Performance Engineering & Power Output
### Exhaust Flow Velocity & Turbo Response
The stock Polaris Pro XP / Turbo R muffler is heavily baffled and restrictive, trapping excessive heat near the turbocharger and rear bed area. The Mojave Eliminator utilizes an optimized internal straight-through louvered core system. By streamlining exhaust gas extraction, backpressure is significantly reduced—allowing the turbocharger to spool faster for immediate throttle response coming out of hard turns and deep sand bowls.
### Power & Weight Gains
- Horsepower Increase: Delivers a clean 3–5 HP gain over stock exhaust output.
- Thermal Management: Enhanced flow characteristics lower exhaust gas temperatures (EGTs), protecting surrounding rear bodywork and suspension components.
- Aggressive Sound Profile: Replaces the muted factory exhaust tone with a crisp, throaty twin-cylinder turbo bark.

Step-by-Step DIY Installation Guide
Installing the Vance & Hines Mojave Eliminator on your Polaris RZR Pro XP or Turbo R takes approximately 45 to 60 minutes using standard tools.
### Required Tools
- 3/8″ Drive Ratchet with 10mm, 13mm, and 15mm sockets
- Exhaust spring puller tool or heavy-duty pliers
- Torx key set (T27 / T30)
- Penetrating lubricant
### Step 1: Removal of Stock Exhaust & Rear Cover
Ensure the vehicle is completely cool. Remove the rear plastic cover panel by unscrewing the Torx fasteners and body clips. Unhook the factory exhaust retaining springs connecting the muffler to the header pipe using a spring puller tool. Remove the rear mounting bolts from the frame isolators and slide the heavy stock muffler off the vehicle.
### Step 2: Mounting the Mojave Eliminator Assembly
Inspect the factory doughnut gasket on the head pipe inlet; replace if damaged. Position the stainless steel Vance & Hines Mojave Eliminator canister onto the rear chassis isolation mounts. Secure the inlet joint using the factory retaining springs with your spring puller.
### Step 3: Installing Fascia Heat Shield & Final Alignment
Attach the included laser-cut Vance & Hines aluminum rear heat shield using the provided stainless steel hardware. Adjust the muffler canister position so the dual CNC aluminum tips sit centered in the rear fascia opening. Torque all mounting hardware firmly to factory specifications.
Frequently Asked Questions
### Is an ECU re-tune required when installing the Mojave Eliminator?
No. On an otherwise stock or mild bolt-on Polaris RZR Pro XP / Turbo R, an ECU tune is not required as the factory ECM compensates for the improved airflow. However, adding an aftermarket ECU flash will unlock additional boost and fuel optimization for maximum performance gains.
### Are the spark arrestors removable for closed-course racing?
Yes. The included USFS-approved spark arrestor screens can easily be removed using basic hand tools for competitive closed-course events where screen restriction is not required.
