What kind of toys are you looking for? Performance or other?

I put a $24 Dalton Blue primary spring in and very happy with it. It engages just a bit higher then stock, but pulls all the way to the top. The stock spring flattens out after about 30-35mph. So it gets to top speed faster then stock.

Dyno-jet Power Commander III, adds enough power to make it illegal under emission standards

I noticed under hard acceleration, it does seem to level off at about 35-40 and then aproach top speed slower, Im looking for more low-middle range gains, not concerened with a greater top speed, It will get a power controller when they come out, hopefully this month. is it a big job to instal the dalton spring?

The spring is very easy to install. If you don't have a service manual it would be one of your best investments. It goes right through how to do it. I feel the spring helps in the mid range because in just continues to pull with no flat spot. I did a speed test on my drive way. In the same distance I gained allmost 5mph from the stock spring to the blue. This right now is my best and cheapest investment.

how much is that spring. I read that Rick sells them. I am getting an 800 in 2weeks or less. So I may order the spring so I will have it when I get the quad. Does it hurt the bottom end at all? And the top end is the same. correct. Any updates would be nice.

GE 4x4, I have an 800 EFI that I just picked up - I noticed too that after around 40, it flattens out..... You say the spring alone gave you 5 mph more top end and harder acceleration all the way to the top ?..... What have you been getting for top speed so far ?..... I have 38 miles on mine now and I have only hit 63 so far....How many miles on yours-what are the stock weights in this thing ?....Does a K & N filter help out on this quad ?... ANyone else try anything different ?.... Sorry , I'm so full of questions but I think this being an 800 , this quad is capable of alot more performance in clutching alone...... I read about some other clutch setups from RMKCAC700 - If you read this RMK, how's the white spring -1064 weights-silver secondary run compared to stock ?? On my 800, I just put on the Mudlites from my 2000 ( Green ) Sportsman in my picture gallery and it raised my height another inch and widened the footprint - WHAT A BEAST !!.... I appreciate your responses and thanks in advance for all the input - This forum is great!!
