2015 RZR 170 efi Long Travel Kit
HELP cant figure out where the fuel pump line goes.
i added an image does it go into the Valve, Dual-Intake?
Simple upgrades
Outa the box I was not impressed with the 170 a bit. But after a few modifications it’s turned into a capable fun ride. We have been to hatfield and McCoy trails as well as burning rock so far and I’ve only had to pull him out twice. Below is a list of the items I installed.
23" tires w/12" rims
graphics kit
cold air intake
Raptor 660 shocks on the front
Ltr 450 shocks on the rear
Completely removed the throttle stop bolt
Windshield
Polaris canvas roof
Polaris front bumper
Raised the seat roughly 4" so he could see over steering wheel
And lastly today I dropped the tire psi down to 5lbs which greatly improved the ride quality and got a whole lot better traction.
These simple upgrades greatly improved the little rzr and allows him to ride on any green or blue trail we try. If your on the fence go for it ya won’t regret it!
Thanks to everyone on here posting the information about these upgrades. I read a ton of threads before pulling the trigger

Trying to figure out what to get my kid…
I was going to get him an Outlaw 50. But I think he’d outgrow that too quick. Then I saw the new Sportsman 110 EFI, and of course the RZR 170.
We’d really like to get a 170, so he has a role cage, and can take a friend with him. But some of the comments I read here are scaring me off of it. It seems like people say they are either trash or they are just fine.
Although it somewhat seems like those are who trashing it are tossing thousands of dollars into mods, trying to make it do something it was never inteded to do. The water problems seem real though.
The Pitster units look decent, for a lot less money, but there’s only 1 dealer 50 miles from me, so I’m a little concerned about parts availabiluty and repairs should he go out of business.
Any comments on the Sportsman 110 EFI? I would think that would be basically the same thing as the 170, but I haven’t been able to find much discussion on this ATV.

Rzr 170 DIY snorkel setup
Picked up one of these little toys for my kids. After a few rides it stalls out when it gets near water. I am very handy so i am open to doing our own DIY snorkelling of the 170.
Whats the best tutorial out there? I have lowes and hd a few minutes away.
Also, what do you guys recommend for the first upgrade to pick up some oomf? It has 23"tire kit already on it.
Thanks!
