Ronnie get a Danatek, and be done with it.
you will be happy. tons more power. and tried and true.
The fuel map crap is for guys that are going to mod
the crap out of it. witch you are not. you are like me. you want it
to be reliable. fuel map is only good if your going to get a pipe
or intake or go to a big bore like a 786. you are not going to do any
of those things. the danetek has the stock motor mapped well. lots
of bottom end and mid range. and i can still run 52 with 27 XTR's
and mine has a lot of bottom end. and i know thats what you want.
it just runs better. if you want to spend $500 for it you can. but for $220
you will get what you need and will be happy with. Wink This thing would really
haft to show me something special. before i spend $500 bucks on it.
i gained nearly 10 MPH and a ton of power from my ECU. i doubt the VDI
will do much more to a stock motor. now if it was built out the ass. it might be the way to go.... cheers

and if it comes to that. Danetek has a fuel map programer
that plugs right into my ECU. if i ever need it... allright

True, but if you get both pieces to the Dyantek, you are essentially spending the same money. The stock exhaust is fine for now, but eventually I will buy a hi-flo pipe and want to tune it with the VDI. That is the route I am going. I have never regretted buying the unit for the King Quad. I sold my Dyno Power Commander after a month. I could not even tell it was on there. Bolted in the VDI unit, my thing instantly had a snappy throttle. I can only hope the Rhino unit will help in the same way. Yes the VDI is twice what the ignition only piece of the Dyna is, but I know Lyle and he will continue to work and produce maps. He has been working on King maps for a year even after he released that unit. People just get happier and happier to get more performance. I have never had anything but the original map on my King, but right now the map out (5.3 I think) is supposed to be leaps and bounds over the one I have loaded. Will wait till I get back and see.

LT , a Rhino is totaly different than a little Quad. I say little cause the biggest baddest quad in the world a renagade 800 outlander weighs 700 pounds.
a rhino weighs 1200 pounds. if you put a pipe on a rhino you will loose bottom end. it is without question. I thought you were a woods rider? is this really what you want? Wink Dont listen to the sand guys. there not in our world.
thay blast off in a strate line in the desert. in the woods you want bottom and mid range. and a pipe will take away from that.
Trust me. mapping the fuel up , witch is simaler to makeing it richer with pipe and intake. will increase top end. but you loose bottom.

back pressure that is leaner and cleaner has more bottom end.
and a little less top end. but for a rhino this is fine. thay were just
a little to lean from the factory. the denatek bumps the internal mapping . and corrects this.
and bumps the timeing a bit. and thats all a stock motor needs.

Chris.... allright

True, I am a woods rider. But I like to go fast while in the woods when I can. I don't doubt what you are saying, I just think that I am going to go with the VDI and possibly a pipe in the future. I have not really looked into pipes yet, just toying with future ideas. I definitely don't want to lose alot on the bottom, but I would like to get a little more top end. I have a clutch sheave and with the VDI should be just about where I want it. Pipe would maybe just be icing on the cake somewhere down the road. I think I will be happy with the clutch and VDI though.

LT , i understand what your saying. and there is nothing wrong with the VDI ECU
if thats what you want. But here is what i am saying. a pipe will hurt a rhino more than help it.
you want to go fast in the woods. ok thats fine. my Rhino right now runs
52 MPH it takes a bit to get there. my clutch is stock. with sheeve it would
most likely go pretty close to 60 with a little smaller tire i know it would..
Now , at winrock me and Marty was playing and we raced on a gravel road
with a shallow turn. we got up to maybe 35 or 40 or so. and it was a hand
full at our finish thay were skateing a bit.... :D
All i am saying is in the woods 35 to 45 is flying.
you will not do that hardly ever unless on a gravel road or something.
unless you are like pate and others that race.
so i would want to keep as much bottom end as i could. and not worry
so much about the top. because any Rhino that has alot of top end take a while
to get strung out.
after many years of building 1500 HP race motors for outlaw drag cars.
i can tell you i have raced everything from cars to motor cycles.
and you cant have both. you can only set something up to do one of 2 things.
topend or bottom end. you cant have both. to get one. you got to give a little
of the other.
But you do what you think works for you. i am just trying to explain.
how it works...... Wink

You are right. I don't want a gutless wonder in low. A pipe is just a thought. It makes perfect sense what you are saying. I do want to give Lyle and VDI a shot. He did not disappoint me with my King Quad. The clutch kit is going to be the last thing. I want to see what the ECU does first. If it does what I want then I will most likely get rid of the clutch kit because everyone seems to think that the factory sheave is the way to go. The clutch kit I guess is more for those who want to try and hit 60mph. I don't care anything about that in the Rhino. I would be happy getting up over 50 and maybe hitting 55mph.

You should have no problem with that LT. i can run 52 now with the denatek.
with 27 mudlites. granted it takes a bit to get there. my sheeve is stock.
and i think its going to stay that way. Highlifter guys seem to think the stock cluch
on a 700 is the best one for the woods.
but my bottom end is off the hook. in low i can pull up anything with no trouble.
much better than when stock with stock 25's . so i am happy.
My sheeve is stock and so is marty's and he has had many trouble free miles.
and to be honist reliability for a woods machine. this is important to me.
i have been over 200 MPH in a drag car. in a Rhino i just want to go deep
in the woods and want it to bring me home. :D to me thats why people choose
a Rhino over other brands. cause its proven to be the most reliable machine over the
years. i dont want to do to much to take away from that..... cheers

I hear ya. The only way I would like to be stranded back in the woods is if I have lots of food, beer, and my old lady. Other than that, I want to be able to get back to the truck. Clutch kit may go out the window like I said......just have to wait and see.

I have a 700 with intake, exhaust, bored throttle body, dynatek ecu and fuel programmer, sheave and a stage 2 hot cam. The only mod that reduced any noticeable performance was the hot cam. My buddy who has everything that I do except cam can get 1/2rhino lenght from a dead start. I pass him around 30 and never stop gaining till we hit top speed. before the cam we ran even.

My first mod was dual exhaust and it was faster across the board.

I am considering the velocity ecu because I have ran out of fuel in the top end. It allows you to use a fuel injector with more flow and better fuel atomization.

If you compare the features of dynatek and velocity you will see that it would cost 450.00 or better for the dynatek to do what the VP does. As said before if you are stock and want the rev limit gone dynatek is best option. If you need to adjust fuel take your pick between the two.

FYI, After saying that you can program mulitple dynatek ecu's with one fuel controller. Me and a bud split the cost to save money. The ecu remebers the program even if it loses battery power.

Also this is my first post. Hello

Howdy Glider,

I am not going to mod out my rhino to the extent you have. Therefore, I can not see myself paying 500 bucks for the Velocity... 2cents

welcome

that is pretty cool.....i may be interested in something like that.....anybody else thinking about getting the programmer?

Thats what we should do Rub . get about 3 or 4 people together that
has 700's and Daneteks and chip in and get a programmer and share it around.
then we would not have but a few bucks in it...... cheers

The only thing is. i dont know what it will help me. mine screems
and is trouble free. go's fast enough on top end for me. and my bottom
is sweet

Sweet Bottom end------> Butt

Chris... cheers
