An ECU tune on the Can-Am Maverick x rs or x ds 1000R Turbo is a great way to improve the performance of the 131 horsepower Rotax engine. Improving the vehicles throttle response, pull, and most importantly, horsepower is all part of what an ECU flash can do. ECU Tuning is done by altering the parameters to maximize output while keeping a safe and reliable vehicle. VR Tuned offers the best and most efficient ECU flash over all the competition. Our flashing is done via the diagnostic port as our video below explains. This allows you to flash between your stock and a tuned file. The flashing software gives you the convenience to easily flash your Can-Am and update files if necessary. Our flashing takes roughly 3 minutes compared to the competition device which takes almost 20 mins!

As tested on our Mustang AWD Dyno here in Gilbert, Arizona, the vehicle had a baseline dyno of 102 rear wheel horsepower. We typically see a 25% drivetrain loss with the CVT transmissions which puts us in range of the stock 131 horsepower to the crank. Running 91 octane fuel with an ambient temperature of around 70F, our tuned run had a peak of 113 rear wheel horsepower giving us a 11 rwhp gain. In the low range, we see a gain of 12 rwhp which stays pretty consistent throughout the rpm range. With a 25% drivetrain loss, this puts your Can-Am Maverick 1000R at 150 horsepower! Add an exhaust system and intake and expect to push near 160 horsepower.

Crank Horsepower Ratings:

  • Stock 131hp
  • Tuned 150hp

ECU Flash Options:

  • Vmax Off - This is an increase or reduction of the maximum speed limit.
  • Increase Rev Limit - Raise the rev limit higher than the factory setting. Will not work if controlled by TCU.
  • Race Exhaust - This option is for those running full race exhaust systems.
  • DTC OFF - This option is to delete Trouble Code (DTC) related to the engine. You provide us the code.
  • Enhanced throttle response for electronic throttle vehicles.
  • Some options are not available for different software version of the vehicle. We cannot know this until the factory ECU read is uploaded. If a feature is not available that is extra, we will refund you that amount. Certain vehicles may require upgrading clutching. Wheel and tire size can also effect speed and rpm limits. We do guarantee to provide you with the best possible performance tune.

How to Flash Your ECU?

Then prepare the new tuned file and write it back to the ECU. The ECU will be returned to you via the shipping method you selected at checkout.
  • For reference this ECU/TCU may identify as - Bosch ME17.8.

Product Notes:

If you install other parts on the vehicle that cause check engine lights when the car is flashed back to stock, you will need to address those mechanical parts to meet your local or state requirements.
  • All VR Tuned support is done via our Support Ticket System. If you need help Contact Us Here.

But most importantly, our product confidence comes in that we have owned these vehicles, daily driven these vehicles, raced these vehicles, and understand what the consumer is looking for. Our YouTube channel also features a host of videos showcasing our ECU and tuning products with before and after results as well as drive-by videos to demonstrate just how much more power and performance you can gain.
