Double Down Review

I got my Double Down installed Friday night and got to test it out Saturday a bit..

Installation:

The install was pretty easy and quick. Didn’t measure on the air box lid for the holes, just put the cylinders on the corners where they laid flat and marked the center. When it came to the box of the bed, I used the measurements given. I am a little confused with the seal kit. I got the black gasket in on the main air box, but the lid gasket (red gasket) seemed to be too small and not sure how to install it. Also the outer wear screens I was not sure where to install those.

Noise:

At idle I did not notice any difference in noise. From 0-20, I notice noise. Throaty grumble. not loud, just noticeable. I love the sound of it. from about 30 and up you it sounds like there is an exhaust in the cab, but its just the tubes sucking air. Little different from what I was used to, but after some time riding, I got used to it and liked the noise it made. Still would be able to talk over it and hear music over it.

Performance:

The biggest gains I noticed was from 40 mph to 60 mph. This thing pulled hard from 40-60 and was there in no time. I did have a new Gates belt on, so im not sure if it was the belt or intake, and was a fresh top end. Never tried hitting top speed.

Stopping Dirt. I sprayed some air filter sticky stuff on the foam pre filter that that comes with the kit, and checked my air filter after the ride. The pre foam filter was very dirty, and the stock paper filter was pretty good. Wasn’t bright white like new but didn’t seem to have sand falling out of it.

I like the kit so far. Just want to figure out how to install the outter wears and the red gasket. I hope it keeps dirt out of the motor and my air filters a little cleaner. I have only had it on one ride. Didn’t run my rzr very hard tho.

Question tho, with the foam pre filter, can I unsnap the foam from the plastic and wash it?? do you sell a replacement foam pre filter?

Baja Cross Tires

Has anyone had problems with these stock tires that came on the 900 xp’s?? I have seen a few reviews where people love them, but I hate these things. They are terrible in the winter time on snow and ice, They are terrible in the mud, and finding out they aren’t so great on gravel.. they will not hook up for anything. Running the recommended PSI, and even lower PSI on the snow/ice.

That being said how much would these tires be worth? about 85% or better tread on them. Might be selling them soon if anyone is interested.

Ive got a 2014 rzr xp 900 with only 75 miles i had a code today of 0520231 with a 7 under it, i started it up for the first time today and when i took off, it died and the check engine light came on, i started it again and the same thing happened, i started it the next time and it ran fine ,but that trouble code was set.

Rear Net Options

I’m looking for a windbreak/rear net for my 2014 900. The only one I can find is the Racing style with 2" x 2" squares. I know Can-am makes one that is mesh almost like a screen door. Do they make one for Polaris that anyone knows about…. Please advise

RZR 900 exhaust glow

I am looking for some help with my RZR 900XP. I have made the following modifications, 975 big bore kit from team alba, 12.5:1 pistons, stage 2 cam from team alba, Carrillo rods, Dragon fire dual exhaust, Dobec Gen 4 controller.
Controller settings:
idle light cruise set to as rich as the controller allows, shows 16+ lean when at idle
Cruising 13.5
full throttle 12.5
Acceleration 11.5

It also has a clutch kit from team alba
Problem the exhaust glows red after a little driving, backfires out the exhaust at low speed
Does not return to idle after hard acceleration, wants to stay at 3500 rpm until the brakes are hit.
It would seem to be running very lean but the AFR gauge shows the setpoints put in when in closed loop, cruising and full throttle.
Any suggestions to help me figure this out would be appreciated.
