It pretty quick and easy ,on the drivers side remove the hose at the turbo, also a short piece of tubieing that will slip over the plug makes it easy to remove or install your plugs , I just gaped mine per the inst. for the tuner I got from you guys ( thanks for good deal) took less than an hour all in all pretty simple about 10 mins to remove the intercooler

I thought most of the iridium plugs are not supposed to be field gapped? I’m sure EVO knows what they are talking about but I always leave the iridium plugs gapped as they come and never had a problem

@SXSBlog 6 жыл бұрын

It's mostly just to prevent people from fucking up the iridium as noted in the video. Personally I don't know for sure IF they need to be gapped but Evo has 2000+ dyno runs and infinite miles of testing so I trust them.

@SXSBlog 6 жыл бұрын

All of the sound is coming from the clutch intake behind the drivers seat. Just get some thick ass foam and shove it in there. There's SEVERAL intake spots for the cvt and it's honestly super unnecessary to even have it there. Doug's brother has been running that way since nearly day 1.

@sxsmarine4075 6 жыл бұрын

SXSBlog.com thanks I’ll try anything. Today was my first ride. the 2018 xds is amazing over my old rzr turbo. I think the x3 is alittle rougher ride on a slow ride with mom mushroom hunting but I feel so much more stable and not so damn champed up in the cab. I’m happy with it

@SXSBlog 6 жыл бұрын

Awesome! A lot can be gained by setting up the suspension to the Fox "Race tune" which essentially just raises ride height. It allows the suspension to function in the top end of the valving which is softer than the lower end.

Yup someone's gonna do it and if it's the dealership you come home broke. Lol. Now a question the X3 was gapped wrong from factory or are y'all regapping it for extra power?? PS did y'all find the 10mm

Regapping per Evos recommendations for the tune

SXSBlog.com thank you the reply I totally forgot about the tune and exhaust. Y'all were getting it at the dunes awesome job on the videos I love it when you put Doug behind the camera while y'all are in the shop Y'all play around so much as you work it's great.

The spark plug gap totally makes sense to me. I have to run a .020 gap on my plugs for Z1 wildcat. when I run higher boost levels, the turbo will blow out the spark.
