UTV Wastegates

UTV Wastegate Kits for RZR XP Turbo and Can-Am

The wastegate actuator is one of the most overlooked parts on a turbocharged UTV. It controls how much exhaust pressure reaches the turbo, and when it wears out, the symptoms are easy to misdiagnose. Springs age with more run time. As they wear, crack pressure drops and you end up in a low-boost condition, resulting in less power and more heat. If your RZR turbo or Can-Am feels sluggish and temps are climbing, a worn-out wastegate actuator is often the first place to look.

Fueled UTV carries wastegate kits and actuators from Dynojet and Aftermarket Assassins for Polaris RZR XP Turbo and Can-Am models. Dynojet's Polaris wastegate kit is built for the RZR XP Turbo and lets you achieve higher boost targets with less duty cycle. The 5-11psi actuator kit can be set to a true stock PSI setting for stock RZR builds, and it adjusts up to 8psi with the installed spring, with an optional 7-11psi spring available for those who need a little more crack pressure. A separate 7-18psi wastegate kit is also available for custom applications where the tune is built specifically for a higher-pressure actuator. Dynojet's wastegate kit for Can-Am Maverick X3 follows the same principle: better control over exhaust gases than a factory wastegate, whether you're running a stock or aftermarket turbo. We also carry the Treal Performance wastegate actuator for Can-Am, a direct replacement unit with a higher pressure operating range than stock, designed for any tuned machine.

FAQ 

What does a UTV wastegate do?

The wastegate controls exhaust gas flow to the turbocharger. When crack pressure is set correctly, the valve opens at the right point to keep boost in range and prevent over-boost, protecting both the engine and the turbo.

How do I know if my wastegate actuator is worn out?

As springs age and accumulate more run time, they lose tension. The most common sign is a low boost condition resulting in less power and more heat. If your RZR XP Turbo or Can-Am feels flat and runs hot, the wastegate actuator is worth checking before anything else.

What crack pressure should I set for my RZR turbo?

Factory crack pressure on the Polaris RZR turbo is 5.5psi. If you're running AA tunes or aftermarket tunes that require a higher setting, Dynojet's Polaris wastegate kit can be adjusted from 5.5psi up to 8psi with the installed spring. A 7-11psi spring is included if you need to adjust crack pressure further, especially at higher altitudes. For custom applications with an aftermarket turbo, the 7-18psi kit gives you access to a higher pressure actuator range.

Do I need a wastegate pressure pump to install a wastegate kit?

Aftermarket Assassins and Dynojet both highly suggest adding a wastegate pressure pump to properly set the valve to the correct crack pressure. It takes the guesswork out of setup and makes it easy to adjust crack pressure on competition day or when conditions change.

What's involved in installing a wastegate kit on an RZR XP Turbo?

Installation typically takes 1 to 1.5 hours. The process requires loosening the turbo bracket and removing the oil feed line from the turbo. Instructions are included with every kit. It's a manageable job for anyone comfortable working on their machine, but having the actuator pressure pump on hand makes setup considerably cleaner.

Will Dynojet's wastegate kit work with an aftermarket turbo?

Yes. Dynojet's Polaris wastegate kit works with a stock or aftermarket turbo and gives you better control than the OEM wastegate across both setups. For those running a big turbo looking to maintain higher boost targets, the premium wastegate is designed to handle the added demand without sacrificing longevity.

Does Fueled UTV carry wastegate kits for Can-Am?

Yes. Fueled UTV carries Dynojet's wastegate kit for the Can-Am Maverick X3 and the Treal Performance upgraded wastegate actuator for Can-Am. Both are built for tuned machines and give you a higher pressure operating range than the stock unit for enjoying optimized performance without wearing through OEM parts.
