utvgiant 30″ cree light bar install

So I’m in the middle of trying to mount the light bar on top of the utvgiant aluminum roof. I can’t for the life of me figure out how to use the brackets given from the roof and the light bar. There is no directions to show and I’ve tried 6 different ways to get this thing to fit. Please help!!

Any pics of it installed on utvgiant brand aluminum roof?

Backfiring after long rides??

My rzr 1000 has been backfiring on me for a while now. It all started with my two brothers racing exhaust. After a few rides with that is backfired like crazy..to the point where it stalled out.

I then installed a power commander programmer. That fixed it for a while. And its back again.

Heres the weird part. It only happens after riding for a long time. Eg) Ill ride for 4-6 hours without a backfire. Obviously im stopping and starting with the beer breaks and that. Then after riding all day itll backfire when im above 50ish km/h. So ill take it easy and slow down a bit. Then itll start happening at 40ish. Then lower and lower. By the time im home im pretty much limping.

Another thing. Everytime it backfires the headlights and interior lights go out. almost like all power is lost for a second. Except my light bar and stereo. They stay running.

Wtf could be causing this??

Hi Gang,

I did a lot of research and reading about heaters and other aftermarket components here on the forums and I wanted to give back in the way of a review of Motoalliance’s new compact under hood firestorm heater. I understand this to be a brand new model that they’re just coming out with in the fall of 2015 and I had an opportunity to be among the first to have one installed.
They needed a test vehicle (2014 Ranger 900 XP Deluxe) and I lent them mine for a couple weeks so they could install it. So, although I have little to add in the way of installation, I have much to offer from the end user’s perspective on this new unit. (Though, in looking at the unit, the hose, vents and wiring routing, it does look somewhat easy and well thought out)

Now that I’ve had a few weeks to truly use and test this heater, let me say that this is a very well-designed and high quality unit. Both the heater core itself along with the vents and control knob look absolutely OEM and in no way look like it doesn’t belong. Aesthetics were important to me and I was actually leaning in the direction of the $800 Polaris unit because of this. However, the Motoalliance unit is really unobtrusive and "clean" looking with only a single fan speed control knob mounted to the bottom left of the center dash. The heater itself is made of high quality materials and a heavier gauge plastic with a nice fit and finish to it. Same goes for the wiring, hoses, venting and other parts. It doesn’t look cheaply made.
The heater isn’t actually mounted under the hood as the model name suggests, it’s actually tucked neatly away up under the dash on the passenger’s side and is only noticeable if you put your head up under there and look for it. Same goes for the floor vents; they just look like they belong with the vehicle and not the tacky sort of aftermarket unit heaters that I was considering before linking up with Motoalliance.
The unit gets its heat from the engine coolant and includes a thermostat bypass which sends coolant to the heater even if the thermostat is shut off. So, that means even if the motor isn’t up to temp, you’re able to get hot air coming from the vents in about a minute- no kidding, it’s really that fast. It’s pretty easy to compare this to my truck’s heater functions and not other tractor or UTV heaters I’ve used as it gets hot so quickly and looks so clean.
The control knob has 3 speeds, the high will heat you up quickly and I usually turn it to low or off rather quickly as the new cab system really retains the heat quite well. There are also 2 dash mounted defrost vents that you are able to swivel and direct the flow of air quite nicely. It should work very well removing the inevitable fog that occurs when I plow. Though it’s only been in the low 50’s when I test this, I can tell it will be very toasty when it drops into the teens and single digits.
The only conceivable downside this this heater over the true Polaris OEM option (or other Motoalliance models) is the lack of a temp control knob. This is all or nothing and when I spoke with the engineers about this, it’s clear they really did think this through and the necessary linkage additions and added complexities negated the benefit that this would offer. Plus, this looks a bit cleaner than 2 separate knobs and I find it to be a non-event for me.
I’ve added a few pictures that show the final installed unit; forgive the filth and low quality image. I did my best to place the camera in a spot which captures as much component detail as possible.

So, in short I’d enthusiastically recommend this heater to anybody who is considering a heater for their Ranger. It’s a high-quality unit, it looks clean and OEM once installed and you no longer have to worry about foggy windows or freezing your tail off during the winter months. I’ll also add that the team at Motoalliance has been wonderful to work with and anytime I’ve called with questions (I’ve owned 3 of their winches and one of their plows), they have bent over backwards to help me out. It’s a great company!

Happy to answer any questions should you have any.
Thanks!

Turbo kit research

I am still looking at turbo kits as there are many out there to choose from.

Would like to here from anybody running one of these kits.

I will be installing myself so bolt and go is a must.

I like the OSP kit for the price but don’t like how the intercooler pipe is plumbed in the drivers cab, lots of heat.

The Packard turbo kit for about same price looks interesting that they put the turbo at the back of the RZR. I would think it would run a lot cooler keeping all the heat from under the bed.
Also the size of the intercooler would not block the rear view much.

Here is a picture of the Packard turbo if you have not seen it.
