“We are providing the exact equipment that Team Kawasaki rider Chris MacCluggage won the 2004 Pro Runabout World Title with,” said Dave Bamdas, owner of RIVA Racing. “RIVA is working closely with Vortech Engineering to offer the same engine and pump package that proved unstoppable at the 2004 World Finals.”



System Specifications:
Maximum Speed: 80mph
Peak Horsepower: 300~320* @ 8,400rpm
(*=optional cam shaft & exhaust extrude honing)
Supercharger: Vortech R-5
Intercooler: RIVA Power Cooler®
Engine Management: Race Mapped Mitsubishi ECU (plug-in)
Pistons: RIVA Racing Forged
Fuel Requirement: VP Jet X (MS109)
Pump: Skat-Trak 160mm/8-vein Magnum Pump
Impeller: Skat-Trak 9/17° Swirl
Intake Grate & Ride Plate: R&D Racing
Sponsons: RIVA Pro-Series

This system represents RIVA’s commitment to manufacturing and offering cutting edge products for the 4-stroke watercraft racer. As with all RIVA Performance Products, detailed installation instructions and technical assistance will be provided to support our customers and dealers.

The RIVA Racing 15F Supercharger System is scheduled for release in May of 2005. Pricing TBA at that time. System is designed for closed course racing applications only. More information will be posted as it becomes available.

For this same reason is why I desided to sell my Kawi 15F and buy the 05' SC intercooled Sea Doo RXT, if you plan to ride a ski like this one for rec' riding you would go bankrupcy sooner or later using "only" VP race gas @ $7.00 dollar/galon, but at the same time there are a few more "user friendly 93 octane pump gas aftermarket race packages" already available for the SC RXP/RXT platform that increased their engines HP to 30, 50 and 75 without using Race gas.

Valid points. But, we do provide that this kit is designed for closed course racing applications only.

We will offer kits for the 15F that can be used recreationally as well as for racing in the near future. One of which will be our 'Off-shore Kit'. It will consist of some engine modifications complimented by pump & handling components and will run on high octane pump fuel. I will post more information as it becomes available.

Understood. I have a photo shoot already planned. I'm just waiting for our Performance Development Team to receive the parts we will sending out with our kits. We're making quite a few changes so the kit will be more consumer friendly.

The ECU for our 15F Supercharger Kit isn't your average off the shelf model. It will be mapped to work only with our kit. They won't be sold separately.

I took the photo's today, but won't be able to post them right away. We have an agreement with a magazine. I will be able to post them in the coming weeks. Sorry for the delay.

Pricing won't be available for quite some time. Once the kit is completed I will post the package online with the rest of our Performance Packages. I'll post here when it's available.

BTW - Please check your PM's.

Is there a Riva Credit Card available? Eek

Can Riva design a SuperCharger kit with less HP? In such a way we can upgrade it later?

For example, if I can install the SC kit, with the same pump, impeller and pistons. Just the necessary for running the SC? maybe the SC and the ECU? like a level 1-2-3?

If you want a fast ski, you must have money $$$ for it. So keep in your little two stroke and don't dream about 4-strokes. Big Grin ja,ja
do I look familiar to you?
