So I’ve ran my renli for 4-5 years now and have heard of guys throwing a Chevy cobalt ss motors in the buggy.. but I was thinking more like dropping a Subaru wrx or even a vw 1.8t in it.. anyone done anything major to their Renlis yet.. I’m not afraid of a project.. that’s the best thing about these buggies is that you can literally strap/bolt/weld whatever you want onto them to keep them running.. see lots of guys worried about ordering parts for these things and waiting for months In order to do so.. which I find stupid on how easy these things are too upkeep/modify.. but I’m still suprised years into owning this renli and online I’m not finding any forums or anything to much on mod’ing them or swapping or custom builds.. cheers to Jack cecil on YouTube for being only guy to post some vids on his renli build.. but these things have serious potential to be something awesome and at half or more the cost of buying a north American sxs.. and way easier to build and maintain. It’d be awesome to get a bigger and better online community/forum for these fun buggies.
ill post some pics of my adventure build over the years to my renli and hope to see some more renli owners/enthusiasts do the same! Thanks and cheers

      Major Cabin Intake Noise Reduction
      By Blair
      Most of us complain about the ridiculous noise in the cabin. My wife likes to ride but the noise is a major downer. You can’t even have a conversation without shouting at each other. Well, I manage to reduce the cabin noise by approx 200%!

      I addressed the intake that is poorly placed right between the driver and passenger. First, I cut the air filter inlet pipe in half (pic 1). I then reinstalled it upside down (pic 2). I then attached a flexible intake tube (pic 3) and directed it behind the cabin (pic 4). Major difference.
       
      Then I covered the interior engine cover with Dynamat extreme and then 200 mil Chaogang sound deadener / heat shield mat on top of that (pic 5). Since I cut off the intake and redirected it, I completely closed off the intake (engine fence) so no engine noise can come thru (pic 6). It also reduced the heat approx 50%. I did leave on the heat mat that came stock on the engine cover, so it has 3 different mats. It was a snug fit. Major difference again.

      My wife rides all the time now since we can have a conversation when we ride. Major improvement to my riding experience. Thought you might like to check it out.

      Havoc VS Stampede Motors
      By Jon W
      looking around and cannot find and Stampede motors, the Havoc looks to directly bolt in, with exception of the larger displacment. has anyone looked into this further? seems to be a better option considering stampede engines are on backorder.

      Help needed, Anyone recognize where this Internally Threaded Bolt belongs?
      By SouthernGypsy
      We have a 2018 Cub Cadet Challenger 400 and I found this Internally Threaded Bolt with a 10mm head size laying in the floor of the shop bay here on our ranch where we park the Cub Cadet.
      Trying to figure out where it belongs...
