    Does anyone know, warranty aside, if it can be uprated to a 2050 tq or is there a hard part difference? (injectors,turbo, cam, etc.)

    11k miles on it and dissapointed to say the least. old BXS 550 pulled better.:biggrin_25513: Gonna look into uprating the torque, on the lookout for any tips or mods. Assuming theres not much with the DPF clean burn BS. if anyone has messed with one of these feel free to chime in.
    i know its gotta break in but it's pretty pathetic. Our 2010 550 ISX (same trans, gear, tire,spec, etc,) will absolutly run circles around it.

    Give it a chance to break in, my ISX didn't start running good till almost 80,000 miles! It's a 2010 450. It was a slug when it was new also.

    I understand about letting it break in, its just dissapointing cause our 2010 550 ISX runs great, and gets pretty good mileage

    Not too good. 2010 550 was great and continues to be. 2012 600 is not soo much. makes ok top end power, but the 550 will walk it pretty badly. Hopin with more mileage it will limber up some

    Have a brand new 600/2050 torque. Upgrade from a 1850. Dealer requires heavy driveline, Most notably the Heavy Transmission ( extra $2000) but is completely warrantied. Note: About $4000 dollars Can. for upgrade

    Ok, from the time I originally posted that I believe it was changed so that the X2 and X3 family get the same parts. X1, 450hp and lower do not get the same parts. You can take a X2 and take it to 600hp.
