If it helps any, i pulled two 800 polaris's out of the mountains last year too...... There are lotsa dealer changeups that are to be done when engines redone....they are runnin' lean to make the most power, but running a bit too lean and burnin' 'em down

Can a guy run a Power Commander V with Auto Tune on the Polaris 800's?

I have a Power Commander 3 on mine with the Dynotech map, adds up to 20% more fuel in some midrange settings!!! I never did have any issues with mine but did it for the peace of mind, so far so good.

Trench:eek:

WTF is with polaris!!>>?? They are losing loyal polaris customers. I am adding oil in my tank every time i get gas. The goverment is setting a limit to how much oil the new sleds can burn.
