X3 KWI X TAPP
KWI x TAPP
OEM clutches with KWI upgrades can handle up to 38Psi of boost, but any additional power can cause big, expensive problems. We didn’t think that was enough power, so we fixed it. We’ve teamed up with TAPP clutch to engineer the ULTIMATE fix to your high horsepower clutching and crankshaft problems. Say goodbye to crankshaft damage and complex tuning limitations, and say hello to the KWI TAPP Clutch.
** TAPP REQUIRES USE OF OEM PRIMARY BOLT ONLY**
We DO NOT RECOMMEND the KWI+TAPP clutch for any application under 300 Wheel HP as the KWI modified OEM PDrive and QRSX clutches perform much better and are more reliable.
***The KWI+TAPP clutch is set up with a rough baseline for your car and is an advanced clutch that will require some tuning expertise.- the customer WILL need to do their own tuning on the clutch for their specific car. We will assist in tuning, but in the end, it is the customer’s responsibility to make final adjustments***
*** KWI CRANKLOCK MOD REQUIRES YOU TO SEND IN YOUR CRANKSHAFT FOR MODIFICATION. ADDITIONAL SHIPPING CHARGES MAY APPLY.
*** ONLY GROUND SHIPPING IS AVAILABLE FOR THIS ITEM. NO EXPEDITED SHIPPING IS AVAILABLE.
KWI TAPP CLUTCH SOLVES THESE PROBLEMS:
- STOCK CAN-AM X3 PRIMARY CLUTCH GOVERNOR CUP TAPER CAN ONLY HOLD 400 HP (38PSI OF BOOST) BEFORE IT WILL SLIP AND DESTROYS THE CLUTCH. THIS IS EVEN MORE OF A PROBLEM WITH LAUNCH CONTROL.
- STOCK CAN-AM X3 PRIMARY CLUTCH CRANKSHAFT TAPER CAN ONLY HOLD 450 HP (45PSI OF BOOST) BEFORE IT WILL SLIP AND DESTROY YOUR CLUTCH AND CRANKSHAFT. THIS IS EVEN MORE OF A PROBLEM WITH LAUNCH CONTROL.
- CANNOT EASILY CHANGE ENGAGEMENT RPMS OR ADJUST SHIFT RPM FOR DIFFERENT CONDITIONS.
- STOCK CAN-AM CLUTCH IS NOT VERY ATTRACTIVE
- EXISTING BILLET CLUTCH TIE BRACES ARE BULKY, CUMBERSOME, AND MAKE CHANGING THE DRIVE BELT A PAIN.
- THE NEED FOR AN ATTRACTIVE, STRONG INTEGRATED SCATTER SHIELD FOR PROTECTION FROM BELT FAILURE

TUNING THE KWI TAPP CLUTCH:
FLIPPING THE RAMPS
THE KWI TAPP PRIMARY CLUTCH COMES EQUIPPED WITH FOUR RAMPS WHICH CAN BE FLIPPED IN OPPOSING PAIRS. FLIPPING THE RAMPS FROM POSITION A TO POSITION B WILL RAISE ENGAGEMENT AND PULL DOWN THE RPM. FOR CRUISING AND DAILY USE, USE SIDE A, FOR RACING, USE SIDE B.
ADJUSTING THE RAMP ANGLE
YOU CAN ADJUST THE RAMP ANGLE BY ADJUSTING THE CLICKER STYLE BOLTS. THE HIGHER THE NUMBER, THE HIGHER THE RPM. ADJUSTMENTS MADE TO THE CLICKERS MUST BE DONE IN OPPOSING PAIRS TO KEEP THE CLUTCH IN BALANCE. FOR EXAMPLE, ONE SET OF OPPOSING PAIRS CAN BE SET TO TWO, WHILE THE OTHER SET OF OPPOSING PAIRS CAN BE SET TO SIX.
WEIGHT ADJUSTMENTS
YOU CAN ALSO ADJUST THE RPM BY ADDING OR REMOVING ALLEN WEIGHT SCREWS AND WASHERS. REDUCING WEIGHT WILL INCREASE RPM AND ADDING WEIGHT WILL DECREASE RPM. WEIGHT MUST BE ADDED IN OPPOSING PAIRS TO KEEP THE CLUTCH BALANCED.
