I was wondering if there was any easy conversion out they're that someone had done to change it the motor and trans to like maybe a chevy motor or something where parts are easier to come by and cheaper.

Did you say easy? Is there such a thing on a motor and tranny conversion?

I have caught wind of a few members starting a possible swap, but then they die of old age before it's done.

You need to find a fwd car with a really low first gear, I can't think of any, then weld the differential together so they are locked. I think finding a motor the right size with a low first gear is the hardest part.

Keep us posted if you find anything. I will do the swap myself if we find the right set up.

I just joined the form today and I've been looking at engine swaps for my t2 trooper.. I live in Indiana and the Joyner is geared great for the type of riding I do.. But the cherry motor doesn't have no where near enough power..mine is really low on compression too.. I want to stay with same 5 speed tranny.. A friend of mine gave me a d16z6 Honda civic motor.. 125hp stock..

The trooper will carbon up causing low compression. Have you pulled the plugs and put a few ounces of marvel mystery oil in the cylinders overnight? I had low compression on a cylinder, put 2 ounces in it for a few days and it came back. Also you may want to run some in the fuel and oil sometimes. Not sure if your interested in doing so but might be alternative to engine swap. I've also put a turbo on mine, plenty of power.

What are you using for fuel tuner?

I am running a Mallory fuel pressure regulator (PN MAA-4305M) for supercharger and turbo applications from Summit Racing. Just run vacuum to it from the intake manifold. I pipe it in with some fittings from local hardware store. I also have a gauge on the regulator from Summit (PN SUM-800199), dual fuel pumps from parts store running in parallel, they are AIRTEX E2000 pumps, you can cross the E2000 with Carter, Bosch, spectre, etc. I like these pumps because they have a lifetime guarantee and I run in mud and water, so when they fail I can run to the local parts store and grab another. Changed the fuel filter out to a 1997 Chevy Z71 filter, once a gain for easy replacement. Not sure if it was necessary but I removed my fuel cell and had a local weld shop put half inch bungs in the supply and return ports of the cell (I don't have aluminum welding capabilities) and run half inch supply line to pumps. 100 octane LL fuel.

Sorry haven't been on here in awhile.. been really busy with the Joyner..I looked very low compression in every cylinder..I looked around online and found a auto parts online store in China.. they sell all kinds of parts for the Joyner motors..[ sqr472 ].. I ordered everything the I needed.. new rings,gasket set,rod and main bearings,new oil pump. I got everything for about $100 US with shipping..!! I overhaul the motor once I got everything and it still didn't have enough power...!!!!i then ordered a cheap t3 turbo off eBay ..I got it put on and modified the stock header  to mount the turbo..I bought a universal fuel / timing control off eBay . ( it's a piggyback ecu..) still been trying to get that all hooked up and I'm waiting on some an fittings to come in for the oil cooler for the turbo..

Posted

What kind of piggyback tuner ,I've been using a EJK from dolbeck for about $250

Seems to do the trick but can't control timing .

If your efi remember to defeat the map sensor or else the ecu will shut off fuel when map sees boost 

Posted

its universal aem fuel/ ignition controller. Came with software and all for around $300 off eBay. But you have to splice into you harness at the fuel injectors,map sensor, and cam sensor,and 02 sensors.. or buy another adapter harness for another $500..then u plug it into a laptop and use aem software to tune.. I really want to run the aem controller.. but there's a lot to it and instructions only tell you so much and still tryin to figure it all out.. I also think of just buying the ejk dubeck fuel controller you have instead..do you order it from them or silver bullet..?? They told silver bullet version is more suited for a turbo..

Posted

Yes Silverbullets is the same tuner ,I liked this tuner because it's a 5 min install ,no wire splicing and such 

I belive that with the 6-7 psi I'm running not to worried about retarding timing,

Any ideas on that ?

But if you use that tuner, diode your map sensor and use o2 simulator to fool stock o2 sensor

It was a night and day difference. I don't have any numbers as far as HP and Torque. With my 28" tires on the pavement mine begins to pull the front end when it boosts. The front passenger tire will leave the ground a few inches in 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. Right now I have 30" super ATV intimidators on the buggy that are actually 32" tall. It doesn't pull the tires with those on it but it will go anywhere I want to go with authority, just drive it on the aggressive side.

What year is your Joyner trooper..?? Mines a 09.. before with the low compression i was lucky to see 40mph to 45mph if I was lucky.. with the 5 speed.. don't know yet about the turbo..?? Did u put the cvt in yours..??

Posted

The 5 speeds have gear reduction.. very low geared.. granny 1st..  like maybe 10-12 mph in 1st.. I like how it's geared.. for around here.. I trail ride and do a lot of hill climbing.!!!! motor was just way under powered..

Posted

It really does take a lot of guess work out of the equation ,you can tune in matter of minutes,I have a hummer on nitrous ,rambler on supercharger and my komodo 1100 on turbo they all have a gauge

      As I tried to do a conversion with the Yamaha 660 motor, I realized the 660 was never fuel injected so it would not work for the fuel injected hisun motor swap. But the good thing is the hisun 750 motor is a clone of the 660 Yamaha but with the components for the fuel injection (cam/crank position sensor). So that left me with a new rebuilt Yamaha 660 and still a broke 750 hisun motor. I took apart 750 think the timing chain had broke from all that I've heard about these motors. The chain was not broke, but just off cam and crank gears! The chain tensioner was at fault!  I've ordered Yamaha 660 replacement parts, chain, two exhaust valves (which got bent when chain came off while motor was spinning) and seals. The piston has 2 little nicks where it had hit valves but no damage otherwise. The head is being redone at the machine shop and I'll be putting it back together in the next couple of weeks. Also I finally tracked down a Service Manual with all the info on the 550/750 Challenger.

      My buddy has a ut400 that the forward gear keeps popping out of gear. She only has like 400 miles on the odometer .the shift cable has been adjusted and the shift lever has been updated / modified. All other gears are good. Is there an internal detent cam or something that wears out or shift fork that can be replaced ? Or is there some other magic that I can perform ? Looks like the engine needs to be split.

      Hello, All!  I've decided to replace the traction batteries in my 2018 Sector E1 with a 48V Lithium set. They may be expensive, but I figure the Discovery Dry Cell are, too. I am not looking for the max driving range, as I have never received near the brochured range to begin with, but a good mix of charge/ get work done/ charge is what I am expecting.
      I have settled on the 48V EAGL kit from bigbattery dot com. Each battery pack provides 30Ah. The kit ships with a charger, as well. The packs would be physically connected in parallel (using a busbar) to one another, maintaining the 48V voltage, but together would be able to provide the amp draw the buggy pulls when going up hill or towing a rake (rated 320 max continuous Amps). This is in comparison to the serial connection the eight 6V lead batteries. Each of the EAGL batteries looks to have its own BMS; am I correct in thinking I will have to use their included charger rather than (simply) changing the onboard charger to lithium mode? The chemistry of the pack is LiFe PO4, for what it's worth.  I haven't torn anything apart yet (to diagram), so  I am not sure how the dash will interpret the AMP draw, but the kit I am looking at includes a dash mounted charge indicator.
      If anyone has completed a similar conversion, do you have any tips? Specifically, how did you remove the original batteries, and how did you secure the new ones? I am guessing that almost any change from the stock batteries would involve at least some modifications. Any tips would be appreciated, especially things I may have failed to consider. Thanks!

      Pics are the original orange when purchased and after painting with a textured bed liner type coating.
