Maverick X3 Wastegate Adjustment

[@ProTurbo1988]

thank you, great video

[@rick3446]

Great video. I’ve been playing with my HP tuner on my X.3 but can’t seem to figure out which value to use since it shows like four of them but that’s beside the point. I bumped up my wastegate pressure to 8 on my stock 172 horse and my boost pressure came up to a little over 15. I’ve got a wide band O2 sensor in it and a boost gauge so I can watch it and everything looks great if anything is running a rich on the top end @ 10.83 A/F. If I bumped it to 8 on the wastegate on a stock system is that about right for Boost to be 15 psi? Even with 1 maybe 1 1/2 extra psi of boost it goes liked a raped ape. If you going like 20 mph hours and punch it the back tires spin instantly. (14x10x32 SUPATV Warriors) Thanks

Add preload adds boost and remove preload removes boost?

[@reneulloa2437]

How many turns from stock on the wastegate adjuster

[@duneme]

Good instruction!

[@EricTanksley]

Just did mine per my 3R instructions Very easy to do and worked great. Great video 👍

[@DukesofoffroadHazzard]

What is your crack pressure set to with the 3R tune? Is it 3R 91 octane tune?

[@EricTanksley]

@@DukesofoffroadHazzard 3R 93 tune. And I don’t remember. It’s been almost 5 years 😆

[@ISAACP_THEGUTTERGUY]

Does it hurt the stock 120 HP to up the waste gate pressure or should I only do that with a tune

[@therowdyboysnetwork2827]

Only with tune

[@ISAACP_THEGUTTERGUY]

@@therowdyboysnetwork2827 thanks

[@therowdyboysnetwork2827]

Aftermarket assassins sells a 155 horsepower tune that doesn’t require a intercooler or a crack pressure adjustment

[@ISAACP_THEGUTTERGUY]

@@therowdyboysnetwork2827 oh dope ill check that out. I was thinking of going evo

[@scottscott5301]

Will this help with the noise that comes into play at 5000 to 5300 RPMs? Or do you guys know of a fix for this noise that sounds like a loose heat shield? The dealer told us that this is a known issue but no fix.

[@siwyenterprise]

Scott Scott got the same issue at 5345 rpms

[@low602]

Put a big worm clamp over all exhaust springs and tighten it it's the springs vibrating as at high rpms

[@artmota7937]

Doing a stage 3 on 2019 x3 ecu flash on .sending it in ? do you adj the the boost and crack pressure yourself or is it a flash then plug and play kinda thing?

[@gsrhatch14]

I swear these people never answer shit

[@chrisgoetz2789]

@@gsrhatch14 don't explain very well either lol but yes Art you adjust it at home yourself.

[@wolftear2000]

hi . i want to use stage 4i and my octane is 95 . so wich number of psi i must be used to my maverick x3

[@dlx3200]

Can this be done with an 2015 can am maverick xds turbo? I have it flashed for 12 psi but never check my wg.

[@eljotas_elis_lithuanian]

Hello, we did ecu reflash for our can am maverick 1000r turbo 2016. That was Stage 3 +33.7 HP @ 13psi from PwrTune. Can be wastegate adjustment on this ecu reflash tuning or not? If it can then how much PSI it should be Set on wastegate? Thanks

[@Davesmusic86]

Do you have a link to the tool used here? Thanks.

[@GundayFunday]

So will the machine run better if you turn it down to 6 psi like you said or will it slow it down? Thanks

[@MidwestUTV]

A factory machine with the stock tune will run the best with 6 psi because all the fuel parameters are set for that amount of boost. If these things are off by a little bit you can see a little decrease in performance because the fuel and timing will be off for other amounts of boost. It will not be a big difference if your only off by 1 psi but the machine will run the best with proper boost pressure.

[@PlebeRF]

When you say stock tune, it means no tune at all? Thanks

[@maxgoroshko869]

Hello! Can you please tell us what should be the pressure in the configuration (fuel pump 2018 + ECU Stage 1) and with the configuration (fuel pump 2018, full exhaust, large intake + valve BOV, ventilator intercooler 2018 and ECU Stage 3R)? Thank you!!!!

[@EvolutionPowersports]

7 psi

[@maxgoroshko869]

Thanks for a very quick answer to the question! And if you can, one more question, which octane number of fuel is optimal for these configurations? Thank you!

[@EvolutionPowersports]

Stages 1-3 are required to run a minimum of 95 RON. 97-98 RON is ideal

[@gzararide1671]

hI MY FRIEND! question ....what i gain increaseing the preload or reducing it???

[@EvolutionPowersports]

the preload should be set at 6 psi. Without having a different ECU tne, you should not adjust it beyond 6psi

[@gzararide1671]

the machine comes with 7 psi(stock) but, it runs Better at 6 psi right?. Now my x3 is stage 3 by evolution (injectors, heater, ecu reflash) What Boost would be better for this stage??

[@EvolutionPowersports]

what octane fuel are you using? What stage tune are you using?

[@gzararide1671]

97oct... and it's tuned with stage3(injectors, ecu reflash, delite cat)

[@EvolutionPowersports]

6 psi wastegate is fine

[@maxgoroshko869]

Hello. Tell me, please, how does your tuning work with standard eco and sports modes? I have a firmware stage 3R on the Maverick X3 2017. And my car in eco mode is losing in the overclocking of the fully stock Maverick X3 XRC, and on the sport mode, it keeps at about the same level! (your tuning is installed: full exhaust, fuel pump 2018 and branch pipes with BOW, firmware ECU stage 3R) Are such poor results in overclocking possible due to the stock variator? Thank you!

[@EvolutionPowersports]

Max Goroshko please contact [e-mail] directly.

[@mrtosh]

how about with a stage 1-3 tune? should it be at 6 psi? is it common for these to be off from the factory?

[@EvolutionPowersports]

Stock should be set at 5.5-6 lbs

[@David-in7de]

Mine will not move even when applying 20 of vacuum. It is vacuum and not pressure correct?

[@mrtosh]

David 1000 its pressure.

[@nicklb0043]

I can't get the waste gate to move when I check it. Even at 25psi it will not move at all.

[@EvolutionPowersports]

Are you using vacuum or pressure to test it?

[@psaltiveri]

Hi, I'm having the same issue with a vacuum hand pump, should I use a pressure one? If I do not have access to one, what other tool can I use?

[@mrtosh]

You have to use pressure.
