2022 Polaris RZR Pro R vs 2021 Can-Am Maverick X3 Turbo RR... DYNO and DRAG RACE!

[@SXSBlog]

Pro R or Maverick X3 Max... which one do you chose? Comment below!

[@sirgriffinman]

Can't wait for you to turbo charge this unit!!!!!!

[@allmotorhash]

Can ham all day

[@JT_Funk]

Pro R every day of the week for 4 seat. 2 seat I still take my Desert Storm X3.

[@DjSubstain]

Pro R, just because I think it will become a beast further down the line. Engine upgrades, Turbo kit, motec stuff and so on. If it can hold anything like a honda k, not that I would know if it does or not, but 6-700hp is not just a dream then in a sxs without having to swap an engine and still keep it a 4 seater. Well... I'm just dreaming..

[@chriscrosley4932]

I’m goin with the X3 as I live in havasu and have seen em in action out here in the desert

Exactly. I can totally afford one but just can’t see spending that much on one. Our local dealers have markups “market adjustments” just like the auto industry is doing. I’m going to wait out until this recession hits full bore and take people to the cleaners that are hard on their luck. I’m a plumbing contractor and I can’t tell you how many rental properties i go to where the tenets haven’t paid rent in over a year but their loaded with brand newish crew cab diesels, 40’ toy haulers and side by sides.

SXSBLOG Team - Thank you for "real world" testing the new Pro R for all of us! You guys rock!

[@dellstudio10]

The 4 banger would make a cool high compression / high reving NA build. A true all motor screamer around 300HP would be a blast. We’ve seen turbos now let’s see a NA build. Or even just a nitrous build. Whatever y’all decide to do will be interesting though with having such a large displacement SxS engine.

[@justinranes3351]

That engine is already really NA performance oriented and tuned. they have the VE pretty much maxed out on that thing straight from Polaris to run 91/93 gas. The only thing you could do is swap out for lighter forged parts and do a higher compression piston but you’d have to run E85 or m5 race gas

[@AssaultOffroad]

That was the video I've been waiting for someone to make. I've seen drag races with modified X3's but that's the first one I've seen with a bone stock one. I thought for sure the X3 would take it. So much for the power to weight ratio theory lol. It just looks like the Pro R gets out of the hole way faster without the turbo lag. I wish they would've done a roll race on pavement. But that Pro R rips!! 🤘

[@jaysoniorg2950]

Power to weight isn't a theory, but an engineering fact. Unfortunately for the X3, so is turbo lag.

I would rather have a heavy duty machine that is less likely to break on the trail than a light weight machine that’s good for drag racing which matters zilch when you’re out on the trails.

[@Jerry_Drives]

Yea, can-am should be embarrassed because a machine with 700 pounds on the x3 beat it. Eventually they will offer a turbo rr As well.

[@FUCK_________googIe]

LMFAO they're still built the same, and a Pro-R will still break just as easily as the rest. Now they just charge you more for the opportunity to be forced to buy replacement parts

[@FUCK_________googIe]

@@Jerry_Drives weight doesnt matter nearly as much with a CVT because of the infinitely variable gear ratio, and the extra weight only helped make more traction, i actually expected the Pro-R to win

Agreed, all that was old is new again. "There's no replacement for displacement." ~1000 cc in a RZR Turbo R two-cylinder vs this 4 cylinder Pro R at ~2000 cc.

12.5:1 which can be done with e85, and variable cam timing. This doesn’t have vct, not to mention the hyperutectic pistons and powdered metal rods. None of those like boost, like at all. You’d have to do a complete rebuild on the bottom end to boost it

Question for the SxS Blog boys about the dyno. How do you account for gear ratio when you're running something with a CVT and can't run it as close as possible to 1:1? Or anyone who can answer that? Have always wondered about that and electric cars.

[@SXSBlog]

You just reference the power to speed as opposed to RPM.

[@rhull3939]

@@SXSBlog ok, ok, ok. That makes sense to me. I know horsepower is torque compared to rpm so I guess you can get it in the ballpark with torque compared to speed with the brainiacs dialing in the dyno for tire size and approximate gear ratio etc with a CVT. I guess it's all the same but you have to be close on the difference between engine rpm and tire RPM. Just starting to learn about this stuff and it's fascinating. Thanks for answering Leo. I know that's you. Haha. So what kind of inputs do you have to plug into the dyno to get an accurate number with a CVT?
