Hi, just wanted to start a thread for all the 400 owners out there. Any performance upgrades, problems and solutions are appreciated. I personally have a 400 ACT, 2003, with new 27" Bearclaws on it. Happy quadding!![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

I love my cat, I have about 80 miles on mine, mostly plowing. Just added 26" Mud Lites and love them too.

Hey rice, I was thinking of a jet kit for mine, I just put 27"s on it 12's in the back, 10's in the front. Did the jet kit make any noticeable difference? Do you still have your stock exhaust?

The kit made a huge difference! At the atv pulls i beat both my buddies 500's. We did an exebition pull just to see if i could beat them. All the other times i pulled in the 500 class without the kit they killed me. All i did was install the kit and cut most the foam off the air filter to get more air. I got to get a k&n before i go riding this year. Do you have a part # for the 55w halogen driving lights and have you had any problems with them drawing too much power.

Where did you get your jet kit?
How Much?
Do you know if the dial a jet works?

I didn't get the lights at the dealer, bought 'em at Walmart. I tried to attach them to my sig, but it didn't create a link, so I guess I'll have to figure out a way to get them up. I made a mount out of plexi glass, and well, it's hard to explain. I'll try to get the pics up for you. I think you'll like what I made. I haven't had any problems with the lights, I wired them through a relay, and they seem to work well. I think I'm going to try the jet kit route, any hints on dialing it in after installation??

Maybe just highlight the link under my sig, copy and paste it to your browser. I tried it and it worked for me. Hope you like the pics, Blue

Blue,
You shouldn't have to touch the kit once it is installed. All you have to do is install a new needle and a new main jet. I could get you one for around 60.00 shipped to your door. I have installed two of these into the ac 400 manuals. The first time took me about 2 1/2 hrs. the 2nd under two. Heres a link to one pic of my fourwheeler and my dog hopefully a few more will be on the way. http://f2.pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/mac...bum?.dir=/9de3

My wife and I have 2004 400i 4x4's and love them. We've got about 300 miles on them and so far, not a problem. I installed a 2500 Ramsey wireless winch on mine, but haven't had a chance to use it for anything yet (other than looking cool...). We've got soft luggage on the back racks, dual fender bags,and shovel racks on the front. We can't brag enough on them.
