shots, but it is shifting too quick (i think.) The skis come off the ground for the first 5 ft. then it bogs, then midrange hooks up awsome! any suggestions? ???

You need more preload on your secondary, either move the spring up one hole or give another rotation on the helix. Just don't put on too much.

I am already @ the second to the last hole, and don't like running on the outside holes, do u think I should get a stiffer spring? (using red right now)

Go back a hole and put another revolution on the helix. Is the spring new?

I'am no clutch expert but you are shifting out to fast. I would say it's one of two things: 1, like the rest said or 2 the helix angle is to steep, so try a 50 if a tighter preload wont work.

Whats going on with the RPM when you sled starts to bog!!
How far is the RPM droping? Is your max RPM OK?
