Description

Obliterate the Competition!

The 2020 Can Am X3 RR is Such an Amazing Machine, it Deserved an Enhanced EVP Dyno Testing & Field Testing Regimen in Order to Bring You Only THE Best Tunes Available, Anywhere.

Field testing the beta stock injector and stock turbo tunes was started in St Anthony, ID. Conditions could not have been worse for a SXS. 93 Degrees F and 5500' elevation created a density altitude of 9300'. Once we proved the tunes there, we drove straight to Glamis, CA for some of the worst torture testing we have ever done on any vehicle previously. First we filled up our X3 with poor California 91 Octane fuel and with ambient temperatures at 110 Deg F, we ran each tune on both Oldsmobile and at the Sand Drags over and over again. We are confident our tuning is the most thoroughly tested in the industry.

Podium proven time and time again, we relentlessly test and push limits to ensure our riders get the horsepower, boost and performance they CRAVE! Various power levels and performance tunes are available for both Stock and Big Injectors. See the charts below to help choose which Stage is right for you.

All our heavy tune development is performed on our engine dyno rather than a wheel dyno. We do this for two reasons; First, an engine dyno removes the CVT drive system from the tuning equation. The CVT will always try to keep the engine REVs at within a narrow RPM range during a power sweep whereas our engine dyno can sweep the entire operating range of the engine. Secondly, the engine dyno can hold RPM's at very specific values which allows us to tune those areas, throttle openings and load levels without the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) varying the load and RPM.

Tuning the engine outside of the CVT allows us to deliver a more refined tune and eliminates all of the variables (tire size, clutching, strap tension, etc) which result in the incredible spectrum of dyno figures published for this vehicle. For example, the stated dyno numbers for a bone stock 2020 X3 RR among our shop and others varied by over 20 WHP! All vehicles were tested on the same manufacturer dyno. This is ridiculous!

The factory rates the power of their engines at the crank and we do too. You can see from our dyno graphs that the power curves are extremely flat - in fact our tunes make within 6 horsepower of peak power over a 1200 rpm range! This means that even if your clutching is 500 or more RPMs off, your X3 will be sacrificing only a few ponies!

Tune Features:

• Revised intercooler fan settings - Makes the OEM intercooler far more effective!
• Left foot braking enabled for 2 foot operation
• Improved boost response / low to midrange power improvements
• Speed limits raised / TQ limits removed in Low & High Gear
• Low & High Gear rev limit increased from 8300 to 9000 RPMS
• Speed limiter raised
• Improved throttle response in all modes (E-Gas Settings Improved) - Linear throttle rather than the lazy pedal the factory has programmed
• Radiator cooling fan triggered sooner to keep coolant temperature in check on hot days and long pulls
• Race Start ‚Äì No need to press the brake to start vehicle
• Fueling is corrected for the various stages so no fuel controllers are needed
• Wheel Dyno Tested - Engine Dyno Tested
• High Elevation Tested - Glamis / Dumont Extreme Heat Tested
• More Boost!
• Industry exclusive 2-Step Launch Control available!

Big Injector Stage Tune Details:

For all Stage 4 Tunes and higher (22+ lbs of boost) we highly recommend our Plenum Reinforcement Brace or Torrent-F Intake Plenum!

Stage 4 X100 and Stage 5 E85

• Make 245 Crank HP!
• These tunes are extremely potent and refined and do not need any additional hardware except for our EVP Big Injectors and Adapter HarnessesClutching highly recommended

Stage 5 X85

• This tune is on an entirely different level - Making nearly 27 lbs of boost at sea level and 255 crank horsepower! That's about the same power level as our 2017-2019 Stage 6 Big Turbo kit!
• Requires our direct replacement Fuel Pump Upgrade Kit and Plug-n-Play Wiring Harness Relay. The OEM fuel pump is a very low capacity, low pressure 155 liter per hour pump which is not capable of supplying enough fuel for the X85 upgrade at 27 lbs of boost. Our pump is a 265 liter per hour, high pressure pump that is used in our Big Turbo Systems.

Note: Due to the limitations of the factory 2020RR turbocharger, all rated boost pressures are at sea level and modest air temperatures.

Development

Extensive testing over the past 5 months has been conducted throughout the USA and Mexico in the harshest conditions including Glamis / Dumont in the summer, Baja Mexico, St. Anthony Idaho and throughout the Midwest. Our big Injector tuned 2020 X3 Turbo RR’s have WON many races during the beta testing phase including desert racing, short course and drag racing. Our 2020 RR Tunes placed 1-2-3 at the Liwa International Festival 2020 - Moreeb Dune short course in Abu Dhabi and first 1-2 in the drag race event. Our commitment to providing the best tunes for this platform is evident in our unrivaled dedication to testing and racing in these harsh conditions.

Testing and tuning the 2020 Maverick X3 Turbo RR has been a tremendous amount of work and we are excited to have our customers experience what we have been working on. Besides the extensive testing, we have been working on a new engine dyno setup for the X3 and we are pleased to announce our power ratings at the crankshaft. This allows a true comparison of power differences as compared to stock with our unique new dyno setup. Listed below are more details about our decision to test with the engine dyno.

EVP is committed to pushing the envelope in terms of tune drivability and absolute maximum power given various components. With an engine dyno, we can sweep the entire operating rpm of the engine, hold a specific rpm, vary the load at different rpms and simulate virtually any operating condition outside of the CVT transmission. The CVT can mask running issues at various rpms because the load continuously changes. Wheel dyno power numbers can also vary with tire diameter, tire contact with the drum, worn belts, incorrect clutching, etc. The OEM’s manufacturers rate their tunes at the crank and with our new engine dyno setup, we will provide this data as well! This change is not easy as it is FAR more time-consuming to setup the engine dyno, but our customers deserve the best and this change demonstrates our commitment to this X3 platform and our dominance in providing the best UTV tuning available.

Tuning this beast started in Sturgis, SD in early August 2019 for some high altitude calibrations and testing while simultaneously remote tuning an identical X3 RR on one of our wheel dynos in Phoenix, AZ. This allowed us to make rapid development on early tuning files. Our 2020 RR was then brought back to our facility in Wisconsin where it was joined by a second development X3 XMR RR (aka the Green Machine).

Field testing the beta stock injector, stock turbo tunes was started in St Anthony, ID. Conditions could not have been worse for a SXS. 93 Degrees F and 5500' elevation created a density altitude of 9300'. Once we proved the tunes there, we then drove straight to Glamis, CA and did the worst torture testing we have ever done on any vehicle previously. First we filled up our X3 with poor California 91 Octane fuel. With ambient temperatures at 110 Deg F, we ran each tune on both Oldsmobile and at the sand drags over and over again. We are confident our tuning is the most thoroughly tested in the industry.

Additional Information

We don't throw around terms like industry leading without the winning proof. We own a constantly evolving fleet of cars which allows us to do parallel development on stock turbo consumer tunes and race-prepped vehicles to develop only the best engineered and designed products and software.

Our in-house race team, EVP Racing, not only competes with our own shop-built cars (ever heard of the Desert Storm & Hustler?) which consistently bring home wins, but the team also works as Race Support to many top racers in the industry such Marc Burnett, Dustin Jones, Kyle Chaney, Tim Farr, Lonestar, Matt Burroughs, Elliot Burns, Casey Scherer and others. 6 out of the top 10 drivers in the Lucas Oil Midwest series used EVP tunes & products to help get them to the podium. EVP programming and products are also used by top drivers in GNCC, BITD and SCORE race series with countless podiums.
