POLARIS SLINGSHOT SERVICES
Recently we started to provide some services and parts/installs on the equally if not more thrilling,open air roadster, the  Polaris Slingshot. Since the introduction of the Polaris Slingshot to the market place in 2014 as a 2015 model, the Polaris slingshot has been turning heads. The 2015-2019 SS was powered by the toughest 4 cylinder work horse of the General Motors line up ,the  2.4L Ecotech (LE-5/ LE-9) producing 173 horsepower and 166 torque and only weighing 1748 lbs makes for a thrilling ride. With a Porsche like power to weight ratio and a plethora of cheap GM service/performance parts, it only makes sense to dove further into the mad science of this backwards trike.

So down the rabbit hole we go. 

FURTHER DOWN THE RABIT HOLE
In 2020 Polaris ditched the trusty bulletproof GM power plant for it own design called the Prostar, with a higher redline and nearly 30 more horsepower from the smaller 2.0 liter (R model) Polaris engine. Sacrificing some 22 ft. lbs. of torque compared to the 2.4 GM, not always a bad thing when you have one wheel delivering power. It just so happens the 2.0 liter is the first 4 cylinder engine Polaris has ever produced!

The Prostar comes In two versions , one with 203 horsepower at 8500 rpm and 144 torque and the other 178 horsepower. How reliable is it? So far so good from the word on the street but only time will tell. Even though the new 2.0 liter Prostar in the R trim level makes more horsepower then the trusty GM 2.4 liter Ecotech, doesn’t mean it’s a better choice just yet. The Prostar hasn’t been in production long enough for the aftermarket to produce a plethora of service parts, exhausts and turbos, superchargers and other general bolt on goodies. Besides the lack of the Prostar aftermarket presence, is the price of replacement engine parts if something with the new engine fails.

Polaris dealership prices can be pretty steep if you haven’t experienced it. With the 2.4 Ecotech being around for many years in the market, one can go down to the local hillbilly parts zone and get much cheaper parts then the dealership can provide. 

All that being said, you can’t go wrong with the adult go-cart, 2015 or 2021.
