I have a 2002 TrailBlazer , maybe 7 hrs. on it. I like the machine but I wish it had just a little more snap off the get go. or even act like it wants to lift the front tires off the ground when I hammer the throttle. But here is my question and I am real confused and not to mention stupid in this area. I was thinking about getting a clutch kit. ( don'tknow which one is the right one for me ). But I had heard if I do add a different clutch kit to it that I could be causing problems to the engine because then I will be making the machine run at higher rpms. Don't know if I was getting my chain pulled or if it the truth. Also I heard if I add an aftermarket clutch kit to it I void the warranty. Can I add just a different exhaust system to it to give me what I am looking for, and if so which one. I live in Iowa and really all I do is climb hills and run around dirt tracks. Or right now this time of year MUD tracks. Let me know what you guys think.

Thanks

 

That's not a stupid question at all.

I am sure that you could clutch your machine to run higher RPM's than it should, but if you talk to Rick Ritter at RcR (www.rittercycle.com) or HPD (www.hpd-inc.com) they can get you set up with a kit specifically designed for your quad (and even your riding style).

A clutch kit would be a good place to start, unfortunatly I don't know how the Warranty issue works.

I'm sure someone else has some answers for you.

Good luck,

Like Piranha said, that's not a stupid question. Everyone started at the dealer at one time or another (unless you bought used). Generally people are here to help.

I think a clutch kit will void it, that is what my dealer told me anyway. Uflg95 works for a polaris dealership,i'm sure he can fill you in on the clutch and exhaust info as far as the warranty goes.

 

My dealer told me that almost nothing will void the entire warranty. The clutch mods might void the part of the warranty to the clutch.

The dealer said even porting will only void the warranty part that covers the cylinder, or any damage cause by it.
