EVP Disclaimer: An EVP CodeShooter ECU flashing device is required for all EVP Defender Turbo Systems. If you do not already own a CodeShooter, please select the proper kit. Once you receive your device, contact EVP to load your tunes and firmware.
The Can-Am Defender is one of the best utility side-by-sides available. After rigorous testing, EVP has enhanced it with 56% (DT-130) or 137% (DT-195) more power than stock, plus additional tune features that rewrite the book on Defender performance.
The EVP DT-130 and DT-195 Turbo Systems are complete bolt-on, intercooled turbo systems meticulously designed and engineered in-house using the highest quality components. The turbocharger features an OEM-style German Schwitzer oil-cooled journal bearing CHRA turbocharger properly sized for the Rotax V-Twin engine. The complete turbocharger is ceramic-coated black for a clean appearance, added durability, and better heat management to maintain exceptional exhaust velocity and responsive boost response.
All EVP Defender Turbo Systems include an intercooler assembly with an automatic intercooler fan switch programmed to power on only when the engine is running. This prevents the intercooler from draining the battery when using auxiliary functions for music and accessories. An OEM-style, dual-stage engine safety feature is incorporated into the stock ECU:
- Stage 1 Safety Strategy: Audible dash alarm alerts the driver if intake temperatures reach a critical level.
- Stage 2 Safety Strategy: Limp home mode limits RPM and torque to prevent further critical high temperatures and damage.
All EVP Defender Turbo Kits include a signature handmade exhaust system designed and built specifically for this turbo system and the HD10 platform. The handcrafted and TIG-welded exhaust is constructed from thick-walled 304 stainless steel in the U.S.A. This system provides a deep growl without being obnoxiously loud or tinny. An integrated spark arrestor is included within the muffler.
EVP Disclaimer: Clutching your vehicle is mandatory with all EVP turbo systems to meet the revised and higher operating RPM. Ensure your vehicle is equipped with the proper clutching requirements:
- DT-130 Turbo System requires EVP Shift-Tek Clutch Kit
- DT-195 Turbo System requires TAPP Primary Clutch and EVP Straight 45 Helix
- Note for XMR Defender models: EVP TAPP Primary Clutch is required, or call EVP clutching experts for guidance
