2008 800 mild mods

Hi there,
I am new to the forum and am hoping to get some information.
I have a 2008 800 that I have put the 2009 air box and intake manifold on. I have also opened the air box with additional holes with screens (can't remember brand). I put in a 650 helix and upgraded the primary spring to green/yellow.
I am happy with the performance that these mods gave me.
Should I be doing anything with regard to tuning or fuel mapping? I don't have much money to spend, so I can't get a monster ecu or anything.
My concern is that maybe it is running lean now and could damage the engine. Would I gain much in terms of performance by with tuning or fuel mapping.
Thanks.

LED Spot Lights On 1991 Trail Boss

I have an older trail boss and not happy with the headlight - not very bright. Someone said can't put LED's on these older machines without a bigger battery or low amp LED's. My question is - what is low amp? Found Cree Flood Work Lights on Amazon and they have the below specifications. Can I use on my machine without damaging charging system? I just replaced my battery and don't want another new one just yet.

Thanks!

Ngk bkr6e

Hey all! I know this has been posted before but I can't find the post now. I have a 2001 325 trail boss. I changed out the coil and now the NGK BKR6E wont work as the top does not screw off. I have tried my local Polaris dealer and found a substitute, but the body of the plug is bigger which makes it impossible to get a plug socket on it. Has anyone else had this issue? If so what plug did you use?

Bent Frame Advice Please

My son and I need some advice. We have a 2009 800 x renegade. And it lost a battle with a tree head on. Fortunately we were traveling very slow on a beginners trail learning the terrain and he’s ok. Anyway, the frame is bent most likely beyond recovery. Yet to be stripped down, but looks rough. QUESTION; can I use (used salvage) another year renegade frame and / or different engine size? In my parts research, I see part numbers matching from an 08’ 500 same part number as 09’ 800. Interesting and confusing. Help please.
