I put a .04 timing advance in my wifes 06 800 and it seems to rev faster.  I like the mod.  Cheap as well.  If interested I have a .02 and a .03 advance key I will sell ya cheap.  I have heard of a .05 doing well but they are hard to come by most of the time.

I posted this mod a few years ago,,,
http://www.highlifter.com/forum/m_1032445/mpage_1/key_key/tm.htm#1032445

Others have taken the mod and put it a better/easier format then I ever could.
http://atvposters.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/7331042/m/935105147

I'm running a 0.050 key in mine...

Just be carefull when you pull your magneto off.

This should get you going in the right derection for your 800.

I had the .030 key. It made the bike rev faster. A guy on quadsquad tested a bunch of them and the .030 seemed to work the best. The others were either too close to the stock key or they advanced the timing too much and made it feel slow.

So what is everyone elses opinion about this?

Firemedic- Do you like your .050 key? Have you had the .030 key before?

I was the 1st to post about the timing key advance mod. I origanly had the 0.030 key mod, then went to the 0.050 mod once TT started making them.... From my seat of the pance feel, I think I gained power, low end at least, from advancing the timing more.
