I have a 05 400ex with pro circuit full system , k&n with outerwear , rev box and stage 2 jet kit . The Quad runs great but i still would like more power on top end , so what would be the best , a 416 bore , 426 or a 440. I mainly ride trails and go on very long rides , so with my type of riding and wanting top end power which one would be the best for my Quad and also which brand (wiseco or je)? Or maybe there is something else that could help out.

Well save up about $1000 or a little more and find a used 38-39 mm carb,hotcam-3, je piston,416 or 426 bore and a good port/polish.

oh and another thing. the stock carb. on the 05's are 38mm keihin. so if your gonna go bigger, go with a 39 or above.

Prolly the 440 but it's not that reliable.

i think i might go with the 416 cause ive heard that it would be the best for the longer rides but i would still like your opinions on what to buy

sell it and then buy a 450r and you will have a faster reliable quad.
