POLARIS RZR 1000 XP TUNING TIPS
ECU Tuning: Our RZR 1000 XP ECU tune totally rocks! It offers a 10.7 HP increase at peak rpm over stock. All engine protections are left in place so your engine stays running safe. Fuel and timing maps revised for peak performance on pump gas. I have found that Polaris has their factory tuning designed in order to pass strict EPA testing which causes lazy performance and high engine / exhaust temps. Our revised timing and fuel maps allow the engine to make more power with cooler piston crown and valve temps. The cooling fan on temp is lowered from 205F to 190F degrees to keep your engine running cooler and lasting longer. Rev limiter is raised to 9200 RPM, Speed limiter in high gear is eliminated, Speed limiter in low gear raised to 45 MPH. Speeds can exceed 90 MPH with this tune. Our tune also gets rid of those false misfire codes that are a common issue on this model.
Features:
100% throttle in High, Low, and Reverse Gear
All Torque Limiters Disabled
Professionally developed timing maps for peak performance on pump gas
Professionally developed fuel maps
Fan settings 20 degrees lower to keep engine running cool and lasting longer

If you are only interested in fixing the false misfire code problem but want to leave your machine stock otherwise then look at our misfire fix tune that we offer.
Clutch: Like most things there is always room for improvement. The stock clutching is functional but has lazy backshifting, inconsistant RPM and is prone to belt slippage. Awesome performance and smooth operation is had with our Blackmax Adjustable clutch kit.
The Blackmax adjustable clutch kit is AMAZING, it allows extremely quick acceleration and pull! It is very smooth yet very fast! Great belt grip, and fast backshifting. The blackmax weights allow you to adjust the clutch kit for your custom built large tire or gear reduction machine, high elevation, or to match your particular riding style. The kit Includes billet steel magnetic adjustable primary clutch weights, and primary spring. Don't forget about our mudder spring for your secondary clutch if you are running larger than 29" tires.
If your Primary clutch is worn out and needs replacement I suggest installing our HD primary clutch which comes with HD RZR 1000 internals and the super cool outer cover plate to keep clutch and belt temps lower. Don't forget to grab a clutch puller.
Secondary Clutch: Please select the optional mudder secondary spring if you are running larger than 29" tires. The mudder spring allows the secondary clutch to squeeze the belt harder under heavy load conditions to help prevent belt slippage. It is an absolute must if you are running larger than 29" tires.
2016+ Models Only: The stock BOSS secondary clutch comes with square pucks as a friction point in the clutch. They cause tremendous amount of wear on the clutch and will eventually destroy the clutch. I highly recommend you replace the square pucks with our super high quality composite rollers. Performance and longevity is much better with these rollers installed. If your secondary clutch is shot or you just want to upgrade to a much higher quality clutch then I suggest our HD Team Tied roller clutch.
The absolute best performance clutch combo that I have ever tested on a RZR 1000 XP is the SUPER clutch kit.
Belt: The stock Polaris belt is weak and cannot handle any type of stress. I have found the G-Boost belt to be the absolute best performing and longest lasting belt on the market. I highly recommend installing one!!!
Duraclutch Upgrade: If you want unparalleled belt life, and overall clutch durability I would suggest the Duraclutch kit.
