5 Performance Modifications to Take Your RZR to the Next Level

The Polaris RZR is an amazing machine right off the factory floor, but that doesn’t mean you can’t improve on it. There are lots of modifications out there for speed, power, suspension, and overall performance. With these extras, you will take on terrain and hit speeds that you didn’t think were possible.

Here are five amazing mods you can make to your RZR today, without breaking the bank.

Upgrade Your Exhaust System

Adding a new exhaust system is one of the most popular ways to improve an RZR’s performance. It is relatively inexpensive, and it provides immediate results.

With a new exhaust, your RZR will stop choking on its fumes, helping it to function more efficiently. With that modification in place, you can expect a gain of 2-3 horsepower on your Polaris RZR. If you opt for a premium HMF system you can expect that to shoot up to a gain of 4 or 5 horsepower!

In addition to the boost in horsepower, you will also experience an engine that is more responsive to the throttle. If you love the feeling of tapping the throttle and being rushed forward, an upgraded exhaust system is a great idea. A performance exhaust system also gives your RZR an incredible sound and increases its durability.

Let Your Vehicle Breathe

Another affordable modification is adding a performance air intake system to the engine of your RZR. The air intake is designed to keep out particulate matter and let in clean air – the better your air intake system, the better your engine runs. When installing an air intake you can expect to achieve gains of 1-2 horsepower. Among owners of the RZR 800, upgrading the intake is considered one of the first steps that should be taken to boost horsepower.

Kit out Your Clutch

Installing a performance clutch kit is a great way to boost your horsepower a little and completely supercharge your acceleration! A performance clutch will help transfer all of the potential power turned out by your RZR’s engine and get it down to the wheels faster. This means you can get from zero to ‘hell yes’ faster than ever before. There are a lot of clutch kits out there, and each is generally pretty good for a specific use. But one of the absolute best all-rounders has to be the Evolution Powersports Turbo Clutch Kit. The result of months of testing, this clutch kit delivers incredible power and speed right out of the gate.

Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) Module

Adding an EFI module to your Polaris RZR will see a boost of 10-20 horsepower, but its main function is to allow you to fine tune the flow of fuel in your engine. This allows you to maintain an ideal air to fuel ratio at all RPMs – if you already have an upgraded air intake system you’ll have even more control for superior performance.

Camshaft and Lifters

The final affordable performance mod you should look into for your RZR is adding a performance camshaft and lifters kit. Enhanced cam and lifters provide instant power. They are often more rugged than the stock installation and they will be able to run for longer in the higher end RPM ranges.
