Thumbs up New to Ds450!

HI guys, today i picked up a 2008 ds450, about 40 hours in it, the ike is fully stock and im new to all the "efi", i was a trx450.
First i would like to know any tips to make this toy move faster with 0 engine mods, So far it had the pink wire cut, it was like that when i got it.

Any hrc kits?
Best exhaust?
powercomm? or any high recomended auto tunners?
any input would be nice,

Thank you!

Don't know what HRC is... maybe Honda Racing Components?!?!?!

Best exhaust cos benefit would be the Motoworks SRA G2 full system at $399, but if you want some more HP and dont care much about noise, and looks IMO get the Ron Woods kit!

Power commander you go with PC5 with the auto tune, but with just a pipe some will say that the pink wire is enough...
.
Also i highly recommend the BCS ring and filter, its just proven bolt on HP!

^^xxx2 agree on everything
g2 good bang for your buck
BCS ring great bang for your buck
pc3 should do it (save some $ over pc5 and auto-tune)
sprockets
cooling mods
buff right thumb

Suspension wise you should be good with XMX a-arms and shocks all arround, plus the axle of course to complete the 50" all arround width.

And the XMX axle is adjustable from 46" to 50", so if you are riding tighter places you can alwayas swap some spacers!

You should check out the clutch basket,I think the 08s basket is prone to self destruction,gas boil and overheating issues,all are easy fixes.Do a search,lots of good info on this site.
